Sean Henn

Henn may have a future as a long reliever, as he's never been able to win consistently as a starter at any professional level. Control was a problem in 2006, as he issued 25 free passes in 52 innings of mixed work as a starter and reliever between Triple-A Columbus and New York. He'll likely spend this season at Triple-A to complete his transition to reliever.

Henn made a couple of terrible starts for the Yankees midway through 2005, but was excellent after returning to Triple-A, putting up a 3.23 ERA for Columbus. He throws in the mid-to-high 90s and won't be 25 until after the season starts, so there's a reasonable chance he can grow to help the Yankees or, better, contribute elsewhere. He's not a top prospect but worth stashing on a minor league roster since he's close to making it to the majors.

Henn was a 26th round draft pick in 2000 by the Yankees, who had his career de-railed by 2002 Tommy John surgery. Originally projected as a starter, he can throw in the high 90s but hasn’t effectively developed a breaking pitch, and the surgery likely stunted that growth further. At an advanced age of 22, it will be difficult to effectively develop a second and third major league caliber pitch, and he’s likely being looked at more as a potential reliever these days.
