None of the seven Yankees farmhands playing in the Arizona Fall League were selected to participate in the Rising Stars Showcase, essentially the league’s all-star game (rosters). The game will be broadcast live on MLB Network and MLB.com this coming Saturday at 8pm ET.
Also, Josh Norris spoke to David Adams’ agent, who said the second baseman “feels good and is preparing for a long and productive year next season.” Adams has played just a handful of games since breaking his ankle sliding into second base way back in May 2010.
And finally, the Short Season Staten Island Yankees were named the Short Season Team of the Year, so congrats to them. They finished with the best record in the circuit and won the league title.
