Yankees MILB 8/17: Ben Hess: 6 Scoreless Innings

Notes: Trade analysis links: Jose Caballero/Camilo Doval (link) David Bednar/Jake Bird (link) Ryan McMahon (link) Amed Rosario (link) Austin Slater (link) SS Jackson Lovich isn’t in Scranton after all. My “gut” was telling me that it was a weird assignment, but I also know teams sometimes move players to advanced levels if they have an emergency need. Anyway, erase that from […]

Yankees MILB 7/26: 3 Hits for George Lombard Jr.

Notes: In case you missed it, here is my article on the Ryan McMahon transaction. As stated yesterday, Hudson Valley has lost a lot of pitching lately. Today, RHP Gage Ziehl was moved up from Tampa. He made his debut during the game. Earlier in the season, he made an emergency start for Somerset. Ziehl was their […]

Yankees MILB 7/25: Jesus Rodriguez Extends Hitting Streak

Notes: In case you missed it, here is my article on the Ryan McMahon transaction. A day after hitting 1,200+ feet of home runs, OF Spencer Jones was out of tonight’s lineup due to back spasms. The Yankees are unlikely to mess with this, but as someone who has back spasms, I know how they can come […]

Yankees MILB 7/11: The Spencer Jones Show Continues

Notes: From an article on The Athletic, the Yankees are transitioning former top catching prospect Antonio Gomez to pitching. Gomez, who is already Rule 5 eligible, supposedly is touching 100 MPH during workouts. In my opinion, which was wrong (though I don’t mind admitting it), Gomez was the most intriguing catching prospect they had a few years […]

Yankees MILB 7/10: Griffin Herring Dominates

Notes: If you didn’t enjoy RHP Cam Schlittler‘s MLB debut, it’s time for a new hobby. Like Luis Gil, his ability to overpower hitters stands out. Is he rough around the edges? Of course. His control and command are a work in progress, and he is still refining his secondary pitches (beyond his MLB-ready slider/sweeper). However, throwing […]

Yankees MILB 7/6: Spencer Jones Launches a Bomb

Notes: The Yankees traded veteran catcher Alex Jackson to the Orioles for international bonus pool money. Yesterday, the Yankees released Ronaldo Hernandez. Their catching depth has taken a (minor) hit, but they are comfortable with Ben Rice. Their Scranton depth now consists of Jesus Rodriguez and Edinson Duran, a 22-year-old who has appeared in three games this season. Rafael Flores and Omar Martinez provide […]

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. […]
