Mack – Transactions and Kudos: Tim Tebow, Bryce Hutchinson, Matt Mullenbach, Wilfred Astudillo

Saturday, August 10^th   –

AAA-Syracuse OF Tim Tebow has been shut down for the remainder of the baseball season, due to (what they say) complications from an earlier finger laceration that hasn’t healed properly.

I say this strangely coincides the college football season start where he makes millions doing announcing.

AAA-Syracuse SP, Harol Gonzalez, was placed on the IL.

     

      Kudos –

AAA-Syracuse – RP Matt Blackham: 2-IP, 0-R, K, 1.08

      Next up?

AA-Binghamton – RF Quinn Brodey: 2-4, R, 4^th HR, 3-RBI

            A+ St. Lucie – SP Tylor Magill: 5-IP,0-ER, 8-K

A-Columbia – SP Bryce Hutchinson: 5-IP, R, 3-K, 3.57

Hutch seems to have settled into the starter role after being the back end of a piggy for SWR for most of the season.

Low-A Brooklyn – RP Matt Mullenbach: 1-IP, 0-R, K, 1.50

Here’s a hint. If I am featuring a reliever with the minimal amount of innings pitched, it probably means the team lost with a minimal amount of offense.

Rookie-Kingsport – C-1B Wilfred Astudillo: 2-4, R, 4^th HR, 2-RBI, .310

The unheralded “Dillo” debuted in 2017 as a 17-year old for the DSL-1 team (182-AB, 281). In 2018, he played for both the DSL-2 and GCL team, and is hitting .310 this year for K-Port.

That’s an impressive three year MiLB total of 392-AB, .282 for this impressive young kid.

            GCL – RP Jeffrey Colon: 2.2-IP, 0-R, 3-K

            DSL-2 – C Kevin Torres: 2-2, 3-R
