May 17th, 2031: First fan vote update: Mac Horvath ranks 3rd for 1B. Juan Ramirez ranks 3rd for LF. Juan Simental ranks 2nd for CF. Ernie Frye ranks 1st for RF. Esteban Aguirre ranks 1st for SP. Chad Scoles ranks 1st for RP.

The Seattle Pilots were in town as we started a nice homestand. Steve Paustian (2-2, 4.74 ERA, 1.47 WHIP) was on the mound against southpaw Jaquan Pimpton (2-2, 3.97 ERA, 1.37 WHIP). Our offense was held in check, and the guests took the opener 4-2.

Dan-zu Hoong left with an injury...

Paustian went 5.1 innings, allowing 7 hits, 4 runs, and 2 walks while striking out 7. Ken Adeniran tossed 2.2 innings with 4 hits and 2 strikeouts.

Takeshi Kinoshihta was 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles. Juan Simental was 1-for-4 with a solo homer. Gregorio Alvarenga was 1-for-4 with a double and run scored. Paustian was 1-for-2.

May 18th, 2031: We looked to even the series back up with C.J. Jorgensen (2-3, 4.68 ERA, 1.61 WHIP) facing Chad Brandenburg (5-2, 3.86 ERA, 1.20 WHIP). We got our revenge today, and beat the Pilots 7-1.

Jorgensen was dominate, 8 innings with 5 hits, 1 run, 1 walk, and 4 strikeouts. Shiro Hiraki struck out 2 in the 9th.

Jackson Miller was 2-for-3 with a two run homer and walk. Juan Simental was 2-for-4 with a solo homer, double, and 2 runs scored. Gregorio Alvarenga was 2-for-3 with a run scored and walk. Takeshi Kinoshia was 1-for-2 with a walk, sac-fly, and solo homer. Rodolof Solorzano was 1-for-3 with a double, run scored, RBI, and walk. Luis Mora was 2-for-4 with a run scored.

May 19th, 2031: We remained 2nd in the Power Rankings. At 30-14, we have a 3.5 game lead over the Phillies.

Prospect Watch: LF Dan White (AA Jacksonville):

Selected in the 2nd Round in 2025, LF Dan White has worked his way up to AAA as a 23-year-old. Now 24, the lefty was never the highest regarded prospect, but he's really shown his talent in the power and eye departments. A plus-plus home run hitter with plus-plus discipline, White has a dangerous combination for the big leagues. He's not a fast player, and doesn't make the most contact, but he's a plus defender in left and with more practice in right as well. He's having a great season in Jacksonville, hitting .362/.510/.613 with 4 homers and 14 RBI's while walking more times (24) then he struck out (23). There's a lot of young talent in the outfield, but White has enough tools to crack a big league roster.

Juan Ramirez returned to the lineup for the finale as Juan Moya (5-0, 4.09 ERA, 1.34 WHIP) faced Ken Graham (0-6, 6.45 ERA, 1.86 WHIP). It was a tight contest in the rubber match, but we edged the guests 6-5 to take the series.

Maya went 6.2 innings with 8 hits, 5 runs (3 earned), and 6 strikeouts. Juan Razo got the win, tossing 0.2 innings with a walk and 2 strikeouts. Chad Scoles allowed a single, but struck out the side in the 9th for the save.

Gregorio Alvarenga was 2-for-3 with a run scored, RBI, and steal. Rodolfo Solorzano was 2-for-4 with a double, run scored, and 2 RBI's. Pat Hughes was 1-for-4 with a two run homer. Juan Simental was 1-for-3 with 2 runs and a walk.

Phillies 2B Jon Mattheus improved his hit streak to 25 games. Astros 1B Chris Konowitz was5-for-6 in a 13-7 win over the Angels.

The Nationals will come to town for three tomorrow! We'll face Luis Escolastico (1-3, 8.10 ERA), Clint Hinshaw (1-2, 3.67 ERA), and Mike Abrams (0-0, 27.00 ERA).

May 20th, 2031: Hoong was diagnosed with a partially torn labrum, and he'll head to the 60-Day DL. I recalled Luis Nevi from AAA to replace him.

Chad Bradenburg, who was hurt in our game against the Pilots, will miss the rest of the year with a torn ulnar collateral ligament. In 10 starts, "Black Jack" was 5-3 with a 4.40 ERA and 1.29 WHIP.

We opened the Nationals series with Esteban Aguirre (6-0, 1.54 ERA, 0.67 WHIP) facing fellow lefty Luis Escolastico (1-3, 8.10 ERA, 1.85 WHIP). We got 10 hits and took the opener 9-2 behind a strong performance from Aguirre.

He improved to 7-0, tossing 6 innings with 4 htis, 2 runs, 2 walks, and 11 strikeouts. The pen combined for 3 innings with 3 hits and 3 strikeouts.

Juan Ramirez was 2-for-3 with 3 runs, 3 RBI's, hit by pitch, and a home run. Jackson Miller was 2-for-4 with a double and 4 RBI's. Mac Horvath was 2-for-3 with a run scored and walk. Jon Reid was 1-for-4 with a solo homer. Gregorio Alvarenga was 1-for-3 with a double, 2 runs, RBI, and walk. Agurire was 1-for-2 with a sac-bunt.

Roayls 2B Anthony Volpe was 5-for-5 in a 6-2 loss against the Yankees.

May 21st, 2031: We looked to win our fourth straight game with Dursun Erbakan (2-1, 4.87 ERA, 1.45 WHIP) facing former Marlin draft pick Clint Hinshaw (1-2, 3.67 ERA, 1.37 WHIP). We let them tie it at 4 in the 9th with a Wander Franco two run homer, but Luis Mora sent the fans home happy with a walk-off two run shot in the bottom of the 9th.

Erbakan had a shaky start, 4 innings with 7 hits, 2 runs, a walk, and 4 strikeouts. Ken Adeniran tossed 3 perfect innings with 3 strikeouts. Chad Scoles blew the saves, yet got the win, an inning with 3 hits, 2 runs, and 2 strikeouts.

Mora didn't just have one homer, he was 2-for-4 with the walk-off and a solo homer. Mac Horvath was 3-for-3 with a run scored and double. Juan Ramirez was 2-for-4 with a double and RBI. Jon Reid was 1-for-3 with a steal, run scored, and RBI. Ernie Frye was 1-for-4 with an RBI. Juan Simental was 1-for-4 with a run scored.

May 22nd, 2031: Mets CF Pat DeMarco will miss the rest of the year with a broken kneecap. He was hitting .38/.449/.462 in 39 big league at bats.

We looked to finish off the sweep with Steve Paustian (2-3, 4.96 ERA, 1.49 WHIP) facing Chris Dorman (7-2, 3.28 ERA, 1.26 WHIP) who skipped a spot to get the start. In a relatively uneventful game, we finished the sweep with a 5-2 win.

Paustian tossed 6 strong innings with 5 hits, 2 runs, 3 walks, and 3 strikeouts. C.J. LaFever got a hold, 2 innings with a hit and strikeout. Chad Scoles was much better today, getting the save by striking out the side in the 9th.

Pat Hughes was 2-for-4 with a two run homer. Juan Simental was 1-for-2 with 2 runs, 2 walks, a steal, and solo homer. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-3 with a double, RBI, and walk. Juan Ramirez was 1-for-4 with a double and RBI. Luis Mora was 1-for-3 with a walk, steal, and run scored. Jon Reid was 1-for-4 with a run scored.

Jon Mattheus' hit streak was ended at 28 games.

We get tomorrow off before heading to Ohio for three with the Reds!
