A Biased Look at the New York Yankees, the Greatest Franchise in the History of Sports
[powered by WordPress.]
For a while, the Yankees haven’t had many bullets in the chamber when it comes to prospects. Trade deadline deal after trade deadline went down until the Yankees farm system was pretty much depleted. The only reason we didn’t further deplete the farm system in 2006 was because the Phillies were looking to dump Bobby Abreu’s salary so we got him for practically nothing.
Now, with two trades that have helped restock the Yankees minor league system, New York has some prospects worth keeping an eye on. In this article by Keith Law, the Yankees appear to be back and with guys like Philip Hughes and Jose Tabata waiting in the wings, the future for the Yankees looks pretty bright. In addition, with pickups like Humberto Sanchez and Ross Ohlendorf, the Tigers have some depth as well.
Good stuff and I think we’re getting someone to cover the Yankee’s minor league system in a blog. Should be a great daily read and I’ll let you know when it goes live.
