Yankees MILB 5/29: Spencer Jones Returns
Notes: OF Spencer Jones, out since May 3rd due to an “intercostal injury,” returned to the Somerset lineup tonight. He joined Jazz Chisholm Jr., who is in Somerset on a rehab stint. Unfortunately, when someone comes off the injured list, someone has to go. The Yankees have released OF Grant Richardson. Drafted in the 17th round in […]

Notes: The Yankees elected not to add Cooper Hummel to the 26-man roster. He is now a free agent. LHP Brock Selvidge‘s rehab was moved from the FCL to Tampa. Injury Log Scranton (22-26) Their game against Nashville was cancelled and won’t be made up. T.J. Rumfield homered before the rain started, but it won’t count. Somerset (22-22) (Lost to […]

Notes: Some injury notes: LHP Brock Selvidge has started a rehab assignment in the FCL. He pitched 2.2 innings on Monday, allowing 2 runs (0 earned) on 3 hits with a walk and 2 strikeouts. Last year, he made 16 starts for Somerset, going 7-6 with a 4.25 ERA over 84.2 innings with an 80/43 […]

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 […]

Notes: I have nothing to offer you. Injury Log Scranton (18-18) (Split a doubleheader against Rochester) Game 1 (Won, 7-6, in 8 innings) DH Cooper Hummel: 1-for-4 The veteran was activated off the injured list today.

Notes: OF Jace Avina was placed on the 7-day injured list for Hudson Valley. The 21-year-old, acquired in December 2023 from the Brewers along with OF Brian Sanchez for OF Jake Bauers, is hitting .308/.443/.418 (154 wRC+) with a 15.7% BB and 22.6% K. He is Rule 5 eligible this winter. It’s Mother’s Day weekend. Expect […]

Notes: Outfielder Spencer Jones was placed on the injured list for Somerset, robbing us of a chance to see arguably the top two prospects in the system in the same lineup. In a related move, Christopher Familia was activated from the Development List. RP Scott Effross (yes, he does exist) is on a rehab stint in the FCL. Speaking of […]

Notes: Will the Yankees dodge a bullet with Clarke Schmidt? “Soreness in the side” is scary, but I hope so. The Yankees lack rotation depth. This should not come as a surprise to people who read these reports. The Triple-A rotation consists of prospects Zach Messinger and Sean Boyle, along with veterans Allan Winans, Brandon Leibrandt, Erick Leal, and Jake […]

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 […]

Notes: C Alex Jackson was activated off the injured list. He goes back to being the #3 catcher (#4 if you think Ben Rice would take on the responsibility). C/UTIL Jesus Rodriguez played in Game 2 of Scranton’s doubleheader tonight. I don’t know if he will stick with the squad or return to Somerset. OF Everson Pereira, who […]
