Manny Banuelos was named the ninth hottest prospect in the minors in the final Prospect Hot Sheet of the season. Dante Bichette Jr. got some love in the In The Team Photo section. Meanwhile, both P.J. Pilittere and Eric Wordekemper were activated off the phantom DL to fill some of the roster spots at Triple-A Scranton that have been vacated by various call-ups.
Triple-A Scranton (4-3 loss to Pawtucket) even if they’d won, they still would have been eliminated from the wildcard race because Lehigh Valley won their game … no Triple-A playoffs this year, sadly
