Caissie isn't wasting any time with 3 2Bs in the only 2 games we have box scores for. Given how mediocre or bad the other bats in the system have been so far this year, the ACL bats will be a very welcome sight once their season begins.

Never mind - Stock clearly isn't starting today for Iowa.

LHP Brendon Little (on AA Tennessee 7-day IL) made a rehab start and needed only 18 pitches to toss two perfect innings (4-3, 6-3, K / L-8, 6-3, 6-3). In fact, he was so efficient that he was sent to the bullpen after he left the game to throw another 15 pitches in the pen.

 

2a. Reggie Preciado, SS: 0-3 (6-3 DP, F-7, K)

3a. Alfonso Rivas, 1B: 2-2 (1B, HR, R, RBI)

4a. Owen Caissie, RF: 2-3 (1B, L-4, 2B, 2 R)

5a. Rafael Morel, 3B: 0-1 (BB, K, R)

7a. Yeison Santana, 2B-SS: 1-1 (2B, HBP, BB, R, 2 RBI, CS)

8a. Jose O. Lopez, LF: 0-1 (E-3, BB, CS)

9a. Ismael Mena, CF: 0-2 (1-3, P-4)

Yet another 2B for Caissie. Probably should ask AZPhil if these are legit doubles or the "taking advantage of poor fielding low minor leaguers" variety.
