Mets Farm Report: May 22nd, 2010
ByStars of the Night:
AAA – Jesus Feliciano (2-4, 2b, BB, SO)
AA – Kirk Nieuwenhuis (1-4, HR, R, RBI)
HiA – Richard Lucas (2-4, HR, 3 RBI’s, R)
LoA – Kai Gronauer (3-6, R)
AAA – Buffalo Bisons
Dillon Gee continued his winning ways by improving to 5-1 on the season. He was very methodical in this outing throwing just 92 pitches in 6.2 innings and giving up just three hits. He looks like he is ready if or when the Mets ever decide to give him a shot in the rotation. Can someone please tell me why Gary Matthews Jr. is on the big league roster over Jesus Feliciano? Not only has Feliciano been more productive with the bat, but he is just as good if not better in the field. The man has more than served his time in the minors and deserves his shot.
AA – Binghamton Mets
After dominating the Florida State League, Chris Schwinden was promoted to the AA Eastern League and continued his domination. He had one blemish in his first start, a solo homerun to Erik Lis, but was otherwise outstanding earning his first AA win. Schwinden put his impeccable command on display with no walks over 6 innings. The offense didn’t need to do much as a pair of solo homeruns from Marshall Hubbard and Kirk Nieuwenhuis was all they needed.
HiA – St. Lucie Mets
Despite giving up 9 hits Robert Carson had his 4th consecutive positive outing by giving up just 2 runs and earning his 3rd win to improve his record to .500 on the season. His peripherals aren’t looking good though has he has a 21:29 K:BB, a poor K/9, and a .333 BAA. While he has had some success lately he is bound to get hit hard soon if he doesn’t start improving his command. Daniel Murphy had another good rehab game going 1-3 with a 2-out RBI and a walk. He played all nine innings in the field. The biggest blow of the game was a 2-run homerun off the bat of Richard Lucas to give the Mets a big lead to put the Tigers away.
LoA – Savannah Sand Gnats
A complete meltdown in the 9th inning by the Sand Gnats. After giving up a solo homerun Michael Powers gave up a single, ground out, and walk before shelling out the 2-out 3-run run game tying homerun to Zoilo Almonte. Later in the game Kai Gronauer allowed a pass ball that led to the game winning run scoring on a sac fly. Very little offense. The Gnats scattered 10 hits with Juan Lagares and Cesar Puello being the only players without a hit. 8 of the hits were doubles and only Nick Santomauro and Jefry Marte had extra base hits.
