DSL Red ended up playing a 9 inning game (Blue only went 7). Astacio and Liendo with HRs. Liendo also had 3 SBs. Lira went 2-3 with 2 walks and threw out two guys.

Quite a debut for Jedixson Paez: 3IP, 1H, 0ER, 1BB, 7K Is it just me or are Dominican names getting more interesting over time? I'd be interested in knowing more about naming conventions over there.
On another completely tangential note, I hadn't realized until I came across it the other day how economically successful the DR has been in recent years. As recently as 1990 it was almost as poor as Guatemala, with a per capita GDP of $4,500 (inflation adjusted), but by 2017 it had caught up to Costa Rica ($15,000) and wasn't too far behind Mexico ($17,000).
Not that I know much about naming conventions or pronunciation but I feel like with the way J is often pronounced "Jedixson" comes out sounding more like Edison than we'd expect.

It’s like the light bulb just turned on in my head

Blaze Jordan is off to a little bit of a slow start, but a 23% K rate in a 26% K rate league is encouraging.

Kent up to Worcester.
Rangel off the DEV List and Schellenger back from the IL.
Baldwin and Meneses to the TIA as expected.

Mieses to the TIA as well. Looks like the US guys are getting one more game.
Portland at 26 tonight. Gotta think reinforcements coming tomorrow. Keep an eye for who's out of the Greenville lineup perhaps.

Greenville lineup out. All the regulars and Sogard playing except for Howlett (who I'd be stunned if he goes up) and Cottam (who I guess is a possibility, but catcher isn't where they're thin).

McCarthy starting for Worcester, but no change in probables for the next few days which makes me think he's opening for Gossett.
My guess is Saturday's TBA is going to be Kent.

Sale with a scoreless first. 1 hit, no ks He's done for the day: 2 IP, 3 K's (1 swinging, 2 looking) I've heard some really good things about this kid, don't be surprised if he moves quickly through the system.

Kevin McCarthy was one pitch away from an immaculate inning. Had the #3 batter down 0-2 but had to settle for a ground out on the 9th pitch.

My guess is Saturday's TBA is going to be Kent. He's on the mound now. I missed the promotion and turned the game on when I got home and thought, hey, wait, I know him...

Brian Van Belle is on a bit of a run. 5 of his last 7 starts have been at least 5 innings and 1 run or less. Overall over his last 7 starts he’s 34.1 IP, 11 ER, 4 BB, 35 Ks. That’s a 2.88 ERA even with the two stinkers (4 IP/5 ER and 4.1 IP/5 ER).

Tyreque Reed went 3-3 with 2 walks and hit his 14th home run. 5 RBI night in Greenville would be a great send off before going up to Portland. Cottam, Groshans, Dearden, Cannon, and Koss with multiple hits. Sogard and Brannen 0-5 sadly so not all amazing news.

Eh, I just read his draft profile. Electric stuff but a lot of scouts think his delivery and slender frame give him a reliever profile. I'll pass.

Somewhere I saw a tweet that said Sale's FB was 97.

If only there were someone who got information from a scout about Sale's outing.
