Trey Yesavage and Gage Stanifer had 15 K's between them as Vancouver won. Austin Cates had another excellent start and Tucker Toman homered for Dunedin's win. And Brandon Barriera made his first start as he returns from Tommy John surgery. Barriera has not impressed so far in his professional career. Last year was supposed to be a big, prove it, year but he got hurt. Now he needs to show his stuff this season. Buffalo's pitching was awful.

NOTES


The Buffalo pitching was ugly. Spencer Turnbull started and was charged with five runs in 4.2 innings. He doesn't appear to be major league ready. It got so bad that Rainer Nunez pitched in the bottom of the eighth.


Seven hits for the Bisons, Riley Tirotta and Phil Clarke had two each.


Trey Yesavage struck out nine in five innings. Gage Stanifer struck out six in four innings, that's a combined 15 strikeout, four hitter. If you want to see Yesavage in Vancouver you should go soon, he is likely headed to AA by July.


The C's scored ten runs without the top of the order. Victor Arias was 0-5, Arjun Nimmala struck out four times, Aaron Parker was 1-5. Lower down the order the C's had home runs from Cutter Coffey, Eddie Micheletti and Nick Goodwin. Jackson Hornung had three hits.


Tucker Toman hit a three run home run in the eighth inning to seal the win for Dunedin. Edward Duran had two hits, Peyton Powell had an RBI double and walked twice.


Austin Cates went 5.2 innings for the win. Over his last five games Cates has thrown 21.2 innings with 12 hits, 11 walks and 22 K's. Obviously the walks need to come down but everything else looks good.


The FCL Jays were held to two hits. Brandon Barriera threw two innings.

No surprise that with Sanchez return, Brooks back down to AA.

No word yet on who gets dropped from the Bisons roster for Stefanic. It's a bit of a tricky one. It should probably be McCarty, but Palmegiani could be in danger too. Rivera another possibility but that might leave them short of guys who can actually field SS at the moment.


Catching depth chart now that all the catchers in the org are healthy (asterisk = not really a C anymore):

MLB Kirk 26, Heineman 34
AAA Bethancourt 33, Sanchez 28, Clarke* 27
AA Sharp 23, Stone 23, Brooks 26
A+ Parker 22, Gililand 23, Deschamps 22
A Duran 21, Tibbits 22, Powell* 24, LaRue* 23

Despite his struggles, somehow Palmegiani has a .348 OBP, higher than his mark last year.

I do wonder if something's going on with him physically, 0 HR is the most shocking part of his line.

They may send a pitcher down, or call up/release Turnbull (there are 15 Ps active and only 13 hitters).

Wagner will be back there soon too. I think McCarty ends up being sent back down one way or another, since Rivera's defense is valuable.

Leo is only on the 7-day again, too, and it sounds like Varsho is hitting already so it won't be long for him either.

some guys are gonna have to go fairly soon I think. I'm a little surprised to see both Stefanic and Sanchez staying tbh.
