#Athletics hope that Mills clears waivers, they'd love to have him at Sacramento. He might have been too useful with A's to clear tho.

Tonight's minor league action includes Sacramento at Fresno, Shawn Haviland pitching for Midland and my new favorite player, Yeiper Castillo, pitching for Stockton.
On this day a year ago, Eric Sogard homered and Jesse Chavez will brilliant out of the bullpen to lead the A's to a 10-4 victory and a series win at Kansas City.
Tonight's starting lineup includes Brandon Moss back in the mix. He'll be the DH.
