I think he took a line drive off of the leg. I haven’t heard any details to the extent of the injury. Hopefully he doesn’t go on the IL. He has been pitching rather well.
The #stlcards system was 2-3 on Wed., as the two Jupiter-based teams shut out the Mets over 18 innings. TCN’s Players of the Day are the @GoPBCardinals, which scored 17 runs while shutting out St. Lucie on one hit. The offense was led by Yordalin Peña, Jonathan Mejía, Ryan… pic.twitter.com/g2vwMLXuiF

Mathews had another really good start. This one was better strike% and first pitch strike rate as well. 52.5 first pitch strike % and an overall strike rate of 65.8%. He walked the first batter and seemed to settle in after that.
Maybe he has put it together. I would like to see him have another start or 2 of the higher strike rate and lower walk rate. Maybe come July he can make just first MLB start.
Is the Baltimore AAA team simply Cardinals expats? Tommy Pham, Michael Siani, Jose Barrero, and Bryan Ramos (a week counts right?) were in their starting lineup.
The #stlcards system was 4-3 on Thursday. TCN’s Player of the Day, UT Noah Mendlinger, had four hits and five RBI across Memphis' DH sweep, including his first AAA home run.

Is Emmanuel Luna nursing an injury? He hasn’t played as often and when he does gets pinch hit for. Not playing today so that is 6 of 10 games. It seems like he is the guy you would want in the lineup daily.
The other top international signing Carrion hasnt played yet either and I’m guessing he is hurt.
The #stlcards system was 1-5 on Saturday. TCN’s Player of the Day, DSL OF Luis Estrella, crushed a grand slam, his first career HR, in a five-hit, five-RBI game. Other standouts: Domenic Picone, Trey Paige, Tre Richardson III, Jesús Báez, Andrew Bolívar and Michael Cordero.… pic.twitter.com/eox9qXosMQ

Gorman hasn’t appeared in a game with Memphis yet. (The Redbirds site doesn’t even show him on their roster). I wonder if he detoured to the Jupiter complex, or somewhere else.
I thought that previous post didn’t take so I re-posted, but I had put it on a different thread. Not trying to spam everyone.

They sent him to super secret hitting school. I can’t find where I read it, but they were doing individual swing mechanics instruction or whatever you call it without playing in games for some unspecified period of time.
Didn’t they invest in a space age virtual reality hitting experience booth at the complex? I can imagine Gormy in there, surrounded by green screens, and covered with sensors, so his biomechanics can be updated to the latest rev. You never know.
Anyone following Springfield must have noticed the turn around of Dakota Harris since the last flip of the calendar. He entered this month batting .201 and is up to .240, this by batting .389 in June. His OPS is 1.228 this month.
On the mound how about Mathews (MEM). His first two GSs in June = 79 & 74.
Fans in Memphis are missing Jordan no doubt.
Thanks for mentioning Harris. I try to follow AA and AAA pretty good but missed his resurgence. I did notice Rainiel had a good game at the dish, which is a relief, but it needs to continue. I like what we have on the ML roster right now, but we need promising guys to push up and compete for those roster slots so we can look to upgrade or trade for what we need, like pitching.
Gorman may not see any game action for awhile. I read somewhere that Bloom’s hired hitting gurus were working one on one with him in some isolated location. Supposedly the same wizards who turned Walker around. Good luck gentlemen.
The #stlcards system was 1-3 on Sunday. TCN’s Player of the Day, Memphis’s Bligh Madris, was 2-for-3 with a walk and a HR for three RBI.

Rainiel had one heck of a week. Great to see and hopefully he has made some adjustments to the higher pitching quality and can keep it up.
It’s interesting that Dutkanych and Graham are piggybacking each other. Both recovering from Tommy John surgery one year apart. Scouting reports were good in both of them prior to them getting drafted. I’d like to see them pitch. The numbers indicate that they both give up a lot of homers for the small sample size. Dutkanych walks too many. Both also strike out a large percentage of batters. They would be in my top 50.
