Former Yankees reliever DFA'd by Blue Jays after in-division trade that hurts NYY

As the New York Yankees continue to navigate their next trade deadline moves, one of their division rivals got stronger on Tuesday. The Toronto Blue Jays received some bullpen help from within the AL East.

The Baltimore Orioles traded Seranthony Dominguez north of the border in exchange for the Jays' No. 10 prospect, Juaron Watts-Brown. When the move became official, a former Yankees reliever was revealed to be a roster casualty.

Chad Green was designated for assignment to make room for Dominguez, and oh boy was it long overdue before he succumbed to his fate.
