It turns out that Brandon Laird’s injury may not be as bad as originally thought. He will be at the Double-A Eastern League All Star Game tomorrow. Meanwhile, word on the street according to a few emailers is that Slade Heathcott is dealing with some biceps tendinitis. No big deal, Nick Swisher had a similar issue earlier this season, CC Sabathia last season. They’re just going to take is easy with him, as always.
Finally, Adam Warren has been promoted up to Trenton. Kinda surprised it took this long, to be honest.
Both Triple-A Scranton and Double-A Trenton are off until Thursday for their respective All Star breaks. High-A Tampa and Low-A Charleston both had scheduled off days while Short Season Staten Island had their game canceled due to rain.
Rookie GCL Yanks (3-0 loss to GCL Braves)
Kelvin Duran, RF & Anderson Felix, 2B: both 0 for 3, 1 BB – Duran K’ed … Felix got caught stealing
Gary Sanchez, C: 0 for 3, 1 K, 1 E (missed catch) – he left the game after running out a ground ball in the top of the 6th … not sure what that’s about, hopefully it’s nothing serious
Kyle Perkins, C: 0 for 1
Reymond Nunez, 1B & Cito Culver, SS: both 1 for 4, 1 K – Culver committed a fielding error
Henry Pena, LF: 1 for 3
Tyler Austin, DH: 0 for 2, 1 K, 1 HBP – 13th rounder has some big time power, might not cut it as a catcher long-term, though
Fu-Lin Kuo, 3B & Judd Golsan, CF: all 0 for 3 – Golsan threw a runner out at second, K’ed twice & committed a fielding error
Matt Richardson: 5 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, 1 Balk, 11-1 GB/FB – picked a runner off first … love those grounders
