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 […]

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.

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.

The race for the #1 seeds Can Auburn, Duke, or Houston blow a #1 seed this week? Not likely. Duke has done enough to keep their position, though a loss to the Georgia Tech/Virginia winner could drop them. Auburn has 16 Quadrant 1 wins and ranks #1 in Wins Above Bubble, which the committee looks at. […]

They are one of three “original” Division I schools with that distinction (Army, the Citadel). Elon has also never made it to the Big Dance. Returning Champion: […]
