AA Biloxi have dropped 3 straight at Columbus and now turn to RHP Travis Smith (7.58 ERA, 1.69 WHIP. 6.4 K/9 in 59.1 IP) who’s pitching for the first time in 17 days. 1B Blake Burke has a 24-game on-base streak.

21-year old RHP Hayden Robinson has been humming along recently (1.52 ERA with 24 Ks in last 23.2 IP) and now looks to lead Low-A Wilson to a 3-2 series lead at Hill City. DH/C Rylan Mills has had quite the debut campaign (.901 OPS in 177 PAs).

2 - T. Ebel - SS
3 - Ortuno - 3B
4 - Antunez - CF

RHP Ethan Dorchies (6 IP, 1 R, 4 Ks last outing) and High-A Wisconsin can clinch a home series win over Beloit tonight. DH Luis Castillo has a 12–game hitting streak.

The AAA Sounds welcome SS Jett Williams (first game since July 7) and rehabbing DH Sal Frelick (first action since July 17) to their lineup as the team aims to seize a 3-2 series lead at Memphis. RHP Garrett Stallings is back from an MLB stint (5 IP, 0 R, 5 Ks in 2 contests).

Biloxi is having a miserable week in Columbus.

I saw Tate Keuhner was pitching in the bridge league the other day. He’d be some nice depth down the stretch if healthy.

Jett left mid-AB in the first? Next year is his year.

Luke Adams is mashing.

So if Joey has to go on IL…..who is next man up at Nashville if Jett is hurt?
