At 20 years old, he could be a future hall of famer or ....... Frank Fernandez.

Will he be in the Florida league, I guess?

I like the guy they got from the Phillies. I hope to follow him in Scranton.

I can deal with Gary Sanchez going in any package deal that improves the big club overall.

I can deal with anyone taking Gary Sanchez....period. The Yanks have tried to deal him, but have you seen him catch? He can't catch. No one wants him. Oh, and he's not a very good hitter.

Yea I guess he will start in Tampa but it would be awesome if he could jump up to HV some time during the season. His POP time is off the Charts they say..

The Yankees have made a groundbreaking hire in their minor league ranks, as The Athletic’s Lindsey Adler (Twitter link) reports that Rachel Balkovec will manage the organization’s lower-A team in Tampa next season. Balkovec will become the first woman to ever manage an affiliated minor league club.

👏👏👏

I think it's a solid move. I read an article on her back when she was originally hired that she also studied Spanish, so to better communicate to the Latin America players in the language they are most comfortable.

still walking close to 4 guys per 9, even in the Mexican league? Could just be depth for Somerset and/or Scranton, I doubt we'll see him in NY. Another Garcia?

21 pitchers in the top 34 that's about 65%. wow - if we can just see a couple of those guys pan out in the next year or two it'll sure give me lots of hope.

3 shortstops in the top 5. hmmm ha! I wonder why they didn't sign Seager or Carrea? Maybe they'll spend some money on Story and stick him @ 3B when one of these young studs is ready to make a name for himself. My money's on Oswald Peraza.

If they add this Arias IFA, I bet Volpe's trade bait.

Sorry to see Gilliam signed with the Reds.. A bit thin at !b in the system. I could see Chapparo maybe moving over.
The Yanks signed Ryan Weber as well . A spin rate guy...low 90s FB..
