Weekly Prospects Check In: Justus Sheffield

The Yankees trade with the Cleveland Indians for Andrew Miller will take years to sort out a true “winner” but right now you have to think this deal is looking good for both clubs. The Yankees got a key reliever that has already made his MLB debut in Ben Heller, a new top prospect in Clint Frazier and today’s weekly check in showcase LHP Justus Sheffield. Heller has toiled around in the majors while Frazier has struggled a bit to transition to his new team but there has been no such struggles with Sheffield. This guy is dominating down in Tampa with the Tampa Yankees.

Sheffield has all the talent and the makings of being something special and I can’t wait to see how he grows in the organization. Here is what Sheffield has been up to this week and what he has been up to this season with Cleveland and with the Yankees:
