New York Yankees Trade For Kansas City Royals Outfielder Andrew BenintendiBefore their second game of the week against Mets last night, it was reported that the New York Yankees acquired left fielder from the Royals in exchange for three minor league prospects. This season, Benintendi was voted into the All-Star game, with a career-high BA of .320. One of the main reasons for the Yankees to bring in another outfielder has been the horrific play of in 2022. For 230 ABs this season, Gallo has produced just 37 hits. The former Red Sox and Royals outfielder literally has a batting average (.320) that is two times better than Gallo’s (.161 BA).
