*All results from games played on Monday, August 17, 2015

Triple-A - Las Vegas 51s (67-56)_______________________________________

LAS VEGAS 5, IOWA 4 (Box)

• 2B Dilson Herrera: 1-5, K
• CF Darrell Ceciliani: 3-5, RBI
• 3B-LF Eric Campbell: 1-4, 2B, BB, 2 E
• LF Kirk Nieuwenhuis: 1-4; It looks like Kirk's rehab has reached the end of the road. I like Kirk, but when he's not good enough to make your 25-man, that's a good thing.
  
• SS Matt Reynolds: 1-4, R, BB
• C Kevin Plawecki: 1-5, R, K
• RF Brandon Nimmo: 0-2
• PH-RF Travis Taijeron: 0-1, 2 R, 2 BB
• PH Jayce Boyd: 0-1, K
• 3B Danny Muno: 2-2, R, 2B, HR, 3 RBI
• P Tim Stauffer: 8.0 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 11 K; Stauffer is off to a really nice start with the 51s. Is he a candidate for a spot start later in the year? Hopefully not!
  

Double-A - Binghamton Mets (63-52)_____________________________________

NO GAME (SCHEDULE)

Advanced-A - St. Lucie Mets (60-60 /25-25)_____________________________________

BRADENTON 5, ST LUCIE 0 (Box)

• CF Kyle Johnson: 0-4
• 2B Jeff McNeil: 0-4
• DH Matt Oberste: 1-4, K
• 1B Dominic Smith: 1-3, BB; I'm coming around on Dom. I'm not ready to talk about it just yet but I'm coming around.
  
• RF Victor Cruzado: 0-4, K
• 3B Jhoan Urena: 1-2, BB, 2 E
• SS Amed Rosario: 0-3
• P Marcos Molina: 4.0 IP, 6 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 2 BB, 3 K; So I guess Molina is back? It's great that he was able to avoid Tommy John surgery, although I suppose--given that delivery--it might just be delaying the inevitable. Regardless, it's nice to see an actual pitching prospect in the Mets system, eh?
  

Low-A - Savannah Sand Gnats (71-48 / 32-17)__________________________________

SAVANNAH 6, AUGUSTA 1 (Box)

I look at this Savannah lineup and rotation and then I look up at their record and I'm somewhat amazed. They've won 14 straight and haven't lost since August 2nd. They now lead the second half division by four games after already having wrapped up the first half title. I'm not sure what happens when you pull off a double like that. Do they just cancel the playoffs and hand them the trophy?

• CF Patrick Biondi: 0-4, K
• SS Luis Guillorme: 0-1, K
• 2B Jonathan Johnson: 0-2, 2 R, 3 BB
• RF Wuilmer Becerra: 2-4, R, 2B, BB, K
• 3B Eudor Garcia: 4-5, R, RBI, K
• DH Michael Katz: 1-5, R, RBI, 3 K
• LF-CF Oswald Caraballo: 2-4, RBI, K
• P Corey Oswalt: 5.0 IP, 7 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 5 K
