It is a really good thing that I love minor league baseball. The big club is hard to watch right now. It would follow that we had a good night in the minors just to even things out. 5-1 and BOOM goes the dynamite!!

Here we go with the DFR…

Round Rock 0 @ Memphis 2

The Hitters:

  • Dan Descalso went 1-for-4 w/ a 2B
  • Ruben Gotay went 1-for-2 w/ 1 2B, 1BB, and 1 R
  • Steven Hill hit a HR is his 2 AB he also had a BB and 2 RBI
  • Joe Mather had a single and stolen base

The Pitchers:

  • PJ Walters went 8.0 scoreless and struck out 5 while giving up 5 H
  • Josh Kinney got his 13th save with a scoreless ninth (I would have to think he will be called up in September as he has done everything you could have asked of him.)

 

Arkansas 5 @ Springfield 10

The Hitters:

  • Pete Kozma went 1-for-4 w/ a 2B, 2 RBI, and 1 BB
  • Andrew Brown hit 2 dingers and had another hit in 5 AB’s
  • Aaron Luna was 2-for-4 w/ 2 R
  • Charles Cutler and Antonio DeJesus were 3-for-4 but Antonio had a 2B and a 3B
  • Jose Garcia went 1-for-4 but the one hit was a 3-R homer, he had 4 RBI and 2 R

Palm Beach 2 @ Jupiter 3

The Hitters:

The Pitchers:

 

Cedar Rapids 3 @ Quad Cities 6

The Hitters:

  • Raniel Rosario went 2-for-4 w/ 1 2B, 1 RBI, and 1 R
  • Matt Adams was 1-for-4 and also had 1 2B and 1 RBI
  • I saw Frederick Parejo in Batavia two years ago and I was impressed with his athleticism, obviously he has not progressed as I would have hoped but tonight he had 1 H, 1 BB, and scored a run in his 4 PA’s
  • Ted Obregon went 2-for-4 w/ 1 2B, 1 RBI, 2 R, and 2 SB

The Pitchers:

  • Shelby Miller went 4.0 innings and gave up 4 H, 2 ER, 1 BB and struck out 5, they are obviously handling him with kid gloves and if it helps keep his confidence high, I am ok with that
  • Nick Greenwood got the win w/ 2.0 shutout innings though he did give up 3 H and 1 BB while K’ing 1
  • Jose Rada went 2.o scoreless giving up only 1 H and 1 BB for his 5th save

  • Pat Biserta had 3 H in 5 AB and scored 1 R
  • Geoffrey Klein was 4-for-5 w/ 1 2B, 2 RBI, and 1 R

The Pitchers:

  • Justin Edwards was mediocre giving up 3 H, 3 ER, 2 BB, and K’ing 5 in 5.0 innings, he did get the win
  • Chase Reid went 2.2 scoreless w/ 2 K
  • Keith Butler had a perfect inning w/ 3 K

  • The pitching was outstanding
  • Angel De Jesus went 7.0 strong giving up only 1 ER (2 R) on 4 H and 1 BB while striking out 9
  • Aiden Lucas had a perfect inning w/ one K relieving Angel
  • Hector Corpas collected his 17th save with a scoreless, 1 K inning

    Kinney is not on the 40 man roster and it is full at the moment so I doubt he will be called up. Although they should release McDougal and go with Kinney. He couldn’t do any worse.

      I agree Kinney should be up there but probably won’t. It is not just the stats, several first hand reports have indicated his stuff has been electric. One of the mysteries of life.

      I hear you on the 40-man concerns, but I think this has been talked to death over at VEB and I guess I just don’t agree that it is a problem. As you say MacDougal could be released which wouldn’t hurt the team and there are also extraneous names on the 40-man. I like Shane Robinson but if Kinney needs to come up and help the team, it will not hurt the organization to let him go.

    I know nobody was too excited about getting Greenwood in the Ludwick trade, but he has pitched pretty good for the River Bandits since joining the org.
