Rangers trade for MacKenzie Gore as Yankees miss out on potential trade target

MacKenzie Gore scored the Nationals a haul.

Washington traded the lefty hurler to the Rangers on Thursday, according to The Post’s Jon Heyman.

The Rangers shipped minor leaguers Gavin Fien, Alejandro Rosario, Abimelec Ortiz, Devin Fitz-Gerald and Yeremy Cabrera. FanSided reported.

Fien, a prized shortstop and the first-round pick of the Rangers last year, was the franchise’s No. 2 prospect, according to MLB.com.

Gore, 26, went 5-15 for the woeful Nationals last season, with a 4.17 ERA over 30 starts with 185 strikes over 159 2/3 innings. He led all Nats pitchers with a 3.0 WAR.

He now joins a rotation that includes Jacob deGrom and Nathan Eovaldi.

The Yankees were among the teams reported to be interested in Gore’s services this offseason as they prepare to open the season without aces Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodon and Clarke Schmidt.

All three hurlers are working their way back from various injuries.
