Yordanny Monegro had another one of his dominant starts this week. The right-handed pitcher tossed five scoreless innings, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out 11 batters. Monegro has a 2.56 ERA, .223 BAA, and 1.29 WHIP in Single-A. He's struck out 47 batters compared to 14 walks in 31 2/3 innings. Monegro's swagger on the mound has made him an instant fan favorite.

Christian Nunez made his first Single-A appearance of the season. The righty didn't allow a run over four innings of work. He gave up one hit but didn't walk anyone and struck out six batters.

Noah Dean was trying to convert from a reliever to a starter this season. We saw a few good outings, but for the most part, it featured a lot of struggles. The lefty made his first appearance out of the bullpen this week and cooked. Dean fired off four shutout innings on Sunday. He allowed one hit and two walks while striking out six batters.

Luis De La Rosa allowed one unearned run on one hit and one walk over three innings this week. The righty reliever also struck out five batters. De La Rosa has a 3.60 ERA, .212 BAA, and 1.36 WHIP in 55 innings. He's struck out 65 batters compared to 33 walks.

Mikey Romero is slashing .217/.288/.304 with four doubles and two triples in Single-A. The left-handed hitting shortstop has driven in nine runs, scored 11 more, and stolen two bases. There has been plenty of bad luck, with Romero hitting balls on the screws, but right to a defender.
