Lassiter is in his second stint with the Riverdogs, and, despite his slow start thus far, feels he poised to make his 2010 campaign a more successful go around. http://yankees.scout.com/2/964836.html 2047 Sean Kavanaugh http://yankees.scout.com/2/964836.html Fri, 23 Apr 2010 03:16:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees PinstripesPlus.com analyzes the Yankees third base prospects.

So while the overall numbers weren't tremendous, the constant adversity helped mold him. http://yankees.scout.com/2/903356.html 2047 Katie Nutaitis http://yankees.scout.com/2/903356.html Sun, 27 Sep 2009 03:20:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees Having missed a month and a half of action because of a sore labrum, Garrison Lassiter returned on June 25th to Charleston and is adjusting to third base and swinging the bat well. http://yankees.scout.com/2/885597.html 2047 Katie Nutaitis http://yankees.scout.com/2/885597.html Fri, 07 Aug 2009 03:41:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees Garrison Lassiter entered the Yankees organization last summer with the reputation as having one of the better bats around and he certainly hasn't done anything to dispute those claims in his first Spring Training camp this year. But while he has been connecting with great frequency, it's the charge he's been putting into his swings that has opened some eyes. http://yankees.scout.com/2/852456.html 2047 Patrick Teale http://yankees.scout.com/2/852456.html Wed, 01 Apr 2009 03:22:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees James Rowson, the Yankees minor league hitting coordinator, sits down with PinstripesPlus.com for a two-part Q&A series. In part one he gives us his impressions on how big league ready Jesus Montero's bat is, if Austin Romine is closer to the player he was in the second-half last year, how happy he is with Bradley Suttle, if Eduardo Nunez is becoming a more consistent player, and much, much more. http://yankees.scout.com/2/848540.html 2047 Patrick Teale http://yankees.scout.com/2/848540.html Thu, 19 Mar 2009 02:29:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees PinstripesPlus.com analyzes the Yankees shortstop prospects.

An AFLAC All-American and considered by many to be an early round talent, a seemingly firm commitment to the University of North Carolina caused him to drop and the Yankees lured him away with a $650,000 signing bonus. http://yankees.scout.com/2/821352.html 2047 Patrick Teale http://yankees.scout.com/2/821352.html Sun, 14 Dec 2008 20:46:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees Here are the Top 50 Yankees' prospects.

Like Carmen Angelini a year ago, Garrison Lassiter was a highly regarded prep shortstop drafted in the later rounds and signed by the Yankees. And like Angelini, Lassiter had a brief stint in the Gulf Coast League but will need to use the Instructional League season to prepare him for his first full season. Lassiter says he's ready to grind it out. http://yankees.scout.com/2/797962.html 2047 Patrick Teale http://yankees.scout.com/2/797962.html Mon, 06 Oct 2008 02:26:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees We sat down with GCL Yankees Manager Jody Reed for a Q&A session to get his thoughts on what kind of progress he saw from Arodys Vizcaino, what he believes was the reason Corban Joseph turned around his rough start, which pitcher among the high school draftees impressed him, why Jose Pirela didn't have great GCL numbers, and much, much more. http://yankees.scout.com/2/788506.html 2047 Patrick Teale http://yankees.scout.com/2/788506.html Tue, 09 Sep 2008 03:50:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees
