Yankees MILB 8/2: Francisco Vilorio Homers Twice

News: Since the Olympics are front and center, the last few days with the “thrill of victory” (promotions) and the “agony of defeat” (releases). It’s the unfortunate reality of prospect-watching.

Yankees MILB 7/28: Brandon Lockridge: 3 BB, 3 SB

News: We are nearing August 1st and haven’t seen any “mass promotions” yet. That will likely happen after the deadline. Because we no longer have short-season leagues, promotions come with cuts. It is a harsh reality. While Agustin Ramirez, Jared Serna, and Abrahan Ramirez were in no danger of being cut, Brian Cashman is considering many angles with […]

Yankees MILB 7/28: Tyler Hardman’s Big Night

News: The Yankees have their reasons for everything but I am befuddled by how Oswald Peraza is being handled. That’s all I am going to say about that (I said enough about it on Twitter). Scranton (46-51; 12-10 in the second half) (Lost to Buffalo, 12-2) CF Estevan Florial: 3-for-4, 2B (16), 2 RBI, BB, CS […]
