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!

The Yankees also got themselves a new Broadway show, and this article even mentions Sterling:
