Yankees trade disappointing Camilo Doval to Pirates one year after hyped deadline stunner

CHICAGO – The most tantalizing and frustrating member of the Yankees’ bullpen is on his way out.

The Yankees are trading Camilo Doval to the Pirates for prospects Luis Cruz and Omar Alfonzo, The Post’s Jon Heyman’s and Joel Sherman confirmed Saturday, a year after he was part of their deadline haul to remake the bullpen.

Doval, who is under team control through 2027, pitched to a 4.54 ERA across 44 games this season.

His inability to deliver in big spots had relegated him to mostly low-leverage situations of late.

The Yankees are still looking to add an impact arm to bolster their bullpen, but the hard-throwing Doval will no longer be part of the equation, which may be addition by subtraction.
