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 […]

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.

Green, 23, was drafted in the 14th round in the […]

Notes: RHP Anthony DeSclafani has opted out of his contract, instantly signing with the Arizona Diamondbacks. It isn’t uncommon for a veteran on a minor league deal to do this. The Yankees could have added him to the 26-man roster, but there wasn’t a need. RHP McKinley Moore, as big of a project as you will […]
