Yankees MILB 7/4: Everson Pereira Homers, Drives Home 3

Notes: Bonus baby outfielder Brando Mayea was moved from the 7-day injured list to the 60-day injured list. If he does come back in 2025, it will have to be in Low-A Tampa, as the FCL schedule will run out before he is eligible to come off the list. They can make it retroactive to May 31st. […]

Injury Log Scranton (43-35) (Defeated Worcester, 6-1) 2B Jorbit Vivas: 0-for-5 DH Jesus Rodriguez: 0-for-3, CS (5), BB, K A late slump crushed his June numbers: .247/.362/.315.

Yankees MILB 5/2: Spencer Jones Goes Yard

Notes: With Jazz Chisholm Jr. out until early-to-mid June or longer, the opportunity is there for Jorbit Vivas to make an impression. I won’t ignore the fact that it will eventually open a spot for DJ LeMahieu. Beyond that, your depth is Braden Shewmake (activated off the IL today and on the 40-man), Jake Gatewood, and Andrew Velazquez. If anyone dares to ask […]

Yankees MILB 8/7: Zach Messinger Tosses 7 Scoreless Innings

News: The Yankees have dipped in “organizational” prospect rankings. Do I worry about that? No. I thought they wouldn’t be very high on the preseason rankings. I consider the latest lists to be a market correction. Scranton (60-47) (Lead Lehigh Valley, 3-0, in the third inning. This game was suspended. Game 2 was postponed. These […]

Yankees MILB 7/25: Roderick Arias: Grand Slam

News: IF Caleb Durbin‘s rehab is already over (one plate appearance!) but it’s semantics. The Yankees moved him to Somerset today to continue rehabbing, though it won’t be labeled that way.

Yankees MILB 6/20: Spencer Jones: 2 Hits, RBI, SB, BB

News: OF Jasson Dominguez will miss at least eight weeks due to an oblique injury. That pushes his return to mid-August, where he will undoubtedly be rusty. He can still be one of the September call-ups, but we must be realistic about 2024 expectations. He hasn’t played much and the Yankees will likely be cautious. As […]
