(MA) Meet Winks, an adorable and incredibly strong puppy with a heartbreaking origin. Winks was found unmoving on the side of a road with severe injuries. He had several very infected wounds and was barely holding on when his rescuers rushed him to the vet. Once there, x-rays revealed the horrifying truth that Winks had been shot numerous times around his face and neck. These injuries resulted in him having his eye removed. Despite that, Winks has made a miraculous and full recovery. He certainly does not let his handicap slow him down at his new foster home. Winks was truly given a second chance at life, and now all he needs is a family to call his own.

Triple-A Buffalo reinstated Votto (ankle) from its 7-day injured list ahead of Friday's game against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Votto had participated in 16 rehab contests between Single-A Dunedin and the rookie-level Florida Complex League, going 8-for-43 with one home run and a 14:8 K:BB in 53 plate appearances. He seems to be feeling fine physically at this point, but Toronto would surely like to see better results from Votto at Triple-A before it considers adding him to the major-league roster.

Just look at that beautiful pup! Lima is an adorable 5-month-old Husky who is smart, friendly, and a total sweetheart. It’s hard to believe this sweet girl was brought to FAAS after being abandoned in a grocery store parking lot, tied to a pole with an electrical cord used as a leash. She was just a few months old.

Luis Guanipa, CF: 2-for-4, RBI, 2B, .282/.346/.451. John Gil, SS: 3-for-5, 2R, RBI, 2B, .286/.403/.389. Luis Parababire, C: 2-for-3, 3 RBI, R, 2B, .291/.480/.491. Huascar Ynoa made his first rehab appearance since the stress reaction in his elbow. Ynoa pitched in a pair of innings, giving up a run in the process. The quartet of Luis Guanipa, John Gil, Junior Garcia, and Luis Parababire continued to put in work going a combined 10-for-16 while driving in five runs, and scoring six times themselves. The Braves quickly put this game out of hand, scoring seven runs in the top of the second inning. They would go on to explode for another five runs in the sixth while picking up the win. It was a great offensive day for the team as everyone, except for Douglas Glod, picked up at least one hit. Glod did get on base twice via walk and scored both times as well. Of note, it was nice to see Diego Benitez pick up a pair of hits. Diego has had a position switch from SS to 3B, and has been lost offensively. It’s been a tough year, so hopefully this will get things going for Diego.
