Marcus Wilson currently leads the AAA East with 27 walks. I don't see him on the Sox with Duran and Franchy currently ahead but he could be serviceable in the short term or valuable trade bait. I watched him for a couple of at bats the last televised game and was very impressed with his patience...He's not antsy or jumpy and takes close pitches with aplam.

Howlett now leads High-A East in OPS if you remove all the players two+ years older than him.

Howlett with a HR off Priester. Would put money on Howlett taking the biggest jump on next months rankings.

Matthew Lugo has reached base five times tonight (3 singles and 2 walks). He’s only 20 years old but has really struggled to hit for power so far. He only has 4 XBH on the year (2 2B, 1 3B, and 1 HR) but hasn’t hit an XBH since May 25th.

I think tonight is the first time YPA didn't follow BVB, so Greenville might be about to start having some skips.

While Lopez has struggled mightily after his first game, 9Ks in 15 ABs, he also has 4 walks. This hints that maybe he is getting deep into counts, with results of Ks and Walks. At least that's my hope as he struggles his first week in A ball.

At least that's my hope as he struggles his first week in A ball. When I see a young guy with lots of K's and lots of walks, I actually take that as the player being pretty overmatched and he's taking a lot of pitches because he knows he can't do anything with them. In the low minors especially, you're going to face pitchers who will gift you walks if you can at least fight off pitches in the zone. Not a reason to get concerned in a 4-game sample - remember, this is his first game action since 2019 - but to me, that's typically a bad combination that I want to see change, rather than a good one. As always, it isn't 100% true all the time and would best be confirmed with eyes on the player.
