AAA Albuquerque Isotopes outlasted the Sacramento River Cats 6-5 in 13 innings:
Wynton Bernard CF- 3 for 7, SB(4). BA= .182.
Jae-Gyun Hwang 1B- 2 for 7, 3B. BA= .275.
Ryder Jones 3B- 1 for 6, HR(6). BA= .272.
Mac Williamson RF- 1 for 6, HR(4). BA= .266.
Chris Shaw LF- 2 for 5, 2B, BB. BA= .310.
Trevor Brown C/2B- 2 for 5, 2B, HBP. BA= .156.
Juniel Querecuto SS- 2 for 5, 2B, BB. BA= .250.
Dan Slania RHP- 5 IP, 7 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 4 K's. ERA= 8.05.
DJ Snelton LHP- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 5.40.
Roberto Gomez RHP- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K. ERA= 5.79.
Slater was called up and will be activated for tonight's game. Giants beat writers seem to think the Giants are in full fledged youth movement mode and that Hwang, Jones and Shaw may get MLB looks in the near future. Hopefully Mac gets in a groove and gets another shot too. Crawford and Posey may be the only position players not available at the trade deadline. Gomez' ERA is 3.46 over his last 10 appearances.

AA Richmond Flying Squirrels squeaked past the Hartford Yard Goats 2-1 in 7 innings:
Slade Heathcott CF- 1 for 2, 2 BB, SB(6). BA= .274.
Hunter Cole RF- 2 for 3, HR(3). BA= .272.
Matt Gage LHP- 6 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 3.68.
Tyler Cyr RHP- 1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K, Save(4). ERA= 2.04.

High A Lake Elsinore Storm defeated the San Jose Giants 5-3:
Hunter Pence RF- 1 for 4. BA= .333.
Heath Quinn LF/RF- 1 for 4, HR(5). BA= .290.
Dillon Dobson 1B- 1 for 4, HR(8). BA= .252.
Jonah Arenado 3B- 3 for 4, 2B, HR(4). BA= 253.
Ryan Howard SS- 2 for 4. BA= .322.
Matt Krook LHP- 5.1 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 9 K's. ERA= 6.82.
Carlos Diaz LHP- 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's. ERA= 2.88.
Arenado is red hot! Krook has an ERA of 3.38 over his last 4 starts with 21 K's in 21.1 IP. He has allowed 7 BB's in 16.1 IP over his last 3 starts. Still not a great walk rate but improving.

Low A Augusta Greenjackets blanked the Lexington Legends 4-0:
Ashford Fulmer LF- 2 for 4, 2B, BB. BA= .237.
Skyler Ewing C- 2 for 3, HR(3), HBP. BA= .231.
Jose Vizcaino Jr 1B- 2 for 4, 2B. BA= .321.
Jacob Heyward DH- 2 for 4, 2 2B. BA= .246.
Garrett Williams LHP- 6.1 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 9 K's. ERA= 0.93.
Patrick Ruotolo RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 1.53.
Heyward is hitting .316 over his last 10 games. Look at Garrett Williams! 21 K's, 6 BB's in 19.1 IP. Williams and Krook have ceilings as high as any pitchers in the organization.

My Friend, may I ask you a question? When you say "Giants beat writers seem to think the Giants are in full fledged youth movement mode and that Hwang, Jones and Shaw may get MLB looks in the near future" and "Crawford and Posey may be the only position players not available at the trade deadline", how do you know this?
ReplyDeleteThat is to say, do you know H. Schulman, A. Baggerly, C. Haft, et al, personally? So you speak with them off the record? Or are you taking what they say on social media (Twitter, blogs, etc.) and trying to devine what they mean from what they say? Or is there some other source you have from which you draw these conclusions?
I believe you may be correct, but I would like to know how you arrive at this conclusion - especially where names are involved.
Many thanks,

This is a blog, not a newspaper, but if you have to know, check out Chris Haft's story on Slater on sfgiants.com 6/1/2027.
DeleteI read that article. Which provoked my request on a different post.
Delete….er 6/1/2017.
DeleteIf the rebuilding has begun I would like to see the Giants take a chance on some higher upside picks in this year's draft.
ReplyDeleteWell, higher upside is not always better in the draft. The Twins, to name one team have been drafting upside for seemingly decades and most of them have never panned out. Phillies have had a similar draft strategy, at least until the new GM took over a couple of years ago.
DeleteAt the same time, I won't be a happy camper if the Giants draft another gap-hitting college SS like Logan Warmoth in the first round.
This is probably the end for Ruggiano. Nice try, but age catches up with everyone.
ReplyDeleteHunter Pence will be back soon, that won't require a slot on the 40-man, but will mean another OFer will leave the active roster: Hernandez or Hill (OFer?), hopefully not Slater or Calixte. Stay young!
