Pitcher to watch: Heath Fillmyer (A's No. 18), Midland vs. Frisco (7:30 p.m. ET on MiLB.TV)
Fillmyer is set to make his second start for Midland after he tossed five innings of two-run ball in his Double-A debut on July 21. The 22-year-old right-hander, Oakland's fifth-round pick in the 2014 Draft, was promoted to Midland after an excellent first half at Class A Advanced Stockton, where he posted a 3.60 ERA with 89 strikeouts in 95 innings (18 games/16 starts).
Duel of the day: Taylor Guerrieri (Rays' No. 6) vs. Tyler Mahle (Reds' No. 10), Montgomery vs. Pensacola (8:05 p.m. ET on MiLB.TV)
Guerrieri has been cruising of late for Double-A Montgomery, as he enters the day having completed at least seven innings in four of his past five starts. The 23-year-old right-hander has not suffered a loss in nearly two months, going 8-0 in his 10 starts since May 27. The 2011 first-rounder is 10-4 in 20 starts and he owns a 3.94 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP through 109 2/3 frames.
