Those of you bemoaning the Jays loss in Boston will only find more misery here, five losses to report. There was little to get excited about on Sunday.

Rochester 5 Buffalo 4

Somerset 12 New Hampshire 2

Vancouver 2 Hillsboro 10

Dunedin 1 Bradenton 2 - resumption of suspended game

Dunedin 5 Bradenton 7 - game two


Three Stars

Third Star - Alexis Hernandez

Second Star - Aldo Gaxiola

First Star - Enmanuel Bonilla


Boxes


NOTES


Buffalo played a tight game. The Bisons had just six hits, the big hit was a three run home run by CJ Stubbs. Ismael Munguia had two hits.


Simeon Woods Richardson gave up three runs in four innings.


NH were outhit 16-4, that's a paddlin. Matt Olson started and he just gave up three of the 12 runs. NH's four hits were all singles, Cutter Coffey had two of them.


Silvano Hechavarria gave up five runs in 1.1 innings as that was essentially that. The C's had five hits in the game, Alexis Hernandez had two of them including a home run.


Dunedin's first game resumed in the sixth inning. Ricky Tiedemann pitched an inning. It remains to be seen if he can pitch again on Tuesday or Wednesday.


In the regularly scheduled game, Dunedin came into the ninth inning in a tie, 3-3. The tie was thanks, in part, to home runs by Raimundo De Los Santos and Aldo Gaxiola. With two outs in the ninth Enmanuel Bonilla pinch hit with a runner on. He homered to give the Jays a 5-3 lead. However reliever Josbel Garcia surrendered a pair of two run home runs to take the loss.


Denis Samudio started and was charged with two runs in four innings while striking out eight. Gaxiola and Austin Smith had two hits each.

SWR just can't get K's

One sliver of good news is that Ricky pitched a scoreless inning and his arm hasn't fallen off.

If Varsho is dealt, the player I'd like to see, for novelty value alone, is Ismael Munguia. 2 hits and a walk today raised his average to 330/436/443 in Buffalo.

First, the not good. He's a LHH 27 yr old 5'8" journeyman who has never sniffed the majors. He has 2 HR's, .115 ISO over 120 PA's (106.8 max EV) and has 1 SB/4 CS with Buffalo. He's playing CF, I'm guessing serviceable like Nathan Lukes in CF.

Here's his scouting report "Munguia is a scrappy spark plug little outfielder who plays his ass off and makes a lot of contact."

So what's the interest? A 32% LD rate with an OK 89.7 EV. A low 23% O-Zone chase, a tiny 3% SwStr rate and an amazing 99% Zone Contact rate. That's Arraez/Kwan territory.

(only minimum 50pa at level shown)


AAA

(UT Schneider* (27): 129pa, 30.2b%, 20.2k%, .296bip, .253avg, .229iso, 173wrc+)

3B Keys (23): 92pa, 15.2b%, 19.6k%, .255bip, .263avg, .368iso, 158wrc+
OF Munguia (27): 120pa, 14.2b%, 5.0k%, .333bip, .330avg, .113iso, 141wrc+
IF Harry (23): 133pa, 6.0b%, 18.0k%, .341bip, .303avg, .227iso, 132wrc+

Along with the two still hot kids here, we have a somewhat interesting group of hot old vets with the purported ability to play CF.....who are all getting playing time largely only because all 3 of Schreck Pinango and Clase are absent the roster due to injuries (to themselves or others).

IF Kasevich (25): 422pa, 10.7b%, 10.9k%, .335bip, .302avg, .098iso, 116wrc+
(OF Pinango* (24): 143pa, 11.2b%, 28.0k%, .358bip, .272avg, .200iso, 116wrc+)
3B McAdoo (24): 336pa, 13.1b%, 22.9k%, .307bip, .255avg, .185iso, 113wrc+
OF Schreck (25): 229pa, 17.0b%, 19.2k%, .263bip, .230avg, .175iso, 113wrc+
C Simoneit (29): 131pa, 12.2b%, 32.1k%, .358bip, .250avg, .196iso, 109wrc+

Kasevich's hot streak has him back right there with other callups like Pinango and McAdoo, so no real reason not to give him an mlb shot too.

UT Jimenez (29): 117pa, 9.4b%, 16.2k%, .345bip, .291avg, .068iso, 100wrc+
IF Mendoza (26): 323pa, 17.6b%, 16.7k%, .260bip, .226avg, .097iso, 98wrc+
C MacIver (29): 282pa, 11.0b%, 26.6k%, .323bip, .241avg, .141iso, 90wrc+
(OF Clase* (24): 217pa, 12.9b%, 24.9k%, .281bip, .223avg, .136iso, 81wrc+)
C Stubbs (29): 97pa, 12.4b%, 34.0k%, .292bip, .212avg, .153iso, 81wrc+
IF Rivera (25): 323pa, 9.3b%, 32.5k%, .299bip, .216avg, .168iso, 76wrc+

Eloy's complete lack of power has turned him into a complete afterthought.




AA

Very Young for Level

IF Nimmala (20): 115pa, 9.6b%, 23.5k%, .352bip, .284avg, .186iso, 124wrc+

Young for Level

nil

Not a perfect line, but a very very good one for a 20yr old SS in AA.


Age Appropriate

OF Arias (22): 220pa, 5.9b%, 22.7k%, .297bip, .249avg, .185iso, 92wrc+
IF Coffey (22): 267pa, 10.9b%, 33.7k%, .340bip, .223avg, .112iso, 74wrc+

Arias just not having the year we hoped for. Not terrible for his age, but not good enough to think about promoting him either. Coffey's year pretty much a write off tho.


Slightly Old for Level

(3B Keys* (23): 209pa, 13.4b%, 24.4k%, .327bip, .285avg, .297iso, 160wrc+)
(IF Harry* (23): 179pa, 3.9b%, 23.5k%, .392bip, .325avg, .254iso, 141wrc+)
OF Perez (23): 115pa, 16.5b%, 25.2k%, .328bip, .263avg, .232iso, 137wrc+
C Parker (23): 217pa, 14.3b%, 30.0k%, .333bip, .255avg, .212iso, 123wrc+
IF Pinto (23): 116pa, 13.8b%, 13.8k%, .275bip, .245avg, .194iso, 112wrc+
UT Gleed (23): 121pa, 12.4b%, 17.4k%, .291bip, .255avg, .147iso, 109wrc+
OF Burgos (23): 285pa, 11.6b%, 17.9k%, .302bip, .262avg, .169iso, 108wrc+

Along with the two already promoted guys, both Perez and Parker continue to look interesting and close to promotion worthy. The other three have been pretty good, but not exactly screaming for promotion.


Old for Level

C Planchart (24): 21pa, 19.0b%, 23.8k%, .500bip, .375avg, .000iso, 141wrc+
OF Bohrofen (24): 197pa, 11.2b%, 34.0k%, .333bip, .253avg, .324iso, 141wrc+
IF Goodwin (24): 288pa, 12.5b%, 21.5k%, .291bip, .252avg, .223iso, 119wrc+
OF Micheletti (24): 379pa, 11.1b%, 17.4k%, .271bip, .250avg, .201iso, 110wrc+
C Sharp (24): 11pa, 0.0b%, 27.3k%, .375bip, .273avg, .091iso, 66wrc+

Bohorofen still injured. Goodwin and Micheletti having solid years but nothing crazy for their age. Sharp just promoted and Planchart i think about to come back from the DL too, pushing out older filler like Hackenberg and Winkel.


Too Old for Level

(OF Munguia* (27): 68pa, 11.8b%, 10.3k%, .360bip, .345avg, .109iso, 131wrc+)
OF Cunningham (25): 134pa, 13.4b%, 34.3k%, .383bip, .248avg, .174iso, 118wrc+
(OF Martin* (30): 207pa, 16.4b%, 23.7k%, .336bip, .261avg, .145iso, 115wrc+)
IF Doughty (25): 115pa, 9.6b%, 27.0k%, .324bip, .238avg, .099iso, 76wrc+

Almost all of the "too olds" have been promoted or let go now - only 2 left here - Cunningham, who could be promoted, and Doughty, who looks like he'll be let go soon.



A+

Young for Level

(SS Nimmala* (20): 105pa, 15.2b%, 22.9k%, .283bip, .241avg, .241iso, 121wrc+)

Age Appropriate

OF Shaw (21): 96pa, 25.0b%, 21.9k%, .244bip, .239avg, .296iso, 155wrc+
C Sprock (21): 46pa, 15.2b%, 21.7k%, .259bip, .237avg, .211iso, 110wrc+
3B Chirinos (21): 195pa, 9.7b%, 30.8k%, .275bip, .194avg, .100iso, 59wrc+

Shaw still injured. Sprock off to a solid start. Chirinos with a disaster year.


Slightly Old for Level

IF Toman (22): 315pa, 13.7b%, 25.7k%, .355bip, .273avg, .169iso, 126wrc+
IF Snow (22): 145pa, 11.0b%, 9.0k%, .310bip, .299avg, .134iso, 117wrc+
IF Beltre (22): 225pa, 7.1b%, 21.8k%, .287bip, .244avg, .149iso, 85wrc+
C West (22): 18pa, 5.6b%, 16.7k%, .308bip, .250avg, .063iso, 81wrc+
C Duran (22): 144pa, 3.5b%, 20.8k%, .279bip, .230avg, .111iso, 61wrc+

Toman and Snow look promotion worthy, though not overwhelmingly so.

Beltre having a poor year, while Duran is having a disaster year compared to his expectations.


Old for Level

OF Hernandez (23): 301pa, 11.0b%, 19.6k%, .321bip, .282avg, .214iso, 132wrc+
OF Casey (23): 97pa, 11.3b%, 27.8k%, .326bip, .237avg, .171iso, 127wrc+
(UT Gleed* (23): 202pa, 9.4b%, 20.3k%, .302bip, .269avg, .194iso, 114wrc+)
UT Freethy (23): 366pa, 15.6b%, 24.3k%, .319bip, .238avg, .117iso, 104wrc+
IF Latta (23): 313pa, 13.4b%, 19.8k%, .307bip, .245avg, .083iso, 92wrc+

Hernandez and Casey looking solid. Could be moved up.

Team seems to really like Freethy and keeps feeding him top of the order at bats but his year is overall disappointing. Latta about the same.


Too Old for Level

(UT Cunningham* (25): 223pa, 15.7b%, 31.4k%, .343bip, .250avg, .261iso, 137wrc+)
OF Vallee (25): 68pa, 10.3b%, 14.7k%, .375bip, .310avg, .086iso, 119wrc+
(C Sharp* (24): 196pa, 9.2b%, 18.4k%, .295bip, .265avg, .199iso, 113wrc+)
UT Williams (25): 275pa, 12.4b%, 20.7k%, .309bip, .256avg, .162iso, 107wrc+

Again, almost all the "too olds" have been promoted or dropped now. Only Vallee and Williams remain - though i'm not sure either of them is gonna be around the org much longer.



A

Very Young for Level

IF Sanchez (18): 306pa, 7.5b%, 26.5k%, .293bip, .225avg, .142iso, 79wrc+

Seems to be coming out of his awful slump.


Young for Level

IF Parker (19): 362pa, 16.6b%, 24.3k%, .305bip, .237avg, .179iso, 115wrc+
OF Bullard (19): 367pa, 9.0b%, 27.0k%, .353bip, .265avg, .146iso, 102wrc+

Parker and Bullard still just good, not great, on the year.


Age Appropriate

OF Bonilla (20): 65pa, 6.2b%, 33.8k%, .400bip, .288avg, .186iso, 112wrc+
IF Ramon (20): 279pa, 12.2b%, 15.1k%, .284bip, .245avg, .114iso, 105wrc+
IF Gaxiola (20): 265pa, 4.9b%, 28.7k%, .308bip, .241avg, .188iso, 90wrc+

Decent enough to keep an eye on.


Slightly Old for Level

(C Sprock* (21): 280pa, 17.5b%, 11.1k%, .332bip, .306avg, .135iso, 144wrc+)
OF DeLosSantos (21): 173pa, 15.6b%, 30.1k%, .371bip, .250avg, .111iso, 106wrc+
OF Joseph (21): 67pa, 11.9b%, 19.4k%, .348bip, .276avg, .052iso, 91wrc+

meh.


Old for Level

(C West* (22): 37pa, 5.4b%, 16.2k%, .500bip, .441avg, .147iso, 175wrc+)
C Lasaracina (22): 70pa, 11.4b%, 28.6k%, .297bip, .237avg, .203iso, 108wrc+
OF Cook (22): 217pa, 14.7b%, 26.3k%, .361bip, .257avg, .084iso, 102wrc+
(IF Snow* (22): 182pa, 11.5b%, 17.0k%, .344bip, .285avg, .076iso, 101wrc+)
OF Licourt (22): 194pa, 16.0b%, 44.3k%, .343bip, .194avg, .206iso, 95wrc+
C Cresswell (22): 128pa, 10.9b%, 41.4k%, .310bip, .171avg, .045iso, 42wrc+

Lasaracina continues to be interesting.


Too Old for Level

UT Tibbitts (23): 121pa, 14.0b%, 26.4k%, .319bip, .220avg, .070iso, 83wrc+
OF Smith (23): 206pa, 15.5b%, 18.0k%, .256bip, .207avg, .061iso, 80wrc+

meh.

Temporary inactive list is a catch all that could be used for anything.

Jay Harry has now been placed on the IL.

With all the new players coming in there could be some releases coming too.

my best summary of the state off the rosters - players slotted in on the roster they would be on if healthy - injuries are saving the org from having to make a number of cuts at the moment.

uglyone - Tuesday, July 28 2026 @ 06:07 PM EDT (#480977) #
Now it looks like Brock Tibbits is no long listed on Dunedin's website roster. Might have been released.

Vancouver still with one extra position player.
uglyone - Tuesday, July 28 2026 @ 06:09 PM EDT (#480978) #
confirmed - Tibbitts has been released, and also C Cresswell - so Carapalotti keeps the last C spot.

Vancouver still with one extra position player.
