Dominican Winter League (from Sunday, October 31)

Ronny Mauricio went 1-for-5 at the plate in the Tigres del Licey’s 3-2 loss to the Leones del Escogido. However, Mauricio had two defensive errors in the fourth inning with a bad throw and a fielding error.

Mauricio and the Tigres will face the Toros de Este tonight at 7:15 PM eastern time.

Arizona Fall League (from Monday, November 1)

The Glendale Desert Dogs defeated the Salt River Rafters by a score of 8-5 on Monday night. Two Mets prospects batted in this game (Brett Baty and Carlos Cortes) and two mets prospects pitched in this game (Colin Holderman and Brian Metoyer).

  • Brett Baty – 3B: 1-3, BB.
  • Carlos Cortes – DH: 0-2, 2 BB, 2 K

Brett Baty had a good day at the plate, drawing a walk and hitting a single in his plate appearances. Carlos Cortes did not have a hit in this game, but he did manage to walk twice. Also, Cortes was caught stealing on Monday night.

  • Brian Metoyer: 1 IP, 0 R, 2 K
  • Colin Holderman: 1 IP, 1 H, o R

Both Mets prospects had a good day on the mound, as both Metoyer and Holderman delivered a scoreless inning. Obviously, the sample sizes for these pitchers were low in this game, but still a couple of positive outings.

Metoyer had at least three curveballs with rpms of at least 3,300. Holderman topped out at 98.1 mph on his four-seamer.

A reminder that all of the Salt River Rafter home games will be streamed by the AFL. Follow @MLBazFallLeague for all the updates.

The Salt River Rafters will take on the Scottsdale Scorpions today at 12:35 PM mountain standard time (2:35 eastern time).
