AAA:  Sacramento River Cats pounded the El Paso Chihuahuas 14-6.

Tyler Fitzgerald CF- 3 for 5, BB, SB(21).  BA= .284.
Heliot Ramos RF- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(9), BB.  BA= .307.
David Villar 3B- 1 for 3, 2B, 2 BB.  BA= .289.
Trenton Brooks LF- 2 for 5, HR(17), BB.  BA= .297.
Armando Alvarez DH- 3 for 5, HR(13), SB(6).  BA= .316.

AA:  Portland Sea Dogs defeated the Richmond Flying Squirrels 6-4.

Victor Bericoto RF- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(4).  BA= .211.
Ryan Murphy RHP- 5 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 4.57.
Hunter Dula RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

After a slow start in AA, Victor Bericoto has a slash line of .268/.293/.451 in August.  Maybe not that impressive but the EL it's after a midseason promotion to a tough hitting environment and Bericoto is just 21 yo.  Hunter Dula makes his first appearance in AA a success.

A+:  Eugene Emeralds crushed the Hillsboro Hops 14-0.  

Grant McCray RF- 2 for 6, 2B.  BA= .251.
Carter Howell CF- 3 for 6, 2B.  BA= .265.
Aeverson Arteaga SS- 2 for 6.  BA= .237.
Luis Toribio 1B- 2 for 5, 2B, BB.  BA= .230.
Andrew Kachel DH- 2 for 5, 2B.  BA= .400.
Zach Morgan C- 3 for 4, HR(2), BB.  BA= .345.
Damon Dues 2B/3B- 2 for 3, BB, SF, SB(22).  BA= .313.
Trevor McDonald RHP- 5 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 0.38.

A:  Modesto Nuts beat the San Jose Giants 14-4.

Diego Velasquez SS- 1 for 3, 2B, BB.  BA= .309.
Bryce Eldridge RF- 1 for 4, BB.  BA= .250.
Scott Bandura LF- 0 for 1, 3 BB.  BA= .325.
Marques Johnson RHP- 1.1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 0.00.

Bryce Eldridge makes his full season league debut.

Complex leagues regular season is over.  It does not appear that any Giants affiliates are involved in postseason competition.

  1. Since McDonald is only in A+, will the Giants need to protect him in the Rule 5 draft? He's doing very well but in just 24 IP. Would someone put him on their ML roster for a year?

    1. Giants have some tough Rule 5 Draft decisions coming up. Fortunately I don't think they have anyone from the 2020 draft to worry about since Bailey and Harrison are already added. McCray, Bericoto and McDonald are the 3 I can think of now who will be tough calls but there may well be others. I have not gone through the list systematically.

  2. I agree why is Heliot Ramos in the minor leagues? I am so perplexed why they called up Meckler using a 40man spot, instead of giving Ramos a chance.

    I have to wonder if he's in the doghouse.

    1. I think it's quite obvious Heliot is in the doghouse.
