Mandatory Credit: Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports The New York Yankees are finalizing a trade for Miami Marlins outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr., ESPN reported Saturday.
Full terms of the deal haven't yet been revealed but multiple reports peg Triple-A catcher Agustin Ramirez as one of the players headed to Miami.
A 2022 All-Star, Chisholm has been a fixture in Miami's lineup since he broke into the league with the Marlins in 2020.
The Bahamas product batted a career-best .254 during that All-Star season with an on-base percentage of .325.
This season, Chisholm is batting .249 with 13 homers in 430 plate appearances over 101 games. His 50 RBIs are approaching his career high (53), while his 22 stolen bases are similarly one off a career high.
Chisholm, 26, has a career batting average of .246 with 205 RBIs and 81 stolen bases.
After a hot start this season, New York has cooled off in recent weeks, falling behind the Baltimore Orioles into second place in the AL East at 60-45. The Marlins are tied with the Colorado Rockies for an NL-worst 38-66 mark.
Ramirez, 22, has 20 homers in 87 minor league games -- 16 at Double-A Somerset and four at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
