Yorman is the youngest player in the Pioneer League by nearly a full year. There are only a hand full of guys that were born in 1991 in the league and Y-Rod was born in '92.

and he just homered... solid debut for the young Y-Rod.
Crazy thing about 'ole Yorman making it to Billings. I was just thinking over the last few days that this kid could realistically be in Billings next season and be in Dayton OF next year by years end (@17). And now he goes and moves that timeline up on me. He could be (a bit of a stretch but) could be in the Futures game next year. This kid just moved up my own personal list a bit.

Dang! Any chance he starts next year in Dayton - at least til the short-season leagues start? I'm shocked he didn't finish he year in the GCL also. Was that his first pro HR?Originally Posted by Grande Donkey
How was C Mark Fleury ranked defensively going into the draft?
I am asking because he gave up his 8th Passed Ball Saturday
Im not blaming him 100% for all of the passed balls because he is new at working with all of these pitchers but something must something wrong in regards to his communication with the pitchers in terms of signals for pitches, his game calling or something else that I haven't mentioned
Anyone else have any thoughts?
Not saying 8 PBs is OK, but I can be pretty forgiving with a guy in his first season of Rookie ball - not too worried unless it continues into next year.
He's supposed to be solid behind the plate, and have a strong throwing arm.
