7-12-10 from: - link - Appalachian League - Aderlin Rodriguez, Kingsport - .429/.452/.929, 12-for-28, 5 2B, 0 3B, 3 HR, 9 RBI, 9 R, 2 BB, 3 K, 0 SB - The second consecutive Mets prospects to take Appalachian League honors -- Javier Rodriguez was Player of the Week last week -- Aderlin Rodriguez (no relation) has busted out over his last eight games. Coming into the season, the 18-year-old Dominican had just 17 Gulf Coast League games worth of pro experience under his belt, and on Monday morning he woke up with a .208 batting average through his first 12 Appy League games. He homered for his second time in as many games that night, going 3-for-5 with two RBIs and two runs scored. He doubled in each of his next three games, and he added two homers to Thursday's game, driving in five runs with five trips to the plate. He doubled twice more, knocking in a run and scoring, on Sunday.
7-12-10 from: - link - Eastern League - Kirk Nieuwenhuis, Binghamton - .469/.472/.844, 15-for-32, 6 2B, 0 3B, 2 HR, 6 RBI, 9 R, 2 BB, 5 K, 0 SB - Kirk Nieuwenhuis, who was twice a Florida State League Player of the Week last year, successfully brought his act to Double-A this season. He enters the week of July 12 with an Eastern League-leading 44 extra-base hits, and his performance over the last seven games has been a shot in the arm to the B-Mets, who won four of those contests. Nieuwenhuis was 4-for-4 with a double and three RBIs on Tuesday, doubled twice during a 3-for-5 Wednesday and homered on Thursday. He was 3-for-7 between Friday and Saturday, and he homered and doubled on Sunday.
Whether his is leading off or batting third, Reyes still has his blazing speed. He has led the National League in triples three times and stolen bases three times, including a career high 78 thefts in 2007. Ther is nothing more exciting in baseball when Reyes hits a line drive into the right field gap or corner and watching him run. - link
7-12 from: - link - TRDMB’s 2nd Annual Mets First Half Report Card - Jon Niese - B: The curve is becoming more dominating, and Niese’s overall game is following suit…another Junior Core member making the critics of the Met farm look really silly…has been gaining confidence in every aspect of his game, and is working on cementing his name in this rotation for the next decade.
