[Heyward]

Touki Toussaint rain shortened start tonight... 5 shutout innings, 1 hit, 2 walks, 2 K's.

With home runs in such short supply this year, worth mention that former Braves teen draft pick, Brandon Drury, has a combined total of 26 home runs in AA and AAA and is currently hitting .372 in the PCL. He's still only 22.

[KB21]

Maybe Arizona will trade Drury for Terdoslavich.

Max Povse got ROCKED today!! He's a guy with great stuff that will likely end up in the bull pen because he has poor command of his pitches.

Hot garbage. Just like Stewart said.

This is not true. He did have 23 last year and has 3 this year...but 19 of his HR last year came in A+. He hit 4 in 105 AB in AA last year and has hit 3 in 316 combined AB this year. Just saying. He's a good prospect, certainly, but his ISO so far in AA/AAA is about .150; solid, not phenomenal.

D-backs 3B Brandon Drury, Triple-A Reno: 4-for-5, 3 2B, RBI, 2 R -- At this rate, Brandon Drury could end up leading the Pacific Coast League in a few offensive categories despite not landing in Triple-A until June 23. The 22-year-old third baseman has notched 22 total bases in his first 12 games with the Aces, and he's batting .372 (16-for-43). He's also walked six times since his promotion, and struck out only seven times. Friday's three two-baggers give him 26 on the year, with 20 coming over 67 games for Double-A Mobile.

Obviously, I misread the last sentence. It's doubles he's piling up, not homers. Sorry!
