Nowhere to play in Portland until they move Yorke up. Campbell's K-rate is over 28%, seems to me like there's still stuff to work on down there even if he's probably ready for a new challenge. Fair, fair. I would say given that Campbell is of a more advanced age for the high A level, I’d think it would be better if he worked on his K rate @ the AA level where the adjustment would translate better in the long run. I don't think Yorke is blocking him at all. Yorke is getting time in LF and Campbell in CF. With Romero and Coffey now active there's arguably more room in Portland than Greenville for him.

How much of Romero’s ranking is his injury history? It's subjective. Every outlet puts a different value on player injuries, wondering how they will recover. Romero got dropped in most rankings by quite a bit. Keith Law is maybe the most forgiving on player injuries keeping Romero in his Red Sox top 10 and not budging on Mayer when he was hurt last year. Injury history and the reports we've gotten on him over the past couple years haven't been great either. 1st-round pedigree is only worth so much. He could certainly move back up, and I do think we're going to see a decent amount of shuffling of the rankings in the teens and 20s next month but I'm very comfortable with his ranking.

Not a good start for Wikelman. He had a run of 3 good outings April 21- May 4 but has been pretty bad the rest of the season

I had not realized Coffey was so young. Feels like he’s been in the system for a while and been hurt the whole time, but he just turned 20 this week - still plenty of time to put it all together.

With news of the Perales promotion, as I tweeted, my guess is Monegro takes his rotation spot on 6/2, and I would not be surprised if Penrod goes up to Worcester. Didn't tweet this but Bastardo lines up on that schedule as well so non-zero chance it's him, as he's been nasty lately from what I've heard. Penrod would make more sense though.

None of those home runs looked like they were going out off the bat to me. Is it just me? Coffey and Castro ones were certainly stung, but I just didn't think they were going out

I thought they were going to be doubles for Coffey and Romero on contact
I thought Castro obliterated his ball, it was just a matter of how high off the ground it got and how much he hooked it
