Forum: Around The Minors

I was just wondering, in light of Lily's great performance today, and even El Duquecito's for that matter, what will the Yanks do when Parker is healthy? Maybe let him strut his stuff down(up) at AAA?

Brett Jodie is a big right hander that has been in the yankees system for 3 years,and has pitched well atevery level thus far.He has good stuff and does not rattle under pressure. I believe he will be called very soon.

Spencer Dh'd in Columbus last night and went 0-4 The great Andy Morales is now hitting 160 in AA Ryan Bradley has a 4.91 era in AA Adrian Hernandez's line last night: 6 innings, 2 er, 8 k's- he has 3.24 era this season for Columbus Jimenez is hitting 233 Nick Johnson is hitting 211

I just did a little research on Donzell. He's a switch-hitting 25 yr. old speedy Center Fielder. He sounds like just what we need right now. He was going to make the roster over H-Rod, but came down with a groin injury (which is now healed). In the Arizona Fall League last year he made the All Prospect List. In 127 AB he hit .354, led the League in hits with 45, 5 triples, 18BB, 18 SB, 29 runs scored with an OBP of .435 and SLG of .543. Why don't we replace H-Rod with Donzell now that...

Can someone tell me how many years a player can be optioned?I was sure it was 3 untill mcdonald was optioned for the forth time this spring.The papers are saying Spencer has 1 left, so I have no idea

I notice Morales is still in extended spring and will be assigned to class AA Norwich.Is this because he is out of playing shape, or is he a dud?

Scot's Intro & Welcome was great and came Well Heard over MSG! Remember He was Mentioned here Earlier (Yankees 88th round Draft Pick of '96) !? Well when Joe put him in! I was Yelling & Cheering from My Armchair at home! And then the Cheering was picked up once his debut announcement was made on the diamondscreen! Wow The Enthusiam was Fantastic!

IP H R ER BB SO HR ERA S.Fernandez 2.0 3 3 3 2 3 1 13.50 I know this season is just starting the team but i thought it was funny.I clicked on "stats" and guess who's leading the International league in walks?

does anyone know the best way to keep tabs on the clippers and how nick johnson, henson and all of them are doing this year? is there a website or something that covers the minors in depth? thanks

Did I dream this, or is Seabol now the record holder for lowest draft pick to ever make the majors? I think it will never be broken - - they don't draft that many rounds any more......... anyone else remember hearing something like that? If it's true, he's my new hero. Maybe we can start a fan club?

CINCINNATI – The Cincinnati Reds sold pitcher Ed Yarnall to the Orix Blue Wave of the Japanese Pacific League on Monday for $300,000. The left-hander came to the Reds on July 12 from the New York Yankees as part of the deal for left-hander Denny Neagle. The Reds initially considered Yarnall a contender for this year's rotation, but he appeared in only five innings this spring before being sent to the minors. It's the second year in a row that the Reds have sold a pitcher to Japan. They...

I saw him play for Norwich several times last year and it's great for the kid to get the opportunity to be on the opening day roster.

I certainly hope so. From what I saw of him in '99 I think he may be the heir to Brosius at 3rd or even moving him to 2nd and shifting Soriano to 3rd. He seemed to have lots of poise and hit the ball to all fields.

has anyone else heard he was sent to the minors???
