Notes: Trade analysis links: Jose Caballero/Camilo Doval (link) David Bednar/Jake Bird (link) Ryan McMahon (link) Amed Rosario (link) Austin Slater (link) Updated look at the trade deadline. 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, […]

Yankees MILB 9/7: George Lombard Jr.: 2 Doubles

Notes: Trade analysis links: Jose Caballero/Camilo Doval (link) David Bednar/Jake Bird (link) Ryan McMahon (link) Amed Rosario (link) Austin Slater (link) My thoughts on Core Jackson. “What happens when the season ends?” I will provide some content, but not every day.

Yankees MILB 9/2: Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz: 6 Shutout Innings

Notes: Trade analysis links: Jose Caballero/Camilo Doval (link) David Bednar/Jake Bird (link) Ryan McMahon (link) Amed Rosario (link) Austin Slater (link) My thoughts on Core Jackson. Nothing to report. Maybe they move someone from Hudson Valley to Somerset for the final week of the Double-A season, but, for the most part, I wouldn’t expect newsworthy items over the final few […]

Yankees MILB 8/30: Brendan Beck Strikes out 9

Notes: Trade analysis links: Jose Caballero/Camilo Doval (link) David Bednar/Jake Bird (link) Ryan McMahon (link) Amed Rosario (link) Austin Slater (link) My thoughts on Core Jackson. A question I received last night was about Hans Montero and Willy Montero and their prospect status. Hans is one of the most expensive players in the system. He cost $1.7M and was handed the organization’s highest […]

Yankees MILB 6/22: Another Strong Effort for Griffin Herring

Notes: I have concluded that we aren’t receiving accurate roster updates from Hudson Valley. Today, they announced that OF Jace Avina was activated off the injured list. The problem? From what I can find, it was never announced that he was ever on the list. Keep that in mind while you wonder what the heck happened […]

Yankees MILB 6/11: George Lombard Jr.’s Big Night

Notes: The Yankees released OF Christopher Familia. I talk about “cult followings” because it is fun to watch an unheralded prospect get some love. In 2023, that player was Familia. He hit 22 home runs in 68 games between Tampa and Hudson Valley, putting up a strong .307/.378/.617 line. Injuries and ineffectiveness have plagued him since […]

Yankees MILB 6/5: Jesus Rodriguez Reaches Base 5 Times

Notes: RHP Justin Lange (remember him?) started a rehab assignment today in the FCL. Acquired by the Yankees from the Padres for 1B Luke Voit (remember him?) back in 2022, Lange has dealt with wildness and injuries during his Yankees tenure. Today was his first appearance since August 29, 2023. He split time with Tampa and Hudson Valley […]
