Date: 7-3-12
MLB - Mets:
Sandy
Alderson to San Francisco: "Come at me, bro."
AAA – Buffalo:
The Bisons have
activated LHP Chuck James off the disabled list.
LHP Mark Cohoon has been transferred to Double-A
Binghamton.
Collin McHugh
takes the mound tonight
for his fourth start with the Bisons. The righty is coming off a no-decision in
his only start at Coca-Cola Field this season, June 28 against Louisville
(4.0IP, 2ER, 4K). Overall, he is 0-2 with a 7.07 ERA and 15K in 14.0 innings of
work for the Herd.
LHP Josh Edgin has not allowed a run in his last seven
games (7.1IP, 4H, 9K)...
Tonight…
Look, I know most of
the people that write about the Mets minor league teams make a big deal when
they either win or don’t. Frankly, I could care less. I’m just evaluating the
few players on each team that have either shown they have the talent to excel
in the majors, or continue to have a ceiling/age that is projectable.
Take the example of SP Collin McHugh. Does he stand a chance to make the Mets
rotation? Probably not and would take quite a few injuries. Is he talented
enough to pitch in the majors? Yes, easily projectable as an SP5. Do we write
about him. Yes, especially around trade time J
Collin went 8.1-IP,
97-64, 10-K, 2-BB. This Is what we call a quality start. Hopefully,
there were lots of scouts there, looking past his 5.31 AAA ERA.
RP Jenrry Mejia still struggles with a nightly 9.00 ERA.
No walks , but only one strikeout. 27-19.
I’m not sure how happy
the rest of the team was when RF Raul Reyes (.250)
singled in the tying run in the bottom of the ninth. Next thing you know was a
delay when everyone could have been home to check their TIVO. That’s okay. 2B Jordany “Wait For 100 More Pictures of my Single on Facebook”
Valdespin, singled in Reyes and game, set, and match.
AA-Binghamton:
LHP Darin Gorski (5-4, 4.14) makes his 14th start of the
season and second against the Curve. Gorski supplied a quality start, but took
the no-decision in his last appearance versus the Bowie Baysox on June 28. The
southpaw allowed four runs (three earned) on five hits over six innings, but
the Baysox posted four runs against the B-Mets bullpen to earn an 8-6 win. In
Gorski’s first start against the Curve on June 16, he allowed six runs and
matched a season-high by allowing ten hits in a loss. It was Gorski’s only loss
in the month of June. Selected in the seventh round of the 2009 draft, Gorski
is in his first season with the B-Mets.
RHP Brandon Cumpton (8-6, 3.21) takes the mound for his
16th start and second versus the B-Mets. The righty has factored into the
decision in all but one his starts and
thrown at least five innings thirteen times. The Georgia native defeated the
Harrisburg Senators in his last start with six shutout innings. He struck out
four and allowed just three hits. Cumpton suffered the loss in his first start
against the B-Mets on June 15, Binghamton’s only win against Altoona this season.
He allowed four runs and matched a season-high with seven hits allowed in 5.1
innings. Selected in the 9th round of the 2010 draft out of Georgia Tech, he is
in his first year with the Curve.
Tonight…
Wilmer Flores
was back playing 2B
again… 0-3, .360, and n0 errors.
RF Juan Lagares made his 12th stolen base in
82 games.
A+ - St. Lucie: -
Tonight…
This is not a good time
for SP Yohan Almonte to have another bad start.
The season’s got less games left than played and Michael
Fulmer is waiting for an opening. Tonight was from hunger: 4.0-IP, 8-H,
8-ER, 6.48. Last three outings: 11.1-IP… 24 runs.
A – Savannah:
Tonight…
This was a stinker…
First, two more errors
including 3B Aderlin Rodriguez’ (.271) 16th.
Come on…
Recent draft pick, 3B Matt Reynolds (.286) is holding his own at A-ball. Two
more hits tonight.
A-Low – Brooklyn:
Tonight…
It’s hard not to laugh
at CF Brandon Nimmo’s stat line. He came into
tonight’s game sporting: .184/.365/.286/.651. So, what does he do tonight? He
goes hitless but generates two RBIs…
1B Jayce Boyd (.444) had another double… SS Philip Evans (.266) also doubled while LF Stefan Sabol (.348) had three hits.
Rookie – Kingsport:
Tonight… postponed
