Yankees explore trade options, including Joey Bart from Pirates

The New York Yankees are actively seeking trade options as they approach the deadline, with a focus on finding a right-handed hitting catcher. Among potential targets is Joey Bart of the Pittsburgh Pirates, who has shown promise after struggling with the San Francisco Giants. Bart is currently on the injured list but is expected to participate in a rehab assignment soon. The Yankees have been linked to Bart, as well as other catchers like Ryan Jeffers of the Twins and Agustín Ramírez of the Marlins. The urgency for New York is heightened due to their current roster needs and the approaching trade deadline.
