This bucks what was a troubling trend for the organization after the Core Four era entrenched themselves into Yankees lore, as the team often failed to produce any quality major league talent from their farm system.
This included high profile busts such as Joba Chamberlain, Phil Hughes, and Jesus Montero (albeit we did win that trade, barely), with perhaps Brett Gardner and Dellin Betances (a failed starter) as their best results.
Thankfully, the narrative has now changed dramatically. After realizing that the team had little roster flexibility and limited potential due to their bloated payroll and advanced age shortly following a splurge on the 2014 free agent class, Hal Steinbrenner gave Brian Cashman a mandate to improve while getting younger and somehow cheaper.
