The New York Yankees announced today that they have acquired C Rob Brantly from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for cash considerations.

Brantly, 31, has batted .228 (89-for-391) with 32R, 19 doubles, 7HR, 37RBI and 33BB in 128 games over parts of six Major League seasons with Miami (2012-13), Chicago-AL (2015, ’17), Philadelphia (2019) and San Francisco (2020). The left-handed hitter attended spring training with the Giants this season as a non-roster invitee, hitting .250 (5-for-20) with 1R, 1 double and 3RBI in 10 spring training games. Brantly made his second career Opening Day roster (also 2013 with Miami) and appeared in one game for the Giants before being designated for assignment on July 28 and outrighted to San Francisco’s Alternate Site on August 1.

The San Diego, Calif., native spent the majority of the 2019 season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, batting .314 (74-for-236) with 32R, 13 doubles, 2 triples, 6HR, 28RBI and 32BB in 82 games. He also appeared in one game for the Phillies.

He was originally selected by the Tigers in the third round of the 2010 First-Year Player Draft out of the University of California, Riverside.

Brantly has been added to the Yankees’ 60-man roster and assigned to the Alternate Site.
