George Lombard Jr., a 20-year-old prospect for the New York Yankees, has been reassigned to the minor-league camp after a poor performance in the Grapefruit League. Despite being just 20 years old, Lombard is expected to be major-league ready within a year or a year. His performance was praised by manager Aaron Boone, coaching staff, and other Yankees players for his consistency and ability to play shortstop and hit. Lombard was cut after he played second base in a game against the Tigers, whose bench coach is former big-league outfielder George Lombard. He will likely repeat Double-A before potentially earning a promotion to Triple-A at some point.
