AAA The Las Vegas Aces held on to edge the Fresno Grizzlies 8-7:
Brock Bond- 2 for 5. BA= .345.
Buster Posey- 2 for 5, SB(1). BA= .367.
Joe Borchard- 3 for 5, HR(1).
Madison Bumgarner- 4 IP, 10 H, 7 R, 0 BB, 4 K's.
Bumgarner was possibly left in too long as he allowed 2 runs in the first inning then 3 more innings of shutout ball until the 5'th inning when he allowed two 2 run HR's and 5 runs without retiring a batter. No word yet on velocity.
AA The Altoona Curve doubled the score on the Richmond Flying Squirrels 4-2:
Darren Ford- 2 for 5, 2B. BA= .219.
Brandon Crawford- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(1). BA= .381.
Conor Gillaspie- 1 for 5, HR(2).
Thomas Neal- 0 for 5, 3 K's, GIDP. BA= .172.
Clayton Tanner- 5 IP, 5 H, 3 R, 1 BB, 5 K's, GO/AO= 9/1.
Maybe the half-year of AA experience is helping Crawford? Nice to see the power from Conor Gillaspie. I'm not really worried about him hitting for average, power is the big ? Thomas Neal, ouch! Just ouch! Good peripheral numbers from Tanner.
High A San Jose Giants topped the Visalia Rawhide 6-4:
Francisco Peguero- 2 for 3, 2 2B, BB, SB(5). BA= .348.
Brandon Belt- 2 for 3, BB. BA= .353.
Charlie Culberson- 1 for 4, HR(1). BA= .190.
Eric Surkamp- 6 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4 K's.
Jason Stoffel- 1.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K's.
Peguero looks like he's just continuing his hot hitting from last year. Belt sure seems like a player. Nice start for Surkamp.
Low A The Augusta Greenjackets made 1 run stand up for a 1-0 victory over the Savannah Sand Gnats:
Hector Sanchez- 1 for 3, 2B. BA= .273.
Christopher Heston- 7 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Jose Casilla- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.
Jason Jarvis- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 0 K's, Save(2).
Sanchez scored the only run of the game. There were no RBI's. Heston has not allowed a run in 11 IP.

Any idea on MadBums pitch counts?
ReplyDeleteAlso, with all the bats we have in the system, do you foresee any Panda-like rises this year? You already mentioned Perez as a Runzler, but we need a Panda more than a Runzler...
ReplyDeleteValdez is the high ceiling reliever who I think could rocket.
ReplyDeleteOn offense, let's see, all the way from High A to the majors? Maybe Peguero or Adrianza? Brandon Crawford is off to a great start in AA. I could definitely see him in the majors before the year is out if Rent suffered an injury.
Bumgarner threw 77 pitches, 54 for strikes. Someone on mccoveychronicles.com reported that the Fresno radio guy reported his velocity in the high 80's to 91 MPH and hit 93 MPH once.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the pitch count, K's, BB's and reported velocity, I looks and sounds like he pitched better than the box score would make it appear. Perhaps he was tiring by the 5'th inning?
