Re: OSFM 2016: New York Yankees

Well lots of the big prospects are already on the 40 man now with experience (Bird, Severino, Ref) or made last year (Judge and Mateo) so the big guys to add will be James Kaprielian and a few other gems from the 2015 draft. Drew Finley seems to be climbing the organization.

Yeah, there shouldn't need to be too many guys created from scratch this year.

I now have 89 guys listed up there, just can't figure out who will be the 1B at AAA this year. Feel free to chime in with feedback. Below I think I'll start putting together a list of guys that maybe we can create as extras.

Cashman has said it wont be Tyler Austin but I'd say keep him in mind for that until we see otherwise in spring training. There's such a log jam in the outfield at AAA that pending injuries I don't see why Austin shouldn't play first. Besides last year the kid has hit and I don't think the Yankees are giving up on him being a future right handed version of Dustin Ackley (minues the ability to play 2nd) just yet for the club.

Yeah, unless they go out and sign someone I don't really see any other option.

Re: OSFM 2016: New York Yankees

Sounds like Ike Davis is close to a minor league deal with the Yankees.

Re: OSFM 2016: New York Yankees

Possible other Yankees to create/carry over to 2016:

SP Ty Hensley
SP Domingo German
SP Austin DeCarr
SP Gabe Encinas
SP Joey Maher
SP Chaz Hebert
SP Jonathan Holder
SP Jordan Foley
SP Daniel Camarena
RP Giovanny Gallegos
RP Tyler Jones
IF Gosuke Katoh
IF Thairo Estrada
IF Donny Sands
IF Chris Gittens
IF Kyle Holder
OF Frank Frias
OF Leonardo Molina
OF Kendall Coleman
OF Carlos Vidal
OF Jhalan Jackson

Obviously a lot of depth at SP, most of the IF/OF are guys who are quite far away.

Re: OSFM 2016: New York Yankees

Chance Adams is someone we may want to add to this list as well, here is a link to his prospect profile from RAB (by far the best Yanks site imo)

Thanks, he's actually listed in Single-A right now.

Re: OSFM 2016: New York Yankees

Sorry I missed him. i rechecked and saw you didn't have SS Kyle Holder. I'm not particularity excited by him but he was the compensation pick for Robertson going to Chicago

Re: OSFM 2016: New York Yankees

By the way kudos to you for last years roster Sink. I thought you did an great job with the Yankees. It was my first OSFM and you did an awesome job with the club's farm and picking the right players to get on the 90 man

Thanks man, I've always enjoyed working on these rosters. Seems like this year is different and there are only a couple people doing the majority of the work since a lot can (hopefully) be carried forward from '15. I've been torn on Holder, but he should be added to the "extras" at least.

Re: OSFM 2016: New York Yankees

I wouldn't be surprised if Torreyes makes the team & Refsnyder sent back to Triple A.

I wouldn't either. I think the main purpose right now is just to identify the 90 to be included.

Speaking of which, it looks like Lane Adams cleared waivers so I'll add him to the list.
