Good to see Aaron Perry coming back and being effective immediately

Granted it’s the GCL but still...it hasn’t been an easy road for him

Was sitting around 96 according to the announcer.

Mata goes scoreless in the second. Got a nice strikeout looking on a curveball, but also walked a guy. Don’t know if it’s a mechanical thing, but whenever I watch Mata he seems to miss outside a lot. The ball just seems to float off the edge. There’s a lot of movement on his pitches.

I would assume that's it for Mata.
It's remarkable that he made his first AA start look like one of his ordinary High A starts: a bunch of singles, a very acceptable number of walks, Ks numbers close to IP and an elite number of ground balls.
Add: And no homers of course.

Chatham left the the bottom half of the inning was injury-related?

It was a twisting, falling kind of grab. Looked kind of awkward.

Sitting mid-90s, touching 98 is even harder than advertised. I thought he might continue to add a little velo, but that’s really impressive. Great start to his AA career today. Love to see him keep it up and finish the year strong. System needs good news; Houck has been better lately but Darwinzon’s control remains an enigma. And Duran has gone ice-cold with zero power and a significant K bump at Portland. Mata’s establishing himself as THE guy to watch in the second half.

Yusniel Padron-Artilles: 6IP 2H 0ER 1BB 10K against a pretty solid lineup. Looks like he was pounding the strike zone too (84 pitches, 63 strikes).

My thought was maybe a move due to Mata entering the rotation.

McGrath & Dedgar spun a shutout in the nightcap.

YPA... how did I not see that. Excellent work.

"We really don't need the whole commercial break/warm-up routine every time a new reliever comes into the game. It certainly made sense in 1884 when they only switched pitchers when the starter was attacked by pickaxe or caught consumption, and no reliever was warming up because he was busy gambling and drinking." - JD

He's looking good but the question will be how long it takes to ramp up to a season's load. His career high is 77 innings.
