Ceddane Rafaela has been hot for quite sometime.

Another day another 2 hits for Nick Yorke. And he’s only had two at bats.

I like that Casas sees all this Yorke stuff and decides to remind everyone who is #1.

Thinking Hernández would ever have a higher AVG and OPS than Casas in September would seem crazy...
But here we are 🤷🏾♂️

I love his bat flip. Pure disdain.

He's human, just struck out with the bases loaded. Hernandez came through after him though with a 2-run double. Now 9-0.

The catcher's reaction is priceless.

Hernandez has as many doubles in his last ~70 PA as he did in his first like 210

I like that Casas sees all this Yorke stuff and decides to remind everyone who is #1. I'm going to ask a potentially stupid question, but... Do we have 3 top 50 prospects in the system right now? I'm not a homer for thinking that way, am I?

I'm not a homer for thinking that way, am I? If you want to really be optimistic about it you could say 4. Casas, Mayer, Duran, and Yorke. Several outlets have them with three, so if you’re really high on Yorke then you could make that argument.

Top 50 is way too pessimistic. I agree. The infield is going to be awesome. Casas, Yorke, and Mayer with possibly Devers at 3b (or X). And getting very intrigued by Blaze Jordan and Miguel Bleis. Curious to see if they can add to the trio.

Not top 50 likely but don't overlook Bello.
Methinks Duran will graduate, we'll see.

Portland now 2 games back in the race for the playoffs, Salem now 0.5 games up.

So I guess they changed uniforms and home/road designation for the second game?? Or is this one just a stock footage homer and you're messing with us?

They are all impressive, but I have watched the second Casas home run roughly 300 times already. The pitch is just so perfectly in his wheelhouse and the way he's able to just totally unload on it is so aesthetically pleasing.

NH is wearing home white pants in both, Portland wearing the road grays. Both teams did switch tops though.

You are definitely crazy. Top 50 is way too pessimistic. HA I was thinking that perhaps I was a bit too conservative and if Top 30 would have been more adequate. Absolutely impressive turnaround.

There's an alternate reality where they play the 2020 high school season, Yorke really is the best high school hitter in the country (as Vandy coach Tim Corbin said he was) and he goes like third in the draft and none of this seems like it's coming out of nowhere and he's easily ranked in the Top 25. That didn't happen so the lack of info leads to some necessary caution, but the only thing holding him back from being a slam dunk Top 50 is a pre-draft ranking that was based on a season that didn't happen. He went 2 for 4 tonight and his OPS fell by 25 points.
Unrelated, a shoutout to Devlin Granberg going 5 for 6 with two walks and seven runs scored hitting in front of Casas today. Hard to go under the radar with that line.
