Nice hand for Jason Krizan as he stepped into the box for his first Major League plate appearance. His wife, Kristin, wiped away a tear as she watched from the stands with the couple's 2-year-old son.
Now that Opening Day rosters have been announced, here are most loaded teams in the minor leagues.
1. @RumblePoniesBB (Mets AA)
2. @EugeneEmeralds (Giants HiA)
3. @AkronRubberDuck (Guardians AA)

Brian Howard will be on the mound for @aviatorslv tomorrow night against the River Cats. He’s 6’9” and will *not* be tallest person on the lineup card. #hjelletime
A couple great write-ups from last night’s history at Sutter Health Park.
One from River Cats beat writer @Mavpallack: https://t.co/bkd7zSLGjA
And another from MiLB’s @tylermaun: https://t.co/Emmbf73m1t
To illustrate the consistency of @RiverCats INF Jason Krizan this season, observe his various splits:
Home - .320 BA, .849 OPS
Away - .318 BA, .866 OPS
vs. LHP - .318 BA, .867 OPS
vs. RHP - .319 BA, .855 OPS
Toss in a 8.6 BB% and 13.3 K% for good measure. He fits in this org
Sean Hjelle threw 80 or more pitches in 9 of his 14 outings with @GoSquirrels this year before his promotion. He goes 87 (58 strikes) today in 6 innings (3 ER) before being replaced by Reyes Moronta, who is making rehab appearance No. 8. #clawsup#sfgiants
RHP Sean Hjelle 94-95 with good tail in first Triple-A inning. Mid-80s breaking ball got a swing through from Luis Campusano. Worked quickly on mound. #clawsup#sfgiants
