What happened: The Yankees signed Drew Gonzalez, their sixth-round pick and a high school draftee, officially starting his professional career. He becomes the second of the organization's four prep selections to put pen to paper.

Why it matters: The signing keeps New York's amateur pipeline moving as the club works through its 2026 draft class. The other two prep picks have strong indications they will also sign.

What to watch: The Yankees await word on the signing status of their remaining two prep draftees.
