Yankees MILB 5/31: Oswald Peraza: BOOM x 2!

News:

Nothing new or exciting to report.

Scranton (27-26) (Defeated Lehigh Valley, 7-5, in ten innings)

CF Estevan Florial2-for-6, 3B (3), RBI, K
Florial is in the midst of a 10-game hitting streak. He has five multi-hit games during the streak and has at least one extra-base hit in nine of the games. Overall, he is hitting .322/.432/.645.
SS Oswald Peraza: 3-for-6, 2 HR (9), 2 RBI, 3 RS
Peraza is now the owner of a 7-game hitting streak and has 8 HR in his last ten games. This is his 4th career multi-HR game (second this month). I have said since Spring Training that he has nothing to prove here. I don’t care about a logjam in MLB – Peraza does not belong here.  Anyway, he is hitting .347/.398/.663.
LF Elijah Dunham2-for-5, 2 K
.219/.347/.331 in 202 plate appearances. He started the season strong (.256/.378/.390 in April) but simply couldn’t get much going in May. 
3B Andres Chaparro0-for-5, 3 K
He finishes May 26-for-89 (.292) with 3 HR and 20 RBI. 
  PR-3B Wilmer Difo: 0-for-0, RS
RF Kole Calhoun2-for-5, 3B (2), 2 RBI, RS, K
DH Rodolfo Duran1-for-4, RBI, RS, BB
.283/.338/.542 in 130 plate appearances. 
1B Billy McKinney1-for-4, BB, 2 K
C Carlos Narvaez1-for-2, RS, 3 BB, K
Since his promotion: 10-for-37 with 14 (!) walks and seven strikeouts. There is a catching logjam that will only get larger when Josh Breaux gets back here.
2B Jamie Westbrook1-for-4, BB, 2 K, CS (2)

RHP Mitch Spence: 7 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K
4.26 ERA (57 IP, 54 H, 32 R, 27 ER, 10 HR, 21 BB, 45 K). Spence compiled a 2.21 ERA in 36.2 May innings.
RHP Deivi Garcia: 1 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 1 K
4.78 ERA (26.1 IP, 22 H, 15 R, 14 ER, 3 HR, 21 BB, 27 K). Simply put, you aren’t surviving in the big leagues with this kind of walk rate. Again, the Yankees have a free year of evaluation with Garcia, so may as well use it to see if anything clicks.
RHP Matt Bowman (W, 2-0): 2 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 1 K

Somerset (26-20) (Defeated Portland, 4-2)

SS Trey Sweeney0-for-3, BB, K
Sweeney walked 23 times in 24 May games (26 K). He hit .222/.383/.333 during the month.
CF Jasson Dominguez1-for-4, K
Dominguez finishes May at .237/.353/.412 after a .140/.380/.340 April. 
1B T.J. Rumfield0-for-3, SF, RBI
Rumfield had a strong May, hitting .273/.383/.515 (4 doubles, 4 HR, 12 RBI, 12 R)
3B Caleb Durbin1-for-4, RS
Since promotion: .254/.347/.333 in 72 plate appearances with 7 walks and only 2 strikeouts. The Braves recently DFA’s Lucas Luetge, the pitcher who the Yankees sent over for Durbin (and RHP Indigo Diaz)
LF Jeisson Rosario1-for-3, HR (6), 2 RBI, RS
6 of Rosario’s 17 hits have gone over the fence. His BABIP is an insanely low .180.
C Anthony Seigler1-for-3
2B Max Burt1-for-3, K
RF Aaron Palensky0-for-2, HBP, SB (1)
Palensky is a perfect 11-for-11 stealing bases between here and Hudson Valley.
DH Mickey Gasper1-for-2, HR (1), RBI, 2 RS, HBP

RHP Clayton Beeter (W, 3-2): 5.1 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 3 K
2.66 ERA (44 IP, 35 H, 13 R, 13 ER, 3 HR, 25 BB, 52 K)
LHP Edgar Barclay1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 3 K
Barclay’s first appearance of 2023 (and first in Double-A). He pitched to a 1.74 ERA and 33.5% K rate for Hudson Valley last season. He is someone to watch.
RHP Danny Watson1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 0 K
While he didn’t strike anyone out in his Double-A debut, he was a K machine for Hudson Valley.
RHP Zac Houston0.2 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 1 K
RHP Alex Mauricio (S, 2): 0.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 0 K

Hudson Valley (27-20) (Lost to Aberdeen, 7-4)

CF Spencer Jones2-for-5, 2 2B (15), RS, 2 K
Jones has 21 doubles (35 extra-base hits) in 64 career games.
SS Alexander Vargas0-for-5, 2 K
C Josh Breaux3-for-5, HR (1), 2 RBI, 2 RS, K
One has to assume he will make his way to Scranton soon enough. That will place four catchers in Triple-A: Ben Rortvedt, Rodolfo Duran, Carlos Narvaez, and Breaux. I assume Narvaez will be the one on the way back to Somerset.
DH Spencer Henson2-for-5, 3 K
1B Rafael Flores2-for-3, 2B (7), RBI, BB
.328/.381/.403 in 147 plate appearances. A surprising early entry in the “race” for the organization’s batting crown.
2B Ben Cowles1-for-4, 2 K
He finishes May with a 5-game hitting streak and an overall .333/.400/.439 line.
LF Grant Richardson1-for-4, HR (5), RBI, RS, K
He hit .203/.284/.329 in May. However, the good news is that he started very slow before coming on strong over the past few weeks.
RF Aldenis Sanchez0-for-3, BB, K, CS (2)
3B Marcos Cabrera0-for-3, BB

RHP Tyrone Yulie (L, 1-3): 4.1 IP, 2 H, 5 R, 0 ER, 5 BB, 5 K, HR
This is a “fascinating” stat line.
RHP Mason Vinyard1.1 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 1 K
Vinyard’s High-A debut (14 games of 3.33 ERA ball for Tampa)
RHP Carlos Gomez1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K
LHP Josh Maciejewski2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K
Maciejewski’s first appearance since 7/4/22. He pitched to a 2.88 ERA in 34.1 IP for Somerset last season (he had one rough start for Scranton, as well)

Tampa (20-27) (Defeated Bradenton, 2-1, in ten innings)

2B Jared Serna0-for-4, SF, RBI, 3 K
Serna’s 10-game hitting streak is snapped.
RF-CF Daury Arias1-for-5
Arias went 22-for-80 (.275) in May. He hit .167/.254/.250 in April.
C Agustin Ramirez2-for-3, 2B (5), RBI, 2 BB
Ramirez walks it off in the 10th. He has walked seven times in his last two games (18 times in May to go along with his 5 doubles and 4 home runs)
DH Anthony Hall: 1-for-3, BB, K, SB (2)
Hall goes 23-for-68 in May with 17 walks. Again, I can’t imagine him being here for too long.
SS Brenny Escanio0-for-3, BB, K
CF Nelson Medina1-for-1, RS, SB (7)
Medina has been solid thus far, so let’s hope that any injury he has suffered is short-term.
  PH-RF Felix Negueis0-for-3, 2 K
1B Omar Martinez1-for-4, K, SB (2)
LF Tayler Aguilar0-for-3, BB, K
3B Brett Barrera0-for-4, RS, K

RHP Kris Bow3.1 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 K
Bow’s most impressive outing to date (he struggled in his first two starts of 2023). His experience is limited but he seems to have some good stuff to work with (a mid-90s sinker is always a nice start)
RHP Yorlin Calderon2.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 3 K
2.38 ERA (22.2 IP, 20 H, 7 R, 6 ER, 2 HR, 8 BB, 27 K). Calderon tossed a 7-inning no-hitter in his debut at this level last year. In 2023, they have kept him in the bullpen with solid results. 
LHP Geoffrey Gilbert1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 0 K
2.14 ERA (21 IP, 16 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 0 HR, 11 BB, 26 K). Some have asked if he can be stretched out to start, given he did a little starting for Clemson. I am sure the Yankees will consider it as they have tried that path with many of their pitching prospects. 
RHP Matt Keating1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K
2.11 ERA (21.1 IP, 16 H, 8 R, 5 ER, 2 HR, 11 BB, 32 K). Even after the promotion of Watson, strong arms remain down here in Tampa.
RHP Cole Ayers: (W, 1-1) 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4 K

Yankees MILB 5/25: Estevan Florial Hits a Slam

News:

Nothing new to report.

Scranton (23-25) (Walloped Worcester (the Red Sox affiliate) again, 10-1)

CF Estevan Florial1-for-5, HR (11, GS), 4 RBI, RS, 4 K
If this night doesn’t describe Estevan Florial, what does? He is hitting .313/.433/.619 in 164 PA (4 doubles, 2 triples, 11 HR, 25 RBI, 30 R, 29 BB (17.7%), 55 K (33.5%), 10-for-15 SB). He has eight home runs in his last ten games. That is absurd.
3B Josh Donaldson1-for-3
The rehab begins.
  PH-3B Wilmer Difo1-for-2, RBI
SS Oswald Peraza1-for-5, HR (5), RBI, RS, 2 K
Peraza has homered in back-to-back games and has four home runs in his last five games. He is hitting .333/.385/.583.
RF Kole Calhoun2-for-5, 3 RS, K
DH Andres Chaparro: 2-for-3, HBP
Chaparro is back up to .260/.335/.497 in 194 plate appearances. He is 7-for-16 in his last four games, though it (surprisingly) comes without an extra-base hit.
LF Elijah Dunham3-for-4, 2 RBI, 2 RS
He is starting to collect some hits, but most of the games have been 1-for types. Tonight’s 3-hit effort was much needed.
C Rodolfo Duran: 2-for-3, 2B (10), 2 RBI, RS, HBP
.296/.345/.583 in 116 plate appearances (10 doubles, 7 HR, 24 RBI, 14 R, 6 BB, 23 K). Duran hit .202 in 2021 and .222 last season.
2B Jamie Westbrook0-for-4, K
1B Carlos Narvaez1-for-2, 2B (1), 2 RS, 2 BB
Narvaez is 5-for-23 (.217) since his promotion, but that comes with 8 walks (.419 OBP)

RHP Mitch Spence: (W, 4-2)  5.2 IP, 7 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 3 K
4.86 ERA (50 IP, 52 H, 32 R, 27 ER, 10 HR, 19 BB, 42 K)
RHP Tommy Kahnle: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 0 K
One has to assume he will be back in the Bronx soon.
RHP James Norwood0.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K
RHP Colten Brewer1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K
RHP Greg Weissert1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K

Somerset (24-17) (Lost to Erie, 7-6)

SS Trey Sweeney0-for-4, BB, 2 K, SB (7)
Sweeney has 19 walks in May. He is 17-for-71 during this stretch (.239)
CF Jasson Dominguez0-for-3, RS, 2 BB, K
.194/.358/.380 in 165 plate appearances. One had to expect some ups and downs at this level – he’ll get hot again.
RF Everson Pereira1-for-4, BB, 2 K, SB (7)
Obviously, whatever the reason for him being pulled in the first inning last night was no big deal. Pereira extends his hitting streak to eight (14-for-30). His triple slash has improved from .228/.297/.436 to .282/.349/.504 during the streak.
3B Tyler Hardman1-for-4, 3B (2), RBI, K
15 of Hardman’s 26 hits have gone for extra bases (.226/.305/.513)
2B Caleb Durbin2-for-4, 2 RBI, RS, CS (3)
Durbin now has one strikeout in 56 plate appearances since his promotion (1.8%) and ten in 153 PA overall (6.5%). All the contact is finally leading to some results for Durbin, who has back-to-back multi-hit games and is now hitting .250 for Somerset.
C Anthony Seigler0-for-3, RS, BB, 2 K
Seigler has walked in eight straight games (11 walks). He is only 2-for-23 in those games.
LF Jeisson Rosario1-for-4, K
DH Max Burt0-for-4, 3 K
1B Eric Wagaman2-for-4, HR (3), 3 RBI, RS
Wagaman does have some pop, evidenced by hitting 13 home runs in 69 games last season. He has seven home runs in 35 career Double-A contests.

RHP Clayton Beeter5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 6 K
3.03 ERA (38.2 IP, 32 H, 13 R, 13 ER, 3 HR, 21 BB, 49 K). To reach his full potential, he will need to bring that BB rate down. That said, the strikeout rate remains strong.
RHP Indigo Diaz1 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 2 K
3.12 ERA (17.1 IP, 17 H, 7 R, 6 ER, 0 HR, 15 BB, 25 K)
RHP Justin Wilson (L, 0-1): 1 IP, 3 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, HR
LHP Michael Giacone1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K
1.86 ERA (19.1 IP, 12 H, 6 R, 4 ER, 1 HR, 10 BB, 25 K). He has 100 strikeouts in 72.2 career innings.

Hudson Valley (25-17) (After a brutal 10-9 loss last night, they score three in the final two innings to win 10-8 tonight)

CF Spencer Jones0-for-4, RBI, RS, BB, 3 K
Jones is down to .272/.313/.530 in 163 PA. He is 5-for-34 in his last eight games with 17 strikeouts.
SS Alexander Vargas2-for-5, RBI, RS, K, CS (4)
I was wondering how he might react to his extended slump. So far, he is 6-for-15 in his last three games. 
LF Aaron Palensky: 3-for-5, 2 2B (7), HR (12), 3 RBI, 3 RS, 2 K, SB (9)
His ridiculous triple slash is up to .333/.414/.718 in 133 plate appearances. Palensky is 9-for-17 in his last four games with three doubles and two home runs. 
C Antonio Gomez1-for-5, 2B (5), RBI, RS
It has been a struggle for Gomez, but his double in the top of the 9th gave Hudson Valley the 9-8 lead.
DH Spencer Henson2-for-5, RS
This is a nice follow-up to his four-hit game yesterday. These two games alone have improved his triple slash from .241/.336/.491 to .269/.353/.513.
1B Rafael Flores4-for-5, 2 RBI, RS, K
Flores has a pair of 4-hit games this year (in addition to two 3-hit contests). He is hitting .333/.388/.410 in 134 plate appearances. His BABIP is high, as you may suspect (.444)
RF Grant Richardson2-for-4, 2 RBI, RS, BB, K
Richardson now has a 7-game hitting streak (10-for-24). He is getting closer and closer to breaking the .200 barrier (.188).
3B Eduardo Torrealba1-for-5, 2 K
2B Ben Cowles2-for-5, RS, 2 K, SB (4)
Cowles is 17-for-53 (.321) in May after an 11-for-53 (.208) line in April.

RHP Zach Messinger4 IP, 8 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 4 BB, 2 K
3.12 ERA (40.1 IP, 36 H, 20 R, 14 ER, 2 HR, 18 BB, 46 K). Back-to-back less-than-ideal efforts, but one has to expect that from Messinger, who is still a newbie in the world of being a starting pitcher.
RHP Enrique Santana2 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, HR
RHP Danny Watson (W, 3-1): 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K
1.54 ERA (23.1 IP, 11 H, 6 R, 4 ER, 1 HR, 9 BB, 39 K)
RHP Jack Neely (S, 2): 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K
2.16 ERA (16.2 IP, 10 H, 6 R, 4 ER, 1 HR, 12 BB, 25 K). Both Watson and Neely are legitimate relief prospects who should find themselves in Double-A soon enough.

Tampa (15-26) (Lost to Palm Beach, 6-5, in ten innings ) – Due to a late start to Game 1, Game 2 was postponed. Hence, Game 1 was converted into a 9-inning game instead of a 7-inning game. Tomorrow, they will try to play two. Got it? Good.

SS Jared Serna2-for-5, 2B (7), HR (8), RBI, 2 RS, 2 K
Serna is up to .328 (7 doubles, 1 triple, 8 HR, 22 RBI, 24 R, 15 BB, 19 K, 8-for-11 SB). He is on a 5-game hitting streak (7-for-20; 3 HR) and all eight of his home runs have come in May (19 games)
DH Brenny Escanio1-for-5, 2 K
CF Daury Arias2-for-4, BB, K
Arias is 8-for-26 (.308) with four walks in his last seven games.
C Agustin Ramirez0-for-5, 3 K
LF Tayler Aguilar1-for-3, HR (2), RBI, RS, 2 BB, K
1B Omar Martinez0-for-4, RS, BB, 2 K
3B Jesus Rodriguez1-for-5, RS
2B Beau Brewer1-for-5
RF Alan Mejia1-for-5, 2 RBI, 2 K
His two-run single in the 8th tied the game at five. After an encouraging 2021 season in the DSL, he hasn’t been able to get much going since moving to the States.

RHP Kris Bow1.2 IP, 3 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 4 BB, 1 K
Bow is still getting his feet wet after a late start to his season.
RHP Shane Gray2.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, HR
RHP Ocean Gabonia2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K
4.73 ERA (13.1 IP, 15 H, 11 R, 7 ER, 0 HR, 9 BB, 15 K). Gabonia hasn’t allowed a home run in 34.1 professional innings.
RHP Cole Ayers: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K
3.63 ERA (17.1 IP, 15 H, 10 R, 7 ER, 5 BB, 22 K)
RHP Luis Velasquez: (L, 0-1)  1.2 IP, 0 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 2 K
Ghost runner was moved to third and scored on a sac fly.

Yankees MILB 5/5: Clayton Beeter Ks 11

News:

Nothing new to report.

Scranton (12-19) (Lost to Rochester, 4-1)

SS Wilmer Difo0-for-3, BB, 2 K, CS (2)
LF Kole Calhoun: 2-for-4, 2B (1), K
CF Elijah Dunham0-for-3, BB, 2 K
.232/.360/.347 in 114 plate appearances. He is drawing his walks but hasn’t been able to get into a consistent hitting groove (yet)
RF Franchy Cordero0-for-2, 2 BB, K
DH Ben Rortvedt0-for-4, K
2B Jamie Westbrook0-for-4
1B Billy McKinney0-for-2, RS, 2 BB, K
McKinney, brought here for veteran depth, is hitting .194/.275/.319.
C Rodolfo Duran1-for-3, 2B (7), BB
Duran continues to show off the extra-base hit power: 7 doubles and 4 home runs in 70 plate appearances (.585 SLG)
3B Jesus Bastidas1-for-4, 2B (5), RBI, 3 K

RHP Randy Vasquez: (L, 0-4)  5 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 8 K
5.97 ERA (31.2 IP, 36 H, 24 R, 21 ER, 5 HR, 19 BB, 41 K). The strikeouts are nice – the rest of it needs plenty of work. 
RHP Barrett Loseke: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K
12.1 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 HR, 7 BB, 14 K
RHP Aaron McGarity2 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 2 K, HR
17 IP, 8 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 HR, 5 BB, 23 K. Strong season so far.

Somerset (15-9) (Shut out Binghamton, 2-0)

CF Jasson Dominguez1-for-4, RS, K
Set up the big hit in the bottom of the 8th…
C Austin Wells1-for-4, HR (1), 2 RBI, RS, K
…which was a home run for Wells!  I seriously don’t think he should be here long. 
3B Tyler Hardman1-for-3, BB, K, CS (1)
It would be nice to see Hardman get it going, as he is only hitting .180 with a .344 SLG.
LF Jeisson Rosario0-for-3, K
DH Carlos Narvaez0-for-3, 2 K
RF Brandon Lockridge1-for-3, K
Lockridge’s hitting streak reaches five.
1B Eric Wagaman1-for-3, K, 2 SB (7)
Wagaman was 3-for-3 stealing bases in 2022. He is being rather frisky this season while hitting .325/.349/.525 in 43 plate appearances.
SS Max Burt0-for-3, K
2B Eduardo Torrealba0-for-2, BB

RHP Clayton Beeter 6 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 11 K
Beeter sets a new personal best for Ks in a game. He is now the owner of a 1.35 ERA in 26.2 IP (19 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 HR, 12 BB, 34 K). The Yankees seem committed to him as a rotation arm (for now) and he is rewarding them.
RHP Steven Jennings (W, 2-1): 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K
RHP Tanner Myatt (S, 3): 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K
0.79 ERA (11.1 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 6 BB, 15 K). Cheap relief help is always in demand – if the hard-throwing (but injury prone) Myatt keeps this up, teams may look at him in this winter’s Rule 5.

Hudson Valley (17-8) (Defeated Wilmington, 3-2, on a walk-off wild pitch)

CF Spencer Jones1-for-4, 2 K
.289/.327/.600 in 98 plate appearances. His K% sits at 33.7%, which needs to come down (it should) but there isn’t mich to complain about here.
DH Alexander Vargas0-for-4, 2 K
LF Aaron Palensky1-for-4, K
This drops his triple slash all the way down to .397/.478/.897 over 67 plate appearances. 
1B Spencer Henson1-for-4, HR (6), RBI, 2 RS, K, SB (1)
Henson scored on the walk-off wild pitch. I should note that he stole third base prior to that wild pitch. 
C Rafael Flores: 1-for-3, BB
RF Grant Richardson1-for-4, 2 K
3B Marcos Cabrera0-for-2, BB, K
SS Ben Cowles1-for-3, HR (5), RBI, RS, K
.233/.303/.517 in 66 plate appearances. He hit 7 home runs in 355 plate appearances last season. He is a 23-year-old infielder out of the University of Maryland.
2B Luis Santos0-for-3, 2 K

RHP Zach Messinger: 5 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 5 K
2.08 ERA (26 IP, 17 H, 7 R, 6 ER, 2 HR, 9 BB, 31 K)
RHP Juan Carela: (W, 1-1) 4 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 3 K
4.79 ERA (20.2 IP, 21 H, 13 R, 11 ER, 1 HR, 8 BB, 28 K). Carela is typically a starter – this appears to be a “piggyback” game for him.

Tampa (9-16) (Lost to Bradenton, 7-6)

CF Daury Arias1-for-3, 2B (4), RBI, K
  CF Alan Mejia0-for-1, BB
SS Jared Serna2-for-3, 2B (5), HR (2), RBI, RS, 2 BB
Serna is on a ridiculous run. He is hitting .375/.477/.528 in 86 plate appearances (5 doubles, 2 home runs, 12 RBI, 8 runs, 13 BB, 6 K, 7-for-10 SB). Sheesh – how can one have a .477 OBP and only score eight runs in 20 games? If anything tells you how much “runs” and “RBI” are team dependent, that number should.
Anyway, Serna has nine hits in his last three games and 21 hits in his last 11 games.
C Agustin Ramirez1-for-5, 2B (2), RS, K
LF Anthony Hall1-for-2, 2B (3), RS, BB, HBP
He has hit safely in five of his last six games with a pair of doubles. As a college bat, you have to expect him to eventually dominate this level.
2B Dayro Perez2-for-4, HR (1), 3 RBI, RS, K
DH Nelson Medina0-for-4
1B Omar Martinez1-for-3, HR (3), RBI, RS, BB, K
.288/.420/.500 in 81 plate appearances. He is a 21-year-old left-handed bat who hit well in the GCL last year, so he is worth monitoring.
3B Ronny Rojas0-for-4, K
