Matt, it’s getting too regular for you, but Jay Bruce was 2-4 last night again. javascript:SJB_appendSmiley(‘:razz:’)
I forgot to mention yesterday, I noticed that Richie Gardner threw again for the GCL Reds, he’s now thrown 5 innings in 2 games, giving up 1 hit, 1 walk, and 6Ks.
Hopefully soon they’ll feel he’s ready to go back up to the level he should be at his age.
The Mets were robbed!!!
Looks like Terrell Young might be putting it together at Billings:
4 IP, 2 H, 1BB, 6K, 0.00 ERA
a promotion to Dayton is probably in the cards pretty soon.
Minor league splits updated through 6/26 - is this accurate that Bruce had no HR’s in June? He’s still had a great month, though (.388/441/553) and I think he’s had two more doubles since this site was updated, close to doubling his double production on the season.
