2018 Yankees Minor League News & Notes

[Snatch Catch]

Big kudos to our Amateur Scouting Department for finding this special arm out of a small school in SC. 97.6 FB with big finish thru the zone. Also flashes two plus pitches in CB and CH. Certainly a pitcher to watch as he progresses thru our system. pic.twitter.com/hwcMZpvfA9

What really awesome about that Myatt video is that you can see on the right hand screen that they have the data from every single pitch he threw in that outing delineated to a corresponding video. Very granular information and organization. That's pretty cool.

Not bad considering this is his third best pitch. 87.1 mph same side CH. Looking forward to watching this stud march towards New York. pic.twitter.com/rhJI1M7g5A

That one I think is Luis Medina? Really excited to have some of these guys like Abreu and Freicer Perez and Medina hopefully break out this year (I know those three are at very different levels).

Man, it would be great if one of these 3 makes it to the Bronx in the next couple of seasons.

Had the chance to see some side work...No gun readings but his FB had Impressive sink. Thick build, Heavy legs...

One of everyone's favorite sleepers:

88.4 mph CH with ridiculous action. CB has all the makings of being a plus Major League pitch. And, FB took a big leap forward this year, averaging just north of 93 and peaking at 97. Has all the ingredients to be one of the top prospects in the entire game. Just turned 19. pic.twitter.com/sQxiEZRdTE

I like him and Deivi a lot more than Abreu, Freicer Perez and Medina.

If Abreu is healthy he looks like a special prospect. Big "IF" I know.

This kid did not touch 95 until his last few outings in college and averaged just above 91. Post 2018 draft, he peaked at 98 and averaged 94.4. This one registered at 96.9. Just your typical 4th round pick who had 12.1 K/9. Lastly, to be nice... his name is Frank German. pic.twitter.com/84aCH8g9w1

Had the chance to see Frank this season and came away very impressed. I think he will Jump two levels this year.

Congrats to 19 year old Deivi Garcia on cracking his first top 100 list:

[Snatch Catch]

Yankees have 3 pitchers who "officially" touched 100 in 2018 according to BA: Abreu, Medina, and Gil

https://www.baseballamerica.com/stor...eases-in-2018/

This is the fourth time we’ve compiled the list of the Century Club–pitchers who threw at least one pitch 100 mph or harder. To make the list, we have to have credible reporting from a scout, a coach or a club official who has logged the velocity with a radar gun, TrackMan or a similar verification. We will add to this list if we receive further credible reports, but even if we get a few more additions, this year will have the fewest 100 mph pitchers in the minors in the past three seasons.

As per Heyman ,Yanks Billy Burns..OF'er

[Yankyfan]

Very surprised we haven't signed a Vet Milb starter or two... I guess we have time..
