New York Yankees acquire outfielder Heliot Ramos from San Francisco Giants

Heliot Ramos New York Yankees San Francisco Giants trade deadline Henry Lalane

The New York Yankees completed a deadline‑day trade to acquire 2024 All‑Star outfielder Heliot Ramos from the San Francisco Giants. In exchange, the Giants received left‑handed pitching prospect Henry Lalane and shortstop Kaeden Kent, both top prospects in the Yankees system. Ramos, a right‑handed hitter who excels against left‑handed pitching, entered the trade with a .279/.345/.501 career slash line versus lefties and was under team control through the 2029 season. The deal was reported by ESPN, MLB.com and The Athletic and was finalized within minutes of the deadline. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman pursued the trade to address offensive shortfalls caused by injuries to Aaron Judge and Cody Bellinger, adding a middle‑of‑order bat for the stretch run. Ramos will join a Yankees roster that hopes to improve its OPS and run production as it contends for the American League East title.
