DotF: Ford and Andujar go deep in Scranton’s win

July 25, 2017 by Mike Leave a Comment

Game 98: Back Home, Finally
Yankees beat Reds 4-2 in series opener behind Gregorius and Montgomery

Here are the day’s notes, headlined by several new and updated prospect lists:

  • MLB.com released their updated top 100 prospects list. Six Yankees made the cut: SS Gleyber Torres (No. 3), OF Clint Frazier (No. 27), RHP Chance Adams (No. 63), OF Dustin Fowler (No. 79), OF Estevan Florial (No. 91), and LHP Justus Sheffield (No. 94). Jim Callis added 3B Miguel Andujar and SS Jorge Mateo didn’t miss the cut by much.
  • MLB.com also released their updated top 30 Yankees prospects list while Baseball America (subs. req’d) released their updated top ten Yankees prospects list. As always, all the MLB.com scouting reports are free, so check that out.
  • Keith Law (subs. req’d) ranked his top five farm systems and has the Yankees fifth despite all the graduations and high-profile injuries this year. “There are a lot of positives here, and the team continues to find value with later-round picks who don’t necessarily blow you away on traditional scouting variables,” said the write-up.

Triple-A Scranton (5-3 win over Norfolk in ten innings)

  • CF Jake Cave: 2-5, 1 R, 1 2B, 2 K — hitting streak is up to eleven games
  • DH Mike Ford: 2-5, 1 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI
  • 3B Miguel Andujar: 3-4, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 BB — go-ahead two-run homer in the top of the tenth … ties his career high with 12 homers in 92 games … he hit 12 homers in 130 games last year
  • RF Billy McKinney: 1-5, 1 K, 1 E (fielding)
  • LHP Dietrich Enns: 5 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 8 K, 3/4 GB/FB — 59 of 96 pitches were strikes (61%), plus he picked a runner off second
  • RHP Gio Gallegos: 1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 K — 23 of 36 pitches were strikes (64%)
  • RHP Nick Rumbelow: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 2/1 GB/FB — 21 of 33 pitches were strikes (64%) … 27/7 K/BB in 22 innings since coming back from Tommy John surgery
  • RHP Jonathon Holder:1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 2 K, 0/1 GB/FB — 15 of 30 pitches were strikes … he went full Betances

Double-A Trenton Game One (7-1 win over Hartford) completion of yesterday’s game, which suspended due to rain in the middle of the fourth inning

  • SS Jorge Mateo: 0-5, 3 K — first time in 23 Double-A games that he failed to reach base
  • 2B Thairo Estrada: 1-4, 1 R
  • 1B Ryan McBroom: 2-4, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 K — nice organizational debut after coming over in the Rob Refsnyder trade over the weekend
  • Zack Littell: 4 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 4 K, 3/3 GB/FB — 53 of 71 pitches were strikes (75%) … he started the game yesterday, before the rain

  • RHP Colten Brewer: 2 IP, zeroes, 3 K, 3/0 GB/FB — 16 of 19 pitches were strikes (84%) … 49/11 K/BB in 43.2 innings for the minor league Rule 5 Draft pick

  • CF Estevan Florial: 3-4, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 CS — 10-for-19 (.526) in his last six games, and there’s two hitless games in there
  • RF Isiah Gilliam: 1-4, 1 R, 1 HR, 3 RBI, 1 K — three homers in his last six games … the switch-hitter with legit power from both sides turned 21 this past Sunday, and he has a nice little .264/.336/.459 batting line overall

  • LHP Chaz Hebert: 1 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 2/0 GB/FB — 16 of 24 pitches were strikes (67%) … rough outing aside, I gotta think the Yankees are going to move him up to Trenton or Scranton pretty soon
