The Yankees continue to wheel and deal.
Just hours after signing veteran Kevin Millwood on Friday morning, Jerry Crasnick is reporting that the Yankees have sent reliever Sergio Mitre to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for outfielder Chris Dickerson.
The move opens up a spot in the Yankee bullpen for Freddy Garcia or Bartolo Colon, as one of which is expected to start the season as the team’s No. 5 starter.
The Brewers receive some much needed pitching depth after losing Zack Greinke to a rib injury.
Dickerson, 28, hit just .206/.250/.268 last season, splitting time between the Reds and Brewers.
