Triple-A Scranton (4-2 win over Syracuse)
CF-LF Kevin Russo & DH Jack Cust: both 1-4 — Cust drove in a run and struck out
2B Corban Joseph, RF Cole Garner & C Gus Molina: all 1-4, 1 R — CoJo doubled and committed a fielding error … Molina homered, drove in three, and struck out
LF Ronnie Mustelier: 0-2 — left the game after grounding out in the third
CF Chris Dickerson: 1-2 — replaced Mustelier
1B Brandon Laird: 2-4, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 K — not sure where Russell Branyan has been
SS Ramiro Pena: 1-4, 1 K
3B Doug Bernier: 1-3
RHP John Maine: 6 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 4 K, 3/5 GB/FB — 64 of 99 pitches were strikes
RHP Cory Wade: 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 4/2 GB/FB — 22 of 28 pitches were strikes (79%) … we won’t have any idea if he’s righted the ship until he actually gets back in the bigs, but zeroes down here are better than something else

Double-A Trenton (3-1 win over New Britain)

SS Addison Maruszak: 2-3, 1 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K — 15 hits in his last 38 at-bats (.395) with four homers and three doubles

RHP Brett Marshall: 5.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 6 K, 1 WP, 4/3 GB/FB — 54 of 82 pitches were strikes (66%) … great outing, I just wish they’d let these guys empty the tank and get up to 100 pitches or so
LHP Lee Hyde: 0.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 0 K, 0/1 GB/FB — nine pitches, four strikes

CF Ben Gamel: 4-5, 3 R, 1 2B, 1 SB — 14 hits in his last 46 at-bats (.304) with four doubles, a triple, and a homer … he’s really stepped up and grabbed the spotlight following the recent promotions

1B Casey Stevenson: 1-5, 1 R, 1 3B, 3 RBI, 1 K, 1 SB
3B Dante Bichette Jr.: 2-4, 2 R, 1 2B — three doubles and a homer in his last eight games, so hopefully the power is starting to come out
DH Francisco Arcia: 2-4, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 3 RBI — first real huge game since the promotions
RHP Bryan Mitchell: 4 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 4 BB, 4 K, 2/4 GB/FB — 53 of 91 pitches were strikes (58%) … bad Bryan showed up today
RHP Phil Wetherell: 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 1 HB, 1/0 GB/FB — 22 of 29 pitches were strikes (76%)
RHP Pedro Guerra: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K, 1/3 GB/FB — 13 of 21 pitches were strikes (52%) … no strikeouts? lame
RHP John Brebbia: 1 IP, zeroes, 2/1 GB/FB — eleven pitches, eight strikes

RF Exicardo Cayones: 0-4, 2 BB — 15 walks and 12 strikeouts in 17 games … he’s been a pleasant surprise, I thought he would be a total zero after they got him in the A.J. Burnett trade
DH Saxon Butler: 2-4, 3 R, 2 2B, 1 BB, 1 K — nine hits in his last 24 at-bats (.375) with five doubles and two homers
