I’m two days late on this, but Brandon Laird was named the third hottest prospects in the minors in last week’s Prospect Hot Sheet. As a reward, he was promoted to Triple-A following today’s game. Corban Joseph goes up to Double-A. Congrats to both guys, the promotions were well deserved.
Triple-A Scranton (3-1 loss to Syracuse)
Kevin Russo, 2B: 1 for 5 – Reegie Corona’s still out after the late-game collision the other day
Eric Bruntlett, SS: 0 for 5
Eduardo Nunez, 3B: 0 for 4 – with no trade for a utility infielder, he’ll again audition at the hot corner
Juan Miranda, 1B: 1 for 3, 1 BB, 1 K
Jesus Montero, C: 1 for 4, 1 K – six for his last 30 (.200)
Colin Curtis, RF & Jorge Vazquez, DH: both 0 for 3, 2 K, 1 SB – Curtis scored a run … JoVa walked

Zach McAllister: 7 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 8 K, 7-3 GB/FB – 62 of 102 pitches were strikes (60.8%) … it’s good to see the strikeouts and grounders, but this is the ninth straight start in which he’s allowed a homer

High-A Tampa‘s game was suspended due to rain. They were still scoreless in the 10th inning. I assume they’ll finish the game at some point over the next two days. Here’s the box score, Manny Banuelos only pitched an inning before of a rain delay.
