Despite cuts, Justus Sheffield and Dillon Tate have bright futures

The Yankees made their first round of cuts earlier this week. Among the six players cut, Justus Sheffield and Dillon Tate easily stand out as biggest names on the list. Both players performed reasonably well in their brief stints with the parent club. Still, their respective performances indicate that they need more seasoning in the minor leagues before taking on a meaningful role with the team. If each pitcher can iron out some deficiencies in their respective games, it’ll be interesting to see how quickly they can rise through the upper-levels of the Yankees’ system.
