Teddy Stankiewicz - S - Red Sox

Red Sox prospect RHP Teddy Stankiewicz turned in his best start of the season Thursday, throwing six scoreless innings with three hits and three strikeouts for Low-A Greenville.

A second-round draft pick by Boston last June, Stankiewicz was shelled in his season debut for Greenville, allowing five earned runs on eight hits in four innings. However, the 20-year-old right-hander has been sharp in his last two rotation turns, combining for 11 scoreless innings and a 7/3 strikeout-to-walk ratio. Overall, Stankiewicz has posted a 3.00 ERA through his first 15 innings on the year.

Angels optioned LHP Jose Alvarez to Triple-A Salt Lake.

Alvarez was up for less than a week and was unscored upon in two-thirds of an inning. He's being replaced in the bullpen by Josh Wall.

Adam Plutko - S - Indians

Indians prospect RHP Adam Plutko allowed an unearned run on one hit and two walks in four innings on Thursday for Low-A Lake County.

The 22-year-old right-hander struck out a season-high eight batters in the outing. The Indians drafted Plutko in the 11th round last June out of UCLA, but held him back from making his professional after long and strenuous college season. Through his first three starts this year for Lake County, Plutko owns a 2.84 ERA and 17/5 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 12 2/3 innings. Even though he lacks a high ceiling, Plutko's deep arsenal and advanced command could make him a solid back-end starter for the Tribe in the next couple years.
