Jeter done with the Grape Fruit League, and other rumors & notes

Posted on March 22, 2013 by Rob Abruzzese
Derek Jeter

No big news today so we'll start with Derek Jeter. Yesterday I mentioned that he could start the season on the DL and that looks even more likely today. Jeter is done playing in Grape Fruit League games and if he does play again before the season starts it'll be with one of the minor league ...

"After this year, I will be retiring.” “The time is almost ending,” he added. “The little gas that I ...

Prospects most likely to break the top 100 this season

Posted on February 3, 2013 by Greg Corcoran
Jose Ramirez

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 ...

Banuelos coming back, Campos likely done for the year

Posted on July 23, 2012 by Rob Abruzzese

Two of the Yankees top pitching prospects, Manny Banuelos and Jose Campos, have been tied together this season for a very bad reason - both have been out with elbow problems. Both pitchers are attempting to rehab their elbows rather than have surgery and it looks as if both will avoid undergoing the knife. Banuelos has ...

Yankees have 4 on Sickels’ top 100 Prospect list

Posted on July 4, 2012 by Rob Abruzzese

The list is actually 120 long, but the four Yankees land in the top 100, or Top 82 as it were, so I am trying to play that up, but John Sickels of SB Nation just released his midseason top prospects list and four Yankees are on it. Gary Sanchez comes in as their top prospect ...

Romine headed to a back specialist, Campos to get MRI

Posted on May 5, 2012 by Rob Abruzzese

Part of the reason the Yankees were willing to risk the Jesus Montero deal was because they had another strong catching prospect in Austin Romine and were getting back a solid pitching prospect in Jose Campos from the Mariners. However, a little more than a month into the season neither player is rewarding the Yankees ...

BBDP April 6, 2012: Dellin Dealin’, Campos Cruisin’

Posted on April 7, 2012 by Greg Corcoran

BBDP MVP: Dellin Betances Triple-A Empire State vs. Lehigh Valley. L 5-6. L: Venditte (0-1) Brandon Laird: 1/4, RBI (.143) Colin Curtis: 1/4, K (.143) Francisco Cervelli: 0/4 (.000). I'm worried he might have taken this demotion really hard. Dellin Betances: 5 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, BB, 6 K (3.6 ERA). Excellent outing. The lack of walks is encouraging, ...

The Yankee Beat: Luxury tax, Cape Cod, and Jose Campos

Posted on April 4, 2012 by Rob Abruzzese

Today was the final day of spring training and the day the Yankees finally set their roster. Here was what the blogosphere was talking about. Bryan over at The Greedy Pinstripes had a good piece on gaming the luxury tax system. Mike Axisa of River Ave Blues ran down a list of some of the standouts from ...

In hindsight Pineda trade was not necessary

Posted on March 31, 2012 by Greg Corcoran

Count me among the people who thought that Brian Cashman had pulled a heist at the time of the Jesus Montero and Hector Noesi for Michael Pineda and Jose Campos deal. Hindsight is 20/20, but knowing what we know now it makes less sense. The Yankees went on to sign Hiroki Kuroda and Andy Pettitte, Noesi has ...
