BALTIMORE — It didn’t take long for Aaron Boone to notice Jhony Brito once spring training began.
Even though Brito was not high on the Yankees’ top prospects list, one of the right-hander’s early Tampa bullpens grabbed the manager’s attention. As Boone watched Brito throw from behind the mound, he alerted the organization’s pitching coaches standing nearby.
“He can help us,” Boone declared.
