 It great to see Hendricks throwing darts again.

What's he throwing?

If it's actual darts, that explains the good results. 😜

Kaleb Wing placed on the 7-day IL. 

Myrtle Beach posted a few Instagram pics of Wing and he wasn’t in a cast, sling, brace or anything like that…so fingers crossed.

Wish he could hit even a little.

Ty Southisene to the IL.

That's fun! 

Tangent, but I wonder if Jace Beck has any chance to get promoted if he can keep his burn going?  And if so, whether it will all unravel at Iowa, or if he might keep it up?  Like, if Brody took Beck's spot with Beck up?

I'm surprised he hasn't been promoted already. He hasn't given up more than 1 run since May 27. Granted, some of those outings were 2 or 3 innings, but I think the only concern with him right now is strike throwing. Maybe he pitches one more time and goes to Iowa after the all-star break. Hopefully along with Ayers

Yeah I'm guessing with Beck they're heing gentle with him while he stretches out.  He's also been pitching on 6 days rest (every Saturday) instead of 5.  I wonder if they let him beat up on AA through the end of the month and build up some innings, and then move him to Iowa and start shortening him back up in preparation for a potential September callup.  He's 26 and Rule 5 eligible so there's no roster-management considerations with him.

Pierce Coppola promoted to high-A South Bend.
