If you had told me at the beginning of last year that I'd be yearning for Yolbert on the MLB roster by late April, I'd be confused.

Gonna tune in to the Mena start.

He needs to go up to AAA for a couple weeks and then take over for Harrison. Yolbert already has a good glove and at the least his OBP should be good enough even if the power isn't there at a MLB level.

 

Montgomery hits his first pro homer tonight. We need something good today.

Out at the Greenville/Winston-Salem game, and of course, Colas isn’t starting tonight. Pretty sure that is his 2nd game off in 5 games. Oh well…

 

Thompson is pitching tonight, at least.

I'm kinda surprised he's off again. See if you can spot him in the dugout. Maybe he's going to Birmingham.

So Mena gave up a lead off homer, fell over fielding a groundball which was called a single, but then got out of the inning with a ground out, fly out, and a strikeout on a nice curveball.

Ramos continues to hit with a line drive single to LF in his first AB.

You called it! Opposite field homer by Colson.

Yeah he is here, GVL started a lefty so I’m guessing that is the reason. Still, didn’t expect another day off so fast.

Mena is a fastball/curveball/change guy evidently. But holy shit does he throw the curveball tons. Maybe about 40% of the time this outing so far? Got a second K with it in the second inning.

Ok. I'm in on Mena. A few hard hit balls, but lots of weak contact (infield singles), and swinging strikes. He throws the curve tons, and now has 5 strikeouts through 4.0 IP. I really wish the announcer would give us some insight on the fastball velocity though. Kudos to whoever mentioned his line from the first start. Think it was @bmags.

Looks like Matt Thompson is having himself a night as well. 2 H 1 R 0 BB 7 SO through 4.0 IP.

Matthew Thompson 4 IP, 1 R, 0 ER, 2 H, 0 BB, 7 K with only 51 pitches so far

Yeah, he has looked good. The only run scored was on an error from Thompson on a ball he should have never thrown.

This is a decent hitting GVL team as well.

I guess Mena balked a run in from 3rd? Finishes off the 6th with his 6th K. Again on the curve.

Thank god the farm has been interesting to start the season. I'm going to be sad when we trade a bunch of guys for major league help instead of just spending money on it in free agency.

Ramos just sat back real nice on a breaking pitch and lined it up the middle. Dude can hit.

Yolbert once again gets to a full count, then lines a single into LF.

Ooh. Jose Rodriguez just smoked a home run. Get hot kid.
