Between McDonald, Blubaugh, Dubin, and Whitley, the SL pitching staff might not be a complete embarrassment. Indeed, you would hope at least one or two of those guys could help out the big league club this year. Would take them over Dana's quick picks.
Fayetteville had an early game today and won 4-2. Chase Jaworsky hit his first HR of the year and James Hicks pitched 4 scoreless innings with 5k and 1bb.
Jaworsky and Anthony Sherwin both drove in two for Fayetteville; Jaworsky also had an RBI single and Sherwin went deep for the first time as a pro with a two-run shot.
Everyone in the Asheville lineup had a hit in their 7-3 win in Brooklyn today; Collin Price went 4-5 with a two-run double.
Pedro Leon is 3-4 tonight and has a hit in all 10 games he’s played in this season. His BA sits at .378. Forrest Whitley has given up 3 HR in 0.1 inning so far.
I wish Whitley would stick with the sinker and not split between it and the four seam. He always overcomplicates everything.
Jaworsky is a Fulbright and Jaworsky that you will never need to know. Let it go. I dated a Baker back in the day, it sucked, I moved away.
Miguel Ullola didn't allow a hit and struck out 6 for Corpus... but he only went 4.1 innings and walked 7. Then again, the one run he allowed came on a double play.
AJ Blubaugh looking great in his AAA debut. 4ip, 0er, 5k, 1bb, only 55 pitches, FB 92-95 but looks like he’s been throwing cutters, sliders, and curveballs.
