Since moving into the rotation Josh Stinson has just gotten better and better. He has increased his ground balls, giving up less hits, and pitching to a .94 WHIP compared to a 1.23 as a reliever. As each game goes on he appears to get better and better. The two new BMets contributed big time to the offensive outburst combining to go 6-for-11 with 3 RBI’s and 2 runs. While his average has been high all year Eric Campbell is finally showing some power slugging .581 in his last ten games during which he has hit 2 of his 3 home runs.
HiA – St. Lucie Mets

Mark Cohoon has been just absolutely ridiculous this year.

Josh Satin deserves the MVP of the game going 3-for-5 with a home run and 3 RBI’s. Sean Ratliff was 1-for-4 and Stefan Welch was 0-for-2.

Dylan Owen had his first rough outing in AAA today giving up 4 runs on 6 hits. His peripherals actually still look really good as he has struck out a batter per inning during his stint in AAA and only walked 4 batters so far. Today he was victimized by the longball, which will probably be in the only thing holding him back from being able to start in the big leagues and force him into a relief role.
Not that the Mets have any brains in their organization, but Jesus Feliciano went 5 for 5 today with 2 doubles and is now hitting over .400 on the season. But Gary Matthews Jr. had a walk today so that should be enough to keep him around for another month. Daniel Murphy had a big day driving in four runs.
AA – Binghamton Mets
Josh Stinson had to pick up the spot start today and did pretty well giving up just 2 hits and 2 walks while pitching into the fifth inning. Stinson has been a starter in the past, but has been used exclusively out of the bullpen over the last two years so it was nice to see he can still be a long reliever if needed.
Nick Evans teed off on Akron pitching today driving in the go ahead run in the 5th with a solo home run and adding on in the 7th inning with a two-run home run that would account for the winning runs. Reese Havens joined in the power game belting his first home run of the year. The 3-4-5 hitters combined to go 8-for-11 with 3 home runs, 4 RBI’s, and 4 runs on the day.
HiA – St. Lucie Mets
After hitting just 8 home runs all of last year 2nd baseman Josh Satin is already up to 5 on the season after a solo shot in the 4th. Although he is old for the Florida State League he is demonstrating good power in such a hitters league. When I saw him he had really good gap power, but also a lot of room to fill out and it looks like the added muscle is turning some of those doubles into homers. Joey August saw his 9-game hit streak come to an end after an o-for-3 performance.
Wesley Wrenn was able to settle down after early trouble, but had to leave early after throwing so many pitches to get through the 2nd inning. The Mets, however, received some great bullpen work and were able to put up zeroes and give the offense the chance to come back in the late innings.
LoA – Savannah Sand Gnats

The Gnats had no problem holding the lead from yesterday’s suspended game, but things didn’t go so smoothly in game #2. Darin Gorski was roughed up for 5 runs and John Church had his first bad outing of the year raising his ERA all the way up to 1.76! Wilmer Flores got on base twice to help get out of a mini slump as he is batting .150 over his last 10 games and drove in a run in the process on a first inning single to score Pedro Zapata. Jefry Marte and Cesar Puello also had good games as Marte went deep and Puello swiped two more bags.
Raul Reyes has a nice swing, but must work on his pitch selection.
Ross Seaton is a pretty damn good pitcher. Good 2-seam fastball.
I am loving the cheerleaders in between innings.
Robert Carson complete domination of the Lexington lineup as he throws 2nd 9-inning complete game shutout in the SAL league.
Robert Carson’s pitchcount: 22 Balls – 70 strikes = 92 total pitches.
Carson threw mostly fastballs that he located with perfection that the Legends just simply could not hit. The fastball was mostly 88-90 and he did hit 92 once. He could throw the fastball up, down, in, out no matter what the pitch was just unhittable. He threw some sliders that went as high as 86 mph. He did a good job keeping it down getting grounders with it when he threw it. I saw only a handful of change ups that he didn’t really need to use, but threw a few and located them well. Nothing bad from Carson on the night.
1st inning:
- Jefry Marte jumped on a first pitch fastball that was high to clobber it into deep left field for a homerun.
