Minor League Scorebook
Leadoff news:
- Baseball America has another piece on an Angels prospect in the AFL, this time Jered Weaver. Looks like he's got a couple of pitches to work with that could end up getting groundballs with additional work:
“He has excellent command of four pitches,” a veteran American League scout said. “And he has good deception through how deliberate he is. I know he’s been working on speeding up his time to the plate, but he’s still deliberate with that overstated windup just like his brother. The problem isn’t in the time to home, it’s that through that kick and wind, he tends to over-rotate and his slider flattens out as a result. He can really get around on that slider.
“He’s got better consistent command of the two-seam and four-seam fastballs, and his changeup has some nice sink to it. The two-seamer’s got sink too, it’s 86-89 (mph) with some good life down in the zone. The four-seamer’s harder, 91-95 with good movement.
- The Cedar Rapids Kernels won the Midwest League's award for best groundskeeping crew.
- Update 10/20: Thanks to Rick in the comments for pointing out that Greg Miller has been withdrawn from the AFL following discomfort (!) in his surgically repaired shoulder.
