Passan: Dodgers 'hoping to find some magic' with Gallo (1:03)

The Dodgers want to get out of Joey Gallo. There is a time and a place for this.

The New York Yankees traded outfielder Joey Gallo to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

SI.com reported that the Yankees would be getting a pitcher in the deal.

Gallo, a two-time All-Star, was acquired by the Yankees in a trade with the Texas Rangers. He has a.158 average and has struck out 106 times in 233 at-bats.

The Yankees acquired All-Star outfielder Andrew Benintendi from the Kansas City Royals last week.

The Dodgers are currently without Chris Taylor, who is out with a broken foot.

The right-handed pitcher is winless with a 5.75 earned run average in 18 appearances for the Tulsa Drillers this season.
