Around the Empire: Yankees news - 2/21/21

Sports Illustrated | Max Goodman: One of the Yankees’ top prospects is already turning heads just a few days into camp. Austin Wells, last year’s first-round pick, has impressed Aaron Boone with his hitting prowess and his strength. Boone called Wells “as strong as anyone in camp” and “a guy (who) loves hitting.” His position in the field is still to be determined, but Wells’s bat should profile nicely on the Yankees in a few years.

Sports Illustrated | Max Goodman: Jameson Taillon is not only a great pitcher who will fill a void for the Yankees, but he’s a fighter and has an excellent pitcher’s mind.
