    Elian Rodriguez made his pro debut for the DSL Orange team yesterday morning. Rodriguez is the Cuban who signed for $1.9 million on the last day of the 2016-17 IFA period.

    This Armenteros Cuban righty looks like a beast! He may be called up from AAA pretty soon here. I say get him up here and see what he can do. Give him a few games in AAA and then call his ass up.

    Buies Creek leads 2-1 in the 6th. Matt Bower is now in for Alcala. Yordan Alvarez went 1-2 before getting pulled in the 4th.

    I noticed Alvarez left the game after stealing 2nd. Hope he is okay.

    Anyone know why Alvarez left the game?

    Cionel Perez @ Burlington: 6 IP, 5 H (3-R HR allowed), 3 ER, 2 BB, 6 K

    The 3-run homer came in his last inning of work and gave Burlington a 3-2 lead. Chuckie Robinson homered (8) to drive in the two Quad Cities runs.

    Matt Ruppenthal made his pro debut with Tri-City: 1.1 IP, 2 H, 3 K

    Ruppenthal was the Astros' 17th-round pick out of Vanderbilt last month.

    Gilberto Celestino hit his 1st HR of the season for Greeneville. He's probably my favorite position player prospect in the system.

    This means nothing, and it's just a pic in a moment, but I really like that stride. The W.

    Buies Creek RHP Nick Hernandez last allowed a run on April 29. He's made 17 consecutive scoreless appearances since.

    Yoanys Quiala has really busted out this year. He threw 4.1 scoreless innings last night, allowing 3 hits and striking out 3.

    Quiala, a Cuban, signed for a little under $800K towards the end of the 2014-15 IFA period. His fastball has reached 97 and he also has three off-speed offerings, including a potentially plus slider.

    Here are his numbers between Buies Creek and Corpus this season:

    15 appearances (9 starts), 6-1, 2.13 ERA, 71.2 IP, 49 H (4 HR allowed), 19 R (17 ER), 14 BB, 71 K, 0.88 WHIP, .189 opponent average

    Yep. Quiala definitely has moved into that 2nd tier of pitching prospects, and if he has a stellar 2nd half in Corpus he will be one of those fringe Top 100 guys.
