Garrett Whitlock is emerging as the Yankees’ latest find in the late rounds of the draft

The Yankees currently own the best record (31-13) and second best run differential (+81) in baseball, largely because their farm system has been so productive. Luis Severino, Gary Sanchez, and Aaron Judge are all legitimate stars and it sure looks like Gleyber Torres is on a similar path. Miguel Andujar, Chad Green, Jordan Montgomery, Domingo German, and others have come up to contribute within the last year or two as well.

Even with all the recent graduations to the big leagues — Andujar exceeded the 130 at-bat rookie limit last week and Torres will do the same in about two weeks — the Yankees still have a strong farm system built mostly around pitching.
