Gary Sanchez racking up RBI in Class A
by Michael Hurcomb \| CBSSports.com (5/5/13) Yankees catcher prospect Gary Sanchez clubbed his fifth home run for Class A Tampa Saturday. It was his second home run in his last nine games. Sanchez is batting .260 with a .345 on-base percentage and .462 slugging percentage through 27 games. He has six doubles, 18 runs and 21 RBI. Sanchez is considered the Yankees' top prospect by MLB.com.

Gary Sanchez continuing to develop
by Michael Hurcomb \| CBSSports.com (4/15/13) Yankees catcher prospect Gary Sanchez is off to a promising start for Class A Tampa. Sanchez, who is considered the team's top prospect by MLB.com, is batting .350 (14 for 40) through 10 games, which included a two-homer performance Saturday against Daytona. Sanchez also has four doubles, eight RBI and is slugging .600. "I'm just thinking about the middle of the field," Sanchez said through a translator, per MLB.com. "I'm trying to make sure I have a good pitch to hit all the time. That's something I've been working on when taking batting practice and working with the hitting coaches in the cage -- getting good pitches and staying to the middle of the field." One of the biggest hurdles left in Sanchez's development is breaking down the language barrier with pitchers. Speaking English has proven difficult so far for the 20-year-old Dominican catcher. "He's got to work a little more with the pitchers and get to know them better, but that's a process you learn over the years," Tampa manager Luis Sojo said. "He's making that adjustment. That'll come. Defensively, he's got a plus arm. Like I said, his relationship with the pitchers is the most important thing for him. He's got to fight to learn to improve his communication with the pitchers. As a catcher, that's very important."

'Zero doubt' about Sanchez
(2/5/13) After a down campaign in 2011, Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez made some noise last season in the minors by batting .290 with 18 home runs and 85 RBI. He also slugged a healthy .485 between two Class A stops and stole 15 bases. New York senior vice president of baseball operations Mark Newman told MLB.com on Tuesday that Sanchez has made strides defensively as well. "He can really throw. He can catch the ball," Newman said. "He's got good lower body flexibility. It's a really hard position to play. He's made great improvement over the last two years. He's got the physical tools and the mental capabilities to do it. He's a catcher. We have zero doubt about that."
