The Arizona Fall League rosters were partially announced, and the Yankees are indeed sending OF Slade Heathcott, C Austin Romine, and IF David Adams to the desert this year. They still have four pitching slots to fill, and I’m willing to bet all four will be relievers.
In other news, both LHP Nik Turley and 1B Kyle Roller have been named to the High-A Florida State League end-of-season All-Star Team. Congrats to both.
