Yankees-Pirates Trade Idea Brings Beloved Infielder Back to New York
Yankees-Pirates Trade Idea Brings Beloved Infielder Back to New York originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Yankees ended an embarrassing six-game losing streak with a 7-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday, with home runs from Trent Grisham and Paul Goldschmidt being the recipe for a cathartic win. Advertisement Friday's seven-run outburst equaled the Yankees' total over their previous seven games; the last Yankee team to post 6+ losses with that poor of an offensive run was the 1908 squad. Fortunately, enough offensive trade targets exist that the Yankees can supplement their areas of need with a few savvy moves over the coming weeks. One of those can be found in an old friend in Pittsburgh. Aug 22, 2024; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA; Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman Isiah Kiner-Falefa (7) throws to first base to complete a double play over Cincinnati Reds right fielder Amed Rosario (38) during the fifth inning at PNC Park. Mandatory Credit: Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY SportsCharles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who played for the Yankees from 2022 to 2023, has hit to a strong .288 batting average for the Pirates this year, and trade rumors have been swirling due to his impending free agency. Jon Heyman of the New York Post predicted the Yankees could swing a cheap trade for their beloved former infielder. Advertisement IKF's .692 OPS leaves a lot to be desired, but his .333 on base percentage would bode well for the Yankees if they choose to pursue him as a trade deadline option. IKF has made 203 appearances at third base, including 37 at the hot corner during his time with the Yankees. A trade for IKF has a number of benefits: for one, he already has experience playing in the Bronx, which is polarizing for several reasons. Mostly, though, IKF slotting at third base would give Jazz Chisholm Jr daily reps at second base, and alleviate the need for DJ LeMahieu or Oswald Peraza to occupy the four slot. A trade for IKF would hardly be expensive, and it would promise the Yankees another on-base hitter, potentially at the back of the lineup ahead of Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger and Aaron Judge.

Orlando Pirates latest signing puts Angolan star's future in doubt
Orlando Pirates have edged closer to announcing their ninth signing ahead of the 2025/2026 campaign, and it's a name that's already turning heads. Malian midfielder Abdoulaye Mariko has touched down in Johannesburg, ready to join the squad's pre-season preparations. At just 23 years old, Mariko has already made a name for himself on the African football stage, with impressive performances for Djoliba AC in the CAF Champions League. His imminent arrival has not only excited fans but also raised eyebrows over what it means for Gilberto, the Angolan international who returned to Petro de Luanda on loan in January. According to a source, Pirates moved swiftly to fend off interest from rival clubs across the continent to land the highly rated central midfielder. 'The new guy is already in the country, and his announcement is imminent. He's expected to be part of the squad heading to Spain for pre-season,' confirmed a source. Mariko's inclusion in the travelling party heading to Spain next month. The fact that Pirates will face Bolton Wanderers, Pafos, Las Palmas, and Granada all but confirms that coach Abdeslam Ouaddou plans to include him in his setup. Gilberto joined Pirates last July but couldn't secure a regular starting spot, so the club sent him back on loan. His spot now looks increasingly under threat. 'It's not looking good for Gilberto. From what we understand, he could be one of the players placed on the release list,' revealed the source. 'He'll likely either move on permanently or go out on loan again. That's exactly why the club targeted Mariko, to potentially replace him in the available foreign slots.' The Soweto giants have already confirmed eight new arrivals this week. The likelihood of Gilberto remaining at the club appears slim. What will happen to Gilberto at Orlando Pirates? Let us know by leaving a comment below or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 1.
