The fresh Farm Fortnight posted Tuesday afternoon covers the larger developmental tracks for White Sox prospects at the five stateside levels, so I'd recommend reading that before checking out the box scores. As we all know, the minor league season is a serial, so Tuesday's games aren't going to make sense to you if you don't know what happened before.
As for some of the trends mentioned in the post and how they fared at the start of a fresh week:
*Jimmy Lambert: Saw his streak of five-inning starts end with a thud.
*Luis González: Shored up his July stats further.
*Carlos Pérez: Hiked his OPS above .700 with a multi-hit game.
*DJ Gladney: Maintained his boom in a season where they've been swiftly followed by busts.
