NEW YORK — The scuffling New York Yankees added infield depth on Saturday night, acquiring Amed Rosario from the Washington Nationals for pitcher Clayton Beeter and a minor leaguer.

“When I heard where I was going, I kind of didn’t believe it,” Rosario said through an interpreter in Minnesota, where the Nationals beat the Twins 9-3. “I mean, at some point I kind of knew I was going to get traded, but I didn’t know it was going to be today.”
