Just saw some video of Robbie Ray pitching for San Jose....oh boy.

He looks FILTHY.

I think he pitched for Sacramento today.

 

[Stokes1931]

Sacramento has been one of the best teams in the PCL. They would have the best record except for their 3-9 record against Salt Lake, the worst team in the PCL.

How would they be if you randomly ignore 9 of their wins?

Top 5 pitchers in AAA:
Raymond Burgos - 10 relief, 23 IP, 24 Ks, 1.57 ERA, 0.783 WHIP
Robbie Ray - 2 starts, 1 relief, 10.2 IP, 12 Ks, 2.53 ERA, 0.750 WHIP
Spencer Bivens - 24 relief, 45.2 IP, 40 Ks, 2.56 ERA, 1.182 WHIP
Justin Garza - 27 relief, 41.2 IP, 42 Ks, 3.46 ERA, 1.296 WHIP
Donovan Walton (yes, the middle infielder) - 7 relief, 9 IP, 2 Ks, 2.00 ERA, 1.444 WHIP

That's it folks, it gets much worse from there.

Affiliation shuffling happens all over the minor leagues every year. Modesto has recently been affiliated with the A’s, and weren’t they a Giants affiliate at one point as well?

Isn’t that the obvious place for the Giants affiliate to move to when the As move to Sacramento?

Nope, further south (sorry, @Stokes1931 )

Interesting idea. Why didn’t anyone else think of this 2 days ago?

Dunno. If they did they should say so and not be a passive aggressive dick about it

Was I passive? I wasn’t intending to be.

It is pretty impressive what Franco is doing in the DSL, considering pitchers regularly get torched there. I thought he was going to be in the ACL this year but I guess he was a casualty of the lower minor league player numbers.

The Giants are moving 3B Charlie Szykowny up to Eugene. Szykowny was a 9th-round pick by the club last year. He slashed .340/.405/.505 (141 wRC+) with 2 home runs and 38 RBI in 242 plate appearances with San Jose this year.

He needs to make it further than high A ball before we start distributing future nick names to the kids. Especially 9th rounders.

“Dues” is not a nick name, and he wasn’t a 9th rounder.
