Lansing was the only victor last night on the farm though did they ever mash. 21 hits and 15 runs. Shane Dawson had a nice start at AA New Hampshire and Max Pentecost had a solid night behind the plate and with the bat.

Buffalo Bisons

When I look at the box scores and see that Jason Leblebijian had three hits, as he did last night, a little part of me dies. Those long names give me fits and almost always butcher the spelling. Outside of the aforementioned Leblebijian not much of note happened in Buffalo. The team couldn’t catch the ball yesterday—four errors and all.

New Hampshire Fisher Cats

Shane Dawson pitched five innings of two-hit, one-run ball yesterday. The lone run though was enough to top the good guys as our AA batsmen were woeful with runners in scoring position.

Dunedin Blue Jays

Another four error game. Glenn Sparkman pitched three and a third, yielding three unearned. Max Pentecost doubled, had two RBIs, and threw out two runners. Two wild-pitches, however, were charged on his watch. It’s my understanding that catchers usually wear those in the eyes’ of coaches.

Lansing Lugnuts

21 hits and 15 runs for Lansing. All this without the popular Bo Bichette in the lineup. Fangraphs had a piece on Bichette yesterday.

Three Stars

MMA has J-Lau (Joe Lauzon).  Why not J-Leb?  sounds better than J-Lau, and I love that guy.

Lansing's lineup is a thing of beauty - can anyone remember a more potent minor-league Jay's offense (relative to their league)?

I really am a fan of calling up relievers when they are hot, and Jeff Beliveau is a weapon for Buffalo right now.  Not sure I care if Howell has millions left on his deal - Beliveau is likely a better option right now.

The Jays have done that before - we walked away from $2 million for Morales last year, and he pitched all of 4 big league innings.

I am guessing that the 1st half for Dunedin and Lansing end at their All Star game. June 17 and 20.

Lansing is quite far behind to qualify. Dunedin has a decent shot.

The DSL season starts today. Looks to me like almost all the players are new.

Lansing have made a number of moves. Brad Jones, Zach Jackson and Jackson McClelland have been promoted to Dunedin. Jake Thomas has been sent to New Hampshire.

Osman Gutierrez has been activated off the DL, Rodrigo Orozco has been promoted from extended spring while Nash Knight and Connor Eller are down from Dunedin.

JC Cardenas appears to be back in Dunedin from AA. Don't know what this means for Kevin Vicuna.

I am thinking Vicuna will play for Vancouver when their season begins.
