Marco Luciano Clears Waivers, Joins Yankees Triple-A Affiliate

After three waiver claims by different teams, former San Francisco Giants top prospect Marco Luciano has finally cleared waivers, landing with the New York Yankees' Triple-A affiliate, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. The 24-year-old, who was once a top-100 prospect, struggled in 41 MLB games with the Giants, slashing .217/.286/.304. Out of options, Luciano's right-handed power and positional versatility (LF/1B/DH) make him an intriguing option for the Yankees, who have a lefty-dominated lineup.
