The Yankees have signed OF Mitchell Hansen, according to his Instagram account. The Dodgers released him a few days ago. He hit .256/.321/.409 (91 wRC+) in 254 minor league games after being their second round pick in 2015. Baseball America (subs. req’d) ranked Hansen as the No. 28 prospect in the Dodgers’ system before the season and says he has a “lefty swing with good leverage” that creates “good bat speed and average raw power.”
