[Futuregm2]

YAYYYYYYY

Happy Quinn Mathews back on the mound day! Rainiel Rodriguez better hit a HR for him.

[craviduce]

No Vid, No sound, No Statcast, No updates by the Org....we'll have to wait a week, and if he pitches next Monday, we have to consider that a good thing.

Sorry, Folks...I can't offer anything more than that. Unless you want some interpretive analysis on Game Day Photos.

Quinn Mathews strikes out fellow rehabber Sam Petersen. The crowd goes wild...I presume

and then he K's an 18yo. youngster...the crowd is indifferent, as whispers of bullying echoes around the chain link fences

clearly, Mathews, 24yo, was picking on the 18yo

FCL Cards 0, FCL Nationals 0 ; Bot 1st

Quinn Mathews ~ 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K

Nats have a rehabbing AAA pitcher, too....RHP Tyler Stuart, 6'9", 250lbs

[craviduce]

this is purely speculation...but hear me out on this....

Matt Lloyd, 1B, Memphis AAA...goes on the IL on Sunday.

Today or Tomorrow, there may be the typical accordion promotion train....1B/C could be affected. Now, I don't expect Bernal to AAA, b/c he won't play much with Crooks there.

Yeager may get a promotion to help cover 1B with Gavin Collins. That would leave Springfield in need of another 1B. Curialle or Tarlow could get the promotion to Springfield to help with 1B. This takes Kross to Peoria for 1B and Catcher needs. And finally....Rainel Rodriguez to Palm Beach to split catching duties with Sammy Hernandez and 1B/DH duties with Deniel Ortiz

Yairo Padilla ~ 0-1...ground out
Rainel Rodriguez ~ 1-1, Single...gameday says pop up to SS...probably an over the shoulder miss in shallow LF? Or a complete loss of the ball in the sun...drops around the SS, but doesn't touch the glove?

The Mighty Quinn returns!

[Strummer Jones]

By those smarter than me...does this mean Mathews is back in good health? Or is this just a case of a big fish rehabbing in a very small pond?

I wouldn’t read much into the line other than that he’s back on the mound.
