What is it like to be a scout for the New York Yankees?

Error 0:

The New York Yankees are the most representative and influential franchise in MLB. Few people would dare to deny that. And being a scout for the organization comes with a great deal of responsibility and duties.

Shaun Hill played professionally for 16 years, and was sure he would keep doing it for another season in 2016. However, he received a phone call that changed his career path.

Kevin Reese, a friend of his and currently the Yankees’ senior director of player development, was the director of pro scouting at the time.

“He asked if I had any interest in scouting,” Hill recalled.
