Yankees MILB 5/22: George Lombard Jr: Multi-Hit Effort

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log I am surprised that Spencer Jones was demoted to make room for Jose Caballero. Jones wasn’t producing, as he didn’t compile any extra-base hits after his promotion. However, he is an outfielder with power potential.  With Max Schuemann and Caballero, you are betting more on defense and speed. As for Anthony Volpe, the plan is to give […]

Yankees MILB 5/21: Rory Fox Tosses Shutout

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log LHP Tanner Bauman was moved from Hudson Valley to Somerset. This may have been a “need an arm” move, as Bauman wasn’t pitching well in Hudson Valley. SS Christofer Reyes was transferred from the DSL to the FCL. The 18-year-old signed for $100,000 in 2024. In two DSL seasons, he didn’t perform […]

Yankees MILB 5/20: Jackson Lovich Hits 3 HR

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: Nothing. Scranton (24-21) (After a 15-4 win last night, they lost 13-1 to Lehigh Valley today) SS George Lombard Jr.: 1-for-5, 2B (2), CS (2), 2 K Lombard Jr. didn’t earn his first Triple-A extra base hit until his 17th game.

Yankees MILB 5/19: George Lombard Jr.: 3 Hits

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: RHP Eric Reyzelman, who has been humming for Somerset, is back with Scranton. Reyzelman struggled mightily in 2025 to the point where the Yankees decided not to protect him in the Rule 5 draft. He has turned that around this year, and I can’t wait to see the Savant […]

Yankees MILB 5/18: Richard Matic Collects 3 Hits

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: RHP Yovanny Cruz is in the Bronx!  The 26-year-old hard thrower owned a 3.00 ERA (4.41 FIP) over 18 innings for Scranton. He owned impressive 29.1% K and 52.3% GB rates but a less-than-impressive 11.4% BB. The average velocity on his four-seam fastball was 99.2 MPH, easily topping 100 MPH […]

Yankees MILB 5/17: Carlos Lagrange Hits 103 MPH

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: I was randomly looking at a minor league report from a few years ago when I came to this blurb: RHP Cam Schlittler: 3.2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 5 K Schlittler’s professional debut. He stands 6’6″ and was drafted in the 7th round in the 2022 […]

Yankees MILB 5/16: Jackson Lovich is Scorching

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: Promoting Elmer Rodriguez to pitch against the Mets tomorrow makes sense. Interestingly, however, it sets him up to start Game 1 against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday. While the Mets’ series is fun, I am looking more at the seven upcoming games. The Yankees struggled against the Jays last year […]

Yankees MILB 5/15: Jace Avina Continues His Surge

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: A few stat lines from former prospects. Stats are through Thursday: Jesus Rodriguez, sent to the Giants as part of the Camilo Doval deal, was recently called up. He is 6-for-24 with a home run while playing six games at catcher and one in right field. The Yankees played […]

Yankees MILB 5/14: Jackson Lovich Homers Twice

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: Ben Hess‘ month-long stint on the injured list is over. He was activated by the Somerset Patriots today.  In two starts in early April, he allowed three runs on five hits over 7.2 innings with a 14/8 K/BB. He allowed five walks in 2.2 innings in his last start on […]
