Weekly Prospects Check In: Gleyber Torres

Gleyber Torres, what can I say that I haven’t already said a million times before? This kid is talented and he’s overflowing with skills and the Yankees are lucky to have him in their organization. The Cubs paid a pretty penny for a rental closer but when you haven’t won a World Series in about 100 years I guess you tend to get desperate. Their loss, our gain is the way I look at it. I loved having Aroldis Chapman here but I think I’ll like having Torres here more, just a hunch.

We’re glad to have you Gleyber. What else can I say? Keep up the fantastic work:
