Yankees MILB 6/2: George Lombard Jr. Reaches Base 4 Times

Top 30 Prospects  Injury Log Notes: Nobody likes to see “Aaron Judge” and “shoulder injury” in the same sentence, but here we are. If the injured list is in his future, Spencer Jones is the obvious replacement. RHP Carlos Lagrange being moved to the bullpen makes sense, whether it is permanent or not. If the goal is for […]

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.
