The Yankees have a deal to acquire left-handed reliever Caleb Ferguson in a trade with the Dodgers, a source told MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand on Monday. New York is sending lefty Matt Gage back to Los Angeles as part of the trade, per a source. The teams have not confirmed the move.
Ferguson, 27, posted a 3.43 ERA with 70 strikeouts and a 1.44 WHIP in 60 1/3 innings for Los Angeles last year. He tied for the Dodgers team lead with 68 appearances, including seven starts as a one-inning opener. He averaged 95.8 mph on his four-seam fastball, a career high, and he ranked in the 97th percentile in MLB with a 3% barrel rate.
Gage, 30, was recently claimed by the Yankees off waivers from the Astros, and he spent most of the 2023 season with Triple-A Sugar Land.
