The game may have been postponed due to rain, but the front office evidently didn’t take the day off, as the New York Yankees acquired speedy outfielder Tim Locastro from the Arizona Diamondbacks. According to Lindsey Adler of The Athletic, who broke the story, the Yankees will be sending Double-A pitcher Keegan Curtis to the Diamondbacks as part of the exchange.
With Aaron Hicks out for the season and Brett Gardner struggling, many have expected the Yankees to pounce on a center fielder at the earliest possible opportunity, and the Diamondbacks have often been highlighted as a potential trade partner for the Yankees.
