Down on the Farm: 5/25/2018

AAA  Albuquerque Isotopes exploded for 10 runs in the 9'th inning to destroy the Sacramento River Cats 12-2:

Hunter Pence LF- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .321.
Chase d'Arnaud 2B- 2 for 4, HR(7).  BA= .286.
Daniel Camarena 6 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 1.50.

Giants have to make a decision on Hunter Pence pretty soon, no?  That should be interesting given that Bochy just declared Mac Williamson his starting LF and Gorkys Hernandez is the hottest hitter in the Giants lineup.  That leaves Gregor Blanco and Austin Jackson as the options for dropping if Pence rejoins the MLB team.  Daniel Camarena is a 25 yo lefty signed as a minor league FA after being released by the Yankees after posting a 5.08 ERA in 8 starts for Scranton-Wilkes Barre, their AAA team.  Overall,  his career minor league ERA is 3.74 in 577.2 IP.

AA  Akron Aeros outscored the Richmond Flying Squirrels 14-6:

Luigi Rodriguez RF- 3 for 4, SB(9).  BA= .409.
Jerry Sands 1B- 2 for 4, HR(7).  BA= .197.
Ronnie Jebavy CF- 1 for 3, BB, SB(8).  BA= .177.

Luigi!

A+  Lake Elsinore Storm edged out the San Jose Giants 3-2:

Sandro Fabian RF- 1 for 3, HR(5), HBP.  BA= .243.
Sandro Cabrera LHP- 6 IP, 7 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 3.20.

Nice night for the Sandros.  Sandro Fabian hits his second HR in as many days.  This was the first game Sandro Cabrera did not walk a batter this season. It was also his longest appearance of the season.
