Walter was very impressive. He made one mistake pitch, but he was as good as I’ve seen from him so far. Called strikes, swinging strikes, lots of weak contact, uncomfortable at bats. He’s bounced back very well from his minor slump. There’s not much left in AA for him to prove, I think.

I’ve admittedly only been half watching the game, but Liu has been sitting 88-90 with the fastball according to the broadcast.

Worcester lineup tweet has Keller getting the start, not Bello. But a separate tweet has Bello. Probably just a mistake to not include Bello in the lineup tweet, but something to keep an eye on.
Also to monitor, Downs did not play on Sunday and he’s not in the lineup tonight either. He was removed from Saturday’s game with side discomfort, so hopefully this doesn’t linger too long.

Groome now has a sub 3.00 ERA across 50+ innings in AA. If he keeps up this quality of results, he could see a late season promotion to Worcester.

Casas could return as soon as this weekend. Team is understandably not pushing him.
Mayer got good news on his wrist and is expected to start baseball activities again soon.
Seabold will likely miss one more start.

Franchy just single-handedly won the Benintendi trade with one swing of the bat.

Marcelo Mayer not in the lineup again for Salem. He has appeared in four games since April 23rd.

Benches cleared in the Worcester game. Downs got pulled from the game for a pinch hitter but wasn’t ejected.

Pedro Castellanos in April: .116/.171/.217/.389 with 4 XBHs. 25% K-rate and .143 BABIP.
Pedro Castellanos in May: .296/.316/.556/.871 with 8 XBHs. The triple slash line will look a bit better after today as he’s 2-3 with 2 doubles so far. 25% K-rate and .333 BABIP:

Bazardo has one of the lowest swinging strike rates in the system, he got none tonight. 241 pit, 24 whiffs Is there any thought on why that is? His curve has always been graded as really good. Has that regressed?

He’s been a bit of a forgotten man since his DFA but Eduard Bazardo has gone 10.2 IP, 8 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 11 Ks since a rough outing in April.

Casas out of the lineup after being pulled for precautionary reasons with a rolled ankle. Nothing to worry about, but something to keep an eye on.
Also hopefully just a day off but Mayer is out of the lineup again.

So Rafaela hit for the cycle. That’s cool. 8th home run on the year.
Big slugfest tonight in Greenville. Binelas, McDonough, and Big Joe also homered. Lugo had a bases clearing double and Yorke had two hits out of the leadoff spot. Fun lineup.

Another really solid outing by Chris Murphy.
5 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 Ks.
What’s even more impressive is the three hits and run came in the first four batters. After that, Murphy settled in to retire 14 of the next fifteen, including the last 12 in a row. To get even more more impressive, of those 14 outs that he recorded after the first four batters, only one out left the infield.

Mayer doubled three times in his return tonight. Bonaci reached base five times total.
It’s not necessary, but I wonder if there will be some movement in the Portland rotation. They already have a set five man rotation so they can either put Hart in the bullpen as a piggy back guy or use him to give guys a rest through the rotation. If they wanna move someone up, there are some options there too.
