Minor League Recaps: 7/13 (Rain, Rain Go Away!)

Yeah so a lot of rainouts here in the past couple of days. Also, as per request, I will now mention what top prospects did no matter what impact they had. You tell me who you want to hear about.

Richmond 2. Charlotte 3

  • B. Jones 1-3 RBI, BB, K
  • B. Canizares 2-4 2B, RBI, K

Former major league superstar Tomo Ohka shut down the AAA farm club in this game. Brandon Jones has been hitting a little better lately. More power anyways. For as much as I pumped up Barbaro Canizares earlier in the year (granted he had good numbers the first two months) he has settled into a sub-.800 OPS for the year. I think he would be a good bench bat in the majors, but not much else. By the way, what has been up with Brent Lillibridge in Atlanta the past few games?

Mississippi - Off

Actually the entire league was off tonight.Anyone know why Tommy Hanson hasn't pitched in 10 days? Maybe it is just an oddity in the schedule, but his innings have been limited since his no hitter.

Myrtle Beach @ Frederick - RAIN

 

Kannapolis @ Rome - RAIN

 

Burlinton 7, Danville 2

  • G. Rodriguez - 1-3 HR(8), BB, K
  • J. Gilmore 2-4

Jon Gilmore is hitting .425 in his last 10 games and .396 in the month of July with a .991 OPS. Gerrardo Rodriguez has 8 homers in 89 Danville at bats. I wonder if thats for real real power.

GCL Braves - Off

It would have rained anyways.

Tomo Ohka is the biggest a-hole I’ve ever met. I hope he gets hit by a bus. And I hope his teammate Lance Broadway is standing next to him when it happens.

Also I’m looking forward to watching Matt Young, Luis Valdez, and Todd Redmond in the Southern League All Star Game tomorrow.

hanson

Hanson was supposed to start Thursday (7/10) but was bumped for Hampton’s rehab start. I believe he started Friday’s game, but it was suspended in the first inning because of rain. The made it up on Saturday, where Heath took the game.

I gotcha. I thought he might have gotten caught up in that double header mess the other day but I wasn’t sure.
