The New York Yankees are considering a trade for left-handed pitcher Reid Detmers of the Los Angeles Angels before the upcoming deadline. Detmers, 27, is under team control for two more seasons and has shown improvement this year, posting a 3.27 FIP and 3.0 fWAR in 120 innings. The Yankees are interested in enhancing their rotation and bullpen options, with Detmers’ breaking pitches standing out as a key asset.
