Yankees MILB 4/15: George Lombard Jr.: HR, 3 RBI, 2 BB, 2 SB

Notes: C Alex Jackson and C/OF Cooper Hummel are on the Triple-A injured list. That explains why C Jesus Rodriguez was promoted to Scranton. Additionally, the Railriders activated catcher Edinson Duran. Duran (22) played in 24 games in Low-A Tampa last year, hitting .218/.307/.346 with four doubles and three triples. This won’t be his first taste of Scranton, as he […]

Yankees MILB 4/12: Greysen Carter Hits 99.5 MPH

Notes: RHP Allan Winans was called up to take Marcus Stroman‘s roster spot. Winans (29) was selected off waivers from the Braves over the winter. He was drafted by the Mets in the 17th round in 2018 and spent four years in the organization before being sent to the Braves as “part of a conditional trade” in […]

Yankees MILB 4/11: Roderick Arias: 2 Hits, BB

Notes: “Are you ever returning to the Twitter platform for your minor league stuff?” I don’t know. However, I rather enjoy not being on that platform at the moment. Why try to play Whack-a-Mole with a bunch of dumb blue-check takes when I can ignore it altogether?  I miss some aspects of interacting with other […]

Yankees MILB 4/10: Jackson Castillo: 2 Doubles, 6 RBI

Notes: RHP McKinley Moore and OF Christopher Familia have been moved to the organization’s Development List. The Development List was introduced in 2021, and its purpose is what you think it is. If a player has something to work on, and the organization wants them to do so outside of game competition, the Development List is there for […]

Yankees MILB 4/6: Bryce Cunningham Impresses in Debut

Notes: Nothing to report Scranton (5-4) (Doubled Up Syracuse, 8-4) CF Ismael Munguia: 2-for-5, 2 R, SB (2) Munguia’s solid start continues (11-for-35 (.314/.400/.371)). RF Everson Pereira: 2-for-4, HR (1), 2 RBI, 2 R, BB, K Do the Yankees feel that Pereira can be the right-handed bat they seek? I have no idea. 1B T.J. Rumfield: 0-for-4, R, […]

Notes: Nothing to report Scranton (4-4) (Lost to Syracuse, 7-4) 1B Dominic Smith: 0-for-4, K LF Everson Pereira: 1-for-4, K 7-for-25 with four RBI. He is looking for his first extra-base hit. Given that extra-base power is his “thing,” I am not worried. 2B Jorbit Vivas: 1-for-4 DH T.J. Rumfield: 1-for-3, HR (3), RBI, R,  BB .303/.395/.636 in […]

Yankees MILB 4/4: Griffin Herring Dazzles in Debut

Notes: The Yankees have signed C/OF Cooper Hummel to a minor league deal after he elected free agency yesterday. The Astros outrighted him off their 40-man roster, and he had the right to declare free agency. While listed as a C/OF, Hummell hasn’t caught at any level since 2023 (96 innings). Offensively, the 30-year-old hasn’t done […]
