5 Up, 5 Down: April 18th-24th, 2010
Posted by: | Comments5 Up
| No. 1 WILMER FLORES, SS |
SAVANNAH |
 Team: Savannah Sand Gnats (LoA)Age: 18 Why He’s Here: .370/.393/.815 (10-for-27), 2 HR, 5 R, 13 RBI, 1 BB, 5 K The Scoop: Flores is in the middle of a huge power surge that we never got to see in 2009. Last year he hit 3 home runs for the year and he had 2 last week. He’s had great pitch recognition all season and it looks like he is finally seeing the right pitch to hit and driving it hard and far. More impressive than his home runs is probably the 6 doubles and 13 RBI’s. |

| No. 2 KIRK NIEUWENHUIS, CF |
BINGHAMTON |
 Team: Binghamton Mets (AA) Age: 22 Why He’s Here: 355/.375/.613 (11-for-31), 1 HR, 6 R, 5 RBI, 1 BB, 6 K The Scoop: Captain Kirk has been hot all season and it didn’t stop this week. He’s getting hits, hitting for power, scoring runs, and driving in runs. The only thing he isn’t doing is demonstrating his above-average speed. He only has 1 SB on the season and no triples. On the plus side he has cut his K’s down by nearly 7%. |

| No. 3 PEDRO ZAPATA, CF |
SAVANNAH |
 Team: Savannah Sand Gnats (LoA)Age: 22 Why He’s Here: .414/.485/.483 (12-for-29), 2 2B, 9 R, 4 RBI, 3 SB, 4 BB, 5 K The Scoop: Zapata is a tall guy, but doesn’t have much power and has to rely on his plus speed. The difference he made this week was better plate discipline. He only struck out 1 more time than he walked. Looked like a great table setter with the 3 steals and 9 runs. |

| No. 4 JAMES FULLER, LHP | SAVANNAH |
 Team: Savannah Sand Gnats (LoA)Age: 22 Why He’s Here: 2-0, 1.90 ERA, 14.2 IP, 14 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 12 SO The Scoop: The undersized lefty is having great success in LoA Savannah. He gave up a little too many hits this week, but he counter acted that with superb command. He only walked 2 batters this week and has 4 walks in 28 IP on the season to go along with striking out nearly a batter per inning. |

| No. 5 ALONZO HARRIS, 2B |
SAVANNAH |
 Team: Savannah Sand Gants (LoA)Age: 20 Why He’s Here: .360/.360/.600 (9-for-25), 1 2B, 1 3b, 1 HR. 4 R, 7 RBI, 5 K The Scoop: Yet another member from the Savannah team on the hot list. Harris demonstrated his great power with a homer and double and great speed with a triple and stolen base. Also on display, however, was his terrible discipline. He doesn’t know how to take a walk and swings at anything near the plate. Still raw, but very talented. |

| No. 1 RICHARD LUCAS, 3B |
ST. LUCIE |
 Team: St. Lucie Mets (HiA)Age: 21 Why He’s Here: .053/.182/.053 (1-for-19), 1 R, 3 BB, 6 K The Scoop: Can you do much worse? About the only positive thing he did was have a decent walk rate. This is a really big bummer as Lucas was off to a hot start before getting into this ice age. |

| No. 2 EDDIE KUNZ, RHP |
BINGHAMTON |
 Team: Binghamton Mets (AA)Age: 24 Why He’s Here: 0-1, 11.25 ERA, 4 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 4 BB, 3 SO The Scoop: Just as expected Kunz’s shift into the rotation hasn’t gone smoothly at all. If anyone expects to give up a hit and walk per inning and be successful then you are just crazy. He should be moved back to the pen ASAP where maybe he can give you a very very little something. |

| No. 3 JEFF FLAGG, 1B |
SAVANNAH |
 Team: Savannah Sand Gnats (LoA) Age: 24 Why He’s Here: .136/.240/.182 (3-for-22), 1 R, 2 RBI, 3 BB, 8 K The Scoop: A 6’6 250 lbs 24-year-old slugging what in LoA? Yeah, he has definitely made himself into a non prospect at this point. He can’t hit for average or power, get on base, and swings at pitchers further out of the zone than Vlad Guerrero. |

| No. 4 ERIC NIESEN, SP |
BINGHAMTON |
 Team: Binghamton Mets (AA)Age: 24 Why He’s Here: 0-1, 5.29 ERA, 2 GS, 5.1 IP, 5 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 5 BB, 6 SO The Scoop: The man has great stuff as is seen with his great K numbers, but his control seems to get worse with time. I don’t think anybody has ever questioned his stuff, but he has yet to answer those doubters about his ability to throw strikes. And 5 innings in 2 games. That’s worse than John Maine! |

| No. 5 BRAHIAM MALDONADO |
BINGHAMTON |
 Team: Binghamton Mets (AA)Age: 24 Why He’s Here: .105/.261/.158 (2-for-19), 2 R, 4 BB, 5 K, 2 SB The Scoop: The transition to AA did not go smooth at all for Maldonado. He was only able to manage two hits, but he did demonstrate good patience and speed. He is not one of my favorite prospects by any stretch, but he still has some potential and this week looks pretty fluky. |

Brandon Knight had a rough night finding the plate walking 5 batters in just 4 innings of work. He also gave up 8 hits for 7 earned runs. A real killer of an outing. The combo of Adam Bostick and Eddie Kunz had a great game and gave the Bisons a chance in this game. Even though they were down 6 after 4 the four shoutout innings from those kept the game “in reach” with the Bisons falling just one run short.
The offense did a great job driving the ball to the gaps getting 4 doubles, two by Jose Castillo. In a weird day where he took at-bats for two different teams Fernando Martinez went 1-4 with a single. Emil Brown, Cory Sullivan, and Mike Lamb all got two hits for the Bisons.

OUCH Bad Ollie strikes again. Oliver Perez was hit pretty hard giving up 7 hits and 6 runs (2 earned) in just three innings of work and was taken deep by the 22-year-old Henry Wrigley who is batting .205 this year and now with 2 homeruns. The only good news was that he only walked one batter. The unearned runs were due to a Hector Pellot throwing error in the 3rd. John Maine faired better giving up only 1 run over, but the control issues are a little concerning. 3 walks to 1 K is never good no matter what level you are on, but he is going to have to sharpen his command before he comes back to the big leagues.
Not much interesting offensively from the Mets offense in either game. In the second game Brahiam Maldonado went deep for his 7th shot of the year. Pellot hit for a triple in the first game and then a double in the second game getting himself 2 extrabase hits and Richard Pena was 2-3 in game 2.

The Cyclones picked up the first loss of the short season, but the story of the night was the small lefry from Panama, Angel Cuan, making his debut in the States tonight The young lefty lasted 5 innings and got hit around pretty well giving up 8 hits and 3 runs. His control was still good walking just 1. What intrigues me more is that he was able to keep the ball on the ground recording 8 groundouts to 2 flyball outs. He is not quite Jenrry Mejia, but I can see him having a great season and rising up prospect charts.
The offense was generated from 11th round pick Sam Honeck who went 3-4 with an RBI. He hasn’t showed the power yet, but the 4 hits in 9 at-bats looks pretty good. 17th round pick and hitting maniac Alex Gregory picked up a hit as well as 20th round pick Joey August in hist first game with the Clones.
