David Thompson out of the lineup for the second straight game.
Ivan Wilson with a two-run homer, Fireflies have 4-0 lead in the 3rd.
Dilson not in the lineup for Vegas, possible call up I would think.
Rivera singles in first at bat tonight, hitting .371 now.
Fireflies winning 8-2, Milton Ramos has knocked in three runs.
RBI single BY Wuilmer Becerra ties the St. Lucie game at 2 in the 5th inning.
Guillorme has been on base three times tonight, he has been heating up recently.
Logan Taylor gives up two runs in the 8th inning and Binghamton heads to the night trailing 5-2
Las Vegas heads to the 5th inning trailing 2-0. Lugo has retired 12 of his last 13 batters
Fireflies win 8-4, JC Roriguez had four hits and Pat Mazeika had three.
If I were the Mets I would call up Herrera and move Walker to 1st if Duda misses time.
I would do that too if Walker was comfortable there, been a long time since he has played first though.
Would be nice if he could get a shot as a bench piece for the Mets.
The problem with 1b is that we don’t have a lot of depth behind Duda there. We don’t have a LHB that could play 1b. Unless they play De Aza there.
Fulmer in PSL (age 21)
3.98 ERA 1.505 WHIP 2.77 K/BB
Flexon (before tonight)…Age 21
4.54 ERA 1.464 WHIP 2.07 K/BB
Things can turn quickly as Fulmer proved.
RBI hits from Rivera and Taijeron cut the Vegas deficit to 3-2 in the 7th inning. Rivera has now knocked in 40 runs this year.
Doesn’t matter whether it’s lefty or not, they just don’t have much depth there. Short-term they will play Campbell until Flores comes off DL.
