AAA Sacramento River Cats outscored the Las Vegas 51's 8-7:
Slade Heathcott CF- 2 for 4, BB, SB(7). BA= .267.
Jae-Gyun Hwang 3B- 1 for 5, HR(11). BA= .287.
Chris Shaw LF- 2 for 5. BA= .291.
Casey Kelley RHP- 6 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 5 K's. ERA= 4.46.
-Who would you rather have on the 40 man roster, Slade Heathcott or Orlando Calixte? Trevor Brown?
-Hwang is off the 40 man and therefore won't be a September callup.

AA Richmond Flying Squirrels edged out the Altoona Curve 4-3 in 11 innings:
Aramis Garcia C- 2 for 5. BA= .280.
Hunter Cole RF- 1 for 3, 3B, BB. BA= .239.
Dan Slania RHP- 5.2 IP, 8 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 3.59.

Inland Empire 66'ers downed the San Jose Giants 5-3:
Jalen Miller 2B- 2 for 4. BA= .226.
Dominic Mazza LHP- 6.1 IP, 6 H, 5 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 7.71.
Will LaMarche RHP- 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 3.40.
-I am sure most prospect analysts will say Miller was overmatched in the Cal League. My take: He is very young for the league and kept his head above water. Don't give up on him.

Low A Augusta Greenjackets were idle.

How about who to like OFF the 40-man roster?
ReplyDeleteSandoval, Brown, Morse, and a short leash on Calixte -- see how he does, he is developing but at 26 next year he's about out of time. His 2017 with the River Cats has not been eye-opening, he has a little pop but doesn't walk and Ks too much. If he'd lay off some of the pitches out of the strike zone, be might hit .270, and that would be pretty good. Don't think he's in San Francisco to learn the strike zone, though.
I'd like to see Heathcott -- I know the Giants know a lot better than I do what they have there, but why do they have him and why did they promote him to Sacramento.
ReplyDeleteHe's the most likely CFer close to being major league ready -- he's been there and did OK. It appears, anyway.
