Minor League Games from 5/5/2023. Good outing for Beeter at AA. Could we see another Calhoun in Bronx soon?

AAA: SWB (12-19) lost 4-1.

With the Yanks’ LF problems (see my post on last night’s Yankees game) could the Yanks soon be turning to Kole Calhoun for LF? The 35-year-old has mostly been a RF in his career, but the Yanks could turn to this lefty hitting OF to see if anything is left in his tank.

Minor League Report. The Martian finally gets his 1st HR of season.

AAA: SWB (7-9) lost 6-0. What is concerning is that Vasquez is the top pitching prospect at AAA. For those concerned about Clarke Schmidt’s problems, who would replace Schmidt in the rotation? The other top pitcher prospects (starters) are at AA. And Vasquez is struggling just like Schmidt is. Deivi Garcia has been moved to the bullpen. Rodon and Sevy need to get healthy and back fast.
