The Yankees have announced that
their number one pitching prospect Manny Banuelos will undergo Tommy
John surgery. The 21 year old left-hander will likely miss all of the
2013 season. Word is that on Thursday Banuelos will be in
Florida to have the procedure performed by Dr. James Andrews.

| Manny Banuelos |
In 2008 the
Yankees sign Banuelos as an international free agent. This
season at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre he was 0-2 with an ERA of
4.50 in six starts before being shut down in May. The club didn't
make it official until August and at that time they were calling it a
bone bruise. Guess they were keeping that a secret.
Last season he
made 27 starts between Triple-A Scranton and Double-A Trenton going
6-7 with an ERA of 3.75. In 129 2/3 innings he compiled 125 strike
outs.
It wasn't to long
ago when I said this team needs to inject some of it's younger minor
league players. Well I guess that's going to have to wait.
