July 2012 Minor League Thread

Refsnyder is joining the Charleston Riverdogs. I don't remember a player drafted by the Yankees, reporting directly to a full season team, the same year he was drafted. Not directly without getting promoted from a short season club. Can anybody remember otherwise? What it tells me is that they think he is an advanced hitter.

that, plus they might be looking to see what they have with this kid quick, as the ML outfield will soon be in flux

either that, or they plan on trading some of their lower level OF's soon, and having refsnyder start out in full season ball would put him in a better position to fill in those roster gaps next year

Even though he played the outfield last night, they're converting him to 2nd base. It might not happen until Fall Instructs, but it's going to happen unless they changed their mind and think his bat can play as an outfielder.

Ravel Santana
2-4, 2B, HR

He needs it.

[Yankees1962]

He needs it.

He just got another double and now has driven in 6 runs tonight.

[philleotardo]

He needs it.

Also from the "needs it" category

Murphy 2-4, 3B, HR

Heathcott, Williams and Sanchez didn't look too great in Tampa today.

The St. Lucie Mets ran all over Sanchez. IIRC, they were 3/3 on the basepaths.

But, on the bright side, I got Williams', Sanchez's, Heathcott's, Sojo's and Kyle Higashioka's autographs.

Is there a reason why Mark Montgomery is still in A ball? Aren't guys like that (insane K/9 types) supposed to be moving up the ladder fairly quickly?

Something I've wondered for a while now.
