J.A. Happ Reportedly Traded to Yankees by Blue Jays

As the Toronto Blue Jays start looking toward the future, they reportedly traded starting pitcher J.A. Happ to the New York Yankees on Thursday.

MLB Network's Jon Morosi first reported the Yankees and Blue Jays had an agreement in place for Happ. According to Jon Heyman of Fancred and Mark Feinsand of MLB.com, New York will send infielder Brandon Drury and outfield prospect Billy McKinney to Toronto.

Now in his 12th MLB season, Happ has struggled leading up to the trade deadline. After posting a 3.48 ERA through his first 14 starts, the 35-year-old has given up 21 earned runs and seven homers in 31.
