Mets Minor Leaguers Struggle in Doubleheader Losses

0:00It's April 30th. This is New York Metz News Today, driven by AI, your team, nonstop. Metz Minor League Squats had a rough night across the board, with rain wiping out the AAA C-R-Q's game against Lehigh Valley. That one's getting made up April 30th as a double header. Everywhere else, losses piled up, dropping Binghamton to 8 wins, 15 losses, Brooklyn to 10-13, and St. Lucie to 10-12. One in AA, Binghamton dropped both ends of a double header to New Hampshire, 8-2-5-3. Pitching struggled big time, especially Will Watson, who gave up seven runs in three innings in game 1, and Brian Matoyer, who imploded for three runs. In just one third of an inning in the nightcap, often showed flickers, like Nick Lureso's two hits, and Jacob Rimer's doubles. High A, Brooklyn got blanked. Five nothing by Frederick, no runs at all, despite Mitch Void going two for four with two steals. Starter. Joel Diaz took the tough luck, allowing five runs over four and two-thirds innings.

1:04Meanwhile, single A St. Lucie pushed hard, but fell short in their double header against Tampa, 6-7, and 4-7. Standouts included, J.T. Benson's three run homer for St. Lucie in game 1, and Elian Pena, shipping in doubles across both their games. But it was slim pickings overall, with the fences shaky and bats quiet, most places. Records are holding steady in spots, but the system needs momentum heading into the week. Keep an eye on these young arms and hitters bouncing back. Soon.
