      Farm System Snapshot

      With Gleyber Torres and Miguel Andujar stepping into starting roles for the New York Yankees, the farm system slid in these rankings.

      Toolsy outfielder Estevan Florial and hard-throwing lefty Justus Sheffield are the marquee names in the system, with a wealth of pitching talent to follow.

      Teenager Luis Medina is a name to know. His 75-grade fastball and plus curveball-changeup pairing give him a chance to develop into an elite talent, though he's still learning to harness his electric stuff.

      While their depth is enough to keep the Yankees from slipping out of the top 10, they no longer have a top-tier system—at least while they wait on their lower-level guys to develop.



      Prospect on the Rise: RHP Jonathan Loaisiga (BA: 25; MLB.com: 14)

      2018 Stats (A+/AA): 10 GS, 6-1, 3.00 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, 58/4 K/BB, 45.0 IP

      Originally signed by the San Francisco Giants in 2012, Loaisiga missed the 2014 and 2015 seasons with injuries and was released. The Yankees signed him, and he made just one start in 2016 before needing Tommy John surgery. Finally healthy last season, he posted a 1.38 ERA and 0.61 WHIP with 33 strikeouts in 32.2 innings. The 23-year-old appears to be on the fast track to the majors.
