Narvaez's homer for Boston questions Yankees' trade decision

silive.com

Carlos Narvaez, traded by the Yankees to the Red Sox, hit a game-winning home run at Yankee Stadium, sparking debate about the trade's wisdom. This was his first career home run in the Bronx. Narvaez, acquired in the offseason, is now hitting .282 with a strong on-base plus slugging percentage. The Yankees received pitching prospect Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz in the trade, who is now ranked as a top prospect. While Narvaez is thriving, the Yankees' catching depth and Rodriguez-Cruz's potential make it premature to judge the trade. The Yankees also have strong catchers in J.C. Escarra and Austin Wells.
