Down on the Farm: 5/23/2018

AAA  Las Vegas 51's edged out the Sacramento River Cats 4-3:

Mac Williamson LF- 1 for 2, 3B, BB, SF.  BA= .446.
Hunter Pence RF- 2 for 4.  BA= .329.
Dereck Rodriguez RHP- 6 IP, 7 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 0 BB, 7 K's.  ERA= 3.40.
DJ Snelton LHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.   ERA= 4.60.
Manny Parra LHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB,  1 K.  ERA= 2.55.

The Giants continue to troll their "Lunatic Fringe" by keeping Mac, Slater and Pence in AAA.  At least 1 of those guys could almost certainly help the Giants right now.  If the Giants need SP help before Bum is ready, Dereck Rodriguez looks like the guy.
