Quick Minors Update

Indy, Altoona, and Lynchburg all qualified for their respective leagues' playoffs this summer. None are off to a good start. According to today's BA Prospect Report, all three have dropped the first two games of their series. That puts the Indians and Curve in a 2-0 hole in a five game series and that makes Lynchburg swept (by Frederick, for anyone from back home that's interested, Nolan Reimold lead the sweep with a .556 average and two doubles, two ribbies and scored a run from second on a passed ball in the series clincher, a 7-5 Frederick win, recap here). Also, Bullington got shelled last night and Mark Corey did his best impersonation of Jose Mesa in the Indians 6-5 loss to Buffalo. Both Indianapolis and Altoona try to avoid sweeps today.
