Semifinal 2
It will be Gary Sanchez against Dellin Betances in the second semifinal. Sanchez had 104 home runs in the Yankees farm system and was one of the club’s best prospects at a young age. As for Betances, most of his minor league outings were as a starter, but the shutdown reliever had 732 strikeouts while playing in the minors.
It is up to you to determine who makes the championship. May the best prospects win.
