Yanks '09 1st rounder Slade Heathcott returns to action

After being drafted by the Yankees with the 29th overall pick in the 2009 MLB draft, outfielder Slade Heathcott played in 3 games for the GCL Yankees (Rookie level), going 1 for 10. Heathcott has finally played his first minor league ball in '10. In 4 games with the Low-A Charleston Riverdogs, Heathcott has gone 7 for 17 with 1 double, 0 homers, 1 RBI, 1 SB, 4 runs, and a .500 OBP. He has not made any errors in CF. All these stats pretty much mean nothing, considering how few games he has played, but it's nice to know that he's at least playing.
