Minor Leagues ~ Day Game with Fajardo. Aita, Thompson, Holiday tonight

[craviduce]

Hernandez, Padilla and Dos Santos in the same lineup.

I expect Hernandez to struggle like Dos Santos has, but I expect both of them to be hot hitters in Palm Beach next season...like they were in DSL last season and the FCL this season

That's a lot of shortstops in one lineup card.

5 of them... Mejia, Weingartner, Padilla, Hernandez, Dos Santos

with Haskins and Smith on the bench tonight.

I've always heard a SS can play anywhere. I guess we'll see.

I forgot Cristofer Lebron....8 SS

Love it! Isn’t his bat supposed to be the weakest part of his game, too?

that's what a few pundits were trying to say late last year...b/c of his indecision at the plate at FCL...so they say.

I think the bat plays...wish he didn't get injured late last year, and missed nearly months this year...he could be Peoria by now.

Palm Beach 8, Ft. Myers 1 ; Top 3rd

Brian Holiday ~ 2IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 4 K, 1 WP .....4 K inning, 3rd K with a WP (curve in the dirt to the backstop)

Yairo Padilla ~ 1-2, Triple, Run, 2 RBI
Ryan Mitchell ~ 1-1, Single, Run, BB
Miguel Hernandez ~ 1-2, Single, Run
Jonathan Mejia ~ 2-2, Double, Single, 3 RBI
J.P. Cabrera ~ 1-2, Single, Run

if Mejia would've touched HP, every Cardinal would've scored that in the 2nd....he just missed HP on Salazar's single.
