Yankees owner excited by young players, hints at change

TAMPA, Fla. -- New York Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner said he's excited to see what an influx of young players will bring to the major league team over the final weeks of a lost season and also hinted that changes could be coming to how the team utilizes analytics.

The Yankees officially plan to call up top prospects Jasson Domínguez and Austin Wells on Friday when active major league rosters expand from 26 to 28.

The pair could make their major league debuts Friday at Houston, when the Astros are scheduled to start Justin Verlander.
