Down on the Farm: 8/28/2016

AAA  Sacramento River Cats outscored the Fresno Grizzlies 8-6:

Kelby Tomlinson 2B- 1 for 4, BB, SB(10).  BA= .288.
Austin Slater CF- 3 for 4, HR(13), BB.  BA= .302.
Miguel Olivo C- 2 for 4, HR(10).  BA= .250.
Juan Ciriaco DH- 2 for 5, 2B, HR(4).  BA= .276.
Tyler Rogers RHP- 3.1 IP, 7 H, 6 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 5.88.
Matt Reynolds LHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 0.00.
Steven Okert LHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 3.88.
Jean Mach RHP- 1.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K, Save(12).  ERA= 3.72.

Not much more to say about Austin Slater.  I would think he would be a candidate for the Arizona Fall League then a candidate for LF for the Giants next year if they don't re-sign Pagan and Mac or Parker don't grab it.

AA Akron Rubber Ducks sank the Richmond Flying Squirrels 8-2:

Steven Duggar CF- 2 for 4, BB, SB(8).  BA= .318.
Christian Arroyo SS- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .276.
Tyler Horan DH- 3 for 4.  BA= .258.
San Coonrod RHP- 5.1 IP, 7 H, 7 R, 1 BB, 8 K's.  ERA= 3.24.

Duggar would be another AFL candidate, but there are only so many slot available to each organization.  Arroyo would be another choice but he went last year and he seems like he maybe just needs to rest.  We've spent much of the season wondering how Coonrod gets great results with so few strikeouts.  Today's line is just the opposite.

High A  Visalia Rawhide whipped the San Jose Giants 10-3:

Ronnie Jebavy CF- 2 for 5, 2B.  BA= .251.

Low A Augusta Greenjackets defeated the Rome Braves 5-3:

Johneshwy Fargas RF- 2 for 4, BB.  BA= .282.
Seth Harrison LF- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .259.
John Polonius 3B- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .211.
Dominic Mazza LHP- 5 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 3.89.

*********************************************************************************

Short Season  Eugene Emeralds topped the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes 6-5:

Manuel Geraldo 3B- 2 for 5.  BA= .293.
Gio Brusa LF- 1 for 5, HR(10).  BA= .260.
Ryan Howard SS- 2 for 3, HR(4), BB.  BA= .272.
Mac Marshall LHP- 6 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 8 K's.  ERA= 5.05.

Marshall seems like a guy who just needs to harness his stuff.  Easier said than done, though.

Rookie AZL  Giants  blanked the Dodgers 6-0:

Jacob Heyward DH- 2 for 3, 2B, 2 BB, 2 SB(10).  BA= .337.
Sandro Fabian RF- 1 for 4, 2B.  BA= .340.
Jose Layer LF- 1 for 3, 2B, BB.  BA= .283.
Kelvin Beltre 3B- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .333.
DJ Myers RHP- 6 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 1.70.
Chris Falwell RHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 2.73.
Wilson Santos RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 2.35.

Heyward and Fabian seem to be too good for the AZL.  Layer is looking like a nice sleeper pick from the 2016 draft.  Kelvin Beltre just needs to stay healthy!

DSL  Giants were idle.

  1. How about a post on potential September call-ups? That'd be pretty cool. I'd like to see Thomlinson back up for one.

  2. Reynolds (RP, AAA) should be one of the first call ups for the pen. What's the contractual situation for a mid-season signing like him with an MiL contract? I assume we lose his rights for next season, but he might be an excellent addition/replacement option for Javy when he leaves/retires this year. Seems like he could help the big club right now.
