JoJo getting the start instead of Medina?

[andyb]

It does list Medina though I think JoJo's last start was cut short by rain, so who knows? I think JoJo has turned the corner at AA. That does not mean he is beyond last year of course. Just that whatever happened seems to have been corrected and hopefully he'll be ready for AAA next time.

[baseballoldie]

Looks like Reading initially posted the wrong starting pitcher on their Twitter - Medina is pitching

[kmc1019]

Geez....would have been better if Medina was not pitching today. He is seemingly trying to rival Damon Jones' effort yesterday. Yuck.

[baseballoldie]

Yep, really rough day for Medina.

[Squire]

Stott with single, homer so far.

[allentown]

Not a great day on the farm. Medina throws batting practice, Gowdy gives up 3 BB, 6 hits, and 3 runs in 4 IP. Hits happen; 3 walks in 4 IP is bad.

[andyb]

Gowdy seems to have hit a physical wall. Might be time to shut him down till Instructional League.

[Jeff05]

Overall, not a particularly good day for Reading. I don't think Henri Lartigue has enough (any?) pitches to make it as an RP. On a more positive note, Moniak has 2H (HR, 2B) and 2BB.

[nycphils]

Moniak has about 135 ABs in June/July with about a .900 OPS...if he can keep that up, even at Reading that would be a nice surprise...

[bigegypt0417]

Logan O'hoppe is starting to hit.

350 or so over his last 10 games.

[phillychuck]

O'Hoppe has clearly figured something out! Stott with 2 hits and another HR. On a day when every minor league team took it on the chin there were some good individual stories...Moniak, Stott, O'Hoppe, Grullon (3 hits, 2 2Bs), Listi (2 hits), Marchan (2 hits), Stobbe (HR (his 9th), 2 HBP).

[Jeff05]

It is worth noting that Moniak's OBP and SLG are slightly higher away from home. His splits so far this season,

Home .324 .432
Away .339 .467

[phillychuck]

I seem to remember that lefties don't get as much a boost from First Energy Park as righties do...Ruff, Rizzotti, Willie Darkis (1983), Marlon Byrd, Travis Chapman, etc. all righties. Hoskins and Cozens would hit it out of Yellowstone...

[LoneStarPhan]

Moniak goes 2 for 2 (double, homer) with two walks. Otherwise, not much good with Reading today.

[bigegypt0417]

One big improvement for moniak is from 6/1 to now he's struck out 28 times and walked 20.

April and may it was 47 k's and 8 walks.

That has been huge.
