May 31st-June 6th
May 31st, 2027: Orioles righty Tyrese Sinkfield is out for the year with a torn labrum. The former 2nd overall pick in 2021 is likely a starter, but htye were using him as a closer, where he tallied 12 saves and 34 strikeouts in 26 innings with a 3.12 ERA.
We dropped a spot to 5th in the Power Rakings, and are currently 31-19 and 3 games out of first.
We opened the first of two in Tampa with Luis Ardon (3-1, 2.79 ERA, 1.24 WHIP) facing Jacob Faria (4-3, 3.29 ERA, 1.12 WHIP). Ardon pitched great, and we topped the struggling defending champions 4-1.
Ardon tossed 8 innings with just 4 hits, a run, and a walk to go with 3 strikeotus. Alpha Quivers pitched the 9th, earning the save with a hit and strikeout.
Isaac Nunez was 2-for-3 with a solo homer, walk, and 2 RBI's. Daylen Lile was 1-for-3 with a walk, 2 runs, and 2 steals. Juan Ramirez was 1-for-4 with a double, steal, and RBI. Chris Reid was 1-for-4 with a double and run scored.
Phillies CF Ernesto Arambula increased his hit streak to 20 games.
June 1st, 2027: Down in AAA, RF Palban Gamboa was named Batter of the Month. He hit .358 with 9 homers and 30 RBI's.
In Greensboro, 3B Juan Sagarra was named South Atlantic Batter of the Month. He hit .330 with a homer and 19 RBI's. His teammate RHP Jamie Casaday was Pitcher of the Month, going 5-1 with a 2.04 ERA in 35.1 innings with 41 strikeouts.
Arizona extended LHP Jared Miller 2-years at $4,640,000 per year. He's spent his whole career in Arizona, and didn't want to hit the open market. This year, he's allowed just 1 run in 22.2 innings (0.40) with a 0.53 WHIP and 32 strikeouts to just 6 walks.
We looked to finish the Tampa portion of the Florida series with Steve Paustian (3-3, 4.33 ERA, 1.46 WHIP) facing former Marlin minor leaguer Mitchell White (2-5, 2.14 ERA, 0.89 WHIP). Paustian was brilliant, and we shut them out 8-0.
Isaac Nunez left with a bruised shin after getting hit by a pitch. He'll miss about 4 days, but will be able to play through it. He was 1-for-2 with a run scored, steal, and the hut by pitch.
Paustian allowed just 1 hit in 7 innings with 4 walks and 6 strikeouts. Riley Ferrell tossed 2 perfect innings with 2 strikeouts.
Chris Reird was 4-for-5 with a double and 3 RBI's. Deshawn Hardamon was 2-for-4 with a run scored, RBI, and steal. Daylen Lile was 2-for-4 with 2 runs, a walk, and solo homer. Juan Ramirez was 2-for-5 with 2 runs scored. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-4 with 2 runs, a walk, and RBI.
Arambula's hit streak was ended at 20.
We're headed south to Miami, and we'll see Nehemiah Adeniran (former Marlin 1st Rounder Ken Adeniran's brother) make his season debut and Brendan McKay (2-2, 2.51 ERA).
June 2nd, 2027: Back at home, Devon Peterson (5-2, 5.27 ERA, 1.50 WHIP) took on Nehemiah Adeniran. The Rays offense was too much, and they beat us 9-5.
Peterson went 5.2 innings with 10 hits, 7 runs (4 earned), a walk, and 2 strikeouts. Matt Hogan allowed 2 runs in 0.2 innings off a hit, walk, and strikeout.
Chris Reid went 2-for-4 with a double and 2 RBI's. Jon Reid was 2-for-4 with 2 RBI's. Deshawn Hardamon was 1-for-4 with a run scored and double. Daylen Lile was 1-for-5 with a double and run scored. Peterson was 1-for-2.
Reds 1B Jamie Zerger launched three homers in a 9-4 win over the Indians. Astros SS Tyler Freeman was 5-for-6 in a 16-1 win over the Rockies.
June 3rd, 2027: We looked to split the home part and win the Florida series with Igancio Hinojos (1-0, 4.19 ERA, 1.19 WHIP) taking on Brendan McKay (2-2, 2.51 ERA, 1.17 WHIP). Tied at 1 after 9 innings, Chris Reid hit a walkoff two-run homer off Keegan Akin, and we won the finale 3-1.
Two thirds of my outfield left with day-to-day injuries. Daylen Lile sprained his ankle and Jarred Kelenic had back tightness. Both can play through it.
Hinojos tossed 6 innings with 5 hits, a run, 3 walks, and 9 strikeouts. The rest of the pen combined for 5 innings with 4 hits, a walk, and 2 strikeouts.
Reid was 2-for-3 with 2 runs, 2 walks, 2 RBI's, the homer, and a double. Mac Horvath was 2-for-5 with a double. Kelenic was 2-for-5 with a steal. Nunez was 2-for-5.
Dodgers SP Luis Severino tossed a 1-hit shutout in a 7-0 win over the Angels.
We'll stay home with the Mets coming to town for three. We'll see Livio Montella (2-4, 4.03 ERA), Eric Walker (3-2, 4.75 ERA), and Chandler Ferguson (0-0, 2.95 ERA).
June 4th, 2027: We opened the Mets series with Jake Florence (4-3, 3.53 ERA, 1.21 WHIP) taking on Livio Montella (2-4, 4.03 ERA, 1.16 WHIP). The pitching was great, and we won the opener 4-1.
Florence went 8 innings with 5 hits, a run, 3 walks, and 5 strikeouts. Alpha Quivers got the save, an inning with 2 hits.
Matt Hogan was 2-for-3 with an RBI and walk. Chris Reid was 1-for-3 with a two run homer. Deshawn Hardamon was 1-for-4 with a double and run scored. Juan Ramirez was 1-for-4 with a double and RBI. Jon Reid was 1-for-3 with a hit by pitch and run scored. Mac Horvath was 1-for-3 with a walk and run scored. Jake Taylor was 1-for-3 with a walk.
June 5th, 2027: The middle game saw Luis Ardon (4-1, 2.56 ERA, 1.15 WHIP) take on Eric Walker (3-2, 4.75 ERA, 1.44 WHIP). It wasn't the pitching of yesterday's game, and the Mets evened the series with a 7-5 win.
Cho-yeong Hyoun and Tylor Megill both left with day-to-day injuries. I'll place Megill on the DL with a sprained ankle, and will likely send him on a long rehab assignment after.
Ardon allowed 4 runs in 3 innings with 4 hits, 2 walks, and 2 strikeouts. Megill was charged with 2 runs off 2 hits and a walk while getting just 1 out. Jarred Kelenic tossed 2 innings with 3 hits, a run, walk, and 2 strikeouts.
Kelenic hit for himself, and launched a solo homer in the 5th. Eric Kisela was 1-for-3 with a three run homer and a walk. Jon Reid was 1-for-4 with a double and run scored. Mac Horvath was 1-for-3 with a walk and run scored. Daylen Lile was 2-for-5 with an RBI double. Thomas Dillard was 1-for-4 with a double.
June 6th, 2027: I recalled Joseph Jarneski from AAA to replace Megill.
Fan vote update: Dillard 2nd. Kelenic 2nd. Quivers 3rd.
The Yankees will be without C Shea Langeliers for the rest of the year. One of the better catchers in the game, he was hitting .273 with a homer and 13 RBI's.
The Astros acquired LHP Joe nelsen and RHP Takeji Nakao from the White Sox for RHP Chris Brimmer. it's an even enough deal.
We looked to win the rubber match with Steve Paustian (4-3, 3.88 ERA, 1.38 WHIP) taking on Chandler Ferguson (0-0, 2.95 ERA, 1.59 WHIP) who's making just his 3rd start (he's made 14 relief appearences). It was an all-around good performance, and we won the finale 5-2.
Paustian went 7 innings with 3 htis, a run, a walk, and 3 strikeouts. Riley Ferrell and Danny Niewald got holds before Alpha Quivers picked up the save. Ferrell allowed a run and 3 hits in a third of an inning.
