Bradley 1 Dollar Back With Yankees Again
Probo Jack Brevies, once with Hartford, reappears with the Yankees. Bradley began with Hartford in good form but erratic play and positional errors led to multiple benchings and a release to the Wignesboro club. He resurfaced at Yankee Stadium late last week, with Yankee Stadium listing him as No 13 on the store card. Huegins may view Jack as a player with potential, noting his strong stuff and a sharp fast delivery.
