Yankees prospect Trevor Hauver just can t stop hitting home runs.
The 22-year-old second baseman has now homered in each of his first five career professional games with six home runs total after crushing another one Sunday for the Low-A Tampa Tarpons.
Hauver, who s ranked the Yankees No. 23 prospect by MLB Pipeline, was New York s third-round Draft pick last year out of Arizona State, where he batted behind fellow slugger and No. 1 overall Draft pick Spencer Torkelson.
Hauver s latest homer came leading off the sixth inning Sunday against Blue Jays prospect Daniel Ponce. Hauver has also homered against Toronto prospects Adrian Hernandez, Juan De Paula, Jiorgeny Casimiri, Naswell Paulino and Davis Schneider.

I hope that everyone had a good Mother’s Day yesterday. The sun popped out for a bit here in Southern Ontario and that always helps when you are stuck in lock down. As for the Jays organization, all four affiliates were in action 3 times over the weekend, finishing their final games in their first series of the 2021 season. As noted, all the clubs have off-days Monday.

TORONTO When you combine today’s social media landscape with the fan-driven demand for prospect coverage, Yosver Zulueta is about as mysterious as it gets.
As the 23-year-old Cuban with wide shoulders sits down in the Toronto Blue Jays’ worn out Zoom room this past week alongside team translator Tito Lebron, he looks a touch nervous and a little bit confused.
Almost like, ‘Why do you want to talk to me with George Springer, Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. around?’
Well, Yosver, your fastball has been speaking for you.
And it’s loud.
Right off the bat, when the strange journalist in a hooded sweatshirt from Toronto says nice to meet you, Zulueta responds in almost perfect English: “Nice to meet you, too.”

TORONTO At the major-league level, things have changed.
The Toronto Blue Jays have very clearly shifted from the teardown stage to the process of building, spending and adding, but that doesn’t mean the rebuild is complete.
Far from it.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, a season or one off-season, and that rings true for the Jays.
