Justin Garza RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Wind was blowing in from CF at 5 MPH campared to blowing out at 4 MPH on Tuesday when the Cats lost 14-2. Brett Wisely continues to carry the lineup.
AA: Akron Rubber Ducks downed the Richmond Flying Squirrels 8-3:
Diego Velasquez 2B- 1 for 2, 2 BB. BA= .333.
Justin Wishkoski 3B- 1 for 3, 2B, BB. BA= .333.
Zach Morgan C- 2 for 4. BA= .500.
Manuel Mercedes RHP- 1.2 IP, 5 H, 5 R, 4 BB, 0 K. ERA= 27.00.
Nick Sinacola RHP- 3.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 6 K's. ERA= 2.70.
Braxton Roxby RHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Nick Morreale RHP- 2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 4.50.
Travis Bazzana 2B(Rubber Ducks): 4 for 5, 2B, HR(1). BA= .750.
Manuel Mercedes looks the part of a MLB SP but his heavy sinker/contact/GB approach seems to get barreled way too often. The first inning went LD single, LD triple, BB, HR, line drive double play. Not much the BABIP gods can do to help with that. Last year's draft looks like a mother lode of hitters.
A+: Hillsboro Hops buried the Eugene Emeralds 12-5:
Bo Davidson CF- 2 for 5, 2B. BA= .333.
James Tibbs III RF- 1 for 4, HR(1), BB. BA= .500.
Jonah Cox DH- 1 for 4, 3B. BA= .444.
Scott Bandura LF- 2 for 3, BB. BA= .667.
Onil Perez C- 1 for 3, BB. BA= .143.
Although the Giants are being more cautious with their placement of first round draft pick James Tibbs III, he looks like a future MLB hitter too.
A: Modesto Nuts edged out the San Jose Giants 3-2:
Dakota Jordan CF- 1 for 3, BB, SB(1). BA= .167.
Greg Farone LHP- 3.2 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 6 K's. ERA= 2.45.
Ubert Mejias RHP- 2.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Evan Gray RHP- 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Farone was the Giants 7'th round draft pick in 2024. Gray was selected in round 15.
Giants have a pair of RH Mercedes named Juan (parked in Sacramento) and Manuel (parked in Richmond).
ReplyDeleteBoth have taken some dents in their games this year, but with such premium name value, we can hope they don't depreciate too much.
to go with pairs of Haydens & Dylans, plus the famous Carson trio in an overall bizarrely high concentration up & down org. of SPs with "n" ending names
DeleteLet us assume the Giants call for a left-handed pitcher later this year. Who would you choose, Whisenhunt or Harrison?
ReplyDeleteThat's easy. Harrison.
DeleteDo you think Harrison could be a left-handed closer?
DeleteSure, Harrison could be a Closer but I think the Giants want him to be a SP in the long run. Doesn't mean he couldn't be used in that role in an emergency.
