Down on the Farm: 4/8/2018

AAA  Tacoma Rainiers outscored the Sacramento River Cats 7-6 in 7 innings:

Austin Slater LF- 1 for 2, 2B, BB, HBP.  BA= .455.
Mac Williamson RF- 2 for 3, 2B, BB.  BA= .600.
Kyle Jensen 1B- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .333.
Alen Hanson SS- 3 for 4, 2 2B, SB(1).  BA= .750.
Steven Duggar CF- 0 for 5.  BA= .083.

Mac and Slater stay hot.  Duggar stays cold.  Alen Hanson makes his first appearance and has a big game.  Game 2 of the scheduled DH, which was a makeup of a rainout, was rained out.

AA  Richmond Flying Squirrels edged out the Trenton Thunder 3-2 in 10 innings:

Ryan Howard SS- 2 for 5, 2 SB(3).  BA= .188.
Matt "The Mayor of Richmond" Gage LHP- 5 IP,  5 H, 2 R, 0 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 3.60.
Dusten Knight RHP- 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 0.00.
Ryan Halstead RHP- 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 0.00.
Ray Black RHP- 0.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's, Save(2). ERA= 0.00.

This was Knight's second appearance of the season.  He has 5 K's and 1 BB in 4.1 IP.  Ray Black gets his second Save as the Squirrels Closer.

A+  San Jose Giants pounded the Inland Empire 66'ers 6-1:

Jalen Miller 2B- 2 for 5, 2B.  BA= .214.
Frandy De La Rosa 1B- 3 for 5, 3B.  BA= .273.
Gio Brusa DH- 1 for 3, 2 BB.  BA= .154.
Jacob Heyward LF- 1 for 3, HR(1), 2 BB.  BA= .429.
Sandro Fabian RF- 2 for 5, 2B, HR(1).  BA= .200.
Matt Winn C- 2 for 5, 2B.  BA= .500.
Brandon Van Horn SS- 2 for 5, HR(1).  BA= .278.
Mac Marshall LHP- 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 0.00.
Sandro Cabrera LHP- 4 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

Hopefully this is the start of good things for Sandro Fabian.  Gotta be a bit excited for Brandon Van Horn who is hitting surprisingly well so far.  The Giants need some pitching prospects like Marshall and Cabrera to break out this year.

Low A Augusta Greenjackets doubled the score on the Columbia Fireflies 10-5:

Heliot Ramos CF- 1 for 5, 2B.  BA= .167.
Manuel Geraldo SS- 1 for 3, 2 BB.  BA= .125.
Jacob Gonzalez 3B- 3 for 5, 2B.  BA= .375.
Orlando Garcia 2B- 4 for 5, SB(1).  BA= .533.
Rob Calabrese C- 1 for 4, 3B, BB.  BA= .250.
Franklin Van Gurp RHP- 3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Frank Rubio RHP- 2.1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 5.40.

Ramos has 3 hits on the season:  2 2B and a 3B.  Jacob Gonzalez is a more advanced hitter than Ramos even though Ramos has a higher overall ceiling.  Orlando Garcia might be too good for low A ball.

  1. Yeah, I was excited to See Sandro bust out some, he's a guy I'm watching closely this season, he had a great end to 2017, and hoping he can continue with SJ, especially since it's more of a hitter's league.

    What do you think is happening with Duggar, could he be down about missing Opening Day?
