Prospect Roundup June 13th Games: Luis Rijo and Kyle Tucker

Luis Rijo (Pulaski 2018; Elizabethton 2018) and Kyle Tucker (Greeneville Astros 2015) had outstanding performances on Thursday.

Twins RHP Luis Rijo , Class A Cedar Rapids: 5 IP, 1 H, 3 K -- Activated from the 7-day injured list earlier Thursday, Minnesota's No. 30 prospect tossed shutout ball for the second straight outing, extending his scoreless streak to 10 innings, in the Kernels' 2-0 loss to Wisconsin. He threw 57 pitches, 38 for strikes. It was the sixth time in eight starts the 6-foot-2 right-hander has allowed two or fewer earned runs. Luis, acquired last year in a trade with the Yankees for Lance Lynn , was placed on the IL on May 25 with a hamstring injury.
Astros OF Kyle Tucker , Triple-A Round Rock: 2-for-3, 1 3B, 2 RBI, 2 BB -- Continuing his push for Triple-A All-Star Game recognition, baseball's No. 10 overall prospect reached base four times. Tucker's triple was his third of the season and first since May 19. The 22-year-old now has hits in five straight games and multiple hits in five of his last nine contests.
