Fort Wayne has 11 teenagers on its roster. The average age for a Fort Wayne batter this year, according to baseball-reference.com, has been 19.3. That is the youngest in the league by far. The average age for a Midwest League batter has been 21.3. (Cedar Rapids is second youngest at 20.8. Clinton is oldest at 22.3. South Bend ranks 11th out of 16 at 21.5.) BLACKJACK: The TinCaps are in the midst of a stretch of 21 days in a row with a game. The stretch started Monday, May 14 and continues until a day off on Monday, June 4. The MWL schedules 140 regular season games in 152 days. 260 TO THE SHOW: Former TinCaps outfielder Franmil Reyes hit his first MLB home run on Monday night for the Padres on the road against the Nationals… Reyes, who was with Fort Wayne for all of the 2014 and ‘15 seasons, was leading all of Minor League Baseball in homers this year with 14 at the time of his call-up. Beyond that, the 22-year-old native of the Dominican Republic was slashing .346/.442/.738 this season. A year ago he led San Diego’s minor league system in home runs with 25 at Double-A San Antonio… 2012-13 TinCaps pitcher Justin Hancock made his MLB debut on May 9 as a reliever for the Cubs at Wrigley Field against the Marlins. The 27-year-old righty is from Defiance, Ohio (which is about 45 miles northeast of Parkview Field). Hancock and Reyes have become the 161st and 162nd former Fort Wayne Wizards/TinCaps to reach the bigs. Others to debut so far this season with the Padres: LHP Joey Luchessi (2016) and LHP Eric Lauer (2016). SPORTSCENTER: After a half-dozen appearances on ESPN in 2017, the TinCaps already have appeared on SportsCenter twice so far this season. Jeisson Rosario made a head-first diving catch from center field at home against Beloit on May 3 that made “Top 10” at No. 9 the following morning… On April 21, Esteury Ruiz and Tirso Ornelas were featured on SportsCenter during Kevin Connor’s “K.C.’s Minor League Minute” segment after they both had 3-hit games that included a home run at Parkview Field against Dayton.

But if real development is what they actually achieve, something that is sustainable on an organizational level, it will be done with discipline, patience and stubbornness. At its base level, improvement will be about getting on base. It is too early to draw any conclusions about whether new hitting coach Matt Stairs’ positivity and philosophy of perseverance will make a difference. The Padres have played one series. Three games. That’s one-54th of the season. That’s a sample size about as minuscule as the team’s collective on-base percentage last season. (Or any of the past four seasons.) Statistics such as average or OBP are not distinct indicators at this early juncture. Certainly, the Padres are winless in large part because they have been punchless for stretches in their three games.

In the bottom of the second inning, the television cut to the home dugout at Petco Park. Odrisamer Despaigne, employing a bat wiggle vaguely resembling Gary Sheffield in slow motion, had just flailed at the third pitch he saw, a curveball in the dirt. He'd walked back to the bench, where fellow pitchers Andrew Cashner and Tyson Ross were still chortling at their teammate. Despaigne, who wasn't asked to hit in his native country, was now 0-for-27 since his debut in the majors.

Bryce Miller No one has to tell the Bub’s at the Ballpark staff that the Padres’ sole home weekend series next season against the World Series-qualifying Dodgers is heading for Monterrey, Mexico. MLB announced Monday that the matchup with the seat-filling NL West neighbor to the north, set for May 4-6, is on the move. “Oh yeah, we know,” said Allie Garibay, a manager at Bub’s. “Our GM is very up on all the news. We already talked about staffing that weekend. It’s definitely going to affect us. “It’s going to hit us that weekend.” That’s the pestering complexity of the Padres’ upcoming role in the bright, international bat- and-ball spotlight. For the franchise, it’s a no-brainer. You play a special series in a special place as the nation tunes in. You face your biggest rival with a chance to show your stuff. You lace up the cleats as an ambassador in an emerging market that’s a priority to the commissioner’s office.

  • This Week in Baseball Debuts: the May Edition Mike Soroka, SP Born
    This Week In Baseball Debuts: The May Edition Welcome to the the second issue of the This Week In Baseball Debuts newsletter. Inspired by an episode of Effectively Wild, the purpose of this newsletter is to highlight the MLB debuts that have occurred in the past week. Our goal is to not only inform you about the top prospects you already know but give you some insight into some of the lesser know players who may only be up for a single cup of coffee. This is the second in our two mega newsletters highlighting all debuts that occurred in April and May. After this week it will just be a weekly update that will be sent to your inbox every Sunday. In addition to this newsletter, a version of these profiles will also appear at Banished To The Pen. Mike Soroka, SP Born: August 4th, 1997 (20) Team: Atlanta Braves Debut: May 1, 2018 Throws: Right Bats: Right Soroka made a splash in his major league debut, throwing six solid innings, striking out five, and walking no one. Listed by FanGraphs as the #34 prospect on its Top 100, the 20-year-old righty gets a 55 future grade, with low variance. Kiley McDaniel lists the Canada native and former first-round draft pick as the Braves’ 4th best prospect, with an above-average fastball and slider right now, and the potential to develop an above- average change and above-average command. Over his four-year minor league career, Soroka has shown a propensity to keep his walks down, and keep runs from scoring.
