MLB.com ranks Jasson Dominguez as the Yankees's #3 prospect after Deivi Garcia and Estevan Florial and #68 in their Top 100. Garcia and Florial rank 62 and 63.

That's because the Yankees spent so much money on Dominguez.

Do they rank by potential or how good the player is today?

I have no idea. What I do know is after the yankees signed that kid, about 5 article appeared on separate websites about his generational talent and off the charts ratings.

Though what happens between 16 and 21, who knows, but you could see a lot of optimism, though guarded of course.

Love Hicks but I think Cashman overplayed his hand giving him that long extension with his injury history.

Don’t remember but I believe his contract is either front loaded or it’s not a big per year figure.

My take away from this is that the Rays have a better signing table than the Knicks.

7/70 .. 10M a year is great for Hicks but for 7 years is a stretch. Well at least we'll get half a season with solid play on defense and offense every year. We just need to make sure our 4th outfielder can almost play full time, like Gardy.

I hope that homer over the Green Monster is a symbolic end to Judge's struggles in Fenway.

Nothing more satisfying that Boston fans chanting “Yankees suck” while their team is 4 runs down and all but mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

Still take satisfaction in beating them though. Yankees better close out the season series with a win tonight.

It gave me some nice pride and joy this morning that the Yankees were the final straw for Dave Dombrowski.

Tauchman is done for the year, grade 2 calf strain 6-8 weeks, **** :bang head:. Thats why I dont believe in the theory that we dont need Staton, because you never know whats gonna happen during the season, it does have an impact on everyone too Maybin isnt 100 percent and Gardner at 36 shouldn't have to be playing CF every day, the staff is gonna have to tell these guys not to go too hard in the regular season gotta play Clint in LF at least till Stanton comes back, perhaps Estrada and Wade can play the OF, gonna be a very interesting decisions for the playoff roster, now opens up a spot for Maybin, puts Frazier and Ford into the picture more, or do you add an extra guy from the pen, Estrada or Wade could have a spot on the roster, decisions, decisions.

Red Sox let their President/GM go and now their fans want Cora to go to ONE YEAR after winning the World Series. :lol:

Gotta love it.

Red Sox are eliminated from winning the AL East, but could still mathematically earn a Wild Card spot.
