Yanks Got Their Third Baseman!
Stop the presses — or at least pause your daily despair scroll through Yankees Twitter. The Bronx Bombers actually made a trade that might not make you throw your remote through the nearest flat screen.
The Yankees are acquiring third baseman Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies, per MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand. In exchange, the Rockies get a pair of pitching prospects — lefty Griffin Herring and righty Josh Grosz.
Now, let’s get this out of the way: McMahon can field. Like, actually field. He’s been a National League Gold Glove finalist three years running — 2022, 2023, and 2024 — and is basically penciled in for another finalist nod in 2025. He’s sporting a slick .978 fielding percentage through 100 games this year, which is impressive until you remember… he also led the National League in errors at third base last season with 15.
So yes, McMahon is technically elite with the glove — but apparently, he likes to keep things interesting with the occasional airmailed throw into the stands.
And let’s be real: with Aaron Boone managing this team like a guy who skipped “Defense 101” and instead teaches a masterclass called “Trust Your Gut and Ignore the Fundamentals”, there’s reason to worry. The left side of the infield — now featuring Anthony “I’m Still Learning” Volpe and McMahon is going to need divine intervention, or at least a full-time therapist for Gerrit Cole. Let’s hope the errors on the left side of the field stop.
Still, let’s give this move some credit. It could’ve been worse. The Yankees could’ve gone dumpster diving and walked away with Eugenio Suárez, whose glove is basically a fancy oven mitt. So yes — in the kingdom of blind infielders, McMahon is the one-eyed man.
The Yankees front office, led by Brian “I Still Have a Job Somehow” Cashman, can pat themselves on the back for now. They didn’t solve their offensive woes, they didn’t figure out the future, and they certainly didn’t fix the Volpe development disaster — but hey, they found a guy who at least knows how to stand at third base and not trip over it.
Small victories, folks. Small victories.

Can’t hit and can’t throw. Sounds like another Volpe. More stink that should fit right in with the rest of the minor leaguers in the infileld.
