The New York Post’s Kevin Kernan is arguably one of the worst mainstream writers covering the Yankees today — and that’s saying a lot, considering the sheer volume of people competing for that particular honor — but he’s got a great piece up today about Dellin Betances, and it also features brief [...]
John Sickels chimed in yesterday with his top 20 prospects list. It is an interesting list that I think is instructive on a number of levels, so here is the top 12:
1) Jesus Montero, C, Grade A: No one will care much about the glove in five years.

Pete Caldera of the Bergen Record has a nice piece out on Zach McAllister, one of the Yankees best-rated pitching prospects. McAllister, 22, is in camp this spring to show off his stuff after tossing 121 innings of 2.23 ERA ball for Trenton in 2009. Though he isn’t known for his strikeout [...]
Keith Law’s top 100 prospects list is finally out and the Yankees are represented by none other than Jesus Montero (C), who comes in at number 10, as well as Manny Banuelos (LHP), who rounds out the list at number 96.
Here’s Law’s take on Montero:

Love is not altogether a delirium, yet it has many points in common therewith.
