The Columbia Fireflies had a day off and will start a three game series against Delmarva at 7.05pm as Gabriel Llanes will make the start.
I think its great seeing Rosario continue to get XBHs and Cecchini is getting out of his slump it seems. Nimmo can’t come back soon enough, Grandy is hitting terribly. I would’ve been open to calling up Taijeron bc at least he’s can get on base on top of the HRs and Ks he will have.
Also Dunn looks a bit overmatched but I think it’s good to see him continue to improve over the year. And Becerra is great seeing hit another homerun but man what is holding up him playing in the OF?
What is the deal with Berrios hitting.185 at Brooklyn last year and getting a call up to Las Vegas. Are we that thin in the outfield?
No disrespect, but there are guys at other full season leagues that should have come up on an emergency basis.
8 errors.. does anyone how many are throwing?
There are prospects and non-prospects. No reason to move a prospect up to sit on the bench for a few weeks to then be sent down again.
