5/11 Minor League Report! Sanchez, Stoner!

New Orleans 5, Sacratomatoe 6

Joselo Diaz made his first start in 13 days, and it went about as well as his last one. He lasted 3 innings today, surrendering 5 runs on 4 hits and 5 walks, he's now walked 23 in 31.1 innings. Tim McNab, Nate Field and Carlos Muniz delievered 6 innings of shutout relief, giving the Zs a chance to come back and tie, but then Muniz allowed his first run of the season (in the 10th) after 17 scoreless, and he took the loss. Most of the offense came from Val Pascucci, who homered and drove in 4. 4 players took 0-fers, Fernando Tatis (0 for 3, 2 BBs, .244), Chris Aguila (0 for 4, BB, .281), Anderson Hernandez (0 for 4, 3 Ks, .197) and Mike Nickeas (0 for 3, BB, .208).

Binghamton 2, Connecticut 1

It was Jose Sanchez today who had a very good start for the Mets, he went 6 innings, allowing 2 hits and a run, and the Mets gave him just enough offense to get his 3rd win of the season. Eude Brito and Eddie Kunz finished off the game, with Kunz picking up his 6th save.

5 Mets had hits, and 3 went hitless (Caleb Stewart (0 for 3, .242), Emmanuel Garcia (0 for 3, BB, K, .187), Saloman Manriquez (0 for 3, K, .204)). Mike Carp didn't play for the 2nd game in a row. He was pulled in the 8th inning of the game on the 8th vs Reading, and has not appeared since.

St. Lucie 5, Fort Myers 7

Very quietly, not with the hype of a Jon Niese or Bobby Parnell, or the "notice factor" of a Angel Calero or Michael Antonini, Tobi Stoner is putting together a very nice first 4 starts for the Mets. He's 1-2, but he's got a 2.66 era, allowed a hit per innings, and has a BB/K ratio of 4/21 in 20.1 innings. He's 23 1/2 years old, a bit old for high A, but if he keeps pitching like this, he should be in Binghamton before too long. Today, he went 6 innings, allowing 5 hits and 2 runs (1 earned), with 1 walk and 5 Ks. Ryan Coultas allowed an unearned run, and then Corey Hoorelbeke allowed 4 runs (2 earned) and 6 hits over his 1.2 innings, taking the loss.

Every regular had a hit for St. Lucie, and Luis Rivera, Lucas Duda and JR Voyles recorded had multi-hit games.
