The Colorado Rockies made their first sizable move ahead of the MLB trade deadline last week. Homegrown star Ryan McMahon was traded to the New York Yankees in exchange for two pitching prospects: left-hander Griffin Herring and right-hander Josh Grosz.

In exchange for McMahon, the Rockies added a couple of starting pitchers to their farm. Herring, a left-hander, was the Yankees’ No. 8 prospect, according to MLB Pipeline, while the right-handed Grosz was ranked No. 21.

The New York Yankees' two-year nightmare at the hot corner is finally over. And that comes at the expense of the Colorado Rockies.
