Brainer Bonaci currently at five walks in today's double-header. The Venezuelan god of walks.

Yorke line drive single to RF, Binelas line drive single just over the leaping shortstop, then Lugo hits an opposite field HR to RF. Lugo only had 4 HR last year

Matthew Lugo goes deep. He’s certainly feeling the pressure of Mayer’s imminent promotion.

Salem is going to be fun to watch until July 4th, when all their players go up to Greenville Their first 4 hitters in the order are all 19. That seems unusual even for a low A team. It does look like a special group. Blaze one week younger than Mayer.

Groshans just hit a ball 60% of the way up the monster and stood at the plate admiring it for a single Also

OK, couldn't stand it, I just bought the MiLB TV package. This is the most stoked I've ever been about our prospects including 2005 AT THE TIME.
Aside... The Philippines economy is booming. In the past 6 years, we've gone from 3rd world to emerging nation to lower class and this quarter will acheive middle class.
Along the way (approximations):
Wages I pay for construction workers +150% Construction materials +200% Basic food, etc +75% Private school for my children +75% Value of my vacant lot, adjacent to the house I am building +600% House & lot value (not including upgrades (+300%) including upgrades (+600%)
but...
Increase in my income (social security 9%)
Still able to hang in there but it's getting tighter.

So Fitzgerald isn’t in the lineup again. Between his insta story last night and his absence I wonder what is going on

Ceddanne Rafaela homers in the Bottom of the 7th to give Greenville a 4-3 lead.

Between his insta story last night and his absence I wonder what is going on Pure speculation, but what might have happened was that he was brought up to New York because of Xander's hammy and then found out when he got there that Xander was fine and able to play. Under that scenario, he might just go on to Worcester rather than back to Jacksonville for one game.

Rafaela hits everything in the air, doesn't strike out too much and plays good defense all over the diamond. Give him some protein shakes and he'll be in the majors.

Does Greenville not have a TV feed this year ? I didn't have MiLB last year and I knew their excellent TV guy, Ed Jensen, had passed away.
NM, it's just the boxsxore icon that doesn't work.

Nothing so over-the-top, but Portland does such a great job of this IMO. I am not sure I have ever seen winners in the lobster toss before--it's usually a nightmare/psychology experiment where two participants who can't get in sync fare worse than either of them would have solo. These guys were ON. Tiny children racing Slugger never gets old--but this one got especially fun, because... Drama! And a rookie move--he went to go back for it. But help appeared! And once he could focus on the race, victory was in hand. (I will do a post of game photos Monday or Tuesday but starter gallery is here.)

Portland and Greenville have always been great family parks.

Read into that as you will.

Wonder if he’s being held out for a disciplinary issue. Certainly seems like it

I'll just say he's not being particularly opaque about it. I don't have TikTok but even from his IG, combined with other information we have about the team, it's pretty clear what the situation is. I'll leave it for y'all to parse.

I'll leave it for y'all to parse. For those that don’t have it, he recently put a comment on TikTok “They said I was in close contact with someone that had covid even though I wasn’t. I tested negative too.” Said he has no symptoms and tested negative again today too. You’re definitely right about his transparency.
