Update: Here’s video of Montero’s homer. That’s a bomb, you can see why his power will play well in Yankee Stadium. Opposite field, baby.
Another day, another Double-A Trenton starting pitcher gets hurt. This time it’s Craig Heyer, who was placed on the disabled list with a hand issue. Apparently he took a batted ball to the hand the other day, and they’re still waiting on x-ray results. Doesn’t like anything major, so hopefully he’ll just miss a start or two, nothing more. Kevin Russo is back with Triple-A Scranton after clearing waivers, by the way.
