DSL wins game 2 19-1. Sweep DH by a combined 34-6. Reyes 3IP 2H 0R 0ER 1bb 5K. Mogollon 4-4, HR, 2b, 5 rbi. Flores 2-3, bb, currently hitting .417. They got 16 hits and 11 bb as a team.
DSL Game 2 underway. Mogollon 2-2, HR. His scouting report was bat-first MI, and that seems to be true. He'll be an interesting follow when he gets stateside.

Light slate today. DSL doubleheader and an ACL game tonight.
Ha ha, there's a rain delay in Biloxi with 2 outs in the 9th of a 14-1 game. Birmingham has to drive home after the game. Forfeit! Btw, they got swept in the 6 game series and their pitching was crushed every night. Sox farm does not have a lot of impact even after the trades.
But doesn't he have immigration hoops to jump through, establish residency in the DR, apply to MLB to be eligible, etc? By the time all that stuff's done, won't he be in the next signing period?
Birmingham currently getting smoked 14-1. Jackson Chourio bomb. It scares me that we're sending the best arms in the system -- Mena, Thompson, Kelley, and now Bush and Nastrini into a situation where no one seems to be able to throw strikes and no one is getting any better.
Charlotte already lost and Birmingham is getting thumped, combined scores 22-2. Birmingham has given up a 10 run inning thanks to a lot of walks. There is no mound help on the farm.
