Down on the Farm: 6/9//2011

AAA Fresno Grizzlies defeated the Salt Lake City Bees 6-2:

Tyler Graham(CF)- 1 for 3, BB, HBP, SB(30). BA= .283.
Pablo Sandoval(3B)- 2 for 3, BB, SF. BA= .500.
Brett Pill(1B-2B)- 2 for 4, 2B. BA= .291.
Brad Eldred(DH)- 1 for 3, 2B, 2 BB. BA= .298.
Dan Runzler(LHP)- 3.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 0.00.

Good to see Sandoval have a busy line. Runzler stretches it out a bit.

AA Richmond Flying Squirrels downed the Portland Sea Dogs 7-2:

Charlie Culberson(2B)- 1 for 4, HR(3), BB, SB(6). BA= .266.
Johnny Monell(DH)- 3 for 4, 2B, BB. BA= .221.
Eric Surkamp(LHP)- 6 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 6 K's. ERA= 1.88.
David Quinowski(LHP)- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 1.95.

A+ San Jose Giants crushed the Modesto Nuts 11-5:

Gary Brown(CF)- 2 for 5, 2B, HBP. BA= .360.
Ryan Cavan(2B)- 3 for 4, 2B, 2 BB. BA= .277.
Chris Dominguez(3B)- 4 for 5, 2B, BB. BA= .292.

Somebody asked if I though Brown would be promoted now that SJ has clinched the first half Cal League title. The answer is I really have no idea. I long since gave up trying to predict promotions of Giants prospects. I do think he SHOULD be promoted. I don't see what he has left to learn at SJ and am concerned that he may develop bad habits because it isn't enough of a challenge. Is anybody else impressed by Dominguez' ability to keep his BA up in the .280's- .290's?

Low A Savannah Sand Gnats topped the Augusta Greenjackets 5-3:

Carlos Willoughby(2B)- 2 for 2, 2B, BB. BA= .279.
Rafael Rodriguez(LF)- 2 for 4, 3B. BA= .246.
Mike Kickham(LHP)- 6 IP, 6 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 5 K's. ERA= 4.11.
Jacob Dunnington(RHP)- 0.1 IP, 4 H, 5 R, 1 BB, 1 K. ERA= 4.32
Edward Concepcion(RHP)- 1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 4.03.

RafRod showing signs of life. Nice start by Kickham. Rough outing for Dunnington how has mostly pitched well.

DSL Yankees1 beat the Giants 9-5:

Royel Astacio(1B, 17 yo)- 2 for 4, HR(1), SB(1). BA= .273.
Jorge Lopez(CF, 19 yo)- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(1). BA= .250.
Emmanuel Hernandez(DH, 17 yo)- 2 for 3, BB. BA= .375.
Rando Moreno(SS, 19 yo)- 2 for 4, 2B. BA= .333.
Adalberto Mejia(LHP, 17 yo)- 5 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 7 K's. ERA= 1.13

I think Mejia is a legit prospect. He's a 6 figure bonus baby, age appropriate for the league, nice size at 6'3", 195 lbs. He now has a K/BB = 17/3 over 16 IP,
