Yankees MILB 8/27: Spencer Jones’ Big Night
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: Nothing. Scranton (70-53) (Defeated St. Paul, 6-3) DH Caleb Durbin: 2-for-5, HR (6), 4 RBI, RS, K Durbin’s 3-run HR in the top of the 9th broke the 3-3 tie. His best for HR is 8, set in 105 games in 2022. He has 6 HR in 71 games this season. This is his 4th […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
