Yankees Under Pressure Ahead of Trade Deadline

As the July 30 trade deadline approaches, the New York Yankees are under pressure to bolster their roster following a disappointing 10-21 record since mid-season. Key players Juan Soto and Aaron Judge have showcased their potential, yet the team's overall performance has suffered due to injuries, particularly to Giancarlo Stanton. Analysts suggest the Yankees should focus on improving their bullpen and addressing offensive gaps at third and second base. Potential targets include Garrett Crochet from the White Sox and Ryan McMahon from the Rockies. Meanwhile, the Mets also seek to enhance their roster as they remain in Wild Card contention, emphasizing the competitive nature of the upcoming Subway Series. Both teams recognize that their performance in this pivotal series could influence their trade strategies and playoff aspirations.
