As we begin the third full week of MILB, we've gotten news of top Prospects Pico Kohn going on the 60 Day IL, then Henry Lalane and Ben Hess going on the 7 Day IL. We've also gotten news of some pitchers already at the Yankees complex ramping up for their returns like Bryce Cunningham, Wyatt Parliment, Thatcher Hurd and Luis Velasquez.

The Yankees system has seen some risers and that's mainly coming from the relief corps. Each level has seen some early stand outs:

Tampa: Jose Martinez, Jordarlin Mendoza, Matthew Tippie, Jose M. Rodriguez and Pedro Rodriguez
Hudson: Ben Grable, Tony Rossi, Chris Veach, Brady Kirtner and Jack Sokol
Somerset: Will Brian, Eric Reyzelman and Chris Kean
SWB: Yovanny Cruz, Yerry De Los Santos, and Angel Chivilli

Keep in mind we're two weeks out from the start of the FCL season.

Note: I'll be adding video for my Prospects of the Week at the bottom.
