Sergio Santos and Aaron Mathews are maintaining their performance levels, and are candidates for promotion.

You missed game #2 between Batavia & Auburn. Manuel Rodriguez broke up a no hitter in the bottom of the 7th and Baron Frost won the game with a walk off 3 run homer a couple batters later.

Thanks, Mendocino.  Fixed.

There's a nice shot of Travis Snider on the Lugnuts website. That young man is going to hit some homers before he's done 19 years from now...

"Sergio Santos and Aaron Mathews are maintaining their performance levels, and are candidates for promotion. "

Indeed. After an average May, Santos especially seems to be heating up again (OPS of 1.130 in last 10 games). Port siders seem to be treated with the same disdain by both with Matthews and Santos sporting OPS' of 1.256 and 1.239 respectively. Considering the dearth of talent in Syracuse at this moment, I wonder how much longer the Jays will wait before advancing them both. Hard to believe they are being 'blocked' by the Adams, Olmedos, Hattigs, Duncans, Mottolas and Griffins of the world.

Here is an old story (with photo) about Joel Collins.  The dialogue was supplied by Crash Davis naturally.
Pistol - Friday, June 22 2007 @ 04:32 PM EDT (#170395) #
For what its worth, Collins was a 50th round pick of the Expos in the 2004 draft.

It's a few days old, but here's an article on Justin Jackson.

Just 12 of 34 sandwich round picks have been signed so far.
