The New York Yankees won another division crown in 2012, finishing 95-67 before being swept by the Detroit Tigers in the American League Championship Series. For their efforts, they get the 26th overall pick in the 2013 First-Year Player draft.
In addition, after years of losing draft picks when they signed free agents from other teams, the Yankees get two compensation picks for losing their own free agents to other teams. For losing Nick Swisher (to Cleveland) and Rafael Soriano (to Washington), they get the last two picks of the first round, Nos. 32 and 33.
With three picks in the first round of the draft on Thursday and another 39 rounds on Friday and Saturday, Brian Cashman and the team’s front office will be busy.
