The New York Yankees send Zach McAllister to the Indians
The Yankees have sent 22-year old righty starting pitcher Zach McAllister to the Indians to complete the Austin Kearns trade. McAllister came into this season as the Yankees’ #5 prospect according to Baseball America but he has not pitched well at all this year. McAllister pitched in 24 games (all starts) in AAA-ball for the Yankees this year and he was 8-10 with a 5.09 ERA and a 1.53 WHIP. He finished his minor league career with the Yankees having pitched in 98 games (86 starts) in five years and he was 38-32 with 1 save, a 3.40 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. Austin Kearns better continue to play well for the Yankees or they might regret trading McAllister down the road.
