DateQuestionAnswer
2017-01-06 13:00:00 (link to chat)What are your thoughts on recent NYY 40-man roster additions Yefrey Ramirez and Ronald Herrera?
(jnyy from OR)		I don't have a recent look at Ramirez, but Herrera looked like the kind of role 4 type that the Yanks tend to do well with. Less fastball and more polish/pitchability than your typical short righty Double-A arm that gets a 40-man add. Fastball was low 90s with effort to keep it there later in starts, three useable secondaries. I liked the change best. Not an obvious relief profile if he moves there, but again, Yanks do well with these guys. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
