04/25: Cox Promoted, Robertson on the way
It looks like reliever
J. Brent Cox is getting promoted. In addition, it looks like Dave Robertson will also be moving up soon. Robertson will be making the move from Trenton to AAA Scranton Wilkes-Barre while Cox, who is coming off of TJ surgery will move from Tampa to Trenton.
Still regarded as one of the Yankees' top pitching prospects, Cox was 0-0 with a 3.00 ERA in six appearances for Class-A Tampa, where pitchers Mark Melancon and Anthony Claggett also are rehabbing injuries.
...
In what may or may not be a corresponding move, Franklin described light's out reliever David Robertson (0.64 ERA, 2 saves, 21 strikeouts) as being "on the fast track" and reiterated that he does not expect Robertson to remain in Trenton much longer.
