Tim Anderson trade rumors heating up; Top 5 landing spots

3. New York Yankees

Anderson and the Yankees, specifically veteran third baseman Josh Donaldson, have a checkered past but with New York sitting at fourth in the AL East at the All-Star break, it needs all the help it can get. The loss of Aaron Judge from the lineup due to injury has hurt the Yankees in a massive way as their .231 team batting average is tied for the second worst in MLB. New York fired its hitting coach, Dillon Lawson, on Sunday as a result and hired former three-time All-Star Sean Casey to replace him. The addition of both Anderson and Casey could spark the Yankees’ bats in the second half of the season.
