New York Mets Daily Farm System Report - 6/20/11

AAA - Buffalo Bisons (29-42)_______________________________________

BUFFALO 16, NORFOLK 2 (Box)

Nice to see this kind of bounceback from the Herd.  Spring training legends Nick Evans and Luis Hernandez led the way for the Bison offense, belting 10 RBI's between them.  Pat Misch threw all 7 innings in the shortened game for Buffalo, and was efficient if not overwhelming in the effort.

Star-divide

AA - Binghamton Mets (23-44)_____________________________________

BINGHAMTON 8, TRENTON 10 (Box)

Binghamton continues to be confusing to me.  One night they have a great pitching performance with no offense, the next they get the bats out and the pitcher gets lit up.  Last night was the latter, with Erik Turgeon getting beat up on the mound.  The defense wasn't much help either, as 6 of his 7 runs were unearned. 

Lo-A Savannah Sand Gnats (39-30)__________________________________

SAVANNAH 1, GREENVILLE 12 (Box)

Darrel Ceciliani and Aderlin Rodriguez were pretty solid last night, but that's about it for bright spots from Savannah.  The pitching wasn't very good and there were not many other batters pulling their weight, that type of performance often leads to an 11 run defeat.

Short Season A - Brooklyn Cyclones (1-1)_______________________________________

BROOKLYN 5, STATEN ISLAND 3 (Box)

It must have been a treat for many of the Brooklyn hitter last night.  They were playing their second game of the season (and in many cases career) and got to face off against Phil Hughes making a rehab start.  As you would expect, Hughes struck out quite a few batters in his 4.1 innings last night.  All in all, it was a very nice showing for Brooklyn.

  • 2B Daniel Muno: 1-3, BB, R
  • CF Travis Taijeron: 1-4, K, RBI
  • 3B Richard Lucas: 0-2, BB, 2 K, RBI
  • 2B Ismael Tijerina: 2-4, 2B, R
  • Nelfi Zapata: 1-4, HR, RBI, R
  • RF Javier Rodriguez: 1-4, 2 K, 2 RBI
  • 1B Luke Stewart: 1-3, BB, K, R
  • RHP Jeffrey Walters: 4.1 IP, 2 H, 2 ER, 4 K, 2 BB
  •  

    Star of the Night 

    I was tempted to give it to Eric Niesen for not giving up a run, but he still wasn't very impressive last night.  I think we'll go with Luis Hernandez for pacing the Bisons suddenly explosive offense against former Mets affiliate Norfolk.

    Goat of the Night
    Cory Vaughn gets the horns with his 0-4, 3 K performance.  He's been slumping lately, hopefully he'll snap out of it soon.

    I think he deserves Star of the Night for that, considering who he is, who Hughes is, etc.

    Binghamton is so bad that we sometimes forget how bad Buffalo is.

    I didn’t realize they were 29-42 bad until today. Makes sense with our “prospects”.
