The wizardry of New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman continues.
The Samwell Tarly of Major League Baseball did it again on Monday.
After completing the long-awaited Sonny Gray deal with the Cincinnati Reds, he flipped the return for a completely different, unexpected prospect.
The initial deal saw the Yankees trade Gray to the Reds for second baseman Shed Long. The baseball wizard immediately flipped Long to the Seattle Mariners for outfield prospect Josh Stowers.
We all the know the Sonny Gray story. The 29-year-old righty was acquired from the Oakland Athletics during the 2017 season.
