Red Report 2016 - Jake Cave

Position: Outfielder
Bats: Left, Throws: Left
Height: 6' 0", Weight: 200 lb.

Jake Cave was born on December 4, 1992 in Hampton, Virginia. In 2011 the Yankees drafted Cave straight out of high school, and that season he appeared in one game for New York's Gulf Coast League team. In that game he went 0-1 with a walk giving him the rare .000/.500/.000 slash line for the season (small sample size blah blah blah). There's a reason he only played in one game during 2011: In his debut he fractured his kneecap on a collision at home plate.
