I really want to know how many XBH Devers hit today.  

 

[Plympton91]

Interesting that they promoted Johnathan Roof. This is a guy they originally drafted out of HS but lost him to college and then this past year they took in the minor league rule 5 draft. That's usually a wasteland of stalled prospects going nowhere but to fi out an organizational roster in need of a specific position. Yet, he just had easily the best 2 month stretch of his pro career, and they pushed him up to AA. I wonder if this is someone they actually thought they could "fix"?

 

[Cuzittt]

Drive win 7-3.

Boxscore

Joe Gunkel went 6 innings, allowing a run on 5 hits and a HBP; striking out 7. Jonathan Aro went 3 innings, allowing 2 runs on 3 hits; striking out 4.

Aneudis Peralta went 2/3 with a double. Forrestt Allday and Wendell Rijo each went 2/4; Allday with 2 doubles. Jantzen Witte went 1/3 with a HR and a walk. Jake Romanski and Kendrick Perkins each went 1/4; Romanski with a double, Perkins with a HR. Jordan Weems went 0/3 with a walk. Carlos Asuaje and Tzu-Wei Lin each went 0/4.

Pawsox lose 3-1.

Matt Barnes went 6 innings, allowing 3 runs (2 earned) on 8 hits; striking out 6. Tommy Layne went 2 innings, striking out 3.

Corey Brown went 1/3 with 2 walks and a SB. Christian Vazquez went 1/3 with a double and a HBP. Shannon Wilkerson went 1/4. Brandon Snyder went 0/2 with 2 walks. Justin Henry went 0/2 with a walk and a SB before being PH for by Garin Cecchini who went 0/1. Travis Shaw went 0/3 with a SF. Mike McCoy, Dan Butler, and Carlos Rivero each went 0/4.

 

[Cuzittt]

Salem allows 3 in the bottom of the 9th, lose 5-4.

Boxscore

Pat Light went 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits (1 HR) and a HBP; striking out 3. Dayan Diaz went 2 1/3 innings, allowing 3 runs (1 earned) on 2 hits, 3 walks and a Balk; striking out 5. Madison Younginer came in for one batter, giving up the game winning hit.

Mike Miller went 3/4 with 2 CS. Kevin Heller went 1/3 with a HR and a walk. Reed Gragnani, Ryan Dent, Mario Martinez, and Aneury Tavarez each went 1/4. Matty Johnson went 1/5 with a CS. Leonel Escobar went 0/2 with 2 walks. Tim Roberson went 0/4.

 

[Plympton91]

Looks like Mike Miller going to Salem is the second half of Jonathan Roof's promotion to Portland.  Miller was off to a great start at Greenville last season before disappearing, presumably due to injury.  Will be at least another interesting name to follow at Salem, amid that prospect wasteland.

 

[Cesar Crespo]

Christian Vazquez 11/31 in an 8 game hitting streak.

Over the last 4 games, 7/17 with 2 doubles.

Regarding Roof, he had a significant jump in power in 2013. Maybe they saw a player who already fixed himself?

 

[Cuzittt]

DSL Sox win 10-8.

Boxscore

Jhonathan Diaz went 5 innings, allowing 2 runs on 4 hits (1 HR); striking out 2. Samir El Halaby went 2/3rds of an inning, allowing 6 runs (1 earned) on 4 hits and a walk; striking out one. Jervis Torrealba went 2 1/3 innings, giving up 2 hits and a walk; striking out 2. Carlos Caceres went an inning, giving up a hit and striking out one.

Roldani Baldwin went 4/5 with a double. Luis Alexander Basabe went 2/4 with a double, triple and a walk. Rafael Devers went 1/3 with a triple and 2 walks (and an error which caused 5 runs to be considered unearned). Rafael Toribio went 1/4 with a HBP. Samuel Miranda went 1/4 with a walk. Raiwinson Lameda went 1/5 with a double. Juan Hernandez went 1/4. Pablo Urena went 0/4 with a SF. Carlos Tovar went 0/5.

Devers also picked up two BBs, so he got on base in three of his five ABs.  Impressive lines for his first two games.

 

[jscola85]

Joe Gunkel has taken a liking to the rotation - 3 starts, 15 IP, 3.00 ERA, 18/2 K/BB, 0.67 WHIP
