“Sh*t, dude looks like Gerrit Cole” “looking great in pinstripes” - New York Yankees fans react to standout college outfielder signing with the team

New York Yankees fourth-round draft pick Anthony Hall, out of the University of Oregon, signed his contract with the team this afternoon. Many fans were excited about the signing. Here’s a look at some of the best reactions across Twitter.

Hall almost looks like starting pitcher Gerrit Cole.

Anthony Hall sure does look great in pinstripes!

Hall is now part of the most historic franchise in MLB history.

Anthony Hall is an outfielder, and some fans are wanting him to be called up for Joey Gallo.

Anthony Hall had a great season at Oregon, batting .333 with 14 home runs and 56 runs batted in. Hall has the potential to be another great outfielder for the pinstripes.

Andrew Benintendi has gotten off to a great start for the Kansas City Royals and will undoubtedly be a top trade candidate this summer.

With outfielders Joey Gallo and Aaron Hicks struggling a bit for the Yankees, Benintendi would be a solid option for the Yankees and would complement the powerful lineup with his solid bat-to-ball skills.
