Opportunities have been a bit scarce for Carolina since the 2nd inning, which makes it more painful the they ran themselves out of the 4th and 6th innings via caught stealing (Yhoswar at 3rd, Luis Castillo at 2nd). They trail 4-2 in the bottom of the 8th inning on a true bullpen day (4 Mudcat pitchers - max 2.2 IP). -
Stiven Cruz allowed 1 run in the 7th inning, then Aaron Rund stranded 2 in the 8th, so Wisconsin’s clinging to a 2-1 lead. I figure Yerlin Rodriguez will get the 9th.
-
Alexander Cornielle threw 6 scoreless innings, allowing only 3 singles and a walk with 5 Ks. But it remains a tight affair with Wisconsin leading 2-0. Luis Lara (double, run) and Jadher Areinamo (single, RBI, run) have principally generated the offense. DH Jesus Chirinos exited after lining out in the 2nd inning.
-
Stallings and Edward Cabrera are both being hit hard in Jacksonville. 4-4 game in the 3rd inning. The Sounds might have grabbed the lead if Wiemer could hit (K’d with Hicklen on 3rd with 1 out). Dorrian also tripled. Collins doubled and stole a base.
-
I was wrong. Figueroa exits after 2 innings and 43 pitches, having yielded 3 runs on 2 homers and a double. RHP Jose Nova comes in with Carolina trailing 3-2. Daniel Guilarte and Miguel Briceno have both doubled and scored for the good guys.
-
AAA Nashville needs a victory behind RHP Garrett Stallings (4.95 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, 8.1 K/9 in 20 IP) today to earn a 3-3 series split at Jacksonville. 3B Patrick Dorrian’s 3 hits yesterday raised his average from .110 to .135.
-
High-A Wisconsin is also targeting a 4-2 home series win over South Bend, leaning on 22-year old RHP Alexander Cornielle (3.44 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, 7.4 K/9 in 55 IP) to get the job done. 2B Jadher Areinamo is 2nd in the Midwest League in hits (77), 1st in doubles (18).
-
Low-A Carolina can clinch a 4-2 home series win with a victory over Lynchburg today. RF Reece Walling returns after exiting Tuesday’s game early. RHP Jeferson Figueroa (2.28 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, 11.1 K/9 in 27.2 IP) hasn’t exceeded 57 pitches since September 2022 (last 42 outings), but don’t be surprised if he blows through that mark today.
-
I doubt Arnold will do it, but he'd likely need to option Mitchell until about August 24th to snatch an extra year. I calculate Mitchell as having accrued 1 year, 134 days of MLB service time thus far, most of it while injured. August 24 - September 29 would give him another 37 MLB days, leaving him 1 day short of 2 years. I'm also no expert on the rules, but that's my best guess based on the 172 days = 1 season guidance point.

Solid shutout by Yujanyer Herrera and Brian Fitzpatrick. No extra-base hits allowed. Just 1 walk. No HBPs. 8 Ks in 7 innings. However, this does not look like a 6’3”, 175-pound man to me. Just saying.
-
This is where the O’Rae promotion caught me off-guard. Eduardo Garcia, Felix Valerio, Gregory Barrios, Matt Wood, Jadher Areinamo and Luke Adams all have decent promotion cases, in my opinion, though there’s only room to move 1-2 right now. I guess the near-term promotion chain (assuming there is one) could be something like: Bitonti, TBD; Yhoswar, Pratt; TBD, TBD; Campbell, CD-Rod.

After leading 2-1 since the 4th inning, Justin Yeager unfortunately couldn’t close it for Biloxi, allowing a 3-run homer with 2 outs in the top of the 9th inning. He was ahead 0-1 to that batter and 0-2 to the prior hitter (singled). Yoho and Holub are the true shut down guys, but Yeager can normally be counted on - he drops to 7-for-9 in save opportunities. Solid work by Shane Smith, Bo Bowman, Sam Carlson and Justin King over 8 innings: 1 R, 5 H, 2 BB, 2 HBP, 8 Ks CF Carlos D. Rodriguez tripled in a run and scored in the 4th inning to give Biloxi the 2-1 advantage which nearly held up.
-
Should the organization go ahead and make Gregory Barrios the 2nd-youngest player in the Southern League? I’m sure that’s what they’re contemplating and perhaps struggling with as they consider whether to promote Cooper Pratt to High-A.
-
Thorough shellacking in Wisconsin’s 10-1 victory: - Scored each of first 4 innings for 10-0 lead, with all 9 players reaching base in the game, 8 via hit - Will Rudy went 5 innings strong, issuing no walks or HBPs and only 4 hits (HR, outfield single, 2 infield singles) - 4 doubles and 4-for-4 on SB attempts - Luke Adams reached base 4 times (1B, 3 BB), Gregory Barrios had 3 hits (and an SB) and Jheremy Vargas 3 RBIs and 2 SBs
-
4 shutout innings from Bishop Letson. 9-for-9 on stolen base attempts (led by Yhoswar Garcia and Daniel Guilarte who combined for 6!), while C David Garcia threw out both attempted stealers for the Hillcats. Yhoswar reached base 3 times (2B, 1B, HBP) and the team survived a Harrison Durow special (3 ER, 4 runners stranded in 2 IP). Congrats to Tyler Bryant on the 2-inning save.

After taking the opening game of today's doubleheader to even their home series against South Bend 2-2, High-A Wisconsin sends 20-year old RHP Yujanyer Herrera (3.40 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 10.5 K/9 in 53 IP) to the mound for Game 2. Hall, Valerio and Rodriguez enter for Lara, Wood and Vargas. 1 - Barrios - SS 2 - Areinamo - 2B 3 - Garcia - CF 4 - Adams - 3B 5 - Hall - 1B 6 - Valerio - LF 7 - Chirinos - DH 8 - Rodriguez - C 9 - Fernandez - RF X - Herrera - P

DH/INF Mike Boeve returns and RHP Shane Smith (3.14 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, 11.8 K/9 in 48.2 IP) is on the hill as AA Biloxi aims to clinch a home series win over Pensacola.
-
LHP DL Hall is making his 6th rehab start for AAA Nashville, though he pitched 4 days ago. The Sounds are tied 2-2 in their series at Jacksonville. DH/OF Garrett Mitchell is still with the team on the final day of his rehab month.
-
Mike Boeve’s obviously back after a 9-day absence:
-
High-A Wisconsin trails South Bend 2 games to 1 at home, but can flip the script in today’s doubleheader. RHP Will Rudy (5.68 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 7.6 K/9 in 52.1 IP) starts the first game and DH/INF Jadher Areinamo comes in with an 11-game hitting streak.
-
19-year old RHP Bishop Letson (3.71 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, 9.8 K/9 in 34 IP) gets his first game action in 19 days and C David Garcia is also back after exiting an inning early Thursday night, as Low-A Carolina seeks to grab a 3-2 home series lead over Lynchburg. SS Cooper Pratt has his safely in 19 of 20 games.
-
C Edgardo Ordonez just hit his 7th homer of 2024 in the ACL. That should ordinarily garner a promotion, but his defensive stats have gone from solid to awful (errors, passed balls, low CS ratio).
-
Darrien Miller hit his first homer since July 23 last year, a 2-run contribution to push the Shuckers lead to 7-2. Miller is 3-for-4 with 3 RBIs, needing a triple for the cycle.
-
RHP Easton McGee is making his 2nd rehab start for the ACL Brewers. This is encouraging, as it appears the rehab appearances of LHP Brandon Knarr and INF Christian Arroyo have been put on hold.
-
The Mudcats followed up their 2-run 6th inning with 3 more in the 7th: an HBP, 3 singles and 2 sac flies did the trick to grab a 5-2 lead. 4 different Mudcats have an RBI, led by Miguel Briceno (2-for-4). RHP Jeison Pena then scared everyone by giving up a double and a walk, but he produced a great escape (GIDP, ground out). They’re thru 8 innings.
