Weekly Prospects Check In: Tyler Austin

Tyler Austin may be the product of prospect fatigue, bad luck with injuries and a little bit of reverse development. Or he could just be really, really hot since getting called up to Triple-A to play first base after the loss of Chris Parmelee in the Bronx. Either way Austin has done extremely well with the Scranton/Wilkes Barre RailRiders this season and may be finally putting his name back on the prospects lists around the Yankees and their front office.

Austin may be the next one down the pipe is something happens to either Ike Davis or Robert Refsnyder and here are his stats to back them up.
