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

In their Yankees debuts, David Bednar and Jake Bird were among the many culprits in a mind-numbing 13-12 loss to the Marlins at loanDepot park.

The New York Yankees acquired Pittsburgh Pirates closer David Bednar on Thursday. The Pirates received catching prospects Rafael Flores and Edgleen Perez and outfielder Brian Sanchez. The 30-year-old closer was one of the top relief pitchers on the market this year. He joins a Yankees bullpen that includes Luke Weaver and Devin Williams.
