Yankees baseball is back! After a disappointing end to a frustrating 2021, followed by an owner-imposed lockout that sucked the joy out of the offseason, capped off by a second free agency that left some fans feeling distinctly underwhelmed, the Bronx Bombers are back. And hope springs eternal! So let’s go win a championship.
Throwing out the first pitch for the Yankees this spring is 24-year-old right-hander Hayden Wesneski, our No. 8-ranked pitching prospect. The young hurler pitched across three levels of minor league ball in 2021, ascending all the way to Triple-A, where he threw 11 innings.
