Vegas 51s 16 (41-34) Sacramento 8 (30-47) Box Score

The 51s erupted in typical PCL fashion for 18 hits, Bernadina led the way driving in five with his two HR. Johnny Monell also hit HR number 10 on the year.

Montero continues his struggles but managed to come away with the victory. #FormerMetWatch Ruben Tejada went 1 for 5 and is now batting a robust .194 in the PCL

Binghamton Mets 4 (30-42) Richmond 3 (27-47) Box Score

Dom Smith homered with two on and two-out in the 7th to give the B’Mets the lead for good. He has homered in back-to-back games. Smith also tied his career high in home runs with six in 258 at bats, he hit six last year in 456 at bats. Kevin McGowan picked up his first AA win, in a game that featured three pitchers who started the year in St. Lucie.

Palm Beach 6 (34-37) St Lucie Mets 1 (36-34) Box Score

St Lucie could not muster much, the only offense came on Lednier Ricardo hitting his first professional HR. Chris Flexen struggled, throwing 84 pitches in 4 innings of work

  • Chris Flexen RHP: 4 IP, 3 ER, 3 K, Loss, (5-7, 3.51)

Augusta 3 (39-34) Columbia Fireflies 2 (36-37) Box Score

Vicente Lupo is 4 for 6 with two RBI and two runs since his return to Columbia. Tyler Bashlor lowered his ERA to 1.59. David Thompson is on the 7 day DL and has not played since June 16.

  • Kevin Canelon 6 IP, 3 ER, 4 K, Loss (4-5 3.20)
  • Tyler Bashlor 3 IP, H, 5 K

Hudson Valley 6 (4-5) Brooklyn Cyclones 4 (3-6) Box Score

Blake Tiberi’s professional debut has to be viewed as a personal success even with the team loss. Woodmansee and Sergakis continue to be the catalyst for the offense.

Elizabethton Twins 5 (3-0) Kingsport Mets 1 (0-3) Box Score

Jake Simon pitched well, and Chris Viall made his debut but it was not enough to prevent the sweep. The Kingsport team could only muster 6 singles off the Twins pitchers, and three errors around the infield contributed to three unearned runs.

GCL Cardinals 5 (2-0) GCL Mets 3 (0-2) Box Score

Base running cost the GCL Mets, two pick offs, and two players caught in a rundown.

  • Luis Silva RHP: 4 IP, 3 ER, 3 K, Loss  (0-1, 6.75)

DSL Rangers1 7 (15-4) DSL Mets1 1 (7-11) Box Score

DSL Mets 1 could only muster four hits, and equalled the amount in errors on the field.

DSL Rangers2 7 (10-9) DSL Mets2 1 (7-12) Box Score

    Mets minor league teams collective record this year is not the best. I know that’s not very important, but they lose…a lot.

    Here’s a question. If we fill 2nd base internally in 17….who will it be?

    Cecchini…or Herrera? Study their numbers. Cecchini never strikes out…gets on base much more than Dilson…and is not just a singles hitter. Herrera…has much more power.

    Dilson is not a standout defensively….and Cecchini has had major issues with his throwing at SS. With Rosario ready to step in at SS in 18…if not mid 17….Cecchini moving over to 2nd makes sense. His game may translate to the major leagues….better than Herrera’s.

    Curious as to what others think.

    I think Cecchini is not with the organization in 17.

    If he is though I agree that he is in the competition at second with Herrera . Along with a veteran or two brought on ST invites.

    For three years I ragged on Tejada mercilessly. He was a scrub in a prime role. However, I’m not happy seeing his misfortune and how far he has fallen. Hopefully he can continue a MLB career, but his play makes him 25th man on most teams and they usually put rookies there, unless they’re the Mets. I hope he has saved some money and hopefully he can learn to become a 100% line drive hitter that gets rid of that uppercut. It’s the only hope he has.

  4. Out of place Met fan

    Agree on all parts, though I do think he will find a role next spring above the 25th man. If only because he plays SS

  5. TurdFerguson15

    Beccera has been a major disappointment this season. I understand the shoulder injury but if it’s limiting him as much as his numbers and DH’ing suggest, he should be rehabbing.

  6. Out of place Met fan

    Slugging is not where I would like, but he is putting the bat on the ball.

  7. Ky

    Can Ceech play 3rd. The throws are a bit easier and he’ll have less chances. I’m sure it’ll they’ll out his arm in the bigs so he can return to short. But the Mets can use his bat.
