Just the usual game at High Desert: Rich Poythress goes 4-for-4 with 2HR & 7 RBI in a 17-11 loss. Poythress, Johermyn Chavez, Kyle Seager and Dennis Raben are all going to end the year with some mighty shiny Cal League stats. Chavez already has 23 HR and 38 BB (3 walks last night). Poythress 18 HR and 35 BB. Raben 10 HR and 13 BB in only 31 G. Seager has 127 H and 48 BB. Setting up another intriguing AA team next year to see how they do under more normal conditions.
Welcome to professional baseball . . . Mickey Wiswall. Lefty-hitting 3b drafted in the 7th round out of Boston College. 7 xbh (3 dbl, 4 HR) in his first 44 pro ABs, including a double and HR last night, makes for a nifty .622 SLG out of the box. But 14 K vs. 2 BB not so hot.
Despite the flukishness of his torrid pace (.537 BABIP), it appears that Ji-Man Choi really is a prospect to keep on the radar. JFrom vouches that the kid can hit and the 10 BB:13 K eye ratio is awfully promising. 5 SB/1 CS in 20 G is also cool for a 1b being auditioned at C.
