Is Palencia expected to make this start? Sure would be nice if all four make the two starts this week 

 

Yeah, I heard he is fine and isn’t expected to miss a start..

Christian Franklin and Ezequiel Pagán to South Bend:

Breath of relief on that, whenever it's a shoulder I'm just assuming it's a year+ if at all ever coming back.

Soft confirmation that Kilian is the starter for the MLB club on Saturday

Javier Assad starting for Iowa.

Oops, Bertz beat me.

[CubinNY]

Smokies had back to back HRs. PCA had an infield single.

Gun might be hot but Palencia was 101 in the 1st. 

[Bertz]

Owen Caissie now batting 3rd for Tenn.  Hernandez and Ballesteros batting 2nd and 3rd for Myrtle.  Cool little acknowledgment for these guys who are among the younger players in their respective leagues and off to hot starts.

Hearn just extended his little hitting streak with a broke bat single. 

He even crossed above a .550 OPS on the season.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Kevin Made and Cristian Hernández both got bumped to the 2 spot in their respective lineups and each responded with 0/4, 3 strikeout games.

Bailey Horn is now up to 9 IP, 3 H, 19/5 K/BB.  He's 25 and R5 eligible, might be seeing him bumped to Iowa sooner than later since he's got a 54% (!!) K%
