Overlooked Yankees prospect dealt away in Camilo Doval trade is dominating in AFL

When the New York Yankees acquired Camilo Doval from the San Francisco Giants, they sent a large package of four prospects out West in exchange for the 28-year-old righty. While that might seem like a lot in exchange for the one-time All-Star, it was really more of a quantity over quality situation. Or, at least, that's how it seemed at the time.

Of the four youngsters, only two ranked in lthe Yankees' top-30, and both were towards the back half. Right-handed pitcher Trystan Vrieling was the Yankees' No.19 prospect (per MLB Pipeline), while catcher and corner infielder Jesus Rodriguez ranked 25th among the Baby Bombers.
