Yankees MILB 4/3: Braden Shewmake Homers

Notes: RHP Jake Woodford, whom the Yankees signed on March 28th, has been assigned to Scranton. To make room, LHP Edgar Barclay was sent down to Somerset.

Yankees MILB 4/2: Ismael Munguia Extends Hitting Streak

Notes: I have nothing to offer. Scranton (2-3) (Lost to Syracuse, 5-1, in a sleepy afternoon affair) CF Ismael Munguia: 1-for-3, BB He has started the season on a 5-game hitting streak. DH Everson Pereira: 1-for-4, 2 K 3B Jorbit Vivas: 1-for-4, RBI Vivas committed two errors, which doesn’t inspire confidence that he can play 3B. 1B T.J. […]

Yankees MILB 4/1/25: Ismael Munguia Stays Hot

Notes: Yesterday, the Yankees re-signed Dominic Smith to a minor league deal. The 29-year-old first baseman went 11-for-37 with three homers and 12 RBI in spring training. He should get some 1B/DH at-bats for Scranton. Scranton (2-2) (Defeated Syracuse, 6-2) CF Ismael Munguia: 3-for-4, RBI, RS, BB Munguia’s hot start continues (8-for-17, 2 doubles, 2 RBI, 3 […]

Yankees MILB 3/28: Let the Games Begin!

I am not going to be home to do this report tomorrow. I am not a fan of the current state of the farm system, but there is talent here. If Spencer Jones can put more pieces of the puzzle together while Roderick Arias/George Lombard Jr. continue their development, we’ll think differently by the end of the year. […]

Yankees MILB: A Look at the Spring Training Invitees

A look at the Yankees’ non-roster invite list for Spring Training. Remember that players on the 40-man roster do not appear on this list. Additionally, more players could eventually be in camp than what they announced. This is especially true early in camp, as many catchers are needed. You will always see prospects not on […]

Yankees MILB 9/25: Where are they now?

A look at the prospects the Yankees have traded/lost over the last several years. This list is comprehensive (in my opinion) but likely not complete. So many prospects are lost to minor league free agency or latch on somewhere after the Yankees release them. Impossible to keep up with all of them. The Jameson Taillon deal: RHP […]

Yankees MILB 9/24: The Finale

News: Thanks to everyone for reading. I say it every year: By the time we get to this point, I am ready for a break. Yes, there are fall and winter leagues to follow but I don’t pay as much attention. I certainly do not write full reports. I have a “Where are they now?” […]
