Austin Jackson made the list and he is ranked 27th overall. Jesus Montero was ranked 40th on the list. These two guys are pretty much the top 2 prospects in the farm system, so I doubt any other Yankees will make the list ahead of them.
Austin Jackson Scouting Report:
2008 SeasonTeamLeagueAVGGABRH2B3BHRRBITBBBSOSBCSOBPSLGOPSTREEAS.2851315207514833596921856113196.354.419.773Scouting report: He is an athletic outfielder, who used to be basketball standout, and is still refining game. He's working on a more consistent approach at the plate, but needs to cut down on strikeouts a bit. There's potential to have decent power at some point down the line. He has speed with some ability to steal a few bases and is good defensively in center with above-average range and a good arm.
Jesus Montero Scouting Report:

His defensive skills have improved but lag behind the bat. Specifically, he's worked on the lower-half flexibility needed to be a quality receiver.
