Down on the Farm: 6/7/2024

 AAA:  Sacramento River Cats cooled off the Albuquerque Isotopes 6-2:

Hunter Bishop LF- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .286.
Luis Matos CF- 2 for 4.  BA= .220.
Jakson Reetz C- 2 for 3, 2B, BB.  BA= .273.
Carson Whisenhunt LHP- 5.2 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 5.47.
Nick Garcia RHP- 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 5.40.
Juan Sanchez LHP- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 2.87.

Hunter Bishop's slash line for May was .276/.353/.448.  This first 7 games of the month were with AA Richmond.  He's at .316/.381/.421 so far in June.  It would be a huge validation of FZ's tenure as POBO if Bishop keeps this going into a significant MLB career.

AA:  Altoona Curve defeated the Richmond Flying Squirrels 3-1:

Carter Howell LF- 1 for 4, HR(2).  BA= .281.
Andy Thomas C- 2 for 4.  BA= .252.
Dylan Cumming RHP- 4 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 1.13.
Evan Gates RHP- 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 1.42.
Ben Madison RHP- 2.2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 7 K's.  ERA= 3.18.

A+:  Tri-Cities Dust Devils topped the Eugene Emeralds 5-2:

Matt Higgins RF- 3 for 4, BB, SB(7).  BA= .259.
Justin Wishkoski 3B- 2 for 4, BB.  BA= .279.
Turner Hill CF- 1 for 4, 2B, BB.  BA= .244.
Manuel Mercedes RHP- 5 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 3 K's, GO/AO= 10/2.  ERA= 5.25.

A:  Stockton Ports edged out the San Jose Giants 3-2:

Scott Bandura CF- 1 for 3, BB, SB(4).  BA= .246.
Justin Bench SS- 1 for 3, 2B, BB, SB(1).  BA= .286.
Ubert Mejias RHP- 5.2 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 3.35.
Luis Perdomo LHP- 2.1 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 3 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 1.32.

ACL:  Giants bludgeoned the Rangers 14-3:

Maui Ahuna DH- 1 for 3, HR(1).  BA= .333.
Jack Payton C- 1 for 2, 2B, BB, 2 HBP.  BA= .375.
Jose Ramos 2B- 1 for 2, 3B, BB.  BA= .250.
Lisbel Diaz RF- 2 for 4, HR(3), BB.  BA= .351.
Alix Hernandez RHP- 4 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 4.60.

Keep Lisbel Diaz on your radar screen.  At 18 yo I think he is the youngest player on the ACL Giants roster.

DSL:  Giants Black outscored Padres Brown 8-4:

Angel Guzman RF(18 yo):  2 for 4.  BA= .375.
Carlos Concepcion DH(18 yo)- 2 for 2, 2 BB.  BA= .556.
Juan Colorado 3B(17 yo)- 3 for 3, HBP.  BA= .500.
Vinicius Dos Santos LF(17 yo)- 3 for 4, 2B.  BA= .625.
Jose Gonzalez RHP(21 yo)- 4 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

Giants DSL teams are obliterating opponents with mostly 17 and 18 yo players.  Really good sign for the long term future.

  1. Given that ERA is not the "deciding" stat, Carson Whisenhunt ERA by the month:
    April: 5 starts 16.1 IP, 7.71 ERA, WHIP 1.96
    May: 5 starts 21.0 IP, 5.57 ERA, WHIP 1.48
    June: 2 starts 10.2 IP, 3.38 ERA, WHIP 1.50

  2. Bishop partial stats in 2022 - 13 hrs 235 BA 380 abs. 2023 -DNP I believe he had TJ surgery.. 2024 good start in AA. Moved to AAA I think partially due to all the call-ups in AAA and he continues to hold his own. Farm director said Bishop still has a chance to have a good MLB career with Giants. This is what makes the minor leagues fascinating to follow! Hope he stays healthy all season and gets everyday abs. I'll root for him to make it to majors since he's been through a lot injury wise and the team benefits.
