Grissom Traded by Reds to Yankees in Waiver Deal
The New York Yankees acquire pitcher Lee Grissom from Cincinnati in exchange for pitcher Joe Beggs under the waiver rule. Grissom, a temperamental left hander, is viewed as a potential spring addition or Newark or Kansas City assignment. Beggs, a 26 year old righty with strong Newark and Yankee years, is likely to stay with Cincinnati or return to the majors in another role.
