The New York Yankees are actively exploring potential trades as the MLB deadline approaches, eyeing five players from the Pittsburgh Pirates. Among these prospects is Ke'Bryan Hayes, who would strategically address the Yankees' third base vacancy. While the Yankees consider alternatives like Eugenio Suárez and Ryan McMahon, Hayes presents a significant upgrade. Additionally, they are interested in acquiring hard-throwing relievers David Bednar and Dennis Santana, as well as the promising starter Mitch Keller. Former Yankees utility player Isiah Kiner-Falefa is also on their radar as a versatile option. The likelihood of completing multiple trades is slim, but at least one deal with the Pirates seems plausible.
