Down on the Farm: 4/10/2018

AAA  Reno Aces pounded the Sacramento River Cats 7-2:

Steven Duggar CF- 2 for 4, SB(2).  BA= .250.
Mac Williamson RF- 1 for 3, HR(2), BB.  BA= .568.
Jose Flores RHP- 5 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 7 K's. ERA= 1.80.

Duggar seems to be out of his mini-slump with 4 hits in 8 AB over his last 2 games.  Mac continues to pound the ball and we have to be wondering if he could help kick-start the Giants offense.  Jose Flores seems like a potential option for a callup at some point.

AA  Richmond Flying Squirrels outscored the Hartford Yard Goats 8-6:

Ryan Howard SS- 3 for 5, HR(1), SB(4).  BA= .360.
Aramis Garcia C- 2 for 5, 2B.  BA= .318.
Dylan Davis LF- 2 for 4.  BA= .368.
Dillon Dobson 1B- 1 for 2, 3 BB.  BA= .222.
Jonah Arenado 3B- 2 for 5, HR(1).  BA= .182.
Cory Taylor RHP- 5 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 3.72.
Ray Black RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's, Save(3).  ERA= 0.00.

Howard hit over .300 wire-to-wire last year in SJ.  He's looking to do it again in Richmond this year.  Garcia making nice progress.  Giants can afford to take it slow with him.  Woo!  Hoo! Ray Black!  How soon before we se him and his triple digit heater in the Giants bullpen?

A+  Lancaster Jethawks defeated the San Jose Giants 5-3:

Bryce Johnson CF- 2 for 5.  BA= .227.
Gio Brusa 1B- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .235.
Frandy De La Rosa 3B- 2 for 3, 3B, HR(1), BB.  BA= .333.
Melvin Adon RHP- 5.2 IP, 8 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 4.15.

Lancaster is a very tough place to pitch.

Low A  Augusta Greenjackets blanked the Greensboro Grasshoppers 5-0:

Malique Ziegler LF- 3 for 4, 2B, HR(2), BB.  BA= .409.
Orlando Garcia 2B- 0 for 2, 3 BB.  BA= .455.
Jason Bahr RHP- 5.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 9 K's.  ERA= 1.04.
Eduardo Rivera RHP- 2.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K's. ERA= 4.15.

Ziegler is starting this season much like he started last summer in S-K.  He clearly has the talent.  His challenge will be to not wear down over the grind of the season.  Garcia is getting respect from opposing pitchers.  Dominant Start by Jason Bahr.  Rivera is a minor league phase Rule 5 draftee.
