Yankees face struggles after trade deadline moves with Garcia and Ramos

The New York Yankees' acquisitions of Luis Garcia Jr. and Heliot Ramos during the MLB trade deadline have not produced expected results. Garcia has struggled with a.238/.283/.381 slash line after a strong start, while Ramos has only three hits in 42 plate appearances, all doubles. The trades have not addressed significant needs at second base and catcher, creating a roster logjam ahead of the anticipated returns of Giancarlo Stanton, Cody Bellinger, and Aaron Judge next month. Questions arise regarding the strategy behind these moves as the team aims to rebound before the playoffs.
