Yankees MILB 4/22: Brendan Beck is Cruising

Notes: Yoendrys Gomez being designated for assignment surprised me. I thought that Ryan Yarbrough would be the first long reliever on the chopping block, but that wasn’t the case. Can Gomez get through waivers?  I have learned through the years that I am terrible at perceived value. I see a talented kid. Others may see damaged goods. Furthermore, […]

Yankees MILB 8/15: Jasson Dominguez’s 3-Hit Night

News: Last night, I said that you typically wait for a player to play a full game in the field before you put them on a “reinstate from rehab” watch. I was wrong about C Jose Trevino, who is back with the Yankees after catching for seven innings last night. I don’t think that matters. What […]

Yankees MILB 7/23: Spencer Jones Homers

News: UTIL Caleb Durbin has started a rehab assignment in Tampa. He hasn’t played since May 23rd, so he missed two months after being HBP. Before that unfortunate injury, he hit .299/.413/.458 in 215 PA with 20 stolen bases in 22 attempts. Is there time for him to make an MLB impact? Sure, but I doubt […]

Yankees MILB 6/29: Cam Schlittler Ks 7

News: C/1B Josh Breaux was released. The 2nd round pick in the 2018 draft showed off his trademark power at times (69 HR, .457 SLG in 326 games) but the rest of his game didn’t develop. Injuries didn’t help in his progression. C/1B Josue Gonzalez was moved from the FCL to Tampa. After a spectacular 2023 […]

Yankees MILB 5/22: Caleb Durbin Walks it Off

News: There is no news that is fit for print. Scranton (30-16) (Walked it off against Syracuse, 12-10. They came back from 6-1 and 10-6 deficits. Triple-A is insane. No lead should ever be considered safe) 2B Caleb Durbin: 4-for-5, 2B (16), HR (3), 4 RBI, 3 RS, SAC Durbin walked it off with a 2-run […]
