Down on the Farm: 8/30/2019

AAA  Sacramento River Cats edged out the El Paso Chihuahuas 2-1:

Aramis Garcia LF- 1 for 4, HR(16).  BA= .271.
Kyle Barraclough RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 11.12.
Melvin Adon RHP-1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 15.43.

Garcia has played 35 innings in LF this season over 5 games, 4 starts.  Seems like he is a viable option for back up catcher next season if Vogt moves on? After a rough start, Barraclough is whittling his ERA down.
