1. It’s interesting to see that P Mike Antonini has been resurrected from the pen and has been put back into the Binghamton rotation. He starts Thursday night. The B-Met rotation is currently at a 5-year low in high-ERA. I emailed Mike to confirm that he is back in the rotation, and he answered: “yes”. Now, that was an interview!
2. Savannah got hit pretty good on Wednesday, 13-2. SP Eric Beaulac gave up four runs in five innings, but none were earned due to a wild pitch and two more errors by “E-5”. The only highlight of the game was sean Ratliff’s 13th home run of the season.
3. One of the Mets DSL pitchers is named Lefty Febrillet. No, “lefty” isn’t his nickname, it’s his real first name. He pitched three innings last night, which included two wild pitches, but that’s not the story. In a Mets season that sometimes makes no sense, Lefty… is a right handed pitcher.
4. St. Lucie reinstated OF Richard Pena and C Julio Rivera from the DL… they placed P Jimmy Johnson on the DL and sent C Rafael Arroyo to Buffalo.
5. C Mike Nickeas was placed on Binghamton DL, with a right elbow strain.
6. Word I’m getting is the Mets are back to being buyers before the trade deadline and are attempting to put together a package for C Victor Martinez.
7. 1B Nick Evans hit his 5th AAA home run Thursday, in Buffalo’s 4-1 victory. It was a 3-runner and eventually won the game. Larry Broadway pitched well (7.1-IP, 1-R), but Tim McNab got the victory.
8. GCL Met prospect, OF Javier Rodriquez, hit his 2nd professional home run today, also a three-runner. His BA is now up to .250, with a .432 SLG…
