The New York Yankees are expecting to rely heavily on several young players in their bullpen this upcoming season. Right off the bat, Ron Marinaccio and Greg Weissert stand out as two prominent figures who project to have big roles. However, there are a few other prospects ready to make the jump to the majors, notably Randy Vasquez and Jhony Brito.
Brito is specifically an intriguing prospect who pitched in 18 games with Triple-A Scranton last season. Brito, 24, stands at 6’2″ and 160 pounds. He pitched 70.2 innings last year, earning himself a gushing review from one of the Yankees’ top developmental coaches.
