Yankees Trade Duren for Youth in Six Man Deal
The New York Yankees traded Ryne Duren to the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for Truman Clevenger and Bob Cerv with added young players Leroy Thomas Johnny James and an unnamed outfielder. The move aims to bolster late inning relief and pinch hitting while the Angels gamble on Duren over the long haul. Thomas and James are 25 and 28 respectively and have shown varied major and minor league success. Cerv returns to the Yankees after stints with Kansas City and the Angels, seeking to recapture best form after a 1960s hitting peak.
