It's April 30th. I'm Corey with the story, and this is MLB News Today Baseball News, powered by AI. Wednesday's minor leaks slate for the Brave's affiliates brought mixed bags across the board. Gwyneth Strippers, sitting at 18 wins and 11 losses, dropped a heartbreaker 9-10 against Charlotte Knights after blowing a three run. Lead late. Columbus' clingstones, 12-10, fell 5-6 to Montgomery Biscuits and another one run defeat.

But starter, Eliezer Hernandez coughed up 6 earn runs over 5 innings, sealing the loss. Down in double A, Columbus saw David McKay mash a Homer and double for 2 RBI's, and

Hasey on Kim debuted strong on rehab with a single and stolen. Base before exiting early. Reactions from fans highlight concerns over pitching depth, especially Garrett Bowman's rough double, A starred for Columbus 8.06 ERA. After surrendering 6 runs and 4 walks in 5 innings this time, he's walking more batters and giving up homers at an alarming clip. Holding his prospect status in jeopardy and may be eyeing a bullpen shift, or, demotion. Bright spots emerge too. Roam's Cedric DeGranprey fanned 8 over 5 frames despite 3 runs allowed, backing an early offensive explosion lead by Dixon Williams' 3 RBI's and Homer. In Augusta, Derrick Vartanian struck out 6 but got 0 support, though Tate Southocene and Wammateo nashed multi-hit games. These close calls underscore the grind in the minors, with rehabbers like Murphy and Kim, turning corners and young arms like DeGranprey stepping up, just what the system needs to

build momentum heading into the weekend series.
