Austin Slater is heading to the New York Yankees. The Yankees acquired the veteran outfielder from the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday in exchange for minor league pitching prospect Gage Ziehl. The Yankees have a pressing need to bolster their outfield ranks with star Aaron Judge out indefinitely while dealing with a flexor strain in his right elbow.

Austin Slater said being traded is “always bittersweet.” The outfielder was dealt twice last season — from San Francisco to Cincinnati and then from Cincinnati to Baltimore. He was on the move again Wednesday after the Chicago White Sox traded him to the New York Yankees for minor-league right-handed pitcher Gage Ziehl.
