Edwin Brito with his 6th HR of the year, which is second most in the DSL. He's been better in July - coming into today he's slashing .333/.382/.667 in July.
ADD: after today he is slashing .353/.395/.735 in July.

Arias was 1/4 with a double in game one.
He's currently 3/3 with a BB, double and 2 SB in game 2. Season OPS is currently sitting at .970.

Make that 4/4. .976.
edit: Also is Yander related to Brainer? Both from Venezuela.

ADD: after today he is slashing .353/.395/.735 in July. After a rough first 59 PA, in which he slashed .125/.288/.208 (with a .179 BABIP, and a K% of 32.2%, along with a BB% of 8.5%), he’s been on a bit of a tear. In the last 58 PA he’s delivered to a line of .313/.414/.667, including the last seven games (29 PA), as he’s put up .400/.448/.920. Over those 58 PA, his K% has dropped almost by half (17.2%) and his BB% has improved by ~50% (12.1%). Notably, over this stretch his BABIP isn’t crazy high (.354), so it’s not luck driven. This is all SSS of course, but he’s already at 6 HRs this season, a feat that took Cespedes 62 more PA to reach in his DSL season last year. Brito’s K% isn’t in the same ballpark as Cespedes’ was (even his 17.2% mark that excludes his brutal start pales in comparison to Yoeilin’s full season mark of 11.5%), suggesting more swing and miss in the zone, but his walk rate is significantly better (10.3% vs 6.7%, and a more impressive 12.1% mark over the same 58 PA sample). With the brutal starts of this year’s two biggest bonus babies, early returns on Brito are at least somewhat encouraging. Combined with Reyes’ to-date performance and respectable starts by Fermin and Gonzales, this year’s crop has some players to hope on, even if the big signees go the way of DeLeon, Flores (Antoni), and Diaz, though there’s still time for Asencio and Carrasquel.

The point has been made on this board before that DSL walk numbers are sometimes not necessarily indicative of much of anything just considering how young and development oriented the league is.

I do feel obliged to point out that both FCL games today were finished by non-pitchers for the Orioles (not that that's when most of the damage was done).
