If Gowens can have a nice little run of starts, I bet he goes to AAA. Seems to me that he's got a chance to make it.

He's been extremely consistent across levels at generating strikeouts and limiting the walks. Would like to see how he does at the AAA level where he'd finally be age-appropriate and he'd see some serious punishment for giving up hard contact. I think he's had some tough breaks in AA this year that make the ERA inflated relative to what he deserves.

I see Dane Dunning gets the call for Round Rock v. the Knights   I didn't know they had interleague play in AAA.

If they called up Palette, he'd be the best reliever in our pen right now. 

Colson with 2 singles thus far.

Good. 

Focus on contact right now...we know the power is there.

McDougal hitting 100 for at least the second start in a row, but left this one after 2IP due to some long ABs.

Perez go ahead 3R homer for #10 on the season. Made a run saving defensive play at 2B earlier.

Zavala quietly with a .825 OPS in May coming into tonight (1-2 with a RBI so far).

Grant Taylor with a nice inning in relief fwiw

Probably a double if he didn't think it was gone off the bat. He got pinch run for right after in what was possibly a disciplinary move.

108mph EV single caps a 3-4 night for Colson

Far too early to say whether Colson has turned the corner towards a MLB promotion, but I think it's fair to say that his trip to Arizona changed something for the better. On one hand, the bar was set very low by his early season play. On the other hand, there's no doubt other things were being tried to get him to snap out of it and they weren't working. Nice job to those involved in the unorthodox decisionmaking.

This is the outcome I was hoping for with Colson. I thought they should send him to AZ to figure out both swing and approach. Hope he keeps it up. Nice to see Zavala hitting it hard as well.

Kinda rough to see a guy with that ability throwing 11 pitches in an outing.

I do feel like having the guy absolutely blow it out in 1 inning outings may not be *that* much easier on his arm than short, well-paced starts

That's a reliever if there ever was one.

 

Maybe we get Colson & Pallette up in June, followed by Taylor & Braden in the second half?

Add some Teel figuring it out and we’re not the worst MLB roster headed into 26?

Jared Kelly looks like he's born-again hard in the Birmingham pen.

Palette, Dalquist, Kelly....Taylor, too, although I hope he stays in the rotation.

If they're holding Teel back for 2026, just no way in hell they skip Braden over AAA...

Braden won't be up this year. The rest will be up between the all start break and the trade deadline is my guess. Maybe earlier for Colson if he continues this improvement.
