The second week of the season was a success for the likes of Syracuse and Brooklyn, who won their series, but not so much for Binghamton and St. Lucie, who lost their series. There were several offensive players, such as Rylan Bannon and Alex Ramírez, who shined for their respective teams, but it was really a week dominated by the pitchers, as it was during the first week of the season. Blade...

Updated Post: April 9 at 5:16 p.m. We’ve kept this thread going updating J.D. Martinez’s status… and this one’s not great. Carlos Mendoza said the DH received a cortisone injection for back tightness and will rest for three to five days. That’s not a great update for a player who’s dealt with back issues in the past. The J.D. Martinez experience will have to...

De La Cruz’s staff is led by bench coach Jeremy...
