Scranton lost to Buffalo 2-1 in 11 innings. Hits were hard to come by for Scranton. Colin Curtis is off to a hot start. Here's a story on Kei Igawa, the most patented AAAA pitcher I have ever seen. Here's another good profile on Jesus Montero. It's not always easy being a fan of AAA baseball.

Trenton beat the Seawolves 4-1. David Adams has been red hot to start the year, and so has the Trenton pitching staff this notebook says. A torn elbow ligament may or may not end Christian Garcia's season, and possibly his career. Wilkin De La Rosa, Lance Pendleton and Josh Schmidt are possible candidates to replace Garcia in the rotation. Garcia seems to be in that 15-20% group of Tommy John guys who struggle with recovery.

Tampa beat Lakeland 2-0 behind an almost perfect performance from Adam Warren.

Charleston lost 8-4 in a back and forth affair Saturday. Jose Ramirez will get the start for Charleston this afternoon.

Here's the organizational report from Minor League Splits.
