Yankees third baseman Ryan McMahon has flashed elite defense since he was acquired from the Rockies on Friday.

After spending his entire MLB career with one team, third baseman Ryan McMahon is stepping into a whole new chapter. The 30-year-old is now a member of the New York Yankees, bringing his talents to baseball’s most iconic franchise.

The Yankees have had a need for a third baseman since releasing DJ LeMahieu and moving Jazz Chisholm back to the keystone. As of late, manager Aaron Boone has used a combination of Oswald Peraza and Jorbit Vivas at the hot corner. Clearly New York, now 4 ½ games back in the American League East, was not satisfied with that arrangement.
