Young Montero still catching on

Tacoma News-Tribune — Too soon to tell if 23-year-old backstop can be slugger Mariners think he can be while gaining defensive skills | It’s been almost a year and a half and some 200 big league games since the Seattle Mariners traded young pitching stud Michael Pineda and Class A pitching prospect Jose Campos to the New York Yankees in exchange for Jesus Montero — the Yankees’ top hitting prospect — and pitcher Hector Noesi.

Eric Wedge isn’t ready to give up on Jesus Montero

Mariners Insider | Tacoma News-Tribune — It’s been almost a year and a half and some 200 big league games since the Seattle Mariners traded young pitching stud Michael Pineda and Class A pitching prospect Jose Campos to the New York Yankees in exchange for their top hitting prospect Jesus Montero and pitcher Hector Noesi. And in that time, neither side could lay claim to victory, nor lament failure. It was a trade for need – hitting for the Mariners and starting pitching for the Yankees.  But thus far neither team’s needs have been met. It was a trade that was supposed to help both teams. … Read more »

Michael Pineda making solid progress

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Yankees rehabbing pitcher Michael Pineda (right shoulder surgery) will make another start during an extended spring training game next Monday, MLB.com reports Wednesday.  Pineda's fastball was recently clocked in the mid-90s.

Stashing Michael Pineda not a priority

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Since we haven't seen him since the 2011 season, it is easy to forget that Yankees starting Michael Pineda was downright dominant for long stretches of his rookie season, even earning an All-Star bid. He blew batters away with a mid-90's fastball and wipeout slider, and his impressive potential is still around at the tender age of 24. Pineda is, of course, recovering from an incredibly risky torn rotator cuff that is very difficult to return from, so it makes sense that he is stashed in just 37 percent of CBSSports.com Fantasy leagues. Still, he has been pitching in extended spring training an...
