2018 – The Yankees address their lack of experienced infielders by acquiring 2B/3B Brandon Drury from the Diamondbacks, in return for a pair of prospects, IF Nick Solak and P Taylor Widener. The D-Backs immediately flip Solak and another prospect, P Anthony Banda, to Tampa Bay in return for OF Steven Souza, their second move in two days to address their failure to re-sign OF J.D. Martinez. For Tampa, the shedding of experienced players continues, as Souza is the third to leave in a span of four days, after P Jake Odorizzi and OF/DH Corey Dickerson.
