Minor League Scorebook

As always, news before scores... With that, on to the scores...

2005-11-09: Mesa 7, Surprise 5 #
Anderson: 2-5, 1 2B, 1 K
Kendrick: 1-5, 1 2B, 1 K
Gordon: 1-3, 2 BB, 2 K
Haerther: 2-3, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 2 BB, 1 K
Robinson: 2-4, 1 RBI, 2 K
Weaver: 5.0 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 10 K, 0 BB, 5.47 ERA
Sanches: (BS, 2)(L, 0-4) (in relief), 1.2 IP, 3 ER, 5 H, 2 K, 2 BB, 5.29 ERA
I'm not sure whether this means that (a) Weaver just lucked into a bunch of K's, or (b) he's found his missing command or some other mechanical problem has been solved. Whatever it is, this is an impressive turnaround for him, but one wonders about his abilities. I agree with Geoff Young: he's turning into his brother. Weaver struck out the side in the first, fourth, and fifth innings; when he wasn't striking out batters, he managed four flyball outs and one groundball out. Still. Need. That. Sinker. Jered.
2005-11-09: Peo Javelinas 5, Phoenix 7 #
Pridie: 2-5, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 2 K
Drew: 2-5, 1 3B, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 2 K
Loney: 0-5, 1 K
Suzuki: 2-3, 1 2B, 2 RBI, 1 BB
Barton: 2-3, 1 BB
Schuerholz: 2-3, 1 BB
Frazier: 0-2, 1 RBI, 2 BB, 1 K
Bush: 5.0 IP, 3 ER, 2 HR, 6.66 ERA
Lynch: 2.0 IP, 0 ER, 2 H, 2 K, 0 BB, 6.60 ERA
Slaten: (BS, 1)(W, 2-0) (in relief), 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 3 K, 1 BB, 6.28 ERA

Comments:
I'll over look the high ERA (especially in the AFL) when a guy puts up 35 K to only 5 BB in 24.6 IP...
 
I checked out Kendry Morales' BB/SO and his numbers would suggest that he's anything but a hacker. In 92 ab's, Morales had 13 so's vs. 12 bb's and an obp .444. If there's a hacker among the Angel prospects, it's the highly touted Wood.
 
Joe: but 30 hits in 24.2 IP? A 1.42 WHIP?

Marioazl: Sure, he's got great AZL numbers. But 17/43 BB/K in Arkansas tells a different story...
 
I'm pleasantly surprised by Morales. In his first year in the U.S., he's performed well at every level -- Cal League, Texas League, and now Fall League. Congrats to the Angel scouts.
