As currently stands, the minor league rotation of Seabold/Sale/Crawford/Houck/Bello may outperform the MLB one of Eovaldi/ERod/Pivetta/RIchards/Perez right now.

Perez got moved to the Pen it’s Eovaldi E-Rod Pivetta Houck Richards and that Sale will be back Saturday meaning Richards is probably gone. That comment is ridiculous coming after a double header where our starters shined and our offense is continuing to look lost.

deleted, because #internet
But Houck is not on the major league roster, which was the cruz of the point.

Portland getting no-hit. Looks like Jose did not appreciate being the Butto your joke.
Bello also dealing though, 10K through 5. He could start 2022 on the 40 man, nice to see a international kid moving up with that timeline... it can be tough given how young/far away some are.

Not being no-hit now, but still losing 1-0.
Worcester tied 2-2, although they also have only 1 hit - a 2-run Deshields HR. Kutter gave up up 2 runs on 8 hits through 5 innings. Too many hits, but also had 7K's and no BB's. Nice peripherals. Andriese now in for a rehab appearance.

Bello being pulled after 5.1 innings with 11 Ks. Gave up 2 runs and is still responsible for the runners on first and second. It was a very hard hit ball but Williams missed a potential double play ball that would have gotten Bello out of the 6th. We’ll see if that comes back to bite him.

Another good start from Brandon Walter: 5IP, 1H, 0ER, 2BB, 5K.

My mistake, they both stole 11 bases (Gilberto caught 5, Nick caught 7). It's more about GJ lack of base running skills than Yorke's wheels really.

It's more about GJ lack of base running skills than Yorke's wheels really. Note that in Low-A they are testing the two-pickoffs-per-plate appearance rule. As a result, steals were up dramatically in the league in the early going at least: www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/thanks-to-mlbs-experimental-rule-changes-stolen-bases-in-the-minor-leagues-are-way-upTough to tell how it's affecting this team especially - Jimenez and Rafaela are burners and Lugo is fast. I have a feeling Yorke's steals are more of the Garin Cecchini variety (he stole 51 in Low-A in 2015 despite average speed - combined with great baseball instincts - and never again had more than 15). That said, it's of course not a bad thing that he has them. I just wouldn't read too much into it yet.

Is it time to promote yorke, Davis and granberg! Maybe, no, and no. Could see Yorke going up, but Davis has been in Greenville for all of 17 games, Granberg in Portland for all of 41. What, precisely, is the rush?
