Mikolas & Estrada homer in GCL Yanks win

Congrats to OF Melky Mesa, whose huge week earned him Triple-A International League Offensive Player of the Week honors.

Triple-A Scranton, Double-A Trenton, Low-A Charleston, and Short Season Staten Island all had scheduled off-days. Weird. The SI Yanks are off until Wednesday for the All-Star break. The actual game will be played tomorrow.
