Prospect Update Nov. 8

First off, check out this video of Phil Hughes. It's the only video I've seen of him from the normal TV broadcast angle (besides the Futures Game). Pretty nasty stuff (too bad it doesn't have the pitch speed). Check out the incredible change he throws to the first hitter, then during the montage, it shows one of his nasty curves (sick!). I wish there were more clips like this - most of them are shot by fans, so you can hardly follow the action.

When you're done with that, check out Baseball America's list of the top Yankee prospects... Done? Then on with the update:
