A mixed night on the farm as New Hampshire scored more runs than the other three affiliates combined as the Junior Jays finished 2-2.
April generally gives us a good reason or two to scratch our heads.

The farm system was perfect last night, as the affiliates won three games and Las Vegas had the day off. None of the affiliates gave up more than two runs, but none of the starters made it out of the sixth inning.
Due to time constraints and being on the road, this will be quick. The affiliates went 3-1 on the night and one of the Jays top pitching prospects gets his first professional win.
Today's subject of the POTD is Kenny Wilson. Wilson is off to a good start in 2010 after spending a lot of 2009 on the DL.

The Jays played their wildest game of the year, and must have made AA jealous sitting up there in his box and not getting in on the action. He felt the itchy trigger finger, and after the game, the club designated
Merkin Valdez and
Jeremy Accardo for assignment, to be replaced by

After Monday's ridiculous slugfest, the Jays shuffled the bullpen chairs a little.
There was quite a bit of rain in the minor leagues on Monday night. None of it affected the Blue Jays' affiliates. What did affect the affiliates, however, was the absence of games on the schedule. Las Vegas was the only affiliate in action, and they lost what must have been a pretty boring game, especially after Sunday´s thriller.
I suppose it's nice that at least one thing around here is just like 1993...
Eric Thames has been hitting well recently after a slow start. Thames has played well when he has been healthy for the Jays, the key is staying healthy.

Quick now, how many AL hitters with 30+PA this year are younger than Travis Snider?
Answer: 1 - Elvis Andrus.
How many with at least 1 PA this year? Answer- still only one.
It's entirely possible that the most exciting and entertaining thing to happen in Sin City today was the baseball game.
Kyle Drabek has his best start of the season leading New Hampshire to the win. Brad Mills made one mistake and that was enough to lose 2-1. Lansing won in extra innings while Dunedin were easily beaten.
Bobby Ray had a rough night and Las Vegas lost; Luis Perez was human and New Hampshire lost; Dunedin had to use a committee of pitchers and they lost. Ryan Shopshire pitched well for Lansing and the Luggies were the only winners on the farm. Brett Wallace and JP Arencibia went deep. Jon Talley and Tyler Pastornicky continued to hit well for Dunedin. Brad McElroy and AJ Jimenez led the Luggies hitters.

What did Brett Cecil do to deserve this?
