Just to set the record straight, Yankees prospect Clint Frazier is indeed beating up Triple-A pitching — .341/.414/.636 with five doubles, three triples, five home runs and eight RBI in only 88 at-bats.
But there are only so many articles I can write about Frazier’s deservingness of a promotion to the majors to push or platoon with the offensively stagnant Aaron Hicks.
Instead, today, I’ll focus on another exciting young outfielder in the Yankees organization, 23-year-old Billy McKinney.
McKinney, the Yanks’ No. 18 prospect had a brief cup of coffee with the big league team (two games) before injuring the AC joint in his left shoulder when he crashed into the left-center field wall at Rodgers Centre on April 31.
