I’ve been off-line most
of the day but I’ll try to catch up now that it is game time.
Mets:
18th Top
Hitter in Draft - 18. Purdue JR C Kevin Plawecki:
tremendous approach, as good as any hitter in this year’s college class; still
a raw defender, but above-average tools are there; average arm, but it plays up
due to much improved footwork and a quick release; good athlete; above-average
hit tool; hits consistent line drives tony and makes a ton of contact; like the
power, but others aren’t solid his swing will allow for much more than gap
power – I think there’s 20 homer upside here; there was some question heading
into the year, but will definitely stick behind plate; uses the whole field
well as a hitter; high marks for all things intangible; given the choice
between Zunino in the first or Plawecki later, I’d wait it out and grab
Purdue’s backstop who might have more long-term upside; 6-2, 210 pounds BDR
The Mets have agreed to
terms with first-round pick (12th overall) Gavin
Cecchini, according to Adam Rubin of
ESPN New York.
Former Palm Beach State
pitcher Brandon Welch signed with the New York
Mets on Thursday. Welch, a Palm Beach Gardens alum, was taken in the fifth
round (170th overall) by the Mets on Tuesday. “It’s awesome,” Welch said. “I’ve
been waiting my whole life for this.”
Fernando
Martinez's Astros career is off to a 1-for-13 start
AAA – Buffalo:
SS Sean Kazmar came into the game still looking for his
first AAA-Buffalo hit (0-12, .00)… weird lineup without Josh Satin… RP Manny Acosta (1.1-IP)
looked good tonight in his first outing since reporting…
AA-Binghamton:
Boy, I’m just not sure
anymore who is more ready for AAA, Collin McHugh or
Zack Wheeler… final line - 7.0IP 2H 0ER 4BB 7K (104 pitches, 61 strikes),
1.66…- Juan
Lagares’ bat beginning annual heat up… Adrian
Rosario continued his 0.00 AA ERA…
A+ - St. Lucie: -
It’s rare that St.
Lucie even trails in a game; however, SP Angel Cuan gave
up three runs in the first two innings… RF Cory Vaughn (you
remember him) hit his 11th home run (.236)… Blake
Forsythe (.274) and Frankie Pena (.265) seems
to be splitting duties lately at C and DH… Cuan got chased early: 5.1-IP, 6-H,
3-R, 5-K, 0-BB. 2.50… bats were pretty quiet tonight… only three hits, two by
Pena… pitchers combined for nine strikeouts.

A – Savannah:
T.J. Chism,
T.J. Rivera, and Travis Taijeron have been named to
the SAL all-star team.
Game one was an
excellent pitching duel between Tyler Anderson (4-0,
3.48) and Rafael Montero (6.0-IP, 6-H, 2-ER,4-K,
1-BB, 2.48).
Game two: SP Michael Fulmer got hit early… bats finally woke up in
the third inning…
