A trade! The Yankees have traded RHP Matt Wotherspoon to the Orioles for an undisclosed sum of international bonus pool money, the team announced. Wotherspoon is a bit of a long shot sleeper. The 25-year-old has a 1.85 ERA (2.42 FIP) with 29.4% strikeouts and 6.5% walks in 39 innings between Double-A and Triple-A this year. The 2017-18 international signing period opened today and the Yankees signed a bunch of players. Here’s a quick recap. I’ll have more on this year’s international class in a few days, once the dust settles.
Triple-A Scranton (14-7 win over Pawtucket)
- CF Jake Cave: 2-5, 2 R, 1 RBI, 1 BB
- 1B Ji-Man Choi: 2-5, 2 R, 2 HR, 5 RBI — second two-homer game in his last four games, and sixth homer in his last ten games … he hit two homers in his first 45 games of the season
- 3B Miguel Andujar: 2-6, 1 2B, 1 K — now 11-for-32 (.
