The New York Yankees need to add a third baseman, and they could look to poach a slugger from the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The New York Yankees are "starting to make calls" as the team searches for a third baseman prior to the July 31 trade deadline, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post.

Yankees prospect pegged by ex-MLB GM as likely trade piece in deadline discussions originally appeared on Athlon Sports. If the Yankees do pull the trigger on a major deal at this year’s trade deadline, former MLB GM Jim Bowden believes the top prospect on the move would be Spencer Jones.
