Allen Craig's brief slump is put to an emphatic end, and Jackie Bradley Jr. can do little wrong in the minors. The rest of the Paw Sox lineup is by-and-large struggling this season, but the players who are trying to get back to the Majors rather than make the jump for the first time are by-and-large killing it.
As for Brian Johnson...well, this was a really strange outing. His line reads better than it is in some regards since he also hit two batters in the four-run fifth inning that really cost him, but of course he should have been out of the inning already at that point with Marrero's error costing him a leadoff baserunner. Of course, Johnson has probably earned the benefit of the doubt by this point with that ERA still sitting at 2.51 two months into the season.
Portland L 7-8
Carlos Asuaje: 1-4, 2B
Portland W 4-3 (In 11)
Carlos Asuaje: 1-6
It's been a pretty miserable start to June for arguably the only interesting position player in Portland. A .567 OPS on the month has dragged his season numbers down a fair bit, and his start wasn't really strong enough to absorb much more of a hit than it has.
Salem W 4-2
Manuel Margot: 3-4
Sam Travis: 4-4, 2B, HR
Wendell Rijo: 0-4, K
Salem W 1-0
Manuel Margot: 0-3
Sam Travis: 0-3, BB, 2 K
Ty Buttrey: 5 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 5 K
Well, Saturday's game didn't really keep up the narratives from Friday's, but even with the 0-for, Sam Travis is hitting .312
Greenville W 10-8
Rafael Devers: 1-4, K
Nick Longhi: 1-3, BB
Yoan Moncada: 1-3, 2B, BB
Javier Guerra: 2-4, 2 HR
Michael Chavis: 1-3, 2B, BB, K
Greenville L 2-4
Nick Longhi: 0-3, BB, K
Yoan Moncada: 0-3, BB, 2 K
Javier Guerra: 0-3, BB
Michael Chavis: 0-3, BB, K
Michael Kopech: 3 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 3 K
Seven homers now for Javier Guerra, who's even showing some improvement in the strikeout category to start June. The thing is, while Guerra was certainly considered a breakout candidate coming into this year, with some hope that there was power in his future, but I don't think anyone quite had this in mind.
