Rainiers Slump, Prospects Shine

Published 10 hours ago
Description

The Tacoma Rainiers are in freefall, losing six straight games and falling below .500, while utility player Brock Rodden goes on the injured list with a hamstring strain. Miles Mastrobuoni’s return to action raises questions about his future, as he’s out of minor league options and the team already has plenty of left-handed bats. Meanwhile, Arkansas Travelers’ Ryan Sloan, just turned 20, dazzled with six perfect innings and 11 strikeouts, bolstering his case as a top pitching prospect. Everett AquaSox struggled offensively but saw standout performances from Josh Caron, who hit three homers and finished May with a .900 OPS, and Christian Little, whose lights-out relief work (0.90 ERA) could earn him a Double-A promotion. Inland Empire 66ers remain winless this week, but Mason Peters continues his dominant season with a 1.56 ERA, while shortstop Nick Becker hit his first homer in the ACL, showing speed and potential.
