Once again, for all their troubles elsewhere, the Yankees have proven that they are one of the better teams at minor league deals. When Jake Bauers went on his initial power surge, I was not sure what to think. For the most part, he had significant struggles in his MLB career despite being a Top-50 prospect at one point. However, he remade his swing to be a perfect platoon hitter and even a decent power bat to face lefties with vertical moving profiles. Last week against the Mets, Bauers put on a very good day at the plate against Justin Verlander, even though he only had a single hit.
