River Ave. Blues ยป Flores, Sanchez go deep again in Charleston loss

Flores, Sanchez go deep again in Charleston loss

Posada told Yankees he wanted out
Soriano's elbow still barking, going to see doctor tomorrow

Jess Todd’s tenure in the Yankees’ organization is over, he was claimed off waivers by St. Louis today. He was designated for assignment last week to make room on the roster for Amaury Sanit. Thanks for the 1.2 innings and 21 pitches, Jess.

Meanwhile, Kevin Goldstein wrote about Jesus Montero today (no BP subs. req’d), and basically said that calling him now would be the wrong move because there would be too much pressure on him to immediately produce. I agree to a certain extent, but the kid could come up in the middle of September with the Yankees twenty games up in the division and the pressure will still be there. At some point you just have to close your eyes and jump in, otherwise they’ll be waiting forever to call him up.

Triple-A Scranton was rained out. I’m not sure when they’re going to make this game up, but they don’t go back to Pawtucket until the second-to-last series of the year in September.

Double-A Trenton had a scheduled off day.

High-A Tampa (8-4 win over Palm Beach)
Abe Almonte, CF: 3 for 5, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 K – seven for his last 12 (.583) with two doubles
Walt Ibarra, SS: 2 for 5, 1 2B, 1 K
Rob Lyerly, 3B: 2 for 4, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 E (fielding) – 12 for his last 21 (.571)
Luke Murton, DH & Neil Medchill, LF: both 1 for 4 – Murton drove in two … Medchill doubled, walked, and struck out
Kyle Higashioka, C: 0 for 4, 1 BB, 1 PB, 1 E (throwing)
Taylor Grote, RF: 0 for 5, 4 K – oof … at least he threw a runner out at the plate
Kelvin Castro, 2B: 4 for 4, 3 R, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 SB – got picked off first … great day, he’s quietly having
Kevin Mahoney, 1B: 4 for 5, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 3 RBI
Josh Romanski, LHP: 7 IP, 5 H, 4 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 3 K, 1 WP, 8-7 GB/FB – hooray for pitching deep into the game
Chase Whitley, RHP: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 1 K, 1 WP, 1-3 GB/FB

Low-A Charleston (8-4 loss to Greenville)
Eduardo Sosa, CF: 1 for 5, 1 2B, 1 RBI – rumor has it that Slade Heathcott got a five-game suspension for the brawl, and this is the third game he’s served
Ramon Flores, LF: 1 for 5, 1 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 2 K – threw a runner out at third … that’s three straight games with a jack, and he hit it off a brand name too
J.R. Murphy, C: 2 for 4, 1 R, 1 K, 1 E (catcher’s interference) – just his 19 K in 147 AB (12.9%)
Rob Segedin, 3B: 1 for 4, 1 2B
Kyle Roller, 1B: 0 for 4, 1 K
Gary Sanchez, DH: 1 for 3, 2 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 BB – second straight game with a homer, third jack in four games … seven for his last 17 (.412) with three doubles and three homers
Kelvin DeLeon, RF: 0 for 2, 2 BB, 1 K
Garrison Lassiter, SS: 1 for 4
Anderson Feliz, 2B: 0 for 4, 2 K
Jose Ramirez, RHP: 4 IP, 4 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 5 BB, 5 K, 1 WP, 2-3 GB/FB – just a brutal year so far
Michael Recchia, RHP: 2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 0 K, 1 WP, 1 Balk, 2-1 GB/FB – 6 BB, 4 K in 10 IP
Manny Barreda, RHP: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 1 HB, 1-1 GB/FB
