Future Yankees

BaseballAmerica.com has a listing for the current Top 10 Yankees Prospects. As their story states:
In the last two years, New York has added high-end prospects at the lower levels with international signings and a more aggressive approach in the draft. The organization has potential impact bats such as outfielders Jose Tabata and Austin Jackson and infielders C.J. Henry and Eduardo Nunez, as well as intriging arms in Hughes, Christian Garcia and Jeff Marquez. Loaded Yankees affiliates won championships in the short-season New York-Penn and Rookie-level Gulf Coast leagues, but most of their best talent has yet to play above the Class A level.
Sounds like that’s right on schedule.
While I know it’s a long way from A-Ball to the Bronx, I can’t help but to be happy at the news

BA is really terrible…
They are more toolsy-directed than others.
But, it’s always a guessing game. And, if someone can guess right some of the time, that’s pretty good.
