Pintaro only has a 3.65 MiLB ERA, but because he also has  a 2.61 in four major league games, I’m going to keep him on here.

On Wednesday, the Mets used Pintaro as the 26^th man… 2-IP, 2-H, 4-ER, 2-BB, 3-K. Major league ERA now up to 5.11. Hmm…

NEW ADDITION - SP(?) Dakota Hawkins/A+ Brooklyn – not sure Hawk is a starter now, though he did start on Sunday, tossing 3.2 scoreless innings, giving up only two hits, walking one and striking out two. The important thing is he has now lowered his seasonal ERA to 2.08, far below the minimal 2.99 needed to make this report. Welcome Hawk.

6-23 – 4-IP, 3-H, 0-R, 5-BB, 3-K – much too wild, but still went hitless. He will have to work on this as he moves up the chain, and he will elevate to Brooklyn soon at this rate. Increasing control should easily increase his IP/G to 6+.

We may have something here.

RP Randy Guzman/DSL Mets – This is not the Randy Guzman that plays first base and outfield in Florida for the St. Lucie Mets. No, this is the Randy Guzman that pitches for the DSL Mets, who went 4.2IP, 2-H, 0-R, 0-BB, 7-K in his last outing. The 18/yr. old’s overall season stats after this game were 12-1-IP, 2-H, still 0-R, 2-BB, 15-K, 0.00, 0.81. Where does he go from here? We’ll keep an eye on him.

I never intended on this weekly report to be this dismal, but, at this point in the season, it is.
