MLP: The Yankees get Anthony Rizzo from the Cubs

After the acquisition of Joey Gallo on Wednesday, the New York Yankees added another strong left-handed striker with their hands on Anthony Risso, the first captain of the Chicago Cups.

In response, the Yankees gave up two hopes: outfielder Kevin Alcondara and right-handed pitcher Alexander Wiscino. The Cubs agreed to pay Risso’s full salary.

With Galo and Risso, the Yankees can diversify their attacking character, which is especially well-suited for right-handed strikers. The gap to be filled is very important considering the close fence on the right side at Yankee Stadium.

Rizo, annoyed by a back injury at the start of this season, hit 248 in 2021 with 14 homers and 40 RBIs. He has a good goal attendance rate.346.

The 31-year-old has been shining with cubs since 2012. He helped the club win the World Series in 2016.

A star player from 2014 to 2016, Risso did not play against the Reds on Thursday.

He pockets $ 16.5 million this year and could become a free agent after the season.

Their Boston rivals are also improving

For their part, the Boston Red Sox added a power hitter by adding Washington Nationals outfielder Kyle Schwartz to their list.

Swarovski was the third-biggest player to be traded by Nats on Thursday, after cheese pitcher Max Scherzer and star shortstop Treya Turner.

Schwartz, who was selected to the All-Star Games this season, has 25 home runs and 53 Reserve Banks on his record, with a batting average of .233.

Danny Duffy with the Dodgers

Los Angeles Dodgers Kansas City Royals left hand holder Danny Duffy.
