Down on the Farm: 6/29/2017

AAA  Sacramento River Cats outslugged the El Paso Chihuahuas 11-10:

Jarrett Parker CF- 1 for 4, HR(1), BB.  BA= .267.
Chris Shaw LF- 4 for 5, 2 HR(6).  BA= .292.
Matt Winn C- 3 for 3, 2 2B, HR(1), BB, SF.  BA= 1.000.
DJ Snelton LHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 2.66.
Derek Law RHP- 1 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 0 BB, 0 K, Save(1). ERA= 7.71.

-Chris Shaw made BA's Hot Sheet this week.
-Winn gets the promo to AAA and has a day.  Not sure why he went up.  Trevor Brown is listed on the 7-day DL and only other backup for Fedex is Ryan Matranga.  So maybe in injury to Brownie created the need?
-Another strong appearance for Snelton.  Is he putting himself in position for tryout with the big club?
-Derek Law is apparently healthy, but suddenly very messed up.
