DotF: Sensley homers again in Charleston’s win

Got some roster notes to pass along:

• RHP Dillon Tate has been promoted from High-A Tampa to Double-A Trenton, the team announced. He has a 2.62 ERA (3.64 FIP) with 19.3% strikeouts and 6.3% walks in nine starts and 58.1 innings since coming back from a shoulder issue. Tate came over from the Rangers in the Carlos Beltran trade after being the fourth overall pick in the 2015 draft.
• RHP Jonathan Holder has been placed on the Triple-A Scranton disabled list, the team announced. That’s not good. The Yankees really beefed up their bullpen at the trade deadline, but losing pitching depth is never a good thing. Hopefully it’s minor and Holder will be back quickly.
• OF Carlos Vidal was placed on the Low-A Charleston disabled list, the team announced. Not sure what’s wrong with him, but he left yesterday’s game after a single and running the bases. Vidal’s had a bunch of injury problems over the years. OF Dom Thompson-Williams was bumped up from Short Season Staten Island to take Vidal’s roster spot.
• The Short Season NY-Penn League All-Star Game rosters were announced (North and South) and no Staten Island Yankees made it. Huh. Can’t remember the last that happened. Staten Island has been in first place pretty much all year too. Chances are someone will go to the All-Star Game as an injury/promotion replacement, so whatever.

• CF Evan Alexander: 0-4, 1 R, 2 K
• 2B Eduardo Torrealba: 3-3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 HBP, 1 SB — the Red Sox signed the 18-year-old two years ago, but MLB voided the deal because Boston was cutting deals under the table to skirt the bonus pools

• RHP Luis Medina: 2.1 IP, 1 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 3 BB, 3 K, 2 WP, 4/1 GB/FB — only 29 of 61 pitches were strikes (48%) … one hit and six runs? not even mad, I’m impressed

• RHP Yancarlos Baez: 5 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, 6/1 GB/FB

Rookie GCL Yanks West (13-5 loss to GCL Tigers East)
