I haven't heard or saw anything that he would have been suspended or released about.

[rpimpsner]

I am live now on GothamBaseball.com for the live game chat, I will also be doing a live chat tomorrow starting at 7pm. Log on now to ask questions.

[yoo-boo]

What do you think of Chase Whitney? Although his stuffs are not top notch, his makeup and toughness makes him pitch so effective. I would like to rush him up this year in order to get a real test.

RAB liked O'Brien. I start to like him but still not sure if he will be able to stay in the rotation for 5 plus years.

Thanks, I just saw the transaction online. I will be doing another live game chat sometime soon.

Listen to tonight's SI Yanks game on BrooklynCyclones.com with the great Warner Fussell doing the play by play

[mbn007]

Good to see them back over .500. Roller is starting to rake. He should do well there, but, like Kyle Larsen a few years ago, this might be his limit as far as a pro goes.

Yep. Organizational fodder.

Not really a surprise he's been on thin ice for a while and hasn't been performing well at all.

SI YANKEES TAKE OVER FIRST AFTER SWEEPING BROOKLYN

BROOKLYN, NY - The Staten Island Yankees ended their week off right completing a sweep of the cross-town rival Brooklyn Cyclones on the road at MCU Park in Coney Island. With the victory the Yankees took over possession of first place in the McNamara Division.

Considering their slow start, this is indeed a surprise that they turned it around so quick.

The big thing is the bats are starting to come around. Basically for the first couple of weeks the middle of the lineup has been silent. Also the defense has gotten better.

Yankees still use 30 days free style trial for college players?

Yep they still do use the 30-day rule

[rpimpsner]

BTW everyone Nik Turley will be starting tonight for the Staten Island Yankees, taking the spot of Wilton Rodriguez.

[rpimpsner]

Eduardo Sosa
Kyle Roller
Jose Mojica
Kelvin De Leon
Mikey O'Brien
Nik Turley

Those are the player features I am planning on doing soon, I will let you know when I am in the process of actually writing them.

Let the prospects do what they were taught in HS/college in the first 30 days.

Nik Turley is on the hill tonight for the Staten Island Yankees, I will be getting plenty of photographs from tonight's game

[rpimpsner]

SOSA IMPRESSING SO FAR THIS SEASON

"I’m glad he’s my center fielder,” that is what Staten Island Yankees reliever Mike Recchia had to say when asked about his thoughts on Eduardo Sosa.

http://www.gothambaseball.com/2010/0...r-this-season/

[dpbddd99]

Badler on Sosa: Very interesting sleeper. Not a big guy, not a lot of power, but he handles the bat well for a 19-year-old.

[rpimpsner]

I just put up a temp photo gallery of the 2010 Staten Island Yankees, Tuesday I will be working on the actual photo gallery with photos of the team at home and on the road.

A better outing by O'Brien today. Six innings, four hits, no runs, and three strike outs.

A better outing by O'Brien today. Six innings, four hits, no runs, and three strike outs.

He has been the ACE all season for the Yankees. I believe his last outing was his only really bad one. He did struggle in his start in mid-July, about 3 starts ago, but the only really bad one was last time out - I believe he had like 5 BBs.

I got the final interview for my feature on Mikey O'Brien and also started with the interviews for my feature on Jose Mojica. Check back soon, take a look at the photo galleries on GothamBaseball.com for some great action shots of the SIYanks

Nice article on Turley. Interesting to note the Yankees efforts to sign him.
