The New York Yankees have had a poor start to the season. The situation, however, seems to be improving now. Adding to their fans’ joy, the Yanks have brought Greg Allen back into the team. It is an enormous boost for the Bronx side, who need options to sustain their positive run. Allen has played for the Yankees in the past, and it is an old home to return to for the 30-year-old.

According to the reports, the deal will involve the exchange of minor league RHP Diego Hernández.  Let’s understand the entire trade.

Greg Allen is back in New York from Boston!

Greg Allen played for the Yankees during the 2021 season. He then moved to the Pittsburgh Pirates. The New York Yankees shared the news of his return after a deal with the Boston Red Sox. It stated, “The New York Yankees today announced that they have acquired OF Greg Allen from the Boston Red Sox in exchange for minor league RHP Diego Hernández and cash considerations.”

This is not the first time these two franchises have been involved in a sudden trade. They also traded Adam Ottavino in 2021 to the Boston Red Sox. The Yanks, however, also had a sour phase where they did not make any trade for 14 years straight. This trade also adds to the rivalry between the two teams, which started in the year 1920 with the trade of Babe Ruth.
