Yankees Minor League Report 5/31/14: Austin Romine, Gary Sanchez & Aaron Judge Homer; Robert Refsnyder Keeps Rolling Along; The Latest From Ian Clarkin

The DSL squads started their seasons today.  I do not typically report on players at this level. I may make a note or two during the year when warranted, but these kids are almost impossible to project and many of them will disappear within time without any trace.  Attrition is fairly high.
----------------------------
Scranton (Defeated Indianapolis, 7-3)

C Austin Romine:  3-for-4, HR (2), 4 RBI, 2 RS
20-for-64 in May after a horrendous start in April (His hot streak in May has only increased his average to .238, so you can just assume where he was at).  
OF Adonis Garcia:  1-for-4, RS, 2 K, SB (10)
UTIL Zelous Wheeler:  2-for-4, RS
C Francisco Arcia:  2-for-3, RBI, BB
2B Jose Pirela:  0-for-4, RS, BB
1B Russ Canzler:  2-for-4, 2B (10), RS
Third consecutive multi-hit game.   12 hits in last 33 AB.
IF Scott Sizemore:  1-for-5, K
IF Corban Joseph:  0-for-5

RHP Shane Greene (W, 3-2);  6.2 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 6 K
5.09 ERA; 35.1 IP, 47 H, 24 R, 20 ER, 1 HR, 14 BB, 31 K
The Yankees can only hope that Greene regains his form from last year - with the bad news on Pineda, they may just need him.   It should still be noted that early season issues/injuries on the major league level kept Greene going back and forth between the majors and minors, rarely getting a chance to pitch (Didn't make his minor league debut until 4/18)
RHP Danny Burawa (S, 2):  2.1 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 3 K
1.53 ERA; 17.2 IP, 12 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 8 BB, 23 K
-------------------------------------
Trenton (Lost DH to Portland, 9-4 and 4-3)

2B Robert Refsnyder:  3-for-6, 2B (15), 3B (5), RBI, RS
.317/.364/.518 in 199 AB. 21 hits in his last 40 AB.  Just a remarkable hot streak.
1B/3B/RF Tyler Austin: 4-for-7, RBI, 2 K
.256/.333/.346 in 133 AB.  
Another start at third today (along with a start at first)   
C Gary Sanchez:  2-for-3, HR (7), 2 RBI, RS
.257/.322/.436 in 179 AB.  13 hits in last 32 AB.
CF Mason Williams: 2-for-7, 2B (9), 2 RS, SB (11), K
.203/.301/.276; .270/.386/.378 in last ten games.
C/RF Pete O'Brien: 0-for-6, RS, K
.244/.278/.628 in 86 AB for Trenton.  7-for-36 in last ten games.
OF Taylor Dugas:  1-for-2, RS, HBP
OF Ben Gamel:  0-for-7, K

RHP Graham Stoneburner (L, 2-2):  5.1 IP, 9 H, 7 R, 4 ER, 2 BB, 5 K
5.00 ERA; 45 IP, 48 H, 30 R, 25 ER, 3 HR, 13 BB, 27 K
LHP Cesar Cabral:  1.2 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 1 K

LHP Jeremy Bleich:  5 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 4 K
3.48 ERA; 62 IP, 56 H, 30 R, 24 ER, 6 HR, 18 BB, 53 K
LHP Fred Lewis (L, 0-2): 2 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 1 K
17.1 IP, 28 H, 15 R, 13 ER, 11 BB, 13 K
From the verge of making the big league roster to a complete and utter mess.
-----------------
Charleston (Lost to Asheville, 8-4)

OF Aaron Judge:  2-for-4, 2B (10), HR (6), 4 RBI, RS
.311 in 190 AB with 17 XBH, 32 RBI, 28 runs, 29 walks, and 47 strikeouts
2B Gosuke Katoh:  0-for-3, BB, K, CS (4)
3B Miguel Andujar:  1-for-3, BB
SS Tyler Wade:  0-for-0, PO
Came in to pinch run, and was picked off at third base.  Good job, kid!
UTIL John Murphy:  0-for-3, SAC
OF Brandon Thomas: 1-for-4
1B Mike Ford:  1-for-3, HBP

LHP Ian Clarkin (L, 1-3):  5 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 7 K, HR
4.23 ERA; 27.2 IP, 29 H, 15 R, 13 ER, 4 HR, 7 BB, 29 K
Overall, he has done about what you would expect a highly drafted teenager to do here.  
LHP Rony Bautista:  1 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 3 K
8.1 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 6 BB, 8 K
Seriously, I would hate to step in the batter's box against this kid - he throws very hard but doesn't always know where the heck it is going.
RHP Cesar Vargas:  3 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 2 K
2.83 ERA; 28.2 IP, 27 H, 12 R, 9 ER, 1 HR, 7 BB, 30 K
