Minor League Game thread – 2026 Week 2

[Bob Reed]

“Crooks with another HR and 3 RBI hitting .375, Blaze Jordan with 2 more hits up to .467, Bryan Torres hitting .400 so far, Prieto also off to a good start at .452. Also, Bernal hitting .310.

Good start from Dobbins 5 1/3, 1 earned, 5 hits and 7 K’s.”

Thanks for the updates, Ghost. (Dobbins’ “earned” run only came about as an eventual byproduct of a strikeout/wild pitch. If not for the wild pitch, a run never scores against him — so it’s certainly not earned, in spirit.)

Yhoiker Fajardo with a nice debut for Peoria. Across 4.2 innings and 71 pitches, he permitted 5 hits, 1 run, no walks, and fanned 4. No homers, of course. Hasn’t allowed a homer to the last 330 batters, something like that. Our pitching prospect with the best chance to eventually be a #1/2 starter, in my estimation. Him or Jurry.

I’d bet ya a wooden nickel they have Peete changing several things currently

They would have to. Peete hit .217 with a 30% K rate over 500+ PAs in high A last year. Hopefully he can retain the power.

Van Dyke pitched very well today. He might be an under the radar prospect. Maybe an innings eater.
