Sunday Open Thread
Bullpen slams the door; Yankees beat the Mariners 4-3 to snap four-game losing skid

Triple-A Scranton (2-1 win over Syracuse)

  • LF Ben Gamel, DH Slade Heathcott & C Gary Sanchez: all 0-3, 1 K — Gamel drew a walk
  • RF Aaron Judge: 1-3, 1 R, 1 RBI — can you quietly hit .342/.366/.500? because he’s doing it
  • 3B Rob Refsnyder: 1-4, 1 RBI, 1 K, 1 SB — Shane Hennigan says he made a highlight real play in the field, diving to make a backhand stop before throwing over to first
  • RHP Chad Green: 6 IP, 6 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 5 K, 6/3 GB/FB — 61 of 93 pitches were strikes (66%)
  • RHP Luis Cessa: 1.2 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 2 K, 1/1 GB/FB — 24 of 41 pitches were strikes (59%) … second appearance of the season overall and his first in Triple-A
  • RHP Nick Goody: 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 1 WP, 0/1 GB/FB — nine of 13 pitches were strikes (69%)

Double-A Trenton (9-2 win over New Hampshire)

  • SS Tyler Wade: 2-4, 3 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 SB — first homer of the season … he came into the game with four home runs in 1,361 career plate appearances, so power is not his thing … he’s hitting .324/.429/.457 on the young season
  • CF Jake Cave: 1-5, 1 R, 1 CS
  • 1B Tyler Austin: 3-4, 1 R, 2 2B, 2 RBI — second straight multi-hit game
  • RF Jared Mitchell: 2-5, 1 R, 1 3B, 1 RBI, 2 K — the Yankees signed the former 23rd overall pick (2009) as a minor league free agent over the winter
  • LHP Jordan Montgomery: 6 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, 4/5 GB/FB — 52 of 87 pitches were strikes (60%), plus he picked a runner off first … much better than his first start
  • LHP Caleb Smith: 3 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, 1 WP, 2/1 GB/FB — 32 of 46 pitches were strikes (70%)

High-A Tampa (4-1 loss to Charlotte)

  • SS Jorge Mateo: 1-4, 2 K, 1 CS, 1 E (throwing) — not his best day
  • LF Mark Payton, 3B Miguel Andujar & RF Austin Aune: all 0-4 — Andujar struck out once, Aune twice
  • 1B Mike Ford: 1-2, 1 K — left the game after he struck out looking in the fourth inning, though the box score does not say he was ejected, so I’m not sure what happened
  • 2B Abi Avelino: 1-2, 1 R, 1 2B
  • RHP Jose Campos: 6.1 IP, 5 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, 1 Balk, 1 HB, 9/3 GB/FB, 1 E (fielding) — best outing of the season so far

Low-A Charleston (2-1 win over Augusta) SS Kyle Holder did not play for the second straight day, so he must be banged up … he dealt with a nagging thumb injury last season

  • SS Hoy Jun Park: 2-4, 1 R, 2 K — 11-for-34 (.324) during his seven-game hitting streak
  • LF Trey Amburgey: 0-2, 1 RBI, 1 BB — six walks and only three strikeouts so far this year
  • RF Jhalan Jackson: 0-4, 2 K, 1 HBP — in a 3-for-20 (.150) slump with eight strikeouts
  • 2B Thairo Estrada: 1-4, 1 RBI, 1 K
  • RHP Domingo Acevedo: 7 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 K, 7/3 GB/FB — 57 of 84 pitches were strikes (68%) … his first start was a mess, but the last two have been excellent (combined 13.2 IP, 10 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 14 K)
  • RHP Andrew Schwaab: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 1/1 GB/FB — 15 of 19 pitches were strikes (79%) … the undrafted free agent has 38 strikeouts and six walks in 28.2 innings since signing last year
