Daily Mets Minors Report
Date: 6-25-12
I would up with an
unexpected trip in which I was forced to be off-line this past weekend. My
apologies.
MLB - Mets:
Jason Bay cleared to begin riding bicycle
today. Baseball activity planned next weekend.
6th round pick,
1B Jayce Boyd, signed.
33-hit game Monday
afternoon… 1B Josh Satin was devilish: 4-5, 3-R,
2-HR, 4-RBI… there’s got to be a place for this bat in Queens… The Durham Bills
welcomed SP Mark Cohoon to AAA: 3.2-IP, 8-H,
7-ER, 1-K, 0-BB, 17.18… three RPs in this game now have below-2 ERAs: Manny Acosta (1.54), Elvin
Ramirez (1.04), and Pedro Beato (1.47).
RHP Zack Wheeler (6-3, 1.88) makes his 13th start of the
season and second against the SeaWolves. Wheeler took a hard-luck loss in his
last start against the Akron Aeros on June 20. A pair of defensive misplays
resulted in two runs (one earned) during his six innings on the hill. He struck
out three in a game in which the B-Mets were shutout 2-0. The B-Mets had been
7-0 in Wheeler’s last seven starts before their loss to the Aeros. The righty
earned his first Double-A win against Erie on April 29. He surrendered just one
run on two hits over 5.2 innings. The victory started a six-game winning streak
for the Georgia native.
RHP James Avery (8-5, 3.36) makes his team-leading 15th
start of the season and third against the B-Mets. The righty is on a three-game
winning streak, having defeated the Bowie Baysox in his previous start on June
20. He allowed four runs (one earned) on seven hits, including two home runs,
over eight innings. In two starts versus Binghamton, Avery has gone 2-0 with a
0.77 ERA. He has struck out seven and walked six over 11.2 innings and held the
B-Mets to a .125 batting average. All five hits allowed have been singles. He
was signed by the Detroit Tigers as a minor league free agent in January 2012.
RF Dustin Martin (.239 played 2-levels below) singled in
3B Jefry Marte (.272) and 2B Reese Havens (.197)
in the first inning... Havens also hit his 5th home run driving his
BA for the first time since opening day…
Score: 11-5… 18 B-Mets hits, 4x-Wilfredo Tovar (.333), 3x-Martin, Juan Lagares (.263)
Lucy tried to get in a
doubleheader in between the tornado warnings… In game one, nothing went right
for SP Angel Cuan (1.1-IP, 5-H, 5-R, 0-K, 1-BB,
3.08. Dillon Gee told me once: “in the starts
you have two great ones, two for shit and six others that need some help. This
wasn’t one of Angel’s best… DH Travis Taijeron
(.364) hit his second A+ homer… 2B Rylan Sandoval (.167)
also homered in the first, but these all the highlights there were in this
first game of a scheduled doubleheader.
Game 2: 1B-DH Alan Dykstra (.500)
is wasting little time to remind us that he’s around in case Ike Davis stumbles
again. SP Eric Goeddel took a no-hitter into the
5th… RP Jeffrey Walters (0.00) threw
two more scoreless innings… lost in the 12th inning…
SP Marco Camarena (1.52) continues to have one QS after
another… he also had 5-K’s in 5-IP, a far improvement from the 33-K/48.1-IP
stats he came in with. Camarena started the season as the ‘long man’ but he’s
now a solid member of the Sand Gnats rotation.
Score 2x in top of the
ninth but still lost 2-3…
A-Low – Brooklyn:
Alexander
Sanchez (.375) is trying to find a position. He’s a natural 1Bman who is also now
playing at third and DHing. He also made his 3rd error tonight. I’m
very unimpressed at the system’s shoddy defense this year and we’ll keep an eye
on Alex and see how he progresses.
Outstanding relief by Paul Seward (2.0-IP, 0-R, 0.00) and Tyler Vanderheiden (1.0-IP, 0-R, 0.00).
SP Akeel Morris got the bump back and impressed early… but
then came a 5-run 5th… this was classic Morris last year and he just
doesn’t seem to be progessing past 3-4 innings…
Kingsport played eight
great innings… problem is they gave up 10 runs in the other inning (this manager may start drinking sonn...) … excellent
3.0 scoreless relief innings by Miller Diaz (0.00).
LF Vincente Lupo – 3-5, 2-R, 2B, .379
18-yr. old RHP Jesus Lugo – 5.0-IP, 1-H, 0-R, 3-K, 1-BB, 1.89.0
