Remember to Vote for Joba! The poll comes down whenever I wake up tomorrow.
Triple-A Scranton was rained out; they’ll make it up as part of an August 9th doubleheader. I was really looking forward to the scheduled Jon Lester-Chase Wright pitching matchup, but of course the weather interfered. Story of my life.
Double-A Trenton is currently in a rain delay. The Thunder were leading the…uhhh…team from Altoona 5-4 in the middle of the 8th when the rains came. I’m not going to wait around for the game to finish, so here’s what the boys did up to that point:
Brett Gardner: 1 for 4, 1 R, 1 K, 1 SB – BA went from .213 to .310 since he returned from his broken hand injury just under a month ago
Alberto Gonzalez: 0 for 4, 1 R, 2 E (throwing, fielding)
Cody Ehlers: 1 for 3, 1 BB, 1 K
Juan Miranda: 3 for 4, 1 2B, 2 RBI- 10 for his last 21 with 5 XBH… now if they only let him play first
Matt Carson & Colin Curtis: both 1 for 4, 1 R, 1 K – Curtis swiped a bag
Jeff Marquez: 6 IP, 7 H, 4 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, 10-5 GB/FB, 1 E (pickoff)Â – file this under “completely uninteresting Jeff Marquez starts,” just like the rest of ’em
High-A Tampa
Game 1 (5-2 win over Sarasota) this was the continuation of yesterday’s game, which was suspended due to rain
Austin Jackson: 1 for 2, 2 R, 1 3B, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 HBPÂ – he’s a got a great Roll Call name
Jose Tabata: 1 for 4, 1 R, 1 K – he’s got a great Bob Sheppard name
Edwar Gonzalez: 2 for 4, 2 R, 2 2B, 3 RBI – 2 doubles, a triple, a homer and 9 RBIs in his last 2 games
Marcos Vechionacci: 3 for 4, 1 R, 1 K – 11 hits in his last 7 games

Eric Wordekemper: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K – 12 of his 21 saves have come with a 1-run lead
Game 2 (3-1 loss to Sarasota in 7 innings)

rest of lineup: combined 0 for 16, 1 BB, 3 K, 2 E, 1 CS

Zach Kroenke: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K – back in Tampa after a 9.42 ERA & 2.30 WHIPÂ with Trenton
Low-A Charleston (8-7 loss to Columbus)
Eduardo Nunez: 0 for 4, 1 R, 1 BB – someone must have kidnapped the guy that hit .313 with Staten Island in 2005, cause this ain’t him
Seth Fortenberry: 1 for 4, 1 R, 1 2B, 2 RBI, 2 K – first XBH in 9 games
Joe Muich: 2 for 4, 1 R, 1 RBI

John Axford: 2 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 3 K, 4-0 GB/FB
Rookie GCL Yanks were washed out; dunno when they’ll make it up.
Milb.com recently added box scores and players stats for the Domican Summer League to their already ridiculously informative site. I’m not going to update those games in Dotf (waaaaay too much work), but you can find the DSL Yanks1 team page here, and the DSL Yanks2 team page here. Yes, the Yanks have 2 teams in the DSL, but most of the prospects worth mentioning (Carlos Urena, Jose Pirela & Jahdiel Santamaria most notably) are with the DSL1 squad.
