RHP Caleb Cotham was promoted to Triple-A Scranton according to Josh Norris. They were an arm short after losing Preston Claiborne to the big league team.
Triple-A Scranton Game One (5-1 win over Gwinnett) make up of yesterday’s rainout
- 2B Corban Joseph: 1-3, 2 R, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 E (fielding)
- 3B David Adams: 1-3, 1 R, 1 3B, 2 RBI, 1 HBP
- LF Zoilo Almonte: 2-4, 1 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 K
- RF Ronnie Mustelier: 1-4, 1 K — after three games at the hot corner, he shifts to right to accommodate CoJo and Adams
- CF Melky Mesa: 1-4, 2 K
- RHP Dellin Betances: 5 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 4 BB, 3 K, 1 HB, 7/2 GB/FB — 49 of 90 pitches were strikes (54%) … that might be the most Dellin Betances line ever, hints at dominance with lingering strike-throwing problems
- RHP Sam Demel: 2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 3/0 GB/FB — 18 of 33 pitches were strikes (55%) … blew the no-hitter with two outs in the seventh
Triple-A Scranton Game Two (2-1 win over Gwinnett)
- 2B Corban Joseph & 3B David Adams: both 1-3, 1 BB
- LF Zoilo Almonte: 1-4, 1 K
- RF Ronnie Mustelier: 1-2, 2 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 SB — Ben Francisco’s days have to be numbered
- CF Melky Mesa: 1-3, 1 2B, 2 K
- RHP Chris Bootcheck: 6 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 3 K, 7/5 GB/FB — 60 of 91 pitches were strikes (66%) … doubles his season earned run total with this start, he’s been outrageously good so far
Double-A Trenton (5-1 loss to loss Richmond)
- LF Ramon Flores: 0-4 — seven hits in his last 37 at-bats (.189)
- DH Tyler Austin: 2-4, 1 3B, 1 RBI, 1 K
- CF Slade Heathcott: 1-4, 3 K — eight hits in his last 35 at-bats (.229)
- RHP Caleb Cotham: 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 3/2 GB/FB — 19 of 35 pitches were strikes (55%) … the promotion came after the game, which is why he was pulled early
- LHP Jeremy Bleich: 2.2 IP, 6 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 2 BB, 1 K, 6/0 GB/FB — 28 of 51 pitches were strikes (55%)
- RHP Danny Burawa: 1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 1 WP, 1/0 GB/FB — 15 of 24 pitches were strikes (63%)
- RHP Tommy Kahnle: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 2/1 GB/FB — 20 of 33 pitches were strikes (61%)
High-A Tampa (8-2 win over Fort Myers)
- CF Mason Williams: 1-5, 3 K
- LF Ben Gamel: 1-5, 2 RBI, 2 K
- 2B Rob Refsnyder: 2-5, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 SB, 1 E (throwing) — I have to think he’ll get bumped up to Trenton as soon as Angelo Gumbs comes off the DL … no idea when that will happen, but apparently he’s nursing a wrist injury
- C Gary Sanchez: 2-4, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 RB, 1 BB — second straight two-hit game after an ugly 3-for-27 stretch (.111)
- RHP Scottie Allen: 6 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 5 K, 1 WP, 4/6 GB/FB
Low-A Charleston (5-2 loss to Delmarva)
- LF Jake Cave: 2-5, 1 SB — had been in a 3-for-20 slump (.150)
- SS Cito Culver: 0-3 — left the game for an unknown reason in the fifth
- 1B Greg Bird & 3B Dante Bichette Jr.: both 0-4 — Greg committed a fielding error
- C Peter O’Brien: 3-4, 1 R
