Today, Keith Law posted his rankings and the Yankees system came in at #25.
Lost picks and trades depleted the system; they traded two guys currently in the top 100. After Jesus Montero, the next impact guys are probably Slade Heathcott and Gary Sanchez, with three pro games combined to date, while their highest-ceiling arm, Andrew Brackman, struggled with command in his first full year back from Tommy John surgery.
Law had the Rangers (1), Red Sox (2), Rays (3), Indians (4) and Braves (5) as his top five. The Mets stand at 15.
I guess Law wasn't looking at the good arms in the lower levels. Guys like Austin Romine and Zach McAllister are pretty good. But overall, I can't disgree with him.
