NEW YORK (AP) — Third baseman Ryan McMahon was set to make his New York Yankees debut Saturday, batting eighth against Philadelphia.

New York acquired the 2024 All-Star from Colorado on Friday for a pair of 22-year-old pitchers in the low minors, right-hander Josh Grosz and left-hander Griffin Herring.

McMahon, 30, was hitting .217 with 16 home runs and 35 RBIs for last-place Colorado. His 127 strikeouts trailed only the 138 of Detroit’s Riley Greene, but McMahon was hitting .300 with three homers and seven RBIs in six games following the All-Star break.
