Dan Slania RHP- 7 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 7 K's.  ERA= 0.69.

-Looks like Big Dan switched places with Andrew Suarez.  PCL is a tough league to pitch in.

High A Visalia Rawhide whipped the San Jose Giants 8-2:

Ryan Howard SS- 3 for 5.  BA= .326.
Jonah Arenado 3B- 2 for 4.  BA= .262.
Michael Cederoth RHP- 3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

-Not sure why Cederoth was available but he's a really interesting pickup for the Giants.

Low A Augusta Greenjackets beat the Asheville Tourists 7-2:

Brandon Van Horn SS- 3 for 5, SB(7).  BA= .244.
Kelvin Beltre 2B- 3 for 3, 2B, BB.  BA= .288.

Caleb Baragar LHP- 8 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 4.47.

-Van Horn's reputation is an excellent fielding/no stick SS.  If he's figuring it out at the plate, he could be an interesting prospect.
-After hitting a 3-game rough patch 5/20-6/4, Baragar recovered to allow just 2 ER in 15 IP over his next 2 starts.
