Dodgers Acquire Joey Gallo in Trade With Yankees, per Report

The Dodgers are acquiring outfielder Joey Gallo from the Yankees in exchange for right-handed pitcher Clayton Beeter, as first reported by Pat Ragazzo of Inside the Mets.

Multiple reports confirmed the deal, paving the way for Gallo to swap out his Yankee pinstripes for Dodger blue.

Gallo will depart the Bronx after spending just over a year with the Yankees following an All-Star caliber stint with the Rangers to start the 2021 season. The 28-year-old lefty slugger arrived in New York last July via trade with hefty expectations placed upon him, but never quite lived up to the billing.
