On Thursday, Kiley McDaniel of ESPN published an updated top 50 prospects across baseball. The New York Yankees are well represented.
The Yankees paid a premium to add left-handed bats Anthony Rizzo and Joey Gallo to the major league lineup before the deadline. They sent outfielder Kevin Alcantara and pitcher Alex Vizcaino to the Cubs after trading infielders Ezequiel Duran and Josh Smith to the Rangers.
The surprise in ESPN’s rankings was the omission of the Yankees’ most hyped prospect, Jasson Dominguez. He was an honorable mention, but did not make McDaniel’s top 50 overall.
