The New York Yankees are ironing out the active roster with every intrasquad game, and outfielder Estavan Florial is one of the summer camp youth players looking to leave their mark.
Florial, who has suffered multiple wrist injuries over the last two seasons, is climbing his way back to form. He was formally the number one ranked prospect in the Yankees’ farm system and one of the top in all of baseball, but his lack of reps and production has hurt his progression.
Nonetheless, when Gleyber Torres hit a line drive base hit to right field, Florial utilized his fantastic arm to throw out Luke Voit, who was rounding second and heading to third. While Voit might not be the fastest player on the team, Estevan showed off one of his most exciting tools.

Florial is considered a five-tool player with the potential to be a starting outfielder in the MLB. This opportunity has given him a chance to showcase his abilities after playing in just 74 games last year. With Tampa, he hit .237 with eight homers and 38 RBIs. The Yankees are desperately seeking more production from the outfielder in the hopes he can make his way to the starting team one day.
