The New York Yankees and New York Mets made a rare trade Friday with the latter acquiring minor-league catcher Luis Torrens.
Torrens had a solid showing during spring training with the Yankees and has been off to a strong start at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
The veteran catcher has been working at other positions as well, including first base, considering the depth the Yankees have at catcher.
In 30 games at Triple-A this season, Torrens is hitting .279 with five home runs, 19 RBI and an .807 OPS.
The Yankees received $100,000 in exchange for Torrens, per Joel Sherman of The Post.
