LHP Josh Rogers was named the 25th best prospect in the Cape Cod League today by Baseball America (subs. req’d). “His three-pitch mix and strike-throwing ability give him a chance to become a back-of-the-rotation starter,” said the write-up. The Yankees selected Rogers in the 11th round of this year’s draft and gave him an above slot $485,000 bonus.
