However, he made some changes to his swing path at Instructs and he's staying down in Tampa the whole offseason to further refine his swing in preparation for next year. http://yankees.scout.com/2/1236044.html 2047 Patrick Teale http://yankees.scout.com/2/1236044.html Mon, 05 Nov 2012 21:37:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees The Charleston RiverDogs had a very solid season in 2012, finishing the year with a 73-63 record on the strength of a 41-26 first half.

With a history of being a first round draft pick for the Yankees in 2010 and a respectable 2011 season with Staten Island, he brings an array of talents to the Charleston Riverdogs. But, as for so many players in the minor leagues, consistency remains the key to making it into the majors. http://yankees.scout.com/2/1177047.html 2047 Hannah Starke http://yankees.scout.com/2/1177047.html Fri, 13 Apr 2012 19:34:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees BRADENTON, FL - Charleston didn't have great pitching and the bats were quieted for the first time in a long time on Saturday as the RiverDogs fell 6-2 to the Pirates' low-A affiliate, but shortstop Cito Culver made a defensive play for the ages. http://yankees.scout.com/2/1171064.html 2047 Patrick Teale http://yankees.scout.com/2/1171064.html Sun, 25 Mar 2012 02:19:00 GMT 1 303 NY Yankees yankees Over the next few weeks we'll be dissecting the top ten prospects in many different tools' categories in a series of articles called "Tool Time".
