Rough introduction to the PCL for Tugboat. Someone asked which River Cats prospects were particularly notable. This wasn't a great game for scouting hitting prospects but I would pay attention to Drew Cavanaugh, Scott Bandura and Aeverson Arteaga on the hitting side. Wilkinson and Carson Whisenhunt on the pitching side.

i told a friend that Tugboat would be starting for Richmond the other day and then i noticed he was replaced as SP. i immediately assumed he was hurt. did not know he had been moved up to AAA. hope this start was just a case of nerves and travel fatigue, etc. -es
ReplyDeleteArteaga and Bandura are guys who I think will eventually play in the majors briefly but poorly as a fringe player that bounces around the minors/majors and never finds MLB success. Whisenhunt and Tugboat are for sure two guys to watch. Cavanaugh is very intriguing. It’s hard to take him seriously because of how late he was drafted in the draft but there’s no denying that he’s been impressive in our minor league system in his short time here. Definitely rooting for him to be legit but I just have my doubts because of draft stock and also because of how many players I’ve seen do great in the minors but not be good enough to be a major leaguer
ReplyDeleteThanks, Doc -- we're in Sacramento for two games, so we'll keep our eyes out for Cavanaugh, Bandura, Arteaga, Wilkinson and Whisenhunt.
