Yankees Acquire OF Heliot Ramos from Giants

The Yankees are adding another bat to their lineup, agreeing to a deal for the 26-year-old Ramos, who is hitting .264 with a .728 OPS, nine home runs and 34 RBIs in 74 games this season. The move comes a day after New York acquired first baseman Luis Garcia from the Washington Nationals as the team seeks offensive upgrades amid Aaron Judge's injury.

Ramos, who was an All-Star in 2024, hit 43 total homers in the previous two seasons. Despite their offensive struggles, the Yankees remain in contention at 63-49, just 2.5 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East race. ipltable.lol
