One day after I explained why he might still be in Tampa, the Yankees moved 1B Adam Lind up to Triple-A Scranton, the team announced. Go figure. I don’t know why anyone ever listens to me. Anyway, Lind hit .429/.484/.607 (214 wRC+) with a homer in eight games for Tampa. He can opt out of his minor league deal on June 1st and July 1st.
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (5-4 loss to Pawtucket)
- SS Tyler Wade: 2-5, 1 R — 6-for-21 (.286) in his last five games, so he is kinda sorta showing some signs of life
- 2B Thairo Estrada: 1-5, 2 RBI, 1 K, 1 SB
- CF Clint Frazier: 1-4, 1 3B, 1 BB, 2 K, 1 SB — here’s video of the triple
- 1B Mike Ford & DH Kyle Higashioka: both 0-4, 2 K
- PH Adam Lind: 1-1, 1 RBI
- RHP Chance Adams: 6 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 4 K, 2 HR, 11/3 GB/FB — 59 of 98 pitches were strikes (60%) … even with the two homers, it’s nice to see some ground balls
- RHP Brady Lail: 1 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 0 K, 0/1 GB/FB — 16 of 33 pitches were strikes (48%), though, to be fair, one of the walks was intentional … had three walks total in his previous five appearances and 11.1 innings
Double-A Trenton Thunder (9-0 win over Harrisburg)
- CF Rashad Crawford: 0-4, 1 BB, 1 K
- SS Abi Avelino: 3-5, 1 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 SB — 7-for-17 (.412) with two homers in four games since being sent down from Scranton … three homers in 26 total games this year after hitting three in 98 games last year
- 3B Brandon Drury: 1-3, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K — his rehab was moved here because the RailRiders are heading out on the road and this keeps him closer to New York
- 1B Gosuke Katoh: 1-4, 1 R, 2 K
- RF Jhalan Jackson: 2-4, 2 R, 2 K
- RHP Erik Swanson: 7 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 5 K, 5/6 GB/FB — 63 of 96 pitches were strikes (66%) … 35/9 K/BB in 27.2 innings for one of the guys the Yankees got from the Rangers in the Carlos Beltran trade
High-A Tampa Tarpons (2-1 loss to Florida in ten innings, walk-off style)
- CF Estevan Florial: 1-4, 1 2B — threw a runner out at the plate
- 3B Brandon Wagner: 0-3, 1 R, 1 BB, 2 K
- RF Isiah Gilliam: 0-3, 1 BB, 1 K
- DH Alex Palma: 0-4 — hitting streak ends on nine games
- SS Diego Castillo: 1-3, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K
- RHP Nick Green: 5.1 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 4 BB, 6 K, 7/0 GB/FB — 56 of 95 pitches were strikes (59%) … 43/6 GB/FB in 23 innings
- LHP Trevor Lane: 2.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 2/2 GB/FB — 23 of 32 pitches were strikes (72%) … 22/0 K/BB in 16.1 innings now
Low-A Charleston RiverDogs (11-4 loss to Lexington)
- SS Wilkerman Garcia: 2-4, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 2 K
- RF Steven Sensley: 1-3, 1 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K — back-to-back games with a dinger
- CF Pablo Olivares: 1-4
- LF Leonardo Molina: 1-4, 1 R, 1 K
- RHP Daniel Ramos: 2.1 IP, 6 H, 7 R, 4 ER, 1 BB, 4 K 1 HB, 3/1 GB/FB — 39 of 59 pitches were strikes (66%)
- LHP Anderson Severino: 2.1 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 4 K, 2/0 GB/FB — 29 of 44 pitches were strikes (66%) … 9/6 K/BB in 9.1 innings for the hard-throwing lefty, who is not related to Luis
