Down on the Farm: 8/22/2022

 There were no games scheduled for full season league teams.

Complex Watch:

Will Wilson SS- 2 for 3, 2B.  BA= .500.  Looks like Wilson will play out the season at the complex?  Maybe he's working on something specific? 

Matt Higgins RF- 2 for 3.  BA= .344.  NDFA.

Derwin Laya PH/3B(ACL, 18 yo)- 1 for 1, HR(3).  BA= .176.

Ken Giles RHP- 1 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 2 K.  ERA= 18.00.  Yep, it's THAT Ken Giles.  Giants signed him to a minor league deal after he was DFA'd by the Mariners(who else?) and he elected free agency.  Mariners got tired of waiting for him to fully recover from TJ surgery 2. years ago.  Not sure if this deal carries over to next season or not.  Giants have signed several of those wraparound minor league deals under FZ.

Carson Whisenhunt LHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 0.00.  Pretty sure Whisenhunt can be a fast mover in the system, but you never know.

Mikell Manzano RHP(ACL, 19 ho)- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 2.93.  81 K in 55 IP.  Strong candidate to make DrB's 2023 Giants top 50 Prospects list.

Patrick Hilson LF(ACL, 21 yo)- 3 for 5, 2 HR(9).  BA= .296. Breakout season for Hilson.  Too little, too late?  This is his 5'th season in the organization counting 2020.

Nomar Medina LHP(ACL, 19 yo)- 5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 2.22.  70 K's in 65 IP.

William Kempner RHP- 2.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 2.70.  3'rd round draft pick.

Samir Chires RHP(DSL, 18 yo)- 6 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 2.45.  

Saul Bautista RF(DSL, 18 yo)- 2 for 3, 2 2B, BB, SB(17).  BA= .281.  Switch-hitter who has improved his numbers significantly from age 17 last year.

Guillermo Williamson 1B(DSL, 18 yo)- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(7).  BA= .231.  True outcomes.  Not necessarily a good thing for a kid this young.  The power is intriguing, though.
