DEIVI GARCIA HAS A BAD NIGHT

With every young Yankee player comes a night or 2 that doesn't go your way. No matter.

In AAA last night with the Railriders, Deivi Garcia got served against Rochester.

Meanwhile, at Yankee stadium the Yankees won because of Austin Romine. But no one's talking about that. That's because our entire fan base is crying like a bunch of bitches because we didn't get a starter. SHUT UP!

Sorry... I got off track...

The Citizen's Voice writes of Garcia:

"Jay Bell said he’s going to have to check the video to be sure, but for now, he’ll go with location. In his fourth Triple-A start, Deivi Garcia’s location seemed to be a little bit off."

Missed up a couple times to Rochester’s Wilin Rosario, and the veteran slugger made the 20-year-old starter pay for it. Missed again to Alejandro De Aza, and before the first inning was over, Rochester had four runs on the board. 

Still, Garcia survived that inning and made it through four more, and for that, Bell remains impressed."

There are hiccups with every youngster.  I'm sure the pressure of being the Yankees next big thing isn't helping. But look... I at least wanted to give you an update on this kid.  More work to do...  no big deal.

Here's your final:

Happy Thursday.

BRYCE HARPER WINS NL ROOKIE OF THE YEAR

WHY BRYCE HARPER COULD BE A YANKEE.  Yeah, we wrote that here at BYB in March of 2011.  Check it out.  Now it appears that Bryce Harper has just won the National League Rookie of the Year award.  Good for him.  You can read about it HERE.

According to DJ Short at Hardball Talk, "Bryce Harper was named the National League Rookie of the Year this evening by the BBWAA, beating out finalists Wade Miley and Todd Frazier. He received 16 first-place votes compared to 12 for Miley, three for Frazier and one for Wilin Rosario. It was a very close vote, as Harper and Miley were ultimately separated by just seven points. It would have been even closer if Miley wasn’t left off one ballot." 

Congrats to Harper and the others... a great achievement.

By the way, you can read our piece on Mike Trout from earlier tonight as well. He won the AL Rookie of the Year award unanimously. Read GUESS WHO WON THE AL ROOKIE OF THE YEAR AWARD?
