Time to wrap up the season strong.

Cashman told Accorsi, “I feel the responsibility of millions of Yankee fans on my shoulders, fans who take this very seriously and for which every game is very important. I think of that every day.”
Just a reminder I will be twittering during today's doubleheader. Sean Black and Adam Warren will be on the mound.

GCL Yankees as a team just stop hitting for the most part.

Brett Gerritse made his debut finally.
damn the phills signed singleton? good for them

Gerritse 2.0 2 0 0 0 1 0 0.
SI Yankees up 2-0 in the second. Follow at www.twitter.com/BabyBombers
SI up 3-0, 4 consecutive doubles score the 3 runs. The first of those doubles by Mack, who has been hitting really well.
AJax 1 for 2 with a triple, 2 RBIs. Scranton up 6-1 in the first game of a DH. Igawa on the mound vs. Pawtucket.
David Adams was 2 for 4 with 2 doubles, 3 RBIs as Tampa wins. Verditte won the game but cuffed around a bit.
At SI, Warren has pitched 4 innings of scoreless baseball, having allowed 2 hits, striking out 4 and no bases on balls. To this point, his ERA is 0.87.
Montero - 1 for 1 with an RBI. Nunez with a hit as well as Trenton leads 1-0. Montero now up to .317.
Warren through 5 - still only 2 hits and no walks.
Warren through 6, 3 hits, no walks, 4 K's. Hmm...
Call him up! He's been pretty good any chance he finishes in A ball or maybe starts next year in Tampa?
I am getting the gun readings and pitch counts on the starters for each game. Follow along on twitter for the live updates. I update as it happens.
Any chance he can start next week in Toronto?
Well well well, judd hirsh.
Nice little outing, might have to give you a start one of these days in the Bronx.
Fistpumping like a champion.
Where on twitter?

Warren was apparently sitting 92, hitting 96.... terrible draft choice... little to no upside...
Senior in College = no upside at all.
"If we have to, we'll hoard everybody. That's what the Yankees used to do."
“Most lineups will hate facing our pitching and most pitching will hate facing our lineup,”
I wonder is Warren is past the 30 day mark.
That's what I was wondering about too. Does the time begin when you get signed, start throwing period, or when you first get into games?
I will start my player features up sometime soon and I plan on doing one on Warren. I might hold off on the Vizcaino features since everyone is basically doing one on him.
Warren has been getting better each time out. He was a young senior in college and is one of those that can still improve. Adam is expected to be a fast riser in the farm system, likely starting out next season in Tampa. His velocity is getting better as is his control. A pitcher with command of four-pitches and good velocity is defenatly not a terrible draft choice.
I personally really like Warren also. It would be nice if the Yankees started him in tampa next year, or promoted him there now. He doesn't walk anyone and gets lots of groundballs, a very effective skillset.
btw rpimpsner can you accept my request on twitter to follow you? my account there is also Yankee82093.
Already done. I dont think the Yankees will promote him this year, especially with the likely hood he could get more experience in the playoffs. With the season series with Brooklyn over these guys just got through their first big rivalary experience as pros.
Viz: 5 innings, two hits, two walks, 6 strikeouts, 4-5 GB/FB, 0 ER. Studly. I'm officially changing my position from ManBan to Viz.
Murton is starting to hammer.
I am going to let you guys decide the first feature I will write.
Arodys Vizcaino
Adam Warren
Francisco Rondon
Neil Medchill
DeAngelo Mack
Kyle Higashioka
If you remember those old ads from the 80s, "Nobody beats the Viz"
I have to check out the highlights on MILB.tv when it's archived.
In Scranton, AJax might be snapping out of his recent slump - 2 hits, 2 RBIs vs the Pawsox tonight... and a solid start from Josh Towers.
Warren first pitching for SI was July 1st. He has pitched on schedule since then without missing a start. Since he has just passed the 30 day mark pitching with his own technique, one has to wonder if the Yankees will interrupt him now to break him down, or if they feel that they have already been able to do that in sideline sessions.
Royal Flush: Hughes, Sabathia, Betances, Brackman, Banuelos.
In order my interests are
#1 Medchill
#2 Warren
#3 Vizcaino
Royal Flush: Hughes, Sabathia, Betances, Brackman, Banuelos.
with vizcaino only few months older than me, he looks like he could improve in his overall velocity as the time goes.. not to mention he'll be more consistent in command/control as the time goes
so present Vizcaino + improving command + improving stuff + more experience = next Pedro???
Marge Simpson: The plant called and said if you don't
come in tomorrow, don't bother coming in Monday.
Homer Simpson: Woo hoo! A four-day weekend.
I'd love to read Mack then Warren, Higashioka
I'd go this order too. I like Medchill and Vizcaino both better than those three but I rarely see anything on them and I'm interested to learn about them.
David Adams is certainly having himself an under the radar season.
Fistpumping like a champion.
Mack is doing just as well as Medchill, but isn't as profiled because of less power.
Hughes2.50
The clock probably starts when they show up and not right with the first start.
Maybe. In that case Warren is well past the 30 days where the Yankees shutdown newly drafted pitchers to break down their technique.
Royal Flush: Hughes, Sabathia, Betances, Brackman, Banuelos.
So according to Rob, he's getting better in each start, he's sitting 92, hitting 96. And we're going to break down his technique? Why? Because they always do? Do we have ton of actual proof that their technique breakdowns have paid off in a lot of cases?
They took Joba from sitting 92 and topping at 94 to sitting 96 and topping at 100 before injury
Haven't talked with Alan yet, but here's his line for the day--
5.0 IP/ 1 H/ 0 R/ 0 ER/ 3 BB/ 3 K/ 0 HR
I know he was on about a 60 pitch day today so I'm figuring he must have been pretty efficient to log 5 complete.
Would Alan have any issues throwing in relief?
Calmer than you are.
Do we have any actual evidence of this, I feel as though some people on the forum who watched him at Nebraska felt that at the end of his career there, his velocity was 94-96.
All I can tell you is I've always heard Alan answer that question with "I want to pitch in the big leagues---whatever it takes".
I've also heard him say that decision is not in his hands, he'll do whatever he has to to get there.
Joba threw high 90's before he was drafted...by his own admission.
Lots of ncie stuff to read in that first interview actually. How he compares himself to Zambrano and how his biggest weakness is 2nd guessing. He was very honest.
"Owning the Yankees," Steinbrenner once said, "is like owning the Mona Lisa."
That's a pretty promising line - even with the 3 walks. I'm sure he can tell you how he felt - which at this point is far more important than the results - and what pitches he threw.
At some point I'd expect they'll bump him up when his arm strength is where they want it, and when he has feel of his breaking stuff
Alan and Manny Barreda were both lights out today.
Barreda 2 IP 2 K's good to see that he's on his way back. Next year will be a big year for him.
