An MLB expert suggests the New York Yankees pursue relievers Adrian Morejon and Jeremiah Estrada from the San Diego Padres. As the Yankees aim to strengthen their bullpen ahead of the Aug. 3 trade deadline, both relievers could be more affordable than All-Star Mason Miller. The Yankees currently hold the second-best record in the American League, trailing the Tampa Bay Rays. The Padres, likely to become sellers soon, have depth in their bullpen but are struggling in other areas.
- •Yankees own the second-best record in the AL.
- •Padres expected to sell off players before the trade deadline.
- •Morejon has a 3.46 ERA and 59 strikeouts this season.
- •Estrada has a 3.48 ERA with 23 strikeouts in 20.2 innings.
- •Yankees could offer Will Warren or Jasson Dominguez for a trade.
