1B/OF Tyler Austin 21 G, 22-90, 3 HR, 7 RBI, 18 K, 9 BB, 7 SB
Austin was only added to the roster to replace the injured Eric Jagielo, but he ended up making the best of the situation in the end. He was demoted in 2015 after a poor showing in Triple-A and was later removed from the 40-man roster, but if he can take this bat with him into next season, he could get another chance somewhere.
OF Dustin Fowler 16 G, 17-64, 2 HR, 7 RBI, 10 K, 3 BB, 7 SB
Originally only meant to play part-time this fall, Fowler pushed his way into more regular playing time to be considered one of the better prospects in the championship game. The outfielder will be 21 next season and could already reach Double-A in 2016.
C Gary Sanchez 22 G, 26-96, 7 HR, 22 RBI, 19 K, 8 BB, 3 SB
Continuing off his great run in Triple-A this year, Sanchez took his bat into the fall and continued to mash. He led the league in home runs and RBI, hitting .295/.357/.625 overall, and should be in the running for league MVP. For all we know, by the end of spring training, he could be on the major league roster.
SS Tyler Wade 14 G, 9-49, 6 RBI, 7 K, 6 BB, 2 SB
The Yankees' young shortstop didn't have a very good fall as he hit poorly and finished the offseason with an injury that kept him out of the playoff run. Regardless, Wade will be the starting shortstop at either Trenton or Scranton, depending how the organization wants to go.
LHP Ian Clarkin 6 G, 34 H, 16 ER, 17 K, 14 BB, 24.2 IP
After a lost season, Clarkin finally returned to the mound in the AFL, but he pitched terribly. It's likely that rust had to do with some of his 5.84 ERA, but we'll have to see how he does next year. He will return to the High-A Tampa level in 2016.
LHP Chaz Hebert 7 G, 13 H, 9 R/7 ER, 12 K, 10 BB, 14.1 IP
Despite his successful 2015 campaign, Hebert wasn't given much time to impress this fall. He pitched well at first, but struggled right at the end to inflate his numbers. He should pitch at the Double-A Trenton level in 2016.
LHP Tyler Webb 6 G, 9 H, 7 ER, 5 K, 3 BB, 7.2 IP
Webb participated in the AFL to make up for the some of the innings he lost during the season thanks to injury. Unfortunately, he struggled to the tune of an 8.22 ERA in limited time. He'll probably get some playing time in spring training, but his results here didn't earn him any benefit of the doubt against Chasen Shreve and Jacob Lindgren.
