Down on the Farm: 8/15/2015

AAA  Sacramento River Cats outlasted the Round Rock Express 3-2 in 13 innings:

Darren Ford(CF)- 3 for 5, 2B, BB, 2 SB(27).  BA= .268.
Jarrett Parker(RF)- 2 for 5,  2 2B.  BA= .281.
Clayton Blackburn(RHP)- 6 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 3 K's, GO/AO= 12/3.  ERA= 3.28.
Steven Okert(LHP)- 1.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 B, 1 K.  ERA= 3.83.
Cody Hall(RHP)- 3.1 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 3.73.

Remember the 2010 season and the time Darren Ford essentially won a game all himself with his speed on the basepaths?  Don't be shocked if Ford is one of the September roster additions.

AA  Altoona Curve defeated the Richmond Flying Squirrels 5-3:

Mitch Delfino(3B)- 2 for 3, BB.  BA= .257.
Joe Biagini(RHP)- 5 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 3 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 2.59.

High A  Lancaster Jethawks downed the San Jose Giants 3-1:

Jose Reyes(RHP)- 6 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 6.75.
Dan Slania(RHP)- 2 IP, 2 H,  0 R, 0 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 2.86.

Third QS in a row for Reyes.

Low A  Augusta Greenjackets edged out the Asheville Tourists 3-2:

Johneshwy Fargas(CF)- 1 for 3, BB, SB(59).  BA= .283.
Jonah Arenado(3B)- 3 for 5, 2B.  BA= .268.
Skyler Ewing(1B)- 2 for 3, BB.  BA= .243.
Matt Winn(Catcher)- 2 for 4, HR(1).  BA= .350.
Michael Santos(RHP)- 4 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 2.55.
Eury Sanchez(RHP)- 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 2.31.
Carlos Diaz(LHP)- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's, Save(5).  ERA= 1.94.

Short Season  Spokane Indians topped the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes 4-3 in 11 innings:

Ronnie Jebavy(CF)- 3 for 5, SB(18).  BA= .251.
Chris Shaw(1B)- 2 for 5, HR(6).  ERA= .281.
CJ Hinojosa(SS)- 2 for 5.  BA= .302.
Luis Pino(RHP)- 6 IP, 5 H, 3 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 0.33.
Eric Sim(RHP)- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 3.22.

I'm thinking Shaw is going to be the starting 1B for SJ next season and have a huge breakout.

*********************************************************************************

Rookie AZL  Giants blanked the Cubs 5-0:

Tyler Brown(2B)- 3 for 4, HR(1).  BA= .409.
Grant Watson(LHP)- 5 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 0.68.
Kendry Melo(RHP)- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 3.75.

Not sure why Watson is still pitching in Arizona.  Senior draftee out of UCLA.  I think he may be a sleeper in the system.

DSL  Rockies blasted the Giants 7-2:

Manuel Geraldo(SS-2B, 18 yo)- 2 for 4, 2B, SB(17).  BA= .329.
Norwith Gudino(RHP, 19 yo)- 5 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 4 K's, GO/AO= 9/2.  ERA= 3.81.

I thought Geraldo should have been in the States this season.  I'll definitely be looking for him next year.  I like his size for a SS, speed, switch-hitting ability.  I think he also has some future power potential.
