Memphis vs. Round Rock (DH) – Alex Reyes, Austin Gomber
Springfield at NW Arkansas – Williams Perez
Palm Beach vs. St. Lucie (DH) – Johan Oviedo, TBA
Peoria at Burlington – Kyle LeahyThe DSL schedules are out for 2019 and it reminds me how much I hate unbalanced schedules.
Boca Chica North East – 6 teams; 72 games
Boca Chica San Pedro – 8 teams; 72 games
Boca Chica Baseball City – 6 teams; 72 games
Boca Chica North West – 8 teams; 72 games
Boca Chica North – 8 teams; 72 games
Boca Chica South – 9 teams; 64 gamesCabrera is Monday’s scheduled starter for Memphis. My guess is that Arauz is the long man, but we will see…
BHC, the DSL schedule is a practical matter. While the Dominican Republic may seem small to us, their travel infrastructure is not to our standards. The divisions are set up (just like in the GCL) to keep travel down. That is a big reason why the divisions are imbalanced. It depends on the locations of the various academies. Another is that not every organization has two teams, which also complicates matters. The primary focus is player development, not winning titles.

With Memphis, #stlcards RHP Alex Reyes finishes his three inning start with 40 pitches total – 15, 8, 17. One hit, one walk, four strikeouts on 96-97 mph fastball, slider and changeup. Looked like a very successful first start. Rehabber Luke Gregerson in for the fourth inning. pic.twitter.com/BRB89zjuiQ

As predicted, Harold Arauz has followed Gregerson. I would guess they’d like him to take the final three innings.
#stlcards rehabbing RHR Luke Gregerson allowed one hit in a scoreless inning for Memphis. Across three stops, the RHR has six straight scoreless one-inning outings after yielding one run his first time out, which was 2 1/2 weeks ago for Palm Beach. pic.twitter.com/sXC4H7kjg3

Going into the final inning, Memphis had a four run lead. Among them, Arauz, Fasola and Shreve allowed nine runs. Unless the Redbirds can come back in the home half, Fasola will take the painful loss.
Memphis’ bullpen is killing that team. Yikes.
On another note one has to wonder how much longer the Cardinals are going to keep playing Nick Plummer. Sure the money has been spent but to be frank, he stinks. Putrid. In 15 games this season he’s hitting .093/.259/.209 and for his 5 year career he’s hitting .202/.352/.317. At some point you just gotta admit he’s a bust and he’s not gonna make it. At this point he seems to be getting quality playing time that could be used for other prospects. I’m not big on giving up on young players (he’s only 22) but he hasn’t done anything in his 4 actual season to make me (or anyone) think he’s going to succeed.
The #stlcards system was 2-4 on Saturday as Palm Beach and Memphis split doubleheaders. Our Player of the Day is Redbirds left-hander Austin Gomber, who tossed a seven-inning complete game shutout on three hits and with six strikeouts. Just one game today. https://t.co/8YonPm2L61 pic.twitter.com/DrR01fdyIV
