5-22-12 - Daily Mets Minors Report

Date: 5-22-12

THIS IS JUST A PARTIAL REPORT… SORRY… RAN OUT OF GAS EARLY

Ike Davis –

                        “Nothing is in etched in stone. It’s a true statement.”

Lesley Gore –

                        “It’s my part and I’ll cry if I want to…”

Ben Wagner –

Mets farm is 107-63 (.629) - best winning percentage among MLB teams. All 4 affiliates are over .500

Eric Simon‏ -

Ike Davis has probably been the worst player in Major League Baseball this season.

Mark Healey -

If Ike Davis has to be pinch-hit for with Scott Hairston, maybe he should go to minors

AAA-Buffalo:

Jeremy Hefner officially is listed as Thursday's start vs. the Padres.

‘Spin’ sits and Brad Emaus starts at second base.

SS Omar Quintanilla hit his 6^th home run in the 3^rd inning (all off righties)…

Oh yeah… guess who (cough) Elvin Ramirez (cough) threw two more scoreless innings?

It turned out that two unearned runs in the ninth cost them the game.

AA-Binghamton:   

B-Mets send INF Rylan Sandoval to Single-A St. Lucie.

Josh Rodriguez playing 2B and Reese Havens DH…

A+ - St. Lucie: -   

OF Rafael Fernandez went on the DL with a strained groin (ouch!)…

Eric Campbell and Joe Bonfe will split time as the 4^th outfielder…

Rylan Sandoval starts at 2B…

C Blake Forsythe came into this game hitting .357 in his last 10 games… yup… doubled in first at bat (.257)…

SP Eric Goeddel (5.0-IP, 0-R, 5-H, 7-K, 1-BB, 1.29) continues to put up quality starts… Pedro Beato (0.00) through another scoreless rehab inning…

3B Wilmer Flores (.312) broke the ice in the 7^th with his 7^th-HR

A – Savannah:

SP Jacob deGrom gave up a leadoff double that results down a run… gave another unearned one up on a SS Luis Nieve suck throw… I give it a half-ass QS – 5.2-IP, 6-H, 3-R, 2-ER, 6-K, 1-BB, 0.98…
