AAA-Salt Lake

Thanks to their huge start, the Bees have a comfortable 9 game lead in the PCL North. In May, however, the Bees were sub-500 at 13-16. First Baseman Kendry Morales batted .352 in May with 6 home runs. Third Baseman Matt Brown followed up his great April (.425 45-for-106) with a lousy May (.250 18-for-72) although his home run totals were up - 6 in April and 7 in May. Pitcher Nick Adenhart has struggled since returning from the Angels. In 4 starts he has allowed 15 runs - a 5.96 era. Reliever Jason Bulger has been striking out players by the bushel. In 14.2 ip, he has struck out 23 batters. His era is 1.23.

AA-Arkansas

The Travelers are 28-29, three games behind first place NW Arkansas in the Texas League North Division. The Travs have the best era (3.93) in the league and the worst batting average (.253). Two pitchers are among the league leaders in era - Dan Denham, 25, is third with an era of 3.02 and Robert Mosebach, 23, is sixth with an era of 3.53. Offensively, only two regulars are hitting above .260 - outfielder Jordan Czarniecki, 27, is hitting .318 and first baseman Michael Collins, 23, is hitting .283.
