The Red Sox also landed pitchers Richard Fitts, who's considered the prize of the deal, and Nicholas Judice.

New York acquired the 27-year-old outfielder from the Boston Red Sox on Dec. 5 for right-handers Greg Weissert, Richard Fitts and Nicholas Judice, part of an offseason makeover that included getting slugging All-Star Juan Soto in a trade with San Diego the following day.

8/18/23 Yankees recall Greg Weissert for bullpen help. The New York Yankees have called up a familiar face to join the bullpen this weekend in righty Greg Weissert. Weissert first hit the big league scene around this time last year, when his slider caught eyes across 12 games for the Yankees down the stretch. The bulk of Weissert's MLB time this year came in April, when he was the first man up to replace the injured Jonathan Loáisiga in the bullpen.

4/24/23 Anthony Rizzo hitting (and getting hit) often for otherwise quiet Yankee lineup. Friday’s game between the Yankees and Blue Jays grew contentious in the top of the ninth inning when Greg Weissert hit Vladimir Guerrero Jr. with a pitch. The Toronto superstar admired a home run earlier in the Blue Jays’ win, but there was no real reason to believe the Yankees’ erratic righty plunked the slugger on purpose. Still, Guerrero stared the young pitcher down and slowly walked to ...

3/13/23 How Yankees' Greg Weissert is harnessing his command this spring. When Yankees right-hander Greg Weissert toes the rubber, he lines up as if he's about to throw a pitch straight into the third-base dugout. Weissert's delivery and the horizontal movement on his three-pitch mix make him an uncomfortable at-bat for anybody. “The most important thing for me is to get ahead and put myself in a good position to get not great swings and swings and misses,” Weissert said at Yankees camp last week. Weissert's outing against the Cardinals on Wednesday is the perfect example of why an improvement in command would take this righty to the next level.

Yankees reliever Greg Weissert's MLB debut was so horrific that all Gerrit Cole could do was laugh. “Dude, it was so bad, I didn't feel bad for him at all,” Cole said after a 4-0 loss to the Cardinals on Wednesday. Six-plus months after Weissert unraveled in his first big-league outing — a disastrous debut against the Athletics featuring two hit batsmen, two walks, a balk, three earned runs and only one out recorded — the right-hander is competing for an Opening Day roster spot and impressing his star teammates in the process. “He's freaking nasty, man,” Cole said.
