AAA: Albuquerque Isotopes at Sacramento River Cats Postponed.
This was the 4'th postponement or cancellation of a River Cats game already this season.
AA: Richmond Flying Squirrels defeated the Somerset Patriots 8-5.
Scott Bandura LF- 2 for 5, 2B, SB(4). BA= .328.
Sabin Ceballos 3B- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(3). BA= .271.
Diego Velasquez 2B- 1 for 2, HR(1), BB, Sac, SB(3). BA= .257.
Adrian Sugastey C- 2 for 4. BA= .241.
Tyler Vogel RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K, Save(5). ERA= 0.00.
Jacob Lombard Jr SS(Patriots)- 2 for 3, HR(4), BB. BA= .382.
We're not used to seeing the Squirrels win games by outhitting and outscoring opponenents. George Lombard Jr is a former first round draft pick by the Yankees. His younger brother, Jacob is a potential first round pick by the Giants at #4 overall in the upcoming draft.
A+: Eugene Emeralds topped the Hillsboro Hops 5-3.
Dakota Jordan CF- 2 for 4. BA= .328.
Trevor Cohen DH- 1 for 4, BB, SB(10). BA= .233.
Lisbel Diaz RF- 1 for 4, HR(2). BA= .205.
Charlie McDaniel LHP- 5 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 4 K's, 5/2 GO/AO. ERA= 0.82.
Cade Vernon RHP- 2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 3.27.
Ben Peterson RHP- 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's, 3/0 GO/AO. ERA= 2.25.
For people who have high hopes for Dakota Jordan, he is not disappointing so far.
A: San Jose Giants blasted the Ontario Tower Buzzers 12-2.
Cam Maldonado RF- 3 for 4, 2B, SF, 2 SB(6). BA= .345.
Hayden Jatczak 1B- 2 for 3, HR(2), 2 BB. BA= .321.
Damian Bravo LF- 2 for 4, 2B. BA= .246.
Jeremiah Jenkins DH- 2 for 3, 2 BB. BA= .343.
Andy Polanco CF- 1 for 4, BB, SB(6). BA= .327.
Keyner Martinez RHP- 5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 7 K's. ERA= 5.40.
Jose T. Perez RHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K's. ERA= 6.14.
Cam Maldonado is suddenly the hottest player in the Giants farm system. 7'th round draft pick last year. Reminder A ball is a conservative placement for a draft pick out of college ball.
Great outing by K. Martinez..validating all the accolades he was getting this off-season.
ReplyDeleteOne question, do the giants have a single Viable SP above A /A+ Ball that can move up and help with any consistency? I want WHiz to be that guy..but...and after that..nobody seems worthy of trust.. I know you don't draft by position, but an arm might be nice this June--if it's worthy af a #4 pick.

Good question about pitching in the upper minors. Looks to me like Carson Seymour is the best they have in AAA. Maybe Blade Tidwell could be stretched back out? I am starting to really like the idea of drafting Jackson Flora at #4.
DeleteI disagree!!! They need to continue to draft offense and rely on FA for their top tier pitching. Bats don’t want to sign here but it’s a pitchers paradise. Develop the offense and buy the pitching.
DeleteThat is a legitimate take but top tier pitching talent is horrendously expensive on the open market.
Delete... but I agree teams should always take the Best Player Available in the first round and sort out the logjams later.
DeleteAfter the near lock of Cholowsky, and depending on what the Rays and Twins do, the Giants figure to have a chance at either of Flora, Lackey or Emerson. I’d be happy with any of them.
