FCL Yankees (23-24) (Lost to the Blue Jays, 9-5)
3B Richard Matic: 2-for-5, 2B (13), 2 R, 2 SB (14), K
.309/.427/.481 in 218 PA (13 doubles, 3 triples, 4 HR, 27 RBI, 54 R, 14-for-18 SB, 15.1% BB, 20.2% K).
RF Wilberson De Pena: 1-for-5, 2B (16), R, K
.342/.399/.663 in 203 PA. He keeps the strikeouts in check (18.2%).
C Queni Pineda: 2-for-3, HR (7), 3 RBI, R, BB
He’s 19 and spent a pair of seasons in the DSL, but he’s also a catcher who has hit in all three of these campaigns. His K% this year is high (29.6%), so we have to factor that in. Regardless, he’s done enough to earn a shot in Tampa at least.
2B Leni Done: 0-for-5, R, K
CF Jose Castro: 2-for-4, CS (8)
DH Francisco Vilorio: 3-for-4, RBI, SB (5)
He needed this, but he needs a whole lot more. He is hitting .191/.282/.294 in 78 PA.
SS Dexters Peralta: 0-for-4, 4 K
LF Estivenzon Montero: 1-for-4, 2B (6), SB (5), 2 K
1B Justin Capellan: 1-for-3, BB, K
RHP Anthony Mena (L, 1-2): 3.1 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, HR
RHP Andrew Landry: 0.2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 1 K
RHP Edinzo Marquez: 3 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K
1.23 ERA (22 IP, 14 H, 6 R, 3 ER, 1 HR, 11 BB, 23 K). That’s the good news. The bad news is that he is 21 years old and struggled in Tampa last season.
LHP Marco Manzano: 1 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 1 K
RHP Rafael Arias: 1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 2 K, HR
DSL Yankees (15-10) (Lost to the Blue Jays Red, 5-4)
CF Isaias Castillo: 1-for-5, 2B (10), R, SB (10)
.330/.444/.699 in 124 PA. He is 10-for-11 stealing bases.
SS Stiven Marinez: 0-for-5, SB (18), K
His OPS falls below 1.000 for the first time this season (.289/.420/.567).
DH Yostin Pena: 1-for-5, R, SB (19), 2 K
His debut campaign consists of 24 games, a .378/.454/.643 triple slash, 42 RBI, and a 19-for-20 stolen base rate.
2B Juan Torres: 2-for-3, R, SB (11), CS (4), HBP
Torres has seven multi-hit efforts in his last nine games. He is a Rookie League hit machine, compiling 93 in 71 career games. That’s good for a .365 average.
1B Juan Martinez: 0-for-4, 2 K
C Cesar Lopez: 1-for-3, BB, 2 K
RF Manuel Aguilar: 1-for-2, RBI, SB (6), K
The 16-year-old is 11-for-39. I am not sure why he was pulled.
PR-RF Eliezer Adames: 1-for-2
3B Abrahan Pichardo: 0-for-3, BB, K
LF Kendry Diaz: 1-for-3, 2B (4), R, BB, K
LHP Fredy Penuelas: 5.1 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, HR
1.05 ERA (25.2 IP, 19 H, 7 R, 3 ER, 1 HR, 8 BB, 33 K). He struggled during his 2025 debut campaign, but has rebounded nicely.
RHP Varis Villarreal: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K
DSL Bombers (11-15) (Lost to the DSL Mets Blue, 9-1)

C Alessandro Rodriguez: 1-for-3, 2B (4), R, SB (3), BB, K
The 17-year-old was given a brief taste of affiliated ball last year (2-for-15) and has come out on fire in 2026 (.344/.450/.459 in 80 PA)
DH Poly Ojeda: 1-for-2, 2B (2), SB (2), BB, K
CF Alfiery Matos: 1-for-3, 2 K
