The Yankees are no longer the veteran-laden championship-caliber team they once were throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. Instead, in a surprising turn, New York boasts one of the best prospect pools in all of baseball, according to MLB.com's Prospect Watch. Along with the Atlanta Braves, the Yankees have a league-leading seven prospects in top 100, three of which are in the top 40.

New York Yankees• 1. Gleyber Torres: The Yankees shortstop of the future is just 20

3. Blake Rutherford: The 37th-best prospect according to MLB.com, Rutherford is a 19-year-old outfielder taken by the Yankees in the first round of the 2016 MLB Amateur Draft. He hit for an impressive .351 batting average in rookie ball last season.
