RHP Corey Black has been placed on the High-A Tampa DL for an unknown reason. RHP Diego Moreno, who came over in the A.J. Burnett trade and missed last year due to Tommy John surgery, took his spot on the roster. Meanwhile, RHP Chien-Ming Wang was named the Triple-A International League Pitcher of the Week.
Triple-A Scranton (15-2 beatdown by Durham)

- RHP Kelvin Perez: 1.1 IP, 7 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 2 BB, 0 K, 2/1 GB/FB — 26 of 48 pitches were strikes (54%) … this should be his last spot start with LHP Vidal Nuno and RHP Ivan Nova being sent down
- RHP Chase Whitley: 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K, 2/0 GB/FB — 11 of 20 pitches were strikes

High-A Tampa (6-4 win over Palm Beach)

- DH Angelo Gumbs: 2-5, 2 2B, 2 RBI — 23-for-79 (.291) since coming off the DL
- LF Ben Gamel: 0-3, 1 K
- 2B Rob Refsnyder: 1-3, 3 R, 1 BB
- RHP Bryan Mitchell: 6 IP, 8 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, 2 WP, 7/6 GB/FB
- RHP Diego Moreno: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 0 K, 0/2 GB/FB — first game since the trade … he’ll be 27 next month and he throws really hard, but there’s not much to be excited about otherwise
Both Double-A Trenton and Low-A Charleston had scheduled off-days.
