Pawtucket W 14-0
Ryan Kalish: 0-0, BB
-Kalish hurt his shoulder making a diving catch. Apparently the Red Sox don't think it's serious, but there's no word on the X-rays yet.
Nate Spears: 1-4, HR, K
Yamaico Navarro: 1-6, 2 K
-There's speculation that Navarro will be on his way to Los Angeles in case Youkilis or Pedroia are feeling sub-par tomorrow. If this is the case, Navarro has done pretty much everything needed to earn the call, batting .315/.422/.444 in 54 at bats so far with a 10:10 K:BB.
Josh Reddick: 0-3, 3 BB, 2 K, POCS
-Who is this and what have they done with Josh Reddick?
Lars Anderson: 3-5, BB, K
-Quietly hitting .320 on the season.
Juan Carlos Linares: 1-4, 2B, BB, 2 K
Daniel Nava: 1-2, 3 BB
Mike McKenry: 0-2, 3 BB, K
Jose Iglesias: 2-5
The rare solid game for Lavarnway after the jump. Here's hoping it starts a trend and we get our favorite semi-catcher back!
Portland W 5-1
Che-Hsuan Lin: 1-3, BB, SB
Alex Hassan: 1-3, 2B, BB
Tim Federowicz: 2-4
Ryan Lavarnway: 1-3, BB, K
Will Middlebrooks: 0-3, BB, E
Brock Huntzinger: 5 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 1 HR
Salem L 2-5
Jeremy Hazelbaker: 0-4
-And the legend falls flat.
Pete Hissey: 1-4
Kolbrin Vitek: 3-4, 2B, 2 E
-And a new legend emerges! If perhaps not in the field. Vitek is now 11-for-17 over his last four games.
Reynaldo Rodriguez: 0-2, 2 BB
Michael Almanzar: 1-4
Derrik Gibson: 0-2, 2 BB, K
Kendal Volz: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K
Greenville L 3-5
Felix Sanchez: 0-4, 4 K
-I'm about ready to close this particular book for the time being. . .
Bryce Brentz: 1-4, 2B, 3 K, A
Miles Head: 0-4
Brandon Jacobs: 2-3, 2B, BB, K, 2 SB
-It's hard to imagine Jacobs is long for Greenville. But if something could hold him down, it's all of those strikeouts. . .
Lucas LeBlanc: 0-4, 2 K
Sean Coyle: 1-3, HR, K
-Coyle is sitting on a bizarre line right now at .139/.407/.361. No surprise, then, that his BABIP is an amazing .150. Think about that: A .407 OBP...with a .150 BABIP. Even with all the acclaim, Coyle is proving to be one of the more underrated draft picks.
David Renfroe: 0-3, K
