Carlos Carrasco has been traded from the New York Yankees to the Atlanta Braves, following injuries that left Atlanta's rotation depleted. The Braves recently placed Grant Holmes on the 60-day injured list due to elbow inflammation, which has affected all five of their starting pitchers. Carrasco struggled in New York, posting a 5.91 ERA over eight games, but had a solid minor league stint before the trade. This represents the Yankees' third trade in a short span as they seek to retool their roster. Carrasco's past accolades include leading the American League in wins in 2017 and winning the AL Comeback Player of the Year in 2019 after recovering from leukemia.
