    Vincent Velasquez is back in action tonight! Dominated in his rehab assignment. Hope to get him on the fast track to AA to start next season.

    Josh Hader, after tagging in for Vince Velasquez: 4 IP, 2 H, BB, 6 K

    Vince had a nice start after being activated from the DL as well. 5 IP, 2 H (solo homer), 2 ER, BB, 2 K

    Gotta imagine we'll see a lot of shuffling throughout the system after the trade deadline on Thursday. Here's hoping!

    Anybody have any insight on Frankeny Fernandez over in the DSL. His combo of size, speed and seemingly advanced approach has my attention.

    6'1, 17 years old, .323/.439/.449 line, 29 steals only caught twice. 46/33 K/BB

    Indeed. I don't think Velasquez needs to prove anything else.
