Lou Trivino Stats

New York Yankees relief pitcher Lou Trivino picked up his 11th save of the season in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blue Jays. Trivino entered the game up by three with one out in the eighth inning and runners on first and second. He got George Springer to ground into a double play and stayed on to pitch the ninth. He got the first two hitters out on a strikeout and a groundout, allowed a single, and got the final out on another groundout. Manager Aaron Boone recently stated that the Yankees will use a committee for save situations for the rest of the season. Trivino does have closer experience, but the lack of a clear role and his 4.61 ERA makes him untrustable this late in the season.

New York Yankees right-handed reliever Lou Trivino (back) is dealing with back spasms, manager Aaron Boone said on Wednesday. Trivino said it's something he deals with about once a year, and it usually takes two or three days to clear up. With that said, it's unlikely that he'll be available out of the bullpen in the series finale against the Minnesota Twins on Thursday, but he could pitch again at some point this weekend against the Tampa Bay Rays. Trivino has been excellent in 15 relief appearances since being acquired from the Oakland Athletics, allowing only an earned run on 10 hits while walking seven and striking out 12 in 13 1/3 innings.

The New York Yankees acquired starting pitcher Frankie Montas and relief pitcher Lou Trivino from the Oakland Athletics on Monday. Per MLB.com's Mark Feinsand, the Yankees are sending left-hander Ken Waldichuk (their No. 5 prospect), right-hander Luis Medina (No. 10), left-hander JP Sears (No. 20) and second baseman Cooper Bowman (No. 21) to the A's. Montas became the Yankees' top trade target after the Seattle Mariners landed right-hander Luis Castillo from the Reds last weekend. The 29-year-old's fantasy stock will only rise with the move to the first-place Yankees. He is currently 4-9 with a 3.18 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 109 strikeouts and 28 walks in 104 2/3 innings over 19 starts. Trivino, who has a 6.47 ERA, 1.87 WHIP and 10 saves for the A's in 32 innings, is unlikely to see many save chances in a bullpen that includes Clay Holmes as the primary ninth-inning option.
