Yankees MILB 5/31: Dillon Lewis’ Hot May Ends with a Homer

Notes: A lot of roster assignments in the DSL today in anticipation of their openers on Monday. I say openers because the Yankees have two Dominican Summer League (DSL) teams. If you are new to this, they do play each other during the season. One unique feature of the DSL is that the rosters do […]

Yankees MILB 5/17: Roc Riggio Homers Twice

Notes: The rumblings about Jesus Rodriguez are starting. I get it – the Yankees have an issue with offense at third base, and Rodriguez can further help balance the lineup. But is he a third baseman?  The Yankees have tried various positions with him. A natural catcher, he also has experience at 1B/2B (limited)/3B/LF. MLB Pipeline’s write-up […]

Yankees MILB 4/27: Rafael Flores Doubles, Homers

Notes: OF Everson Pereira is listed as active but hasn’t played since April 19th. Injuries are a part of Pereira’s story. He has never played in more than 102 games. His second-highest total is 82. You have to be available to be useful. George Lombard Jr. and Roderick Arias left their games early yesterday. Lombard Jr. was back in […]

Yankees MILB 4/25: Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz Strikes Out 12

Notes: Some pitching promotions to announce. LHP Will Brian and RHP Cole Ayers are coming to Somerset from Hudson Valley. RHP Tony Rossi was promoted from Tampa to Hudson Valley. In his debut season, the 25-year-old Rossi (undrafted free agent, 2024) was predictably overwhelming Low-A hitters (7.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 12 K). The 26-year-old Brian […]

Yankees MILB 4/8: Spencer Jones Homers

Notes: Nothing to report Scranton (5-4) Their game against Rochester was postponed. They will try to play two tomorrow. Somerset (1-3) (Lost a tough one to Reading, 5-4. Reading scored four runs in the top of the 9th to take the win) 3B Jesus Rodriguez: 0-for-4, K A tough 1-for-18 start to his campaign. CF Spencer […]

Yankees MILB 8/22: Jasson Dominguez: 2 More Hard Hits

News: Most of the time, roster crunches work themselves out. In 2024, that might not be the case for the Yankees. The first move was easy, as Oswald Peraza was demoted to make room for Jazz Chisholm Jr. However, it won’t get easier from here. Utilityman Jon Berti is about to begin a rehab stint, as is 1B Anthony […]

Yankees MILB 6/23: Carlos Narvaez Goes 5-for-5

News: The Yankees acquired 1B/3B J.D. Davis (and cash) from the Oakland Athletics for IF Jordan Groshans. The money will likely cover most (if not all) of what remains on Davis’ 1-year deal. It isn’t much. Davis is hitting .236/.304/.366 (98 wRC+) in 135 PA. He has four home runs and five runs batted in. Interesting. The defensive metrics […]
