The Chicago White Sox traded outfielder Austin Slater to the New York Yankees in exchange for minor-league right-hander Gage Ziehl. Slater, who is hitting .236 with five home runs this season, has excelled against left-handed pitchers, while Ziehl, a 22-year-old drafted in 2024, has a 4.15 ERA in the minors; this move is part of the Yankees’ efforts to strengthen their roster amid injuries, including that of captain Aaron Judge.
