In the middle of their four-game series finale Thursday afternoon, the Yankees and Rays finalized a deal to send Tampa Bay utility man Jose Caballero to New York. The Rays will receive outfielder Everson Pereira and a player to be named later from the Yankees.

José Caballero turned an inning-ending double play for the Tampa Bay Rays in the fifth inning, then batted in the sixth.

The Yankees sent Oswald Peraza to the Angels and acquired Jose Caballero from the Rays in what was effectively a swap of infielders on Thursday.
