AAA – Buffalo:

Josh Satin's second start of the season at 2b today.

Ben Wagner pointed out a troubling stat yesterday about SP Jeurys Familia. It seems that he has not reached the 5^th inning in six of his last 14 starts. We can spin this stat a hundred different ways , but it’s going to come out smelling like bad cheese.

Familia now seems destined to finish the season at AAA and will continue to try and find his lost command; however, I believe we’re now seeing proof positive that he will not become part of the parent team rotation in the future. He has two great pitches and the quicker the organization puts him in the pen, the more he can solely concentrate on commanding those two pitches.

AAA got a look today at CF Matt den Dekker’s arm. He was accredited with his first outfield assist in the third, throwing out Mike River who was trying to core from third on a fly-out to Deck.

Jenrry Mejia pitched the 6^th – the first 13 pitches resulted in five strikes, a HBP, a walk, and a single… yanked after 22 pitches. This is supposed to be the 2^nd  of four relief appearances he will have in Buffalo.  Final line: 1/3 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 WP, 1 HBP, 22 pitches, 10 strikes.  Wally on Mejia: “Command was the issue. He felt good and the velocity was 90-96 but the command was the issue today.”

Only good news was the 2.2-IP by RP Manny Acosta (0.00).

AA-Binghamton:  

Reese Havens - .169/.297/.285

Piss pour fielding did in SP Greg Peavey…. errors by Rylan Sandoval (2x), Travis Ozga, and Juan Lagares did them in early.

This was about as bad as a game can go. Altoona scored 15 times on 20 hits. Ex-Met Stefan Welsh (.300) went 3-5.

A+ - St. Lucie: -  

ASG-break

SP Cory Mazzoni on the way to Binghamton...
