Josh Norris ? @jnorris427

Rafael DePaula is listed under the Charleston work group this morning. #Yankees

[Yankees1962]

he mentioned about a pitcher with 98mph fastball. anyone care to pm me the name?

He probably meant Andury Acevedo a former Pirate SS prospect that's been converted to a pitcher by the Yankees.

Nardi Contreras says that DePaula will start the year in extended spring. Not surprising. #Yankees

Josh Norris ‏ @jnorris427


DePaula hit 94 today. I asked Nardi how high he expects him to hit in the future. His answer? "100." #Yankees

That's where I expected him to be, but let's not start the velocity watch with him now. They should caution Nardi against saying those kind of things

Surprised about Gavin Brooks. I wonder if he is still injured.

Dante Jr. just hit a homer in the game against the Astros. He was congratulated by his Godfather Girardi.

I like Depaula's delivery, compact, fastball has nice late movement. Were do you guys think he ranks amongst Yankees prospects?

I'm not saying until he plays in some minor league games.

Dante Jr. just hit his 2nd homer in today's game against the Astros.

I really like Dante Bichette. It's not only because of his power, but also his plate discipline. I think the Yankees hit a jack pot there.
