Just was thinking about the pen and how many were used there this year and the injuries so I thought 'how has this changed over the years'?

Yes, we just saw these guys.

The affiliates won two out of three Wednesday. A bullpen meltdown and a rainout prevented perfection on the farm.

Only two games were played Tuesday. New Hampshire won and Vancouver lost a strange one. Buffalo's game in Syracuse was not played because someone from the Mets affiliate tested positive for COVID-19. Duendin's contest in St. Lucie was scrubbed due to wet field conditions.

Wrapping up a five game road trip with two games in Miami.
George Springer has been activated from the IL and will be in the lineup tonight, hitting fifth and playing centre field.

Long time Jays watchers know all too well that the Gold Standard for bullpen failure was established almost forty years ago.

There were plenty of home runs for the affiliates on Sunday. How is this for a list of those who homered. Kevin Smith, Gabriel Moreno, Jordan Groshans, Orelvis Martinez, Otto Lopez, Vinny Capra, Addison Barger and Rafael Lantigua. You get a home run, you get a home, everyone gets a home run.

Buffalo, New Hampshire and Vancouver all won, Dunedin lost. On the pitching side Jacob Waguespack and Simeon Woods Richardson stood out.

The Fisher Cats racked up 22 hits in their game. Austin Martin, Samad Taylor and Vinny Capra led the hitters. Elvis was in the building. Buffalo won as did Dunedin. Naswell Paulino pitched well. Vancouver were the only losers on Saturday.

Zach Logue dominated in his first start of 2021 at AAA. Seven shutout innings was just the ticket for a Buffalo win. New Hampshire rallied late for their win. Vancouver struggled while Dunedin split a doubleheader.

Gabriel Moreno hit a grand slam, New Hampshire was down 10-2 at the time, but a slam is a slam. Buffalo won as Thomas Hatch and Nick Allgeyer pitched well. The C's had excellent pitching from Adrian Hernandez and plenty of hitting and won. Dunedin were rained out.

The Blue Jays affiliates won two out of five Wednesday.

The affiliates racked up 30 runs in three games but that was only enough for one win. New Hampshire's game was cut short and will play two today.

Four games with Boston have created such a huge thread that we'll get this one up Right Away.

Vinny Capra, who I assume is someone's cousin, went deep twice for New Hampshire on Sunday. Samad Taylor also hit his ninth home run. Anthony Kay and Paxton Schultz had similarly disappointing starts. Buffalo couldn't recover but Vancouver did. Dunedin were rained out.
