Down on the Farm: 8/26/2019

AAA  Reno Aces pounded the Sacramento River Cats 9-5:

Mauricio Dubon SS- 1 for 5, HR(20).  BA= .302.
Cristhian Adames 3B- 2 for 4, 3B, SB(2).  BA= .299.
Johnny Cueto RHP- 4.1 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 6.23.
Kyle Barraclough RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 13.50.

Johnny Cueto said after the game he needs to pitch more before being activated.

AA  Richmond Flying Squirrels outscored the Erie Seawolves 7-6:

Bryce Johnson LF- 3 for 5.  BA= .249.
Joey Bart C- 4 for 5, 2B.  BA= .259.
Heliot Ramos CF- 2 for 5, 2 2B.  BA= .217.
Zach Houchins 3B- 2 for 4, HR(10).  BA= .242.
Sean Hjelle RHP- 5 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 4 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 7.08.
Sam Moll LHP- 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 2.65.
Jamie Callahan RHP- 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K, Save(1).  ERA= 0.00.

It's taken awhile, but Joey Bart and Heliot Ramos seem to be acclimating to AA.  Hopefully this sets them up for a strong start next season.  Giants are going to have some interesting roster decisions this winter.  Sam Moll was a minor league phase Rule 5 draft pick, which I think makes him a minor league FA this winter if he's not added to the 40 man roster.

  1. Saw the game and Cueto wasn't sharp. He'll have one more start in the Cats' regular season; any starts after that will have to be in the post-season.

  2. A bright moment in the Sacramento game: Cristhian Adames has a straight steal of home. Video on McChron.
    Chris I'm-still-here Shaw got a double while 5 of 8 starting position players go hitless.

  3. Interesting that Dubon gets the call up now. Not that he isn't deserving, but that it happened before the September roster expansion and with Gennett, Avalino, Crawford, and Solano all on the roster right now. Does this mean that the Scooter Gennett experiment is coming to an end?
