LAST TIME OUT: The Cyclones outslugged Jersey Shore en route to a 10-6 victory on Sunday afternoon at ShoreTown Ballpark...Brooklyn scored 6 times in the 2nd inning on 2-run doubles by 3B Mateo Gil and CF Alex Ramírez, as well as a 2-run home run by SS William Lugo...Ramírez added a solo home run in the 6th as part of a 3-hit, 3-RBI day...Lugo collected 2 hits, 2 runs scored, and 2 RBI...2B Chase Estep picked up a career-high 4 hits and drove in a run in the 9th...RF Omar De Los Santos tallied a run-scoring knock in the 3rd and garnered his 20th stolen bag of the year...7 of the Cyclones’ 9 batters picked up at least 1 hit and 8 of the 9 reached base at least once. 

 

NOT SO STUART LITTLE: 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 permitted just 2 earned runs over 25.1 frames (0.71 ERA) in 5 starts during May...Stuart leads the SAL — and all qualified pitchers in Minor League Baseball — in ERA (1.43)...Stuart is also 10th in the circuit in innings pitched (44.0) and WHIP (1.20)...The Kankakee, Ill. native is also 2nd in LOB% (87.2%), 2nd in FIP (2.87), 4th in xFIP (3.48), 7th in strikeout rate (29.1%), and 8th in strikeouts per 9 innings (10.64). 

 

BLADE CUTS ‘EM DOWN: 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 Sunday but hurled 2.2 innings without allowing an earned run...Over his last 4 starts dating back to May 17 at Hudson Valley, Tidwell is 2-0 with a 1.10 ERA (2 ER in 16.1 IP) with just 6 hits allowed...The Loretto, Tenn. native has walked 16 and struck out 23...Tidwell’s strikeout rate is 32.4% during the stretch and opponents hold a meager .106 batting average (6-55) against him. 

 

THE BEST AROUND: The Cyclones’ pitching staff has been marvelous over the course of the team’s last 19 games...Since May 17, Brooklyn has permitted just 40 earned runs (54 total) on 123 hits through the last 160.0 innings...That is good for a 2.25 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 (2.52)...Cyclones’ pitching has walked 72 (10.8 BB%) and struck out 192 in that span (28.8 K%)...The ‘Clones have outscored opponents, 85-54, over the 19-game stretch...Brooklyn is 11-8 during that span. 

 

RELIEF READY: The Cyclones’ relief staff has been exquisite at quelling fires in 2023...Entering Sunday, Brooklyn has the best bullpen ERA (3.16) in the entire South Atlantic League and among all High-A teams...Hudson Valley (3.58) is 2nd in the circuit and the Dodgers’ High-A Great Lakes is 2nd (3.38) 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 (3.14). 

 

1-2, E-STEP: 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 24 games dating back to May 5, the 23-year-old slashes .317/.385/.512 with a .897 OPS...Estep has accumulated 14 runs scored, 6 doubles, 2 triples, 2 home runs, and 14 RBI in 91 plate appearances...The Corbin, Ky. native has also registered a 142 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 177 points in that time (.047 to .224).  

 

GOING, GOING, GIL: INF Mateo Gil has reached base safely in 14 of his last 15 games dating back to May 18 at Hudson Valley...The 22-year-old is slashing .265/.368/.592 and he has registered an impressive .960 OPS, 152 wRC+, and .422 wOBA in that time...Gil is 13-for-49 at the plate (.265) with 10 runs scored, 4 doubles, 4 home runs, and 13 RBI adding 8 walks...Since that date, Gil is tied for the South Atlantic League lead in home runs (4) and extra-base hits (8)...The former 3rd-round pick is also tied for 3rd in the league in RBI (13), 4th in slugging (.592), and 6th in OPS (.960). 

 

UP TO PAR-ADA: C Kevin Parada extended his on-base streak to 9 games with a walk on Sunday...The 21-year-old is 11-for-his-last-37 (.297) with a run scored, 3 doubles, 2 RBI, and 3 walks...Parada holds a 102 wRC+ and .340 wOBA in that span...He is tied for 4th in the SAL in doubles (14)...Since the start of May, Parada is tied for 4th in the circuit in two-baggers (10) and tied for 6th in the league in extra-base hits (13). 

 

ALL GAS, NO TE-BRAKE: RHP Dylan Tebrake has been nearly untouchable since being reinstated from Brooklyn’s injured list...Since being activated on May 14, the 23-year-old has made 6 relief appearances...Tebrake has not allowed an earned run (1 total) on 3 hits and 3 walks over 9.1 innings, registering 15 strikeouts...That equates to a 42.9 K% (15/35). 

 

OH YEAH, OMAR: OF Omar De Los Santos is 11-for-his-last-37 (.297) with 4 runs scored, 2 doubles, a home run, 6 RBI, 4 stolen bases, and a 107 wRC+...In addition to his 20 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 90 stolen bases in that span, which is 5th most in MiLB...Only Marlins farmhand INF Nasim Núñez (97), Red Sox prospect INF David Hamilton (96), , Aberdeen OF Luis Valdez (94), and Mariners prospect OF Jonatan Clasé (91) have swiped more...De Los Santos has also snagged 52 more bases than any other Mets prospect in that time...Fellow Cyclone IF/OF Jaylen Palmer is 2nd with 38...Omar is already 12 swipes shy of matching INF Walter Rasquin’s franchise record for single-season stolen bases (32) which was set back in 2017.
