AAA Sacramento River Cats outscored the Salt Lake City Bees 11-7:
Steven Duggar CF- 3 for 6, SB(7). BA= .253.
Mac Williamson LF- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(8). BA= .468.
Austin Slater 1B- 2 for 4, 2B, BB, SB(3). BA= .390.
Hunter Pence RF- 2 for 5. BA= .321.
Orlando Calixte 3B- 3 for 4, HR(6). BA= .276.
Ray Black RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 10.38.
Mac has 2 HR's in as many days since starting his rehab assignment. Sure would be nice to see him starting in LF for the Giants tomorrow. Steven Duggar has a 5 game hit streak in which he is 8 for 24. Austin Slater must be wondering what he has to do to get another shot with the bigly team. Hunter Pence is 12 for 28 in 7 games since he debuted his new batting stance. Just 2 of those 12 hits were XBH's, both doubles. Free Ray Black!

Low A Augusta Greenjackets beat the Greenville Drive 5-2:
Manuel Geraldo SS- 2 for 4, HR(4). BA= .301.
Rob Calabrese C- 1 for 2, 2B. BA= .200.
Garrett Cave RHP- 5 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 7 K's. ERA= 3.98.
Olbis Parra RHP- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 0 K. ERA= 2.70.
John Russell RHP- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 1.77.
I'm am cautiously bullish on Manuel Geraldo. If he can sustain this early season success, and he generally is better later in the season, I think he will do quite well in San Jose next season. Geraldo seems to have been around forever, but he's still just 21 yo. Garrett Cave has 35 K's in 31.2 IP, but also 25 BB's.

SF has 3 OFers with negative dWARs, low OBP, high K rates (>30%), and not hitting very good.
ReplyDeleteSacramento has 3 OFers with credible MLB experience hitting well, another hitting over .300 with some MLB experience, another with 10HRs, and another who's the future Giant CFer.
Then there's a 25-yo (sudden) PHENOM in Richmond who has no place to go because Sacramento has 6 OFers needing playing time.
This is probably a "good" problem to have because the solution seems quite clear!
FREE THE OFers
Manuel Geraldo "finally" clicks at Augusta after 2 not so promising tries at 19 and 20 yo. Interesting to watch his progression as he has been elevated after looking good at S-K only to "fail" at Augusta.
ReplyDeleteThis year he started in low A and has been picking it up as the year progressed.
Have your words, Doc, finally come home? Can he sustain this start -- he's now close to the "average" age? Still an exciting prospect because he's still young enough.
Is he "over the hump" and going to climb the ladder
Slater at 1B again I see
ReplyDeletePence and Mac back soon - Austin Jax to DL?
