BLADE
RUNNER: RHP Blade
Tidwell is in the midst of his best stretch of baseball in 2023...The
21-year-old did not factor into the decision on Tuesday but hurled 3.2 innings
of shutout ball...Over his last 3 starts dating back to May 17 at Hudson
Valley, Tidwell is 2-0 with a 1.32 ERA (2 ER in 13.2 IP) with just 6 hits
allowed...The Loretto, Tenn. native has walked 12 and struck out 19...Tidwell’s
strikeout rate is 32.8% during the stretch and opponents hold a meager .130
batting average (6-46) against him.
BIG
STU: At
6-foot-9, RHP Tyler Stuart has been as consistent and imposing as any
starting pitcher in the South Atlantic League in 2023...The 23-year-old had his
scoreless inning streak snapped at 15.1 innings last Sunday vs. Winston-Salem,
but permitted just 2 earned runs over 25.1 frames (0.71 ERA) in 5 starts during
May...Stuart leads the SAL — and all qualified High-A pitchers — in ERA (1.23)...Stuart
is also 7th in innings pitched (44.0) and 10th in WHIP (1.20)...The Kankakee,
Ill. native is also 2nd in LOB% (87.2%), 2nd in FIP (2.86), 4th in xFIP (3.46),
6th in strikeout rate (29.1%), and 8th in strikeouts per 9 innings
(10.64).
THEY’RE
NO. 1: The
Cyclones’ pitching staff has been marvelous over the course of the team’s last
18 games...Since May 17, Brooklyn has permitted just 36 earned runs (48 total)
on 117 hits through the last 151.0 innings...That is good for a 2.15 ERA...That
mark is the best in the SAL and the High-A level...It is also the best ERA in
all of Minor League Baseball in that stretch...Kansas City’s Single-A Columbia
is 2nd in MiLB (2.49)...Cyclones’ pitching has walked 62 (10.0 BB%) and struck
out 180 in that span (28.9 K%)...The ‘Clones have outscored opponents, 75-48,
over the 18-game stretch...Brooklyn is 10-8 during that span...On the year, the
Cyclones lead the South Atlantic League in ERA (3.80).
BULL-PEN
ON PARADE: The Cyclones’ relief staff has been exquisite at quelling fires in
2023...Entering Sunday, Brooklyn has the best bullpen ERA (3.13) in the entire
South Atlantic League and among all High-A teams...Rome (3.51) is 2nd in the
circuit and the Dodgers’ High-A Great Lakes is 2nd (3.29) at the
classification...The Cyclones’ relief ERA is also the best in the New York
Mets’ farm system and 2nd best in all of MiLB...San Francisco’s Double-A Richmond
leads MiLB (3.02).
UP
TO PAR-ADA: C Kevin Parada extended his hitting streak to 8 games with
a multi-hit effort in Game 1 on Saturday...The 21-year-old is
11-for-his-last-32 (.344) with a run scored, 3 doubles, 2 RBI, and a pair of
walks...Parada holds a 126 wRC+ and .378 wOBA in that span...He is tied for 4th
in the SAL in doubles (14)...Since the start of May, Parada was tied for 3rd in
the circuit in two-baggers (10) and tied for 5th in the league in extra-base
hits (13).
MATEO
MASH: INF Mateo
Gil has reached base safely in 13 of his last 14 games dating back to May
18 at Hudson Valley...The 22-year-old is slashing .267/.365/.600 and he has registered
an impressive .965 OPS, 154 wRC+, and .423 wOBA in that time...Gil is 12-for-45
at the plate (.267) with 9 runs scored, 3 doubles, 4 home runs, and 11 RBI
adding 7 walks...Since that date, Gil is tied for the South Atlantic League
lead in home runs (4) with three others...The former 3rd-round pick is also 3rd
in the league in slugging (.600), tied for 5th in RBI (11), and 7th in OPS
(.965).

ON THE RUN: OF Omar De Los Santos is 10-for-his-last-32 (.313) with 3
runs scored, 2 doubles, a home run, 5 RBI, 3 stolen bases, and a 115 wRC+...In
addition to his 19 stolen bases in 2023, he remains among the best base
stealers in Minor League Baseball since the beginning of 2022...The 23-year-old
has accumulated 89 stolen bases in that span, which is 5th most in MiLB...Only
Red Sox prospect INF David Hamilton (96), Marlins farmhand INF Nasim
Núñez (96), Aberdeen OF Luis Valdez (94), and Mariners prospect OF Jonatan
Clasé (91) have swiped more...De Los Santos has also snagged 51 more bases
than any other Mets prospect in that time...Fellow Cyclone IF/OF Jaylen
Palmer is 2nd with 38...Omar is already 13 swipes shy of matching INF Walter
Rasquin’s franchise record for single-season stolen bases (32) which was
set back in 2017.
THRILL
OF THE ‘CHASE’: After a bumpy month of April, INF Chase Estep picked up the
pace at the plate in the season’s second month...In his last 22 games dating
back to May 5, the 23-year-old slashes .286/.360/.494 with a .854 OPS...Estep
has accumulated 12 runs scored, 6 doubles, 2 triples, 2 home runs, and 13 RBI
in 86 plate appearances...The Corbin, Ky. native has also registered a 130
wRC+...In his first 12 outings, he was just 2-for-43 (.047) at the dish with a
wRC+ of -21...Estep has also raised his batting average by 153 points in that
time (.047 to .200).
DOUBLE
TROUBLE: The
Cyclones were swept in Saturday’s twinbill and dropped to 1-7 in doubleheader
games in 2023...All 4 doubleheaders Brooklyn has played have been in visiting
ballparks...The ‘Clones are 20-21 in regularly scheduled 9-inning games this
year.
