The Cardinals' roster churn continued on Saturday night, as they dealt first baseman Luke Voit to the Yankees in exchange for a pair of relievers -- Giovanny Gallegos and Chasen Shreve. St. Louis also sent the Yankees $1 million in international bonus pool money to complete the deal, a source told MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez.

With a desire to add a lefty and international spending money to spare, the Cardinals traded bonus money and St. Louis-area native Luke Voit to the New York Yankees late Saturday night for a tandem of relievers that includes lefty Chasen Shreve.
