Got some notes to pass along:
- RHP Luis Severino was named to Baseball America’s All-Prospect Team for June. “While Severino hasn’t put away Triple-A batters with two strikes as prolifically as he had at lower levels, the 21-year-old righty has maintained strong control of his pitches, while not allowing a home run through his first seven starts at Scranton,” said the write-up.
- Matt Eddy reports the Yankees have LHP Cameron Pongs (Long Beach State) and C Manny Argomaniz (Fresno State) as undrafted free agents and RHP Mike Schaub out of an independent league.
Triple-A Scranton (6-2 loss to Buffalo)
- LF Ben Gamel: 1-4, 1 2B, 1 RBI
- RF Aaron Judge: 1-4, 1 K
- 1B Greg Bird: 1-4, 1 2B, 2 K — first Triple-A extra-base hit
- 2B Rob Refsnyder: 1-3, 1 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K — six homers in 78 games … he had nine homers through 78 games last year
- C Austin Romine: 1-4
- RHP Jaron Long: 4 IP, 7 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 1 K, 1 WP, 5/3 GB/FB — 42 of 69 pitches were strikes (61%)
- LHP Andrew Miller: 1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 1/0 GB/FB — nine pitches, eight strikes … depending how he feels tomorrow, he could be activated off the DL without making another rehab appearance
