Hi. My name is Steve and I created this blog. I am also the writer of the blog “The Yankees: Minors to Majors.” (yankeesmtom.com) Basically this is just a depth chart of the Yankees organization. It has the MLB New York Yankees, AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees, AA Trenton Thunder, A+ Tampa Yankees, A- Charleston RiverDogs, Short Season Staten Island Yankees, and the Gulf Coast League Short Season Yankees.
Some general information about this…
I have organized the teams into line-up, bench, rotation, bullpen, rehab, DFA limbo, and DL.
The line-ups are not always the exact line-up. For example, see the A- Charleston RiverDogs. I have Jesus Montero as the catcher and Austin Romine as the DH. However, in real life they platoon and switch between catching and DHing. Also, someone might have just gotten injured so I have to guess who will start. Also, two minor leaguers have similar playing time at a position, I’ll just call the better prospect or better hitter a starter.
The SP and RP are not definite also. In the lower minor leagues there is a lot of ambiguity between starting pitching and relief pitching. You’ll have a lot of guys with half their games as starters, and half as relievers. You’ll have relievers start the game but only pitch 2 innings. These are just half guesses.
Some of the players on the DL are actually on the “restricted list.”
If you see a problem please feel free to post a comment and I’ll get to it as soon as possible. This site won’t be perfect!!! I’m going to try to update this weekly, since doing it daily would be ridiculous.
Go Yankees!
