Spring Training Prospect Watch

🚀 Standout of The Day

George Lombard Jr., SS, New York Yankees

Stats: 2/4 HR

Notable Data: 104.2 MPH HR off Crochet, 108.5 mph Single off Crochet

Why The Performance Matters:

Lombard created a ton of hype last spring as he entered camp stronger and just looked the part in spring action. The season did not go as planned statistically, but Lombard made plenty of notable strides as a player.

This spring, he looks to have taken another big step. Lombard led off the game yesterday by blasting a 392-foot home run off Garrett Crochet that left the bat with a 104.2 mph exit velocity. Next time around, Lombard smoked a single off Crochet that left the bat with a 108.5 mph exit velocity.

The surface numbers for Lombard were pretty meh again in 2025 as he slashed .235/.367/.381 for the season with nine home runs and 35 stolen bases. The underlying metrics steadily improved all season. Lombard posted a 103.3 mph 90th percentile exit velocity, which was improvement on 2024 and seems to be taking another step with power now.

The approach is sound and the contact skills are respectable. Lombard is still a very talented prospect who could be ready for MLB by the end of the season.

Fantasy Spin:

Lombard is not likely to see playing time in the Bronx this year, but it is not crazy to think he has a short stint in Double-A this year before spending a lot of the year in Triple-A. With growth in some areas, a late season call-up would not be out of the question. -CC
