The Yankees have one of the best minor league systems in baseball. It’s strong at the top with Top Prospects like Jasson Dominguez and Spencer Jones, but also incredibly deep. The Yankees Complex League team was among the most talented teams in the entire minor leagues. There will be several Major Leaguers that emerge from that team – some could be impact players.
While the hitting side of the equation is strong, the pitching side is not far behind. They have a number of pitchers that should be ready to contribute in New York next season. Drew Thorpe was excellent with one of the best change-up/slider combinations I saw all year. Will Warren and Chase Hampton have a mid-rotation upside.
The larger question is how many of the 27 prospects on this list will stay with the Yankees long enough to wear pinstripes? I hope many of them will, as the Yankees can remake their Major League team over the next few years with a core of high-end homegrown players.
