In the recent MLB Draft, the Yankees boosted their prospects with new additions, including left-handers Hunter Dietz and Sean Duncan. Meanwhile, former Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman has moved on from past disputes with the team. The Yankees currently hold a 54-42 record, sitting three games behind the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East.
