The New York Yankees made some strategic moves at the trade deadline on Tuesday evening. They brought in Keynan Middleton from the Chicago White Sox and Spencer Howard from the Texas Rangers (via Robert Murray of Fansided). Both additions are bullpen pitchers who could potentially strengthen the Yankees’ defensive play.
Middleton has had a promising season, recording a 3.96 ERA across 36.1 innings. Howard, on the other hand, has posted a 10.80 ERA over 3.1 innings.
Introducing Spencer Howard
Howard, a 27-year-old former top prospect, has experienced a turbulent career punctuated by frequent injuries.
