Rain stopped play in all three east coast games. When play resumed in Florida, Orelvis Martinez hit three home runs and drove in nine. He is on fire this past week, in the five games against Clearwater he has seven home runs and three four hit games. This will immediately lead to calls to send him to Vancouver. We have to wait and see if he does the same next week against Lakeland. But if he has nothing left to prove in low A, then Vancouver could be in for a treat.

The Buffalo game was suspended but New Hampshire and Dunedin managed to complete their games. New Hampshire and Vancouver lost with late bullpen blow ups. Dunedin were the only winners.

Two rainouts, four losses, not an inspiring night on the farm. Hitting was in short supply, the Jays affiliates had 22 hits across four games.
