The first week where all four of the full-season affiliates were playing six-game series yielded a mixed bag of results, with a few hitters having big weeks but several strong performances coming on the pitching side.
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders
Record: 7-8 after losing four of six to the Syracuse Mets
Coming up: 6 games in Minnesota against the St. Paul Saints (Twins) starting on Tuesday, April 18
It was a tough week for RailRiders pitchers, as they gave up 47 runs to the Mets in six games. The starters in particular struggled to hold down Syracuse throughout the week, and only relievers Matt Krook, Barrett Loseke, Nick Ramirez, and James Norwood left the week unscored upon.
