ABOUT THE HILLCATS: The Dash visited the Hillcats earlier this week, winning one of three games during the series. Lynchburg is the High-A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians, and they currently sit in second place in the Northern Division of the Carolina League. The Hillcats are led offensively by outfielders Conner Capel, the organization's 12th-best prospect, and Mitch Longo, the Indians' 27th-best prospect according to MLB Pipeline. Both Capel and Longo currently have an 11-game hitting streak.
ABOUT THE ASTROS: Buies Creek, the High-A affiliate of the Houston Astros, has been one of the hotter teams in the league to start the season. Entering play on Friday, the Astros sit in first place in the Southern Division of the Carolina League. Buies Creek boasts one of the best pitching staffs in the league, with a team ERA under 2.00 thanks to right-handers Corbin Martin and Abdiel Saldana, who have yet to allow an earned run in a combined 33.2 innings pitched.
