MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: When the Yankees signed Neil Walker to a one-year deal, it was all but finalized that the second base competition was over. The next domino to fall happened yesterday. Top prospect Gleyber Torres was optioned to Triple-A after struggling so far this spring. Torres said he understands and that he’s just going to continue to work so he’s ready when the next opportunity presents itself. Aaron Boone said Torres just needs to get his reps and the hits will come.
New York Daily News | Peter Botte: If the Yankees decided to pay Aaron Judge per home run, it looks like the going rate is $12,000.
