The Official 2012-2013 Yankees Prospect Thread

[Webslinger]

Contreras is gone as the pitching coordinator. Kind of makes sense given the Yank's minor league pitching struggles the last few years... At least as it comes for starters.

I'm glad he was able to work his magic on as many young pitchers as he did while he was here.

I'm surprised nobody posted the new BA rankings. I haven't seen em but heard Mason Williams is our new number one.

What sites are you looking at for their stats?

What sites are you looking at for their stats?

Twitter feed's mostly.

But here's one link.

For the entire league:

For these, you got to look at 2012 offseason league

David Adams: From twitter feeds he's been heating up of late. .325BA and 1.088OPS over his last 10 games

http://mlb.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats....pbp&pid=458691

Slade Heathcott- 2nd in BA .388, 2nd in OPS 1.106: Batting .500 over his last 10 with a 1.2ish OPS

http://mlb.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats....pbp&pid=571761

Romine seems a little disappointing, .222BA but he's got a .342 OBP, so at least he's got some plate displine.

This is the team they are on:

Romine sucking.

I really like Heathcott, I wouldn't be surprised if he passed Williams as the best prospect at some point. He has such great potential, hopefully he doesn't get injured again.

[nyyfan4life]

Heathcott, if everything goes right (he stays healthy and continues to hit well), should be ready for the majors by 2014 at the latest. I'm pretty sure he will most likely start the season in AA. He's a legit 4 tool player with developing power so lets have our fingers crossed. He's also very Paul O'Neil-esque in the field. Very intense and gives his 110% out on the field.

[joseph aka Jman]

Great hes finally healthy and showing his potential, hes got all the tools

[Webslinger]

One good season in A ball and Heathcott becomes the yankees's number two prospect?

Thin farm system + first round pick.

[TheBadOwl]

Heathcott has elite tools, he's just been injured. If he stays healthy, he will be a star.
