Down on the Farm: 5/15/2015

AAA  Sacramento River Cats edged out the Las Vegas 51's 2-1:

Brett Jackson(RF)- 1 for 3, BB, SB(2).  BA= .288.
Trevor Brown(Catcher)- 1 for 4, HR(1).  BA= .185.
Robert Coello(RHP)- 6 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 3.47.
Erik Cordier(RHP)- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 2.00.
Steven Matz(LHP, 51's)- 7.2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 9 K's.  ERA= 1.80.

Coello has pitched well enough in the PCL to gain consideration if a future emergency starter is needed.  Isn't Cordier up against a rehab deadline in the near future?  Matz is a top LHP prospect for the Mets with some observers thinking he might get called up ahead of Syndergaard.

AA  Richmond Flying Squirrels pounded the Bowie Baysox 8-4:

Kelby Tomlinson(2B)- 2 for 4, 2B, BB, SB(7).  BA= .293.
Mac Williamson(RF)- 2 for 4, BB.  BA= .295.
Ricky Oropesa(1B)- 2 for 3, HBP.  BA= .255.
Myles Schroder(CF-1B)- 3 for 5.  BA= .259.
Jackson Williams(Catcher)- 3 for 5.  BA= .177.
Rando Moreno(SS)- 1 for 3, BB.  BA= .294.

Moreno is doing surprisingly well in AA after a disastrous 2014.

High A  Visalia Rawhide whipped the San Jose Giants 6-4:

Martin Agosta(RHP)- 4.1 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 4.50.
Mason McVay(LHP)- 2 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 4.15.

Agosta got the start here.  He seems to pitch better out of the pen.
