Being outscored in the early games 19-6. Looks like 3 losses.

Raylin Heredia was a second tier signing in 2021 for $300K out of the Dominican (CF, 6'0, 174). Still 18 but he seems to have some power. HR today but also 2 2B and 3 3B in 24 AB before today.

Also last week:

Signed way back in 2019 but a late signing in the 2018 J2 class for low dollars presumably. Pitched first in 2021 at age 20 in the DSL (pitched well but way too old). Now at FCL at age 21.

NPG with a 2-run bomb also.

Rojas has been hitting better lately. And still doing this:

Johan Rojas is fast. 31 for 31 on the bases now but watch this all the way through! pic.twitter.com/mrWhnt01qR

Wow...he doesn't look as fast as Quinn, but I expect he gets a better jump given the 31 for 31. To be fair, the pitcher he was facing this time was very slow to the plate. And the third to home segment was really an aggressive play, very smart given he made it easily.
