AAA Sacramento River Cats blanked the Reno Aces 4-0:
Kelby Tomlinson 2B- 2 for 3, 2B, BB, 2 SB(12). BA= .286.
Grant Green 3B- 2 for 4, 2B. BA= .306.
Chris Stratton RHP- 7 IP, 6 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 K's. ERA= 4.02.
Stratton is 7-2 with an ERA of 2.44 over his last 10 starts. He has 56 K's against 22 BB in 62.2 IP, in that span.

AA Richmond Flying Squirrels crushed the Hartford Yard Goats 11-0:
Steven Duggar CF- 2 for 5, 2 2B. BA= .316.
Tyler Horan LF- 2 for 5, 2 HR(12). BA= .260.
Chris Shaw 1B- 1 for 4, 2B, BB. BA= .242.
Andrew Suarez LHP- 7 IP, 6 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 4.25.
Joe Nathan RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Suarez has an ERA of 2.78 over his last 10 starts. Horan is hitting .301 with a SLG% of 603 for the month of August. It sure seems like the Giants might try to find a way to get Joe Nathan onto the 40 man roster for the stretch run.

High A San Jose Giants edged out the Bakersfield Blaze 3-2:
Miguel Gomez 3B- 2 for 3, 2B, BB. BA= .260.
Jordan Johnson RHP- 6 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 8 K's. ERA= 5.33.
Pat Young RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 4.10.
Tyler Cyr RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K. ERA= 2.57.
Gomez is hitting .357 over his last 10 games.
*********************************************************************************
Low A Augusta Greenjackets squeezed past the Lexington Legends 2-1:
Junior Arias DH- 2 for 4, 3B. BA= .272.
Jean Angomas LF- 1 for 3, 2B, SF. BA= .254.
Heath Slatton RHP- 5 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4 K's. ERA= 2.66.
Conner Kaden RHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 3.51.
Ryan Koziol RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K. ERA= 2.70.
Angomas is hitting .299 in the second half. Slatton pitched out of the bullpen most of the season but has started in his last 2 appearances, allowing just 1 ER in 10 IP with 8 K's and 2 BB's. Something to file away for next season. He just moved up from HM to somewhere in the back end of my top 50 Giants prospects list.
*********************************************************************************
Short Season Salem-Keizer Volcanoes topped the Vancouver Canadians 5-4:
Manuel Geraldo SS- 1 for 3, 2B, 2 BB, SB(13). BA= .296.
Melvin Adon RHP- 6 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 0 BB, 7 K's. ERA= 5.78.
Geraldo is hitting .327 for the month of August. Adon has had an up and down season but has that high 90's FB and finishes on a strong note. Another sleeper in the system.

I understand Garcia, Jones and Cole going to the AFL this year, but Eliezer Zambrano? Can you think of why?
ReplyDeleteThis is just my opinion, but I get the distinct impression that the Giants would not be at all unhappy if the AFL just disappeared. I tend to believe the only reason they send any players is because they are contractually required to. They tend to send players there who have had injuries and need extra innings or AB's. They don't like sending players who have put in full seasons of work already. Who knows why they are sending Zambrano? Maybe the Scorpions needed another catcher from them and Zambrano was the only one they were willing to let go?
