Game 1:
Game 2:
Transaction: Brandon Lowe suffered a herniated disc in his back in this game and will miss a week, so since we're thin at MI he went on the IL and we purchased the contract of 2B prospect
Brayden Taylor, our first-round pick in 2023. Also,
Drew Rasmussen comes off the IL to start the series finale and
Kevin Kelly is optioned back to Durham.
Game 3:
Fresh off the IL Rasmussen leaves in the first inning, this time with a sore ankle that won't keep him from his next start.
Did not have Packy Naughton pitching for the Rockies and leading MLB with an 0.30 ERA on my bingo card.
