New Hampshire and Dunedin put up double digits and won in a near-organizational sweep. Buffalo finished second-best on the scoreboard. Vancouver does not begin their series at Eugene until Wednesday.
The Big, Bad Bombers, coming to a ballpark near you. Near me, anyway.
The affiliates bounced back after lots of losing on Saturday, in fact it was a Sunday sweep. Buffalo scored 17, New Hampshire 13, Dunedin 11 and Vancouver 8. It's just a few weeks but its nice to see some offense after a couple of seasons without much on that side of the ball. Some guys who have been hot stayed hot, Alan Roden went deep twice, Ryan McCarty drove in five and Spencer Horwitz and Will Robertson reached base five times.

Buffalo and New Hampshire had started the season very well but on Saturday they combined to lose four games. Some starting pitchers had a rough go of it but not Adam Macko. Dunedin lost in extra innings. Vancouver were the only winners.
Several Blue Jays hitters had big nights. The New Hampshire Fisher Cats came back from an 8-3 deficit to win 10-8. Unheralded Glenn Santiago had a big night and Josh Kasevich kept up his hot streak. Vancouver split a doubleheader. Dunedin continued to beat up Tampa, Yhoangel Aponte had four hits. Buffalo were rained out.
Come down from the heights, fellas, and play some ball at sea level.
Ricky Tiedemann was wild on Thursday and Buffalo lost a rain shortened game. Damiano Palmegiani hit his first home run. New Hampshire's offense is hot and they rode some big performances to a win. Dunedin's pitching is hot and they shut down the Yankees to run their record to 5-1. Vancouver were rained out.

An organizational sweep! How about that?
At last, at long last, the Blue Jays come home.
It hasn't been a stellar start to the minor league season in the Jays system. But Sunday brought three wins, some good pitching and hitting. Dunedin were most impressive. Down 7-1 after Alek Manoah dug them a hole, they rallied for a walk off win. Buffalo and New Hampshire also had nice wins and although Vancouver lost, they scored six runs. Also while we wait to hear about Brandon Barriera, a new pitching prospect made a dazzling debut today.
Brandon Barriera was pulled from his start Saturday with an undisclosed injury. There is no such thing as a pitching prospect, yeah I know. This comes a day after Ricky Tiedemann had trouble finding the strike zone and on the same day that Chad Dallas and Devereaux Harrison had rough starts.
In better news both Buffalo and Dunedin came from behind to win with strong bullpen performances. New Hampshire lost big while Vancouver's bullpen cost them the game.

Buffalo split a doubleheader, Ricky Tiedemann had trouble finding the zone in game one. New Hampshire came from behind to win. Zach Britton had an excellent game. If only he can stay healthy. Vancouver had three hits and lost, Dunedin had just two hits and lost.
