Them smartypants Steinbrenners went out and got themselves one a them dadgum an-na-lizers

Excitement is building over the changes in the Yankee farm system!

Down the hall from (Yankee brass Mark) Newman’s office sits a “PhD in advanced math and statistics,” says Newman, a statistical analyst devoted to the player development department. The Yankees have added other staff and scouts.

We hired a statistics cruncher? Like in Moneyball
PINCH ME, EVERYBODY, PINCH ME!

The Yanks are upgrading the (Tampa minor league) facility, adding a building that will house meeting rooms and a cafeteria for players, as well as refurbishing the four diamonds. Building a dormitory for prospects is being discussed, too.


A new cafeteria? THIS IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!

START PRINTING THE PLAYOFF TICKETS!
