Yankees calling up prized prospects Everson Pereira, Oswald Peraza

In other words, the kids are on their way.

The Yankees are bringing up two of their top prospects, outfielder Everson Pereira and infielder Oswald Peraza, from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre for Tuesday’s series opening against the Washingtоn Nationals, according to multiple reports Monday.

The Yankees aren’t done making changes; they’re searching for ways to improve their current roster—which is last in the AL East—and for potential reinforcements for next year’s campaign.

Both Pereira and Peraza will be making their major league debuts.

Whatever the outcome of the Yankees’ terrible season may be, sources have said that the entire organization will be examined after the fact, putting many positions at rιsk.

The Yankees are currently on track to have their first sub-.500 season since 1992 and their first last-place finish since 1990, so this comes as no surprise.

Brian Sabean and Omar Minaya, two long-time general managers who were hired by Yankees general manager Brian Cashman in the summer, would likely be a part of these discussions.

The Yankees have been criticized for relying too heavily on analytics in recent years, but both Sabean and Minaya have scouting pedigrees.

The Yankees’ difficulties this season are the result of a combination of factors that go back more than a year.

After starting last year 61-23 and 15 1/2 games ahead of the division, they now enter Tuesday’s series opener against the Nationals in The Bronx with a record of just 98-104.

Optimist Aaron Boone admitted on Sunday that the Yankees would need to perform “unbelievable the rest of the way” to salvage the season.

According to MLB Pipeline, Mark Teixeira, now playing for the Yankees at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, is the organization’s third-best prоspect.

After starting the season with Double-A Somerset, the 22-year-old outfielder has excelled in his new role with SWB.

Pereira’s OPS at Triple-A is.937 in 158 at-bats.

He has been one of SWB’s hottest hitters as of late, with eight base hits in his last three games.

Since Andrew Benintendi’s brief stint in left field last year before a wrist ιnjury interrupted his career in The Bronx, the Yankees have had some of the poorest production in the majors from left field, where Pereira might be plugged in.

Although Peraza saw brief action with the Yankees this year, he was unable to repeat the оffensive performance he enjoyed in the final months of 2022.

Peraza, like Pereira, is on the 40-man roster and has contributed since joining SWB; he recently went 3-for-4.

Austin Wells, a catcher, is also showing promise at the Triple-A level.

First round pick from Arizona in 2020 had a 3-homer, 10-RBI performance in his previous two games at SWB.

Wells, 24, has also performed better at SWB than at lower levels earlier in the season, but he would need to be added to the 40-man roster before he could be called up.

When Jose Trevino went down for the year with a wrist ιnjury, the Yankees’ problems behind the plate only became worse.

While veteran catcher Kyle Higashioka is having a typical season and is highly appreciated, rookie catcher Ben Rortvedt has struggled to bat at the major league level but has complemented ace pitcher Gerrit Cole effectively.
