Yankees Acquire Frankie Montas and Lou Trivino in Big MLB Trade

The New York Yankees acquired starter Frankie Montas and Lou Trivino from the Athletics.

instead, the Athletics will receive pitchers JP Sears, Ken Waldychuk, and Luis Medina, and second baseman Cooper Bowman.

After Luis Castillo and Tyler Mahle, Montas appeared to be one of the better starting pitchers available at the trade deadline.

The New York Yankees were linked to Castillo, but he was recently traded to the Mariners. 

The Yanks turned their attention to Montas in order to satisfy their desire to bolster their rotation.

Montas has been a solid member of Oakland’s rotation for years, establishing himself in 2018.
