Two quick notes to pass along:
- RHP Roansy Contreras and RHP Luis Gil have entered MLB.com’s top 30 Yankees prospects now that RHP Dillon Tate and RHP Cody Carroll have been traded away. Exciting write-ups for both. “Contreras’ fastball velocity has increased from 89-93 mph when he turned pro to 93-97 mph this season,” and Gil is “regularly working at 95-98 mph with his fastball and topping out at 101.” Huh.
- The Yankees have released OF Terrance Robertson, reports Matt Eddy. The Yankees gave him an overslot $170,000 bonus as their 12th round pick in 2015.
