DSL White with a combined no-hitter (7-inning, 1 run variety).
Hernandez and Diaz did the job for the White squad!
The run scored on a walk, SB, SB+throwing error.
Hernandez had a 0.72 ERA last year and still did not get promoted stateside. He may not be a top prospect but he probably should be in FCL now.
Another Crawford mention here. He won't be in Clearwater this weekend as he (and Abel) are at the future's game.
Andrew Painter is undergoing testing for right elbow discomfort. Rob Thomson said he could not reveal what the testing is, and he is not sure when the results will be available.— Todd Zolecki ( @ToddZolecki ) July 7, 2023

Boras is involved with this and is trying to protect his client but it's getting obvious that the elbow is damaged and probably to the point where TJ is necessary. Most likely that should have been the assessment back in March. Painter has had a chance to see if it would go away through non surgical methods. That hasn't worked. Now it's in Painter's best interest to get it done so that he can start the rehab and get back on the road to the show.
Yeah, I don't think we'll see Painter this year and if he has to get TJ surgery, we won't see him for next year, except for maybe a September call up. Now we'll see at the deadline if DD makes a move for a pitcher. Abel might be a September call up this year, or maybe McGrarry
Neither of them seem ready. And you only get two September call-ups, and still can't have more than 14 pitchers. Nelson and Bellati are probably still better choices if they need a little more in the bullpen in September (depends on Song of course). Adding a depth starter still probably not a bad idea, injuries do happen.
