The Yankees made a much-needed splash at the trade deadline when they acquired Athletics right-hander Frankie Montas.

The Yankees have acquired Montas and Trivino from Oakland.

The Yankees are sending LHP Ken Waldichuk (No. 5 NYY prospect per @MLBPipeline), RHP Luis Medina (No. 10), LHP J.P. Sears (No. 20) and 2B Cooper Bowman (No. 21) to Oakland for Montas and Trivino, per source. @JackCurryYES was first with the return.

Montas should join the rotation immediately as the Yankees manage some tired arms for the stretch run.
