After trading Chapman and Miller, Yankees deal for reliever Tyler Clippard

The New York Yankees decimated the back end of their bullpen this week, trading away closer Aroldis Chapman and ace setup man Andrew Miller.

Someone has to pick up some of those relief innings, so the Yankees turned to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday and swung a trade for reliever Tyler Clippard.

They sent minor league right-hander Vicente Campos to Arizona in return.

Clippard got his start with the Yankees as a 2003 ninth-round draft pick.

The 31-year-old is 44-32 lifetime in 529 appearances. This season he is 2-3 with a 4.30 ERA in 40 games, including one save.
