Hopefully Click can work Jones in as the throw in as part of a trade for Garcia and Bleier from Miami this weekend.
There were those that wanted Jake for CF this year. How about Jake Myers? .341/.406/.626 A Jake @ Rake Farm that can hit? https://www.milb.com/player/jake-meyers-676694 Too bad we are a bit logjammed there for now.
Bryan De La Cruz hit two homers tonight, giving him nine on the year. The 9 homers are a new career-high and it took him 46 games to get there. His previous career-high was 8 (in 105 games) in 2019. Matthew Barefoot had a three-run homer (12) in Asheville's 12-0 win over Hickory.
Down in the FCL... Miguel Palma and Ricardo Balogh homered for the Palm Beach 'Stros. Palma showed a little pop in the DSL with four homers in his pro debut in 2019. Balogh, who also debuted in 2019, had a slightly rougher time as he hit .186 without any extra-base hits in 47 games. Guess he showed enough in Dominican instructs to warrant a move to the United States.
How dope would this August AA lineup be?: SS Leon 3B Perez C Lee RF Barefoot CF McKenna 1B Manea LF Schreiber/Adolph DH Valdez/Costes 2B Kessinger/Hensley
