Got a bunch of notes to pass along:
- Several minor promotions, per team announcements: OF Jeff Hendrix, RHP Andrew Schwaab, and RHP Jose Mesa Jr. have been bumped up from Low-A Charleston to High-A Tampa while RHP Anyelo Gomez, RHP Eduardo Rivera, and RHP Greg Weissert all go from various rookie ball clubs to Low-A Charleston.
- Both RHP Brady Lail and RHP Matt Wotherspoon were demoted from Triple-A Scranton to Double-A Trenton, reports Shane Hennigan. Also, RHP Angel Rincon, RHP Joey Maher, LHP Jonny Drozd, and RHP Manolo Reyes were all released, the affiliates announced.
- Carlos Beltran called SS Jorge Mateo soon after Mateo was suspended for violating team policy, writes Dan Martin. “I said, ‘You know what you did wrong and it’s up to you to fix it.’ Now, how do you fix it? You show them. You play hard. Get there early. Do your best and run balls out. Be a leader. That’s how you show the organization you’ll go the extra mile,” said Beltran.
