Ynoa → Jaime → Zack Littell + Dietrick Enns Scouting grades: Fastball: 55 | Curveball: 55 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 55 | Overall: 45 It didn't make nearly as many headlines as the Aroldis Chapman and Andrew Miller trades, but the deal that sent James Pazos to the Mariners last November netted the Yankees a potential starting pitcher in Littell. Extremely young (age 17) and projectable when he signed for $100,000 in the 11th round of the 2013 Draft, he lowered his ERA at each of his five stops in the Seattle system. He went 13-6 with a 2.66 ERA and 156 strikeouts in 165 2/3 innings between two Class A teams last year. He had earned a promotion up to Double-A in 2017 and was pitching well there when he was sent to the Twins in a Deadline deal for Jaime Garcia. Littell has improved his conditionining and his stuff, working at 91-93 mph with a fastball that plays up thanks to its rising life and his command. His best offering is often his curveball, which has depth and can be a plus pitch at times. His changeup has its moments as well and helps him keep left-handers in check. Littell's pitchability may be more impressive than his stuff. He can't overpower hitters but he mixes his pitches, pounds the strike zone and keeps the ball down, generating plenty of strikeouts and groundouts. He has a ceiling of a No. 4 starter, perhaps more if he can add more power to his pitches. --
