The New York Yankees number eight prospect Richard Fitts joins the show! Fitts, who was drafted out of Auburn University by the Yankees in 2021, has made it to Double-A Somerset and has appeared in 11 games so far this season. The righthander tells us how things are going for him in 2023 and he told us what it was like to appear in the College World Series back in 2019, who also let us know he’d like to face—dead or alive—in an at-bat( the answer may surprise you) and he told us who the best pitcher is right now on his team. We also had him answer some rapid fire questions about music, TV and movies so you can get to know him better. And since it’s Friday you know what came next, Fanmail Friday! We answer your questions about Kyle Higashioka and José Trevino, plus a question about Austin Wells, who could be the catcher of the future for the Yankees and what is going on with DJ LeMahieu and Luis Severino? We answer questions about them as well.
