NEW YORK — The New York Yankees<\/a> added to their bullpen Wednesday by acquiring right-handed reliever Angel Chivilli<\/a> in a trade with the Colorado Rockies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They sent minor league infielder T.J. Rumfield to Colorado for Chivilli, a 23-year-old from the Dominican Republic with two seasons of major league experience. He had a 7.06 ERA in 43 relief appearances for the Rockies last year and a 4.55 ERA in 30 appearances with them in 2024.<\/p>\n

Chivilli in his career has struck out 71 batters, walked 33 and allowed 20 home runs in 90 1\/3 innings. To make room on the 40-man roster for Chivilli, the team designated outfielder Michael Siani<\/a> for assignment.<\/p>\n

The move is the Yankees’ latest in an offseason that also included them getting lefty starter Ryan Weathers<\/a> from Miami in exchange for four prospects. Coming off making the AL Division Series, they also brought back pitchers Ryan Yarbrough<\/a>, Paul Blackburn<\/a> and Tim Hill<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Rumfield, 25, is a Richmond, Virginia, native who has played in the minors in the Philadelphia Phillies<\/a>‘ and Yankees’ organizations since 2021.<\/p>\n
