-
The most prominent recent trade involving Ryan McMahon occurred in July 2025, when the Colorado Rockies traded him to the New York Yankees. The deal sent pitching prospects Griffin Herring and Josh Grosz to Colorado in return, and McMahon moved from the Rockies to fill a third-base need for the Yankees. This followed renewed discussion about McMahon’s availability and his long club control, making him a target for several teams around that time.[1][6]
-
After the trade, Rockies teammates and leadership publicly reflected on McMahon’s departure, highlighting his impact and the emotional nature of the move for the clubhouse. The Rockies’ communications emphasized McMahon’s character and contribution as they transitioned to new roster plans.[6][7]
-
In the lead-up to and following that period, MLB trade chatter referenced McMahon as a controllable veteran who could be moved at deadlines when teams sought a reliable third baseman with multiple years of club control, though the Rockies had previously indicated varying levels of openness to offers on McMahon depending on the year and market conditions.[2][3][9]
