DotF: Florial goes deep again in Charleston’s win

Lots of Yankees made this week’s Prospect Hot Sheet: 2B Nick Solak (3rd), RHP Chance Adams (9th), OF Dustin Fowler (11th), and 3B Miguel Andujar (17th). Solak is hitting .310/.417/.448 (155 wRC+) with nearly as many walks (38) as strikeouts (43) overall. Gotta think a promotion to Double-A Trenton is coming soon. High-A isn’t much of a challenge for a guy who was a three-year starter at Louisville.

Triple-A Scranton (9-2 win over Pawtucket)

• 3B Tyler Wade: 1-3, 2 R, 1 RBI, 2 BB, 3 SB, 1 E (throwing) — tenth game at third base this season … 23-for-27 (85%) in steal attempts

• LHP Caleb Smith: 6 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 6 K, 6/3 GB/FB — 64 of 98 pitches were strikes (65%) … 77/21 K/BB in 78.2 innings for the Rule 5 Draft pick … he was in camp with the Cubs this year but couldn’t stick

Low-A Charleston (4-3 win over Greenville)

• 2B Hoy Jun Park: 2-5, 1 3B, 1 RBI, 1 K, 1 SB
• RF Blake Rutherford & LF Isiah Gilliam: both 0-4, 1 K — Gilliam committed a fielding error
• CF Estevan Florial: 2-3, 2 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K, 2 E (throwing, fielding) — three homers in his last eleven games now

• C Saul Torres: 0-3, 1 R, 1 K, 2 PB
• LF Brayan Emery: 2-4, 1 R, 1 3B, 4 RBI, 2 K, 1 E (fielding)

Both Rookie GCL Yanks affiliates begin play Monday. The rosters aren’t out yet. Probably won’t be until Monday morning. That’s how it usually works way down here.
