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

It had to happen, but there were still some people surprised when the Colorado Rockies actually pulled the trigger on trading homegrown star third baseman, Ryan McMahon, ahead of the MLB trade deadline.

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.
