The Yankees are outrighting Yanquiel Fernandez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the team announced. The outfielder was designated for assignment last week, shortly after the team claimed him off waivers from the Rockies. Fernandez will be in MLB Spring Training with New York.
More to come…
I think somebody should take a shot on this kid he didn’t get a fair shot in New York or Colorado this guy was a legit 25 homer and 90 rbi prospect for years and was a top 75 prospect just 2-3 years ago and he’s still just a baby at 23! Look at his stats also he’s a stud he’s just been hurt recently but I’m calling it if he gets a chance he can be the next Yoruba Alvarez
Yordan Alvarez sorry
Just curious
Did you also misspell your username?
no, his name is Balls Tothwwall.. Olde English, I believe.
Lol I thought my name would be flagged if I spelled it correctly
I mean, he’s getting a shot with New York right now. The just slipped him through waivers so they can work with him and see what he can do without tying up a 40-man roster spot. They clearly think he might have something and have now successfully secured the opportunity to see what it is.
“the next Yoruba Alvarez”
I can’t disagree. He could be even better
I hope some prospect comes up within next few years name Yoruba Alvarez and we all remember this conversation lol
Goodbye yanquiel. The only reason the Yankees signed him was yanquiel is the only player in baseball history to have the same first three letters in his name as the Yankees. Except for Yan Gomez but he doesn’t count.
Nope, we still got him! The Yanqui Way continues!
Looks like a jump the gun. You’re right he was outrighted.
I mean, he’s not gone. This is him sticking around.
Yankees seem to be the team that is able to successfully pass former top prospects through waivers when other teams cannot.
They’re typically pretty low on the waiver priority, so the fact that a guy even makes it to them usually means most of the league passed to begin with
The new estaban florial
The new Franchy Cordero, more like. But you never know.
