NEW YORK — The Washington Nationals<\/a> picked up infielder Jorbit Vivas<\/a> in a trade Sunday that sent minor league pitcher Sean Paul Li\u00f1an to the New York Yankees<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Vivas spent 29 games with the Yankees last season, hitting .161 with a homer and five RBIs. The second baseman\/third baseman was originally signed by the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> as a non-drafted free agent in 2017. He was acquired by the Yankees along with lefty Victor Gonz\u00e1lez as part of a deal that sent infielder Trey Sweeney<\/a> to the Dodgers in 2023.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old Li\u00f1an went a combined 3-4 last season with a 3.03 ERA and one save in different minor league stints with the Dodgers and Nationals. The right-hander was traded to the Nationals last July in a package that sent outfielder Alex Call<\/a> to the Dodgers.<\/p>\n
