FIELDING
Pickoffs: Carson (Miclat at 1st base).

a-Intentionally walked for Malo in the 9th.

Robert Carson had a quality start this afternoon in his 2nd Double-A start.  It appears the BMets left him in a tad to long as he gave up just 2 runs through 6, but they sent him out for the 7th where he issued his only walk of the game before giving up a triple to score a run. Edgar Ramirez replaced him with two outs and allowed for an inherited runner to score accounting for Carson’s last run. It doesn’t matter where you put him in the lineup card he will hit as Captain Kirk was moved to the clean up spot and delivered with a 2-out RBI double.

Familia Familia Familia. What to do with you. Your stuff is so great, but that command.  The weirdest part is that he has never had command issues before so it is confusing as to where these problems are coming from.

Savannah 4 | West Virginia 8

It took a little while, but it seems Cesar Puello and Jefry Marte have finally stepped up and took control of this team.  I would like to see Puello add some power to his repertoire but I am happy he is getting on base more to show off his plus plus speed.  While he is still sucking Nick Santomauro has also made some slight improvements lately.

SSA – New York-Penn League

Lowell 4 | Brooklyn 5

FIELDING
E: Centeno (3, throw), Vaughn (3, fielding), Cuan 2 (2, throw, throw).

Steady Cory Vaughn. He just keeps hitting, stealing, walking, and driving in runs and doing it way better than anyone thought he would.  I don’t think Ryan Fraser knows how to allow a run or even a base runner for that matter.
