Two quick notes:
- RHP Ronald Herrera, who came over in the Jose Pirela trade, has been promoted from Double-A Trenton to Triple-A Scranton, per Shane Hennigan. The RailRiders were playing one man short, so now the roster is full. Seems like Herrera was brought up on a temporary basis with LHP Tyler Olson in the show and RHP Luis Cessa on his way down. RHP Eric Ruth went from High-A Tampa to Trenton to replace Herrera, says Matt Kardos.
- SS Jorge Mateo ranked eighth in this week’s Prospect Hot Sheet. “Thus far he has notched two doubles, two triples and four stolen bases in the pitcher-friendly Florida State League. With a good first half, Mateo should make his way to Double-A Trenton shortly after his 21st birthday,” said the write-up. Mateo’s birthday in June 23rd, since I know you’re wondering.
