Down on the Farm 4-18 to 4-25
Hey guys, instead of doing a fanshot every single day, I figure I'd do one per week and just update it through the comments section. So if you're interested in seeing how your future Angels did on that particular day, here's your one stop shop. One little reminder, this is not affiliated with RGHAN, his work is far above anything I can produce. All this is, is numbers and short observations if I have them. AAA SLC: Reckling got roughed up for the first time in....I dunno, his life? 3 IP 6 ER 4 BB 2 K's. However the Bees rallied in the bottom of the 9th for 6 runs to pull off the upset. Michael Ryan remains an unstoppable force in AAA as he hit a walk off bomb and was joined in the yard work by Cory Alrdridge (3), Terry Evans (1) and Mark Trumbo (3). Hank Conger went 1-1 and is batting .323, Peter Bourjos is batting .375, Mark Trumbo .293. AA Arkansas: The Travs lost 5-1, Ryan Mount was the offensive star going 1-4 with a double. Future closer Michael Kohn pitched one inning with 3 k's. His stats so far this season? 5 games 5 IP 11 K's 0.00 ERA. The man wakes up in the morning and pisses excellence. He and Walden are very formidable in the pen. A+ Rancho: They're down 4-2 in the 9th. Alex Amarista is 2-4 and is batting .333 on the season. Everyone's favorite non-prospects Jacobo and Lopez are each 1-3 and are batting over .300. A Ball Cedar Rapids: They fall 5-3 but the only thing most of us care about is how our prospects did. Mike Trout 2-4 with a triple, and a SB, he's batting .372 and as RGHAN noted, he's the best player on the field. I shall sacrifice a goat in his honor. Segura went 0-4 but is still batting over .300 which is just a small indicator as to how awesome he is. I hope he duplicates Amarista's performance from last year. Carlos Ramirez 1-2 2 BB, Lucho 0-4, Grichuk 0-4 and Garret Richards 5.1 IP 1 ER 5 BB 8 K's. If strikeouts are fascist as Kevin Costner quoted in Bull Durham, consider Richards and Fabio, Benito Mussolini and a non offensive, or genocidal form of the leader of the 3rd Reich. I'm just gonna go walk on egg shells outta here.
