Minor Lines 4/16: Brayan Bello makes final rehab start

If you take yesterday’s date, 4/16, it reduces to 1/4. As in, one-fourth of the teams we usually cover had a one-day postponement due to, uh, cold weather. Rochester (Nationals AAA) had some wind squalls that may have made baseball unplayable, or at least, unwatchable: 37 degrees at game time with 25 mile-per-hour wind gusts. They play a double-header today: Cooper Criswell gets the ball at 3:35. Onto games that were played... let’s get into it!

Portland: W, 7-5 (BOX SCORE)

It’s rehab week in Connecticut agaisnt the Hartford Yard Goats (Rockies AA) as Brayan Bello saw his pitch count increased yet again in his final start before rejoining the Major League team following some shoulder inflammation.
