Reviewing the Sickels Mock Draft
The glorious return to .500

Elijah Dukes knocked another chick up. This’ll be his 6th kid with 5 different baby mommas. Hey Elijah, did you ever hear of abstinence? I’m pretty sure it’s something new that you wear…

Triple-A Scranton (2-1 win over Durham)
Kevin Thompson: 0 for 1, 1 R, 3 BB – 9 walks a 1 K in his last 17 plate appearances
Andy Phillips: 1 for 4, 1 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 K
Shelley Duncan: 2 for 3, 1 2B, 1 RBI
rest of lineup: combined 1 for 13, 1 K – Raul Chavez singled, Bronson Sardinha K’ed
Run-Elvis: 6 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 6 K
Steven Jackson: 1.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K – probably woulda gone longer if it wasn’t for a 2 hour rain delay
Edwar Ramirez: 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K – you heard it here first, they’ll bring him up in late August, and he’ll pull a K-Rod for the Yanks…

Double-A Trenton
Game 1 (3-1 win over Connecticut in 7 innings) makeup for April 25th rainout
Brett Gardner: 2 for 3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 BB, 1 SB
Ramiro Pena: 0 for 4, 4 K – ouch
Cody Ehlers: 0 for 2, 1 BB
Noah Hall: 1 for 2, 2 RBI
Matt Carson: 1 for 2, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 BB – first time in 9 games he didn’t K
Jeff Marquez: 7 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 6 K, 8-7 GB/FB
Game 2 (2-0 win over Connecticut in 7 innings)
Brett Gardner: 1 for 3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 K – 10 for 21 with 4 doubles (!) since coming off the DL
Ramiro Pena: 3 for 3 – man, talk about a day-night doubleheader…
Cody Ehlers: 1 for 3, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 K
Joba Chamberlain: 5 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 9 K, 4-2 GB/FB – awesome, simply awesome
Jeff Kennard: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K

High-A Tampa (6-5 win over Dunedin in 10 innings, walk-off style)
Reegie Corona: 2 for 5, 2 RBI, 1 BB – breakout from 1 for 16 slump
Colin Curtis: 3 for 6, 1 R
Jose Tabata: 1 for 6, 1 2B, 1 K
Juan Miranda: 1 for 3, 1 R, 3 BB (1 intentional), 1 K – can’t blame’em for not pitching to him
Edwar Gonzalez: 2 for 6, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI – walk-off single
Marcos freakin’ Vechionacci: 4 for 5, 2 R, 3 2B, 1 3B, 1 RBI – last 6 hits have gone for extras (5 doubles and a triple)

Kevin Whelan: 2 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 3 K, 1 WP – whoa whoa whoa … starting? in Tampa??? he wasn’t pitching all that bad, this is a move I don’t understand or agree with…
Josh Schmidt: 3 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 K
Mike Martinez: 2.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, 5-1 GB/FB

Low-A Charleston (5-2 win over Savannah)
Mitch Hilligoss: 1 for 3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 BB – 8 game hitting streak since he took the 0-fer to end his 38 gamer…
Austin Jackson: 0 for 4, 1 K
Chris Malec: 0 for 2, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 K – how about 40 walks against 26 strikeouts this year…
Seth Fortenberry: 2 for 4, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 K – this is the one of the last guys I’d expect to lead the Yanks’ minors in RBI in mid-June
Brian Aragon: 1 for 3, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 K, 1 HBP – threw runners out at second and home…
Eduardo Nunez: 2 for 4, 1 2B – up to 5 XBH on the year…

Mike Dunn: 3 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 7 K
Ferdin Tejeda: 2 IP, zeroes across the board
