Yankees promote prospects Judge, Austin

Judgement Day has arrived.

The New York Yankees have announced that their fourth-ranked prospect, Aaron Judge, will be in the lineup Saturday against the Tampa Bay Rays. New York also promoted Tyler Austin.

At a hulking 6-foot-7 and 275-pounds, Judge tore it up in Triple-A, slashing .270/.366/.489 with 19 home runs, 65 RBI's and 18 doubles in 93 games at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

A product of Cal State Fresno, Judge was drafted 31st overall by the Oakland Athletics in 2010 out of high school, but turned it down to go to college. He was drafted again, 32nd overall, by the Yankees in 2013.

Austin, who was selected out of high school in 2010, will also make his big league debut against the Rays at first base.

This season between Double-A and Triple-A, he batted .294/.392/.524 with 17 home runs, 78 RBI's and 34 doubles in 107 games.
