The wife and I are going to Game 2 tonight between the Rivercats and the Express.

Just because.

I don't think many of the Rivercats are in the Giants' future, save for Avelino and a couple of pitchers, maybe. But this is as close to a playoff game as we will get in a while.

Have fun!
You are right about the lack of top tier prospects. There are 5 guys on the roster who are also on the 40 man roster - Melvin Adon, Ricardo Pinto, Abiatal Avelino, Mike Gerber and Joe McCarthy. I figure that at least the two pitchers and Avelino get the nod after the postseason is over. Not so sure about the outfielders.
Outside of the 40 man roster, I think the guys to most watch are Tyler Cyr, Sam Wolff and maybe Ryan Howard.

Heyward looked good tonight, and he’s headed for the AFL.

RCats won 4-2 tonight. Chase Johnson looked great until the 6th and seemed to run out of gas. He was throwing 96 on the radar.

Adames drove in all the Sacramento runs I think. Or at least three. Avelino looked very good. Solid at bats and smooth fielding. Winkler was flat out bad. Lots of 28-29 year olds on this team. They are up 2-0 in a best of five. What could go wrong?

Last night of Raley Field. Next year it will be Sutter Health Field.

Glad to hear Sacramento's game went better than the one in SF.
Tomorrow's pitcher gets to face Carlos Correa. He is supposed to have a rehab game with Round Rock. Talk about a ringer.

Trade Rumors thinks it may be a two year deal since he didn't pitch with the Giants' affiliates and has been injured since April.

Congrats to the Rivercats for winning the PCL Championship. Evidently, the last Giants' AAA team to win the PCL Championship was 1977 when Phoenix won.

Avelino was 2-4 with 3 RBI's, including the two go ahead RBI's in the 8th inning.

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Memphis is about 3 hours from me. Had I been paying attention I could have gone.
