With the Yankees needing help in the bullpen, the team will get David Bednar in a trade with the Pirates before the 2025 deadline.

The Yankees have subtracted from their rotation one day after being unable to add a starter at the trade deadline. New York released veteran righty Marcus Stroman on Friday, the team announced. It was part of a series of moves to get the club's deadline additions, including relievers David Bednar and Camilo Doval, on the active roster.

The New York Yankees are parting ways with Marcus Stroman ahead of the anticipated season debut of starter Luis Gil this weekend.
