Yanks Sign Reid Gorecki

According to Baseball America, the Yankees have signed outfielder Reid Gorecki to a minor-league deal. Here's what LoHud's Chad Jennings had to say about Gorecki:
Once a highly-touted prospect in the Cardinals system, Gorecki’s career momentarily stalled in Double-A. He played just 21 Triple-A games in the Cardinals’ system, but he got his career going again with the Braves. Last season, in the pitching friendly International League, he hit .286 with nine home runs, 27 doubles, six triples and 14 stolen bases. He made his major league debut during the 2009 season, getting just 25 at-bats with the Braves. He has played all three outfield positions, primarily center field.
Jennings also said that he will likely start the season in Triple-A Scranton.
