Dodgers Acquire Joey Gallo

By Anthony Franco | August 2, 2022 at 3:00pm CDT

3:00PM: The trade has been officially announced.

1:22PM: The Dodgers are taking a shot on Joey Gallo for the season’s final few months. They’ve reportedly agreed to acquire him from the Yankees in exchange for pitching prospect Clayton Beeter.

Gallo has spent the past year in the Bronx, coming over from the Rangers in a massive deadline deal last summer. At the time, the power-hitting outfielder was fresh off a second career All-Star nod and carried a .223/.379/.490 line with 25 home runs in 95 games. The Yankees no doubt envisioned his left-handed pop playing perfectly in the short right field porch at their home ballpark, but Gallo’s tenure in New York proved a major disappointment.

The 28-year-old stumbled to a .160/.303/.404 line through 58 games after the trade last year. While he’s always been a high-strikeout player, his saw his rate of punchouts spike from 32.2% to 38.6%. He still connected on 13 homers with the Yankees, but the 70 point dip in both his batting average and on-base marks surely wasn’t what general manager Brian Cashman and his staff had had in mind.

The Yankees retained Gallo via arbitration in hopes his production would bounce back towards his career norms. The opposite transpired, as his struggled became even more pronounced in 2022. Gallo’s strikeout rate held near its late-2021 level (38.8%), and his power has taken a step back. He’s hit 12 homers in 82 contests, watching his average exit velocity fall from a strong 91.3 MPH to a near-average 88.4 MPH. Gallo’s still drawing plenty of walks, but merely average batted ball metrics aren’t sufficient for a player who whiffs as often as he does.

New York’s frustrations with Gallo’s continued struggles mounted (as did his own, as he candidly addressed with Lindsey Adler of the Athletic recently). The Yankees began to curtail his playing time in favor of the hot-hitting Matt Carpenter. They then acquired Andrew Benintendi from the Royals for a trio of pitching prospects last week, all but officially ending Gallo’s time in the organization.

It’s an inopportune time to market Gallo, but the Dodgers certainly aren’t anticipating they’re getting a player who’ll hit .159/.291/.368 — as Gallo did in over 500 plate appearances with New York. They’re betting on his pre-Yankees track record, hopeful that a change of scenery and perhaps some desired mechanical tweaks can get him back on track. Gallo is capable of carrying a lineup at his best, as he did during last year’s first half in Texas and during a half-season in 2019 when he hit .253/.389/.598 with 22 homers. He’s also an excellent defensive corner outfielder and baserunner, and he addresses a corner outfield mix that is currently without Chris Taylor due to a foot fracture (although Taylor is expected to return wells in advance of the start of the postseason).

Once Taylor returns, Gallo figures to work off the bench behind Taylor, Cody Bellinger and Mookie Betts. He’ll add some left-handed power to a group that also includes Jake Lamb, while he adds a plus defensive outfielder for late-game situations. It’s a short-term pickup for a club that’s certainly headed to the playoffs (and very likely to win the NL West). Gallo is slated to reach free agency at the end of the season. He’s playing this year on a $10.275MM salary, around $3.7MM of which is yet to be paid. The Dodgers will assume the reminder of that money, per Jon Heyman of the New York Post (Twitter link).

In exchange for the final couple months of Gallo’s services, the Yankees pick up a recent supplemental second-round pick. Beeter, a righty from Texas Tech, checked in as the #15 prospect in the L.A. system on Baseball America’s most recent rankings. He generates plus life on his mid-upper 90s fastball and has a good downhill curveball, but his lack of control seems likely to eventually push him to the bullpen. The 23-year-old has spent the season in Double-A, pitching to a 5.75 ERA with a huge 36.1% strikeout rate but an untenable 14.3% walk percentage across 18 appearances (16 starts).

Pat Ragazzo of Sports Illustrated first reported the deal.

      Captain of the Three True Outcomes Dream Team. Gallo’s 2021 was unreal. The pros: All Star Team, 38 home runs, led the league in walks, gold glove. The cons: hit .199, led the *sport* in strikeouts, hitless in the playoffs.

      And then was rewarded with a one-year $10.275M contract with the New York Yankees.

      Ah, modern baseball.

      @semut I wouldn’t put it past the LADs, but hitters aren’t like pitchers. You can’t just look at them from afar, on film, and figure ‘aha! He’s tipping!’ or calculate that if he just junks the change and drops down on release he’ll be light years better.’

      Gallo just looks like he’s at the logical trendline of collapse his limitations were already predicting a year ago.

          I think more similarities between Gallo and Muncy. Both walk a lot, both generally don’t chase out of the zone, both strike out a ton, both hit with power. Gallo a better fielder than Muncy. Unfortunately, both struggling mightily in 2022.

      They more or less got lucky that Pujols finally accepted a platoon. Sounded like he was vehemently against it in Anaheim.

      Gallo’s splits from what I’ve seen haven’t shown much sign of life for either side. And the fact that Muncy and Bellinger haven’t fixed what’s wrong, leads me thinking they won’t have much luck here either. Doesn’t seem like a simple platoon fix.

      Sadly enough, the Yankees are going to keep him dangling as their “insurance policy” until he’s finally out of options.
      Between Andujar & Florial, I sometimes wonder if there’s just something to those two that Cashman just plain doesn’t like.

    Let’s be honest here, Gallo was atrocious in pinstripes but his recent interview where he said that he was basically depressed over his time in NY makes you really feel bad for the guy. He just couldn’t find his rhythm in the Bronx and hopefully a change of scenery will help him.

        Some guys just can’t handle the pressure/media/expectations of that market. Everyone knew he was a 3 outcome player but when the new baseballs were introduced he became a 1 outcome player (K). Not the entire reason for his rapid decline but like I said I hope the move to LA gives him a fresh start because he’s one of the more well liked guys around the league according to people in baseball.

      Simple answer– some people embrace the bright lights & intensity of NYC. Others run from it. Gallo has talent but his personality never matched up with those bright lights.
      As a Yankees fan, there is something good I can say about him – he always hustled, always gave a solid effort. But he was way overmatched in every single at-bat. It was seriously hard to watch.

        It does seem like Muncy is slowly getting back to his old self lately though, which matches the timeline Hunter Pence said he experienced with the same injury.

    Joey G is a 6′ 5″ strikeout machine. I love the guy and he’s a great defensive player. But unless the Dodgers have some anti-swing & miss voodoo ready, Joey is a risk. But IF, repeat IF the Dodgers can fix him, Joey G is capable of great things.

    Hmmm. Beeter is great arm with major control issues. When the Dodgers drafted him, they hoped they could help his control and turn him into a starter. Now, it’s pretty clear his ceiling is a reliever. Not a major loss. I am hoping this means the Yankees are paying Gallo.

    Clearly, the Dodgers are banking on a change of scenery for Gallo. It is hard to see the fit though. I get he replaces Lamb because unlike Lamb he is defensively competent. But this is a roster spot nonetheless. Low risk high upside is about the most one can say.

    Unfortunately, this suggests Ian Happ to the Dodgers is not happening.

    He had a 4.7 WAR last year.
    He can be written off as someone who just can’t play in NY.
    He can get hot in the postseason when you face better SP and HR’s are huge in those tight games.

    These are the reasons I imagine LA did this. It’s also possible their staff saw something they are very confident they can fix. Not saying I agree with it, or think it’s a smart move. Just guessing that this is what they were thinking.

    Roster lottery ticket with big power upside flipped for a prospect power arm with big upside, but both have huge red flags.

    Not the teams failed initial evaluation/aquisition of the player.
    Not the failed coaching development or adjustments.
    Not that the player just didn’t like his teammates. (Which is the reason most humans hate their job)
    Nyy sometimes comes out smelling like a rose. Its an accepted answer. End of story. No more questions asked.

    Gallo end being a nice little pickup for the Dodgers now that he is away from the pressures of New York

      Oh and there’s no pressure in LA? It’s the same if not W O R S E.
      Lmao. I thought the article was gonna be straight up just the title: Dodgers acquire Joey Gallo from Yankees. That’s it lol. No return. Just “you want him, take him!”.

        Have you ever read a Los Angeles newspaper or watched the local news? they are apologists to the core. So no, it’s not the same as New York

    GL to Gallo! Where’s all the NYY fans who thought Gallo should be DFA’d. Not only did the Yankees not eat salary but also got a warm body back.

      I am pleasantly surprised, another good move by cashman, unloads Gallo and his salary, plus gets Something back!

    Dodgers should’ve at least cleared a 40 man spot in this trade. Beeter wasn’t even rule 5 eligible this offseason

    Don’t understand it. If anything they needed a right handed bat. Not sure Thompson is the answer.

    You would think the Yankees would be the one throwing in the prospect in with the trade for any team that took on Gallo. Yankees were able to clear up space in their outfield, he is a terrible hitter this year. They were able to unload him and get a decent prospect in return is shocking to me.

      More importantly, it clears up space on their 40-man. Otherwise, Cashman would have tougher decisions to make.

    Gallo?? This guy has hit under .200 in four of the last five seasons. A .201 lifetime hitter. He stinks.

    To all the dodgers fans that don’t like this move….he’s cheap power and a pretty good bet to hit better than he has so far. I’m mean let’s face it, he can’t be much worse?! The bar has been set so low that even failure will seem like a success. Decent move for LA, gallo still has a ton of power in that bat!

      Moneyballer, the problem is we already have 2 guys in the lineup just like him. Fortunately we can hide those terrible numbers with freddie, trea, mookie and lux. Add a 3rd terrible hitter, and the lineup gets exposed. In my book that equals losses.

    You know when I first read this I was like WTF. Sometimes we are so quick to make a comment / troll etc. We already have so many options with options coming back. But reading about Joey, listening to the interviews about his mental state in NYC. He desperately needed to get out of there.
    I don’t know how he fits as he is pretty set high strike out / HR guy.
    But I hope for his sake he is in a better place mentally knowing that Andrew Friedman wanted him.
    As a Dodger fan I will support him and hope baseball gods smile on him in the World Series when we beat the Yankees.

    As a Dodger fan, I dont mind this guy sitting on the bench. Who’s going to be sent down? Lamb? Outman? These guys deserve to be here. I’m assuming its going to Lamb. Lamb should be allowed to stay on the roster.

    Can’t wait until someone signs a career .201 hitter to 4/$75 in the offseason after he goes 3-30 with 2 HR in the playoffs.

    I’ve said it a hundred times, at least: Andrew Friedman doesn’t have a clue. Why would you A) solve a problem for the Yankees by making it yours? B) give the Yankees a prospect in the process? C) send Jake Lamb, who cost a fraction of Gallo is owed, to Seattle on the same day? If your looking for a left handed bat in the line up, isn’t that what Lamb is? His numbers are far better than Gallo’s, Essentially, Friedman added another Bellinger/Muncy to a lineup that those two were weighing down.

    On second thought, if this is all Friedman’s only midseason acquisition, -I’ll take it.

    We will have gotten off easy this year, with the Dodger’s farm system still in tact.

    That’s a terrible line, no doubt. But if Gallo can provide some power through October then there’s the payoff. This is a low risk trade. With so many injured players getting close to returning before the playoffs, the Dodgers will be at full strength very soon.

      The one area where Gallo won’t hurt you is fielding his position as a late-inning defensive replacement. If he runs into one occasionally, all the better.

    It was nice of Cashman to help Joey out by trading him to a small-market team where he won’t be under the spotlight.

    Yes, that is sarcasm.
