Jeffrey
Paternostro’s weekly Don’t
Scout the Statline is up for BP and it is a good read, as expected from
Jeff. I’m not saying that just because he used one of my tweets, but because he
has good points on Amed Rosario, Luis Guillorme, and the pair of Fireflies
starters off to ridiculous starts: Merandy Gonzalez and Jordan Humphreys.
Brandon Nimmo went 0-2 with two walks while playing all 9 innings in CF during his
second rehab appearance.
Tim
Tebow has a good week at the plate and suddenly
everyone starts
speculating about
a possible promotion
to the next minor league
level. Look, he had one good week at the plate, but he still looks more like a
pitcher at the plate than a hitter. He has power in his stroke, which is why
the Mets are interested, but you can’t expect him to become Major League ready
in under a season. Just because he’s 29 doesn’t mean the Mets will or should rush
him – they know how to develop players, trust the #Process. If the Mets and
Tebow are serious about Tim Tebow the baseball player, then they’ll take their
time at each level and not react to one week of good (or bad) play. That
doesn’t mean I expect him to still be playing for Columbia when he turns 30 in
August, but I will be surprised if he has even reached Double-A by then.

Post-game notes: Desmond
Lindsay hit a homerun for the second straight game, reached base three times
for the second straight game, and now has a modest 4-game hit streak (Tebow
also picked up a hit for a fourth straight game).
The homer for Paez was his 6th
XBH over his last 8 games: 3 doubles, 1 triple, and 2 homers, which is good for
a .393 ISO.
@Astromets31 @Mets @ColaFireflies Tough time getting any secondaries over. Hickory RH hitters sat over plate and hit fball where pitched.— Mark Parker (@CrawdadsBeat) April 29, 2017
Minors MVP of the Day
– Gotta go with Champ Stuart, who has been running amok recently.
Minors Cy of the Day
– With no good starts again, this nod goes to Adonis Uceta for his work out of the Cola pen.
