BBDP Preview: Tampa Yankees
The Tampa Yankees were dubbed the "team to watch" in the Yankees farm system by Baseball Prospectus. I can't say I agree, but nonetheless there are a number of players who will at least start the season at High-A Tampa who prospect enthusiasts will want to keep an eye on. Without further adieu, I bring ...
2013 Preview: Charleston RiverDogs
The Charleston RiverDogs announced their opening day roster today, so they will be profiled here instead of the Tampa Yankees. The Tampa Yankees will be done when they announce their roster. There are a few surprises but not many, and there were also a few omissions that turned out to be a surprise. All in ...

2013 BBDP Breakout Candidate: Austin Aune
Age: 19 Height: 6-foot-2 Weight: 190-pounds Bats: Left Throws: Right Position: SS vs. OF BBDP Rank: 31 In 2011 the Yankees drafted Sam Stafford with their 2nd round draft pick. He didn't sign because he had shoulder issues and was not as healthy as advertised. As a result of that, the Yankees received a compensation pick in the 2012 2nd round. They ...
BBDP Top 50 prospects: Preseason Edition
This post is a little bit redundant because not much has changed since the 2012 post season top 50 was released back in September. Some things have changed since then and it's time to take a step back and re-evaluate the rankings from September. It's also a good time to alter the rankings based on ...

2013 Trenton Thunder Preview: Four stars and seven more with hope
Yes, the title of this article references US history, but watching the Thunder play this year will be nothing like reading a boring 8th grade text book. There may not be a single team in the entire minors with more top 100 prospects. The most amazing part of it all is that the depth doesn't ...

2013 Preview: Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders
Coming off what must have been a miserable 2012 season where they were never the home team, the Scranton Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (formerly the Yankees) will finally get their home field games back this season. Last year, despite the season on the road, they had a fine season and managed to win their division. Don't ask ...

Yankees minor league injury updates: Banuelos, Williams, and Campos
A couple of injury updates from some of the Yankees top prospects. • Manny Banuelos (BBD No. 1) had Tommy John Surgery back in October and has finally begun throwing, per Dan Barbarisi of the Wall Street Journal. • Mason Williams (BBD No. 3), recovering from shoulder surgery, told Anthony McCarron of the NY Daily News that he'll be ...
Prospects most likely to break the top 100 this season
MILB.com just released their top 100 prospects, and three Yankees are on it; Gary Sanchez, Mason Williams, and Tyler Austin. Slade Heathcott was missing from the list, but he deserves to be on it. This got me thinking about which Yankees prospects have a shot at breaking the top 100 this season. Slade Heathcott is ...

10 Players who could make $189 million in 2014 more palatable

BBDP Rankings: Top five catchers
The catching depth in this organization took a hit after the 2012 season when it was announced that both Greg Bird and Christopher Breen would be moved off the position. The Yankees are still one of the best in the league in terms of catching depth. They possess one of the best catching prospects in ...
