Down on the Farm: 4/25/2025

AAA:  El Paso Chihuahuas outscored the Sacramento River Cats 9-8:

Grant McCray CF- 2 for 5, SF.  BA= .253.
Brett Wisely 2B- 1 for 3, 2B, 2 BB.  BA= .218.
Sergio Alcantara 3B- 2 for 2, 2B, 3 BB.  BA= .273.
Hunter Bishop DH- 2 for 5, HR(3), 5 RBI.  BA= .241.
Osleivis Basabe SS- 3 for 5.  BA= .260.
Carson Whisenhunt LHP- 3 IP, 9 H, 7 R, 3 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 5.09.

Bishop's HR was a grand slam.  This is the kind of line the Giants envisioned when they drafted him.  They have been few and far between.  Gametime weather was 85 degrees with a 7 MPH wind blowing out to RF.

AA:  Richmond Flying Squirrels at Akron Rubber Ducks postponed.

A+:  Eugene Emeralds shut down the Spokane Indians 2-0:

Thomas Gavello 3B- 2 for 3, HBP, SB(2).  BA= .269.
Shane Rademacher RHP- 5 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 0.47.
Esmerlin Vinicio LHP- 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 4.61.
Nicolas Herold RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

A promotion for Nicolas HeroldShane Rademacher was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2023 and has pitched well so far in his pro career.

A:  San Jose Giants destroyed the Fresno Grizzlies 17-0:

Carlos Gutierrez RF- 3 for 4, 3B, 2 BB, SB(6).  BA= .314.
Lisbel Diaz LF- 4 for 5, HR(2), BB.  BA= .325.
Drew Cavanaugh C- 1 for 3, 2B, 2 BB, SF.  BA= .291.
Walker Martin SS- 2 for 6, HR(1).  BA= .212.
Jean Carlos Sio 2B- 3 for 5, 2B.  BA= .291.  
Robert Hipwell 1B- 2 for 4, BB.  BA= .143.
Elian Rayo 3B- 2 for 4, BB.  BA= .212.
Greg Farone LHP- 5 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 0.51.
Ryan Slater RHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K's. ERA= 1.13.
Cade Vernon RHP- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

Wow!  Obviously a game to pad the ol' stat line, but this team has some really good players.  Gutierrez and Diaz at the top of the lineup are both young prospects who I think will be looking for a midseason promotion to A+.  Greg Farone might get promoted sooner. He seems like he might be too good for this level.
