The struggling New York Yankees are expected to land a "big relief arm" before Thursday's trade deadline, per ESPN's Jeff Passan on Tuesday's edition of Pardon The Interruption.

Former New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu played a role in the team's recent choice to trade for third baseman Ryan McMahon.

Kwan, who turns 28 in September, entered Tuesday batting .287 with nine home runs, 37 RBIs, and 20 doubles for the inconsistent Guardians. The three-time All-Star has already posted 3.3 bWAR, and his 8.4 strikeout rate is fourth-best among qualified hitters.
