Atlanta Braves Minor League Recap: 4/10

Gwinnett 3, Charlotte 5 - F/7

• D. Hernandez 2-4 2 2B, 2 RBI, CS, E
  
• G. Blanco 1-4 K
• JoJo 6IP 7H 5R 1BB 2K

Rain shortened this game a little. Blanco has Ked 5 times in two games so far and JoJo pitched O.K. I know he gave up 5 runs but he went 1-2-3 in every inning but the 4th and 6th and he gave up all his runs in those innings. We will call it a fluke this time.

Carolina 5, Mississippi 4 (In Progress)

• G. Hernandez 2-4 BB
• M. Young 2-4 BB, 2 SB
• E. Campbell 1-4 RBI, 2 BB
• B. Hicks 2-2 3B, 2 RBI, 2 BB, SB

I don't really know when this game ended but I couldn't get the box score till Atlanta finished so whatever. But look at Brandon Hicks filling up the box score! Nice.

Wilmington 1, Myrtle Beach 3

• J. Heyward 0-4 2K
• F. Freeman 2-3 2B. RBI
• C. Johnson 1-3 HR(2), 2 RBI, K
• J. Locke 5IP 3H 0R 1BB 6K WP

Cody Johnson hates baseballs. And I hope he hates them all year. I know I have been one of his biggest detractors but seriosuly, he has tons of ability and if puts it together he could be almost as good as Heyward. Think of Heyward-Freeman-Johnson as our 3-4-5 guys. SICK. Anyways, Jeff Locke is the Braves pitcher this year that has the best chance to really jump on the national radar and tonight's game was as good as any game he pitched last year.

Rome 2, Charleston 4

• G. Rodriguez 2-4 RBI, 2K
• Jacob Thompson 4.1 3H 1R 1BB 3K

Gerrardo Rodriguez hit a lot of homers las season in the Appy league and he could do the same thing for Rome this year. He is an old 21 (He'll turn 22 right after the season ends this year so he might be a big old for the league, but if he batters the competition then he might get a promotion if the same happens to Freeman. Jacob Thompson was considered a steal for the Braves last year in the 5th Rd and he might move fast. Keep an eye or two on him.
