Yankees MILB 6/12: Cam Schlittler Ks 7

Notes: RHP Anthony DeSclafani has opted out of his contract, instantly signing with the Arizona Diamondbacks. It isn’t uncommon for a veteran on a minor league deal to do this. The Yankees could have added him to the 26-man roster, but there wasn’t a need. RHP McKinley Moore, as big of a project as you will […]

Yankees MILB 6/10: Pitching Rules the Night

Notes: RHP Bryce Cunningham‘s return from the injured list was short-lived, as he is back on the list after only one start. Cunningham has arguably impressed the most from last year’s pitching class, compiling a 1.93 ERA (3.33 FIP) over 46.2 innings with a 25.7% K, 6% BB, and 45.4% GB. The Yankees released veteran LHP […]

Notes: I have nothing to report. Injury Log Scranton (28-30) (Defeated St. Paul, 5-1) C Jesus Rodriguez: 1-for-4, BB, K Reaching base twice in five plate appearances feels like a “meh” night for Rodriguez. He is 8-for-21 (.381) with four doubles in his last six games. 3B Jorbit Vivas: 1-for-3, BB LF Everson Pereira: 1-for-4, K 1B […]

Yankees MILB 6/1: Cam Schlittler Tosses 5 Shutout Innings

Notes: RHP Jake Woodford triggered his May 31st opt-out and is now a free agent. Most veteran players include various opt-out clauses in their spring training and minor league deals. The opt-outs are a way to force the MLB team to either add them to the 26-man roster or let them go. On occasion, the player […]

Yankees MILB 5/25: George Lombard Jr. Reaches Base 4 Times

Notes: The Yankees elected not to add Cooper Hummel to the 26-man roster.  He is now a free agent. LHP Brock Selvidge‘s rehab was moved from the FCL to Tampa. Injury Log Scranton (22-26) Their game against Nashville was cancelled and won’t be made up. T.J. Rumfield homered before the rain started, but it won’t count. Somerset (22-22) (Lost to […]

Yankees MILB 5/18: Rafael Flores Homers Again

Notes: RHP JT Brubaker started his latest rehab stint in Hudson Valley today. Acquired for infield prospect Keiner Delgado in April 2024, Bruaker hasn’t been able to stay healthy. He tossed only 16.2 innings in the Yankees system last year. The difference between Brubaker and Scott Effross and Clayton Beeter is that Brubaker is out of options.  Once the rehab is […]

Yankees MILB 5/17: Roc Riggio Homers Twice

Notes: The rumblings about Jesus Rodriguez are starting. I get it – the Yankees have an issue with offense at third base, and Rodriguez can further help balance the lineup. But is he a third baseman?  The Yankees have tried various positions with him. A natural catcher, he also has experience at 1B/2B (limited)/3B/LF. MLB Pipeline’s write-up […]
