Mets Farm Report: May 30th, 2010
ByStars of the Night:
AAA – Jesus Feliciano (5-for-5, 2 2B, 1 R)
AA – Nick Evans (3-for-5, 2 HR’s, 3 RBI’s, 3 R)
HiA – Josh Satin (2-for-3, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 R, 1 BB)
LoA – Cesar Puello (1-for-3, 2 SB’s)
AAA – Buffalo Bisons
Dylan Owen had his first rough outing in AAA today giving up 4 runs on 6 hits. His peripherals actually still look really good as he has struck out a batter per inning during his stint in AAA and only walked 4 batters so far. Today he was victimized by the longball, which will probably be in the only thing holding him back from being able to start in the big leagues and force him into a relief role.
Not that the Mets have any brains in their organization, but Jesus Feliciano went 5 for 5 today with 2 doubles and is now hitting over .400 on the season. But Gary Matthews Jr. had a walk today so that should be enough to keep him around for another month. Daniel Murphy had a big day driving in four runs.
AA – Binghamton Mets
Josh Stinson had to pick up the spot start today and did pretty well giving up just 2 hits and 2 walks while pitching into the fifth inning. Stinson has been a starter in the past, but has been used exclusively out of the bullpen over the last two years so it was nice to see he can still be a long reliever if needed.
Nick Evans teed off on Akron pitching today driving in the go ahead run in the 5th with a solo home run and adding on in the 7th inning with a two-run home run that would account for the winning runs. Reese Havens joined in the power game belting his first home run of the year. The 3-4-5 hitters combined to go 8-for-11 with 3 home runs, 4 RBI’s, and 4 runs on the day.
HiA – St. Lucie Mets
After hitting just 8 home runs all of last year 2nd baseman Josh Satin is already up to 5 on the season after a solo shot in the 4th. Although he is old for the Florida State League he is demonstrating good power in such a hitters league. When I saw him he had really good gap power, but also a lot of room to fill out and it looks like the added muscle is turning some of those doubles into homers. Joey August saw his 9-game hit streak come to an end after an o-for-3 performance.
Wesley Wrenn was able to settle down after early trouble, but had to leave early after throwing so many pitches to get through the 2nd inning. The Mets, however, received some great bullpen work and were able to put up zeroes and give the offense the chance to come back in the late innings.
LoA – Savannah Sand Gnats
The Gnats had no problem holding the lead from yesterday’s suspended game, but things didn’t go so smoothly in game #2. Darin Gorski was roughed up for 5 runs and John Church had his first bad outing of the year raising his ERA all the way up to 1.76! Wilmer Flores got on base twice to help get out of a mini slump as he is batting .150 over his last 10 games and drove in a run in the process on a first inning single to score Pedro Zapata. Jefry Marte and Cesar Puello also had good games as Marte went deep and Puello swiped two more bags.
