Yankees MILB 8/20: Jasson Dominguez: 4 Hits

News: Nothing Scranton (69-50) (Defeated St. Paul, 9-4. A rare trip outside the Eastern timezone this week for Scranton. I believe they went to Omaha in 2023) 2B Caleb Durbin: 0-for-4, RS, 2 BB Durbin has 11 walks in 14 August games. CF Jasson Dominguez: 4-for-5, 3 RS, SB (9) Dominguez is 11-for-22 in his last […]

News: Nothing Scranton (68-49) (Lost to Buffalo, 9-1) 3B Jorbit Vivas: 0-for-4 2B Caleb Durbin: 0-for-3, SB (23), BB, K For Scranton: .299/.416/.469 in 259 PA (23-for-25 SB). Durbin will be in the mix for a 2025 job, and his ability to make contact (his swinging strike percentage is elite), steal bases, and play anywhere helps his […]

Yankees MILB 8/15: Jasson Dominguez’s 3-Hit Night

News: Last night, I said that you typically wait for a player to play a full game in the field before you put them on a “reinstate from rehab” watch. I was wrong about C Jose Trevino, who is back with the Yankees after catching for seven innings last night. I don’t think that matters. What […]

Yankees MILB 8/11: Spencer Jones Homers

News: Nothing.

The injury sucked but one has to be […]

Yankees MILB 8/6: Spencer Jones Continues Surge

News: Today was a mass promotion day. With that, more cuts were required. That is the harsh reality of minor-league baseball. The biggest name on the promotion list is George Lombard Jr., who is off to Hudson Valley. Last year’s first-round pick didn’t have overwhelming numbers (.232/.344/.348 (105 wRC+); 12.8% BB, 24% K, 30-for-34 SB) but […]

Yankees MILB 8/4: Spencer Jones Homers, Doubles Twice

News: Nothing. Scranton (60-47) (Defeated Louisville, 5-2.

DH Jasson Dominguez: 1-for-4, 2 RBI, RS, SB (4), K For Scranton: .302/.343/.460 in 67 PA. Since his most recent comeback from […]

Yankees MILB 8/1: Zach Messinger Goes 7 Strong

News: LHP Chasen Shreve was released from his contract for Scranton. Today is August 1st, so the odds are good that he had an opt-out. He pitched in ten games for Scranton, posting a 2.45 ERA in 11 innings. As I pointed out yesterday, RHP Nick Burdi has options. Today, his rehab stint ended and he was […]

Yankees MILB 7/31: Jesus Rodriguez: HR, 4 RBI

News: Brian Cashman said Jack Flaherty‘s medical records didn’t scare the Yankees. Without any evidence to support my theory, I think the Tigers and Yankees had a deal in place (whether the Cardinals were involved, who knows?). The Yankees saw the medicals and tried to amend the terms. The Tigers didn’t like the “secondary” prospects the […]

Yankees MILB 7/30: Spencer Jones Homers, Steals 2 Bases

News: The Yankees released IF Jeter Downs today, allowing him to sign in Japan.  Downs hit .264/.360/.498 (117 wRC+) in 274 plate appearances for Scranton. The Yankees signed Brett Phillips to a minor-league deal. They signed him as a pitcher, which could be fun. Phillips’ best attribute as a position player was his Immaculate Grid game, as he appeared […]

Yankees MILB 7/24: Rafael Flores Walks it Off

News: The Yankees are signing their draftees. As always, some required extra money to sign while others required less. You can find a full list in many places. I don’t need to rehash it. New talent is coming to try to break their 18-year World Series drought in 2027. Scranton (53-44) (Split a doubleheader against […]
