Yankees MILB 6/15: Wilberson De Pena Homers Twice

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: The Yankees released Seth Brown from his minor league contract. This is likely a situation where he exercised a clause in his minor league deal. In 53 games for Scranton, the 33-year-old hit .235/.327/.426 (97 wRC+) with 9 home runs and 21 RBI. He struck out at a 33.2% rate. […]

Yankees MILB 6/14: Carlos Lagrange Continues Relief Journey

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: RHP Chris Veach, who has pitched well this season, was placed on the injured list one day after being pulled from the game while warming up.

Yankees MILB 6/12: George Lombard Jr. Homers Twice

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: Losing Trent Grisham would be devastating to a lineup that is already missing Aaron Judge. Grisham’s actual numbers have caught up to his early-season “under the hood” metrics. We could have an outfield of Cody Bellinger, Spencer Jones, and Jasson Dominguez as early as tomorrow if Grisham’s injury is significant (update: hamstring […]

Yankees MILB 6/10: Cade Smith: 7 Scoreless Innings

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: RHP Angel Chivilli, who appeared in two games for the Yankees earlier this season, was assigned to Scranton today on a rehab assignment.

Somerset (30-27) Day off. Hudson Valley (25-31) Day off. Tampa (30-27) Day off. FCL Yankees (14-13) (Lost to the Phillies, 10-9, in 11 […]

Yankees MILB 6/7: George Lombard Jr.’s Multi-Hit Game

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: A nice win over the Red Sox today. Anthony Volpe had a key walk in the 8th inning, but none of his issues have been resolved, which should surprise no one.  People actually thought having “competition” for his job would magically improve him. That makes a wild assumption:  That he only […]
