Yankees MILB 6/25: Cam Schlittler: Cheat Code?

Notes: RHP Ben Hess, last year’s first-round pick, magically made his way back to the mound tonight after missing nearly a month for (?) reasons. Injury Log Scranton (40-34) (Defeated Worcester, 4-0) C Jesus Rodriguez: 0-for-4 Cam Schlittler ran into a little trouble in the 6th inning tonight (allowed three baserunners). Rodriguez helped out his battery […]

Yankees MILB 6/24: Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz Pitches Well

Notes: A trio of players made rehab appearances in the FCL today. None are on the Pipeline Top 30 list, though Facundo and Arias have received blurbs in the past on Fangraphs. OF JoJo Jackson was their 17th-round pick in the 2024 draft. He played in six games for Low-A Tampa last season, going 4-for-21 without an […]

Yankees MILB 6/22: Another Strong Effort for Griffin Herring

Notes: I have concluded that we aren’t receiving accurate roster updates from Hudson Valley. Today, they announced that OF Jace Avina was activated off the injured list. The problem? From what I can find, it was never announced that he was ever on the list. Keep that in mind while you wonder what the heck happened […]

Yankees MILB 6/21: Spencer Jones is Scorching

Notes: I wish I had something to offer you. Injury Log Scranton (37-34) (Defeated Louisville, 4-3, in ten innings) C Jesus Rodriguez: 1-for-4, BB .340/.423/.432 in 241 PA. Rodriguez has been in an extra-base hit drought lately (3, all doubles, in his last 13 games). 2B Jorbit Vivas: 1-for-4, CI, K CF Everson Pereira: 1-for-5, 3 K Pereira’s […]

Yankees MILB 6/20: Spencer Jones Continues Surge

Notes: Utilityman Pablo Reyes rejected his outright assignment and is a free agent. The Yankees have enough veteran utility types, so no big deal. Reyes didn’t have enough service time (2.096 years – you must have three) to reject the assignment, but another part of the rule states that you can reject it if you have […]

Yankees MILB 6/19: Carlos Lagrange Strikes Out 12

Notes: C Antonio Gomez was placed on the Development List for Somerset. Normally, I don’t care much about that list, but Gomez jumps out because he was, at one time, one of the top catching prospects in the system. Gomez’s bat has stalled. This season, he is hitting .140/.225/.168 (26 wRC+) in 121 plate appearances for […]

Yankees MILB 6/18: Roc Riggio, Spencer Jones Homer

Notes: Utilityman Pablo Reyes was outrighted to Scranton after clearing waivers. As a general reminder, I am not a scout. I don’t work for the Yankees. When I hype up someone like Jesus Rodriguez, I can’t tell you how the Yankees feel about him internally. Guess what? Nobody who writes or talks about these guys has any […]

Yankees MILB 6/17: Jesus Rodriguez is Rolling

Notes: Infielder Owen Cobb and infielder/outfielder Austin Green were placed on the injured list for Tampa. That likely explains the promotion of Santiago Gomez last week. Cobb, a 23-year-old signed as an undrafted free agent out of Stanford, is hitting .333/.385/.544 in 106 plate appearances. He is 11-for-14 stealing bases. Green, 23, was drafted in the 14th round in the […]

Yankees MILB 6/15: Brennen Davis Homers Again

Notes: SS Santiago Gomez was promoted from the FCL to Tampa today. The 21-year-old (yes, he was old for the FCL) was hitting .273/.356/.325 with a homer and 12 RBI in 90 plate appearances. Additionally, he stole 13 bases in 14 attempts. Last season, in 95 plate appearances, he put together a .321/.421/.420 line. From what […]
