Baseball America released its annual midseason top-50 prospect list and two Yankee farmhands appear in the top 17.
Outfielder Aaron Judge and right-hander Luis Severino appeared at number 13 and 17, respectively.
Severino appeared on the list in 2014 as the 34th best prospect. Entering 2015, Severino lost a spot in the rankings. He came into the year the 35th best prospect, while Judge was ranked 53, according to Baseball America.
The Yankees top prospects have made giant leaps in the rankings thanks in large part to their solid starts to the season.
