Earlier this year (April), I sat down for an extensive interview with Yankees top prospect George Lombard Jr. The Lombard episode has never run in full, until now. Lombard discusses his adjustment to professional baseball, his journey growing up as the son of a pro player, even the little pieces of advice he maintains to stay humble and grounded. You will hear from this conversation that the Yankees have an excellent young player and person. What is most impressive is not his physical gifts but his intellect, focus, and maturity. Lombard will be tested in the Bronx; the pressure is tremendous and the lights are brighter than ever, but he is built for this moment.
