Summary
The Yankees are deep into day two of the MLB Draft, targeting late-round gems to bolster their farm system before the All-Star break. In the fifth round, they selected 21-year-old catcher Bear Harrison from Texas A&M — a right-handed hitter with elite defensive skills and solid college power. Scouts rave about his pop times and pitch framing, traits the Yankees prize. Harrison, the younger brother of big league pitcher Kyle Harrison, joins fellow catcher Brendan Brock, signaling a serious commitment to the backstop position. With rounds six through ten still to come, the Yankees are hunting hidden talent — and the hunt is far from over.
