Overview
- New York has formally contacted Colorado about acquiring McMahon since July 1 as it intensifies its quest for a long-term third baseman before the July 31 deadline.
- McMahon carries two years of team control and a $32 million commitment, making him a comparatively affordable option against free-agent targets.
- He has slumped to a .213/.314/.377 slash line with 12 home runs in 89 games this season, and his offensive value is partly propped up by Coors Field splits.
- Defensive metrics have worsened annually since 2021, with McMahon posting only three outs above average at third base in 2025.
- The Rockies, deep in a rebuild, are open to moving McMahon as New York keeps tabs on Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Eugenio Suarez as alternative options.
