Montas was considered one of the top starting pitchers available at this year’s trade deadline.
After the A’s dealt fan favorites Chris Bassitt, Matt Chapman, Sean Manaea and Matt Olson elsewhere this spring, it was only a matter of time before ace Frankie Montas was the next top performer to be sent to a new squad.The A’s sent Montas and right-handed reliever Lou Trivino to the New York Yankees in exchange for four prospects in what’s expected to be one of the biggest trades of the summer, sources confirm to this news organization.
Montas, a right-handed starter with an elite fastball-splitter combination, posted a 3.18 ERA in 19 starts for the A’s this season while striking out more than a batter per inning. He’ll be immediately counted on to slot in a Yankees rotation featuring Gerrit Cole and Nestor Cortes. The Yankees are in first place in the American League East, 11.5 games up on the Toronto Blue Jays.
Sears and Waldichuk will go to Las Vegas to play for the Triple-A affiliate. Medina will go to Double-A Midland and Bowman to High-A Lansing. Sears could join the big league team sometime this season. He pitched three games with the Yankees this year, including two starts. He has a 2.05 ERA over 22 innings in those three appearances with 15 strikeouts and five walks.
