Around MiLB: Jake Burger and Micker Adolfo hit home runs, Taylor Varnell struck out six in three innings of work, and Kannapolis is off to a tough start.
Around MLB: The Oakland A’s threaten to move (again), meanwhile, Detroit avoids a complete bullpen meltdown against Kansas City, and Cleveland remains a game behind the White Sox.

I don’t think Birmingham winning the most and being the least interesting and Kanny winning the least and being the most interesting are mutually exclusive. Kanny has a bunch of young, unproven prospects. The most interesting guys in Birmingham are 24 (Eloy Jimenez’s age).
I aimed it to be a surprise that Birmingham is playing well with the roster they have on hand.
And yeah, the kids are struggling out of the gate in Kannapolis. It’s early.
