MINOR LEAGUE GAME SUMMARIES

* Triple-A Norfolk second baseman Connor Norby’s 19th home run was a grand slam. Josh Lester hit his 23rd homer. Jackson Holliday singled three times and walked, and he’s slashing .450/.542/.650 during a five-game hitting streak.

Norby’s 157 hits lead the International League and his 98 runs are second.

From Roch ……

 

Norby now has an .824 OPS at AAA, I’m saying he’s done all he can do there. I think he needs to be promoted or brought up next season. 
 

It will be interesting to see if they trade or move on from Mateo and Urias. I know we have similar problems with Ortiz and Mayo is close as well. Both have .885 OPS at AAA

Norby with another grand slam tonight - 20 homers and 89 RBI. If he keeps this up during the weekend, he could end up with 100 RBI. I hope we give him a shot to win a job as DH/backup outfielder and 2B.

Saw his slam in Buffalo tonight. Impressive, he looked good. Jackson another couple hits. Baker still sucks.

A very nice season and he has been a very durable player up to this point.    Only turned 23 in June.
