Three losses and a rainout on Thursday. Despite the losses there were two very good starting performances by Khal Stephen and Grant Rogers but both ended in walk off losses. So given that there was little to highlight on the field I thought I would take a look at the season so far.

Buffalo 1 Durham 7

Buffalo 2 Durham 1

New Hampshire 4 Portland 1

Dunedin 7 Jupiter 4

Vancouver 8 Spokane 4

Hand me down my walkin' shoes.

The road trip, off to a shaky start, continues with four games in Olde Fenway Park.

As many of you have read elsewhere, Vlad has signed a 14 year $500 million deal to be here for his career (covers to age 40).

It seems as though the pitchers are ahead this early in the season. The Blue Jay pitchers, below AAA, have been excellent. The three starters on Sunday did not allow a run. Rafael Sanchez, Juaron Watts-Brown and Austin Cates were each excellent. Only two of the teams, New Hampshire and Vancouver, won. Dunedin lost. Buffalo were rained out again.

Two wins and two rainouts on Saturday. Jackson Wentworth had a great pro debut for Vancouver while Jaden Rudd was an RBI machine for Dunedin.

It was a rough start to 2025 for the affiliates. No wins and five losses.

The first road trip, ten games in ten days, kicks off in the borough of Queens.

Whoops!

Buffalo 3 Memphis 15

"First in war, first in peace, last in the American League."

Boy, those were the days.
