News: Nothing fit for print. Scranton (73-53) (Their game against Rochester was postponed. The lineup was released before the postponement and is below) 2B Caleb Durbin: 0-for-0 Is his size a detriment? Maybe, but we shouldn’t downgrade him on that alone.

News: The Yankees claimed OF Duke Ellis off waivers from the Mariners as they continue to stockpile speed options for the postseason. Note that just because they are adding these players doesn’t mean they will use them in the playoffs. It is good to have flexibility for the last roster spot. The Yankees are Ellis’ fourth organization […]

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 […]

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 […]
