Yankees MILB 4/29: Strong Outing by Cade Smith
Top 30 Prospects Injury Log Notes: RHP Elmer Rodriguez pitched well enough in his debut. He had some control issues, which isn’t as unexpected as they tried to make it seem. Rodriguez owned a 9.0% walk rate in Triple-A this season, which is average-ish. It should have surprised nobody that he walked some hitters in his […]

Top 30 Prospects Injury Log Notes: I have nothing to offer, beyond wondering who comes up if Giancarlo Stanton goes on the injured list. Jasson Dominguez is the obvious choice if you can guarantee playing time. If not, it will be someone they throw at the end of the bench until Anthony Volpe is ready. Oswaldo Cabrera and Max Schuemann are on the […]

My thoughts on Core Jackson. Arizona Fall League Players The Yankees and Rays completed the Jose Caballero transaction today, as the Bronx Bombers sent Low-A outfielder Marshall Toole to the Rays. Toole feels like a Rays-type prospect, […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
