River Ave. Blues ยป Gamel keeps hitting in Staten Island loss

Gamel keeps hitting in Staten Island loss

August 8, 2011 by Mike 24 Comments

2011 Draft: No contact between Yanks and 41st rounder Jeremy Rathjen
The Upcoming Rotation

Gary Sanchez and Mason Williams were named the Offensive Player of the Week for the Low-A South Atlantic League and Short Season NY-Penn League, respectively. So congrats to them. Mark Newman said there’s a chance Austin Romine will return from his back strain in “about a week,” but it’s hardly set in stone. Angelo Gumbs, meanwhile, is away from Short Season Staten Island because of a personal issue, so hopefully everything’s okay.

Triple-A Scranton (3-1 loss to Gwinnett)
Kevin Russo, 2B: 0 for 4, 1 BB, 2 K
Chris Dickerson, LF: 1 for 5, 1 R, 2 K, 1 SB, 1 CS
Jesus Montero, C: 0 for 5, 1 K – he did hit a ball to the warning track, so that’s a plus … UPDATE: it was two balls to the track, actually
Jorge Vazquez, 1B: 1 for 4, 1 K
Mike Lamb, DH: 3 for 4, 1 RBI – 11 for his last 21 (.524)
Brandon Laird, 3B: 0 for 3, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 E (missed catch)
Jordan Parraz, RF, Greg Golson, CF & Doug Bernier, SS: all 1 for 3, 1 BB – Parraz and Bernier whiffed twice, Golson once … Golson also had a double and got picked off first
Greg Smith, LHP: 6 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 5 BB, 5 K, 6-4 GB/FB – 60 of 101 pitches were strikes
Josh Schmidt, RHP: 3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, 2-5 GB/FB – 31 of 51 pitches were strikes (60.8%)

Double-A Trenton had a scheduled off day.

High-A Tampa (4-3 loss to Dunedin)
Abe Almonte, CF, Walt Ibarra, SS & DeAngelo Mack, RF: all 1 for 4 – Almonte struck out and got caught stealing … Ibarra scored a run … Mack doubled and struck out
Kyle Roller, 1B: 1 for 3, 1 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 K, 1 HBP – six for his last 11 (.545) with two doubles and the homer
David Adams, 2B: 0 for 2, 1 BB – was lifted in the seventh inning after drawing a walk … very odd
Jorge Alcantara, PR-2B: 1 for 1, 1 R
Luke Murton, DH: 0 for 3, 1 BB, 1 K
Cody Johnson, LF: 0 for 4, 1 RBI, 2 K
Kelvin Castro, 3B: 0 for 3, 1 K

Jeff Marquez, RHP: 3.1 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 WP, 2 HB, 7-0 GB/FB – his rehab assignment started on the first of the month, so they’ll be able to keep him down until September call-ups
Ronny Marte, RHP: 0.2 IP, zeroes, 1-1 GB/FB
Mikey O’Brien, RHP: 4 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 5 BB, 6 K, 1 WP, 2-4 GB/FB – four or more walks in three of his last five games
Ryan Flannery, RHP: 1 IP, zeroes, 2-0 GB/FB

Low-A Charleston (5-1 win over Savannah)
Jose Toussen, SS: 2 for 2, 1 HBP – left the game after getting hit by a pitch in the fifth … 16 for his last 46 (.348)
Jose Mojica, PR-SS: 1 for 2, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 K
Ramon Flores, CF: 0 for 2, 1 BB, 1 K
Kyle Higashioka, C & Gary Sanchez, DH: both 0 for 4 – Higgy committed a throwing error … Sanchez struck out
Kevin Mahoney, 1B: 2 for 4, 1 R, 2 RBI, 1 K –
Kelvin DeLeon, RF & Garrison Lassiter, 3B: both 2 for 3, 1 R, 1 K – DeLeon got hit by a pitch … Lassiter walked and committed a fielding error
Taylor Grote, LF: 1 for 3, 1 3B, 2 RBI, 1 K
Anderson Feliz, 2B: 0 for 3, 1 R, 1 BB, 1 E (fielding)
Manny Barreda, RHP: 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 0 K, 4-2 GB/FB – gets the start because of Steve Evarts suspension
Tommy Kahnle, RHP: 3 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 6 K, 5-0 GB/FB – 94-44 K/BB in 67 IP
Aaron Dott, LHP: 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 4-2 GB/FB

Short Season Staten Island (7-5 loss to Brooklyn)
Mason Williams, CF & Nick McCoy, C: both 0 for 4, 1 K – Williams got hit by a pitch
Cito Culver, SS: 3 for 4, 2 R, 1 K, 1 SB, 1 E (throwing) – breaks out of an 0-for-15 slump
Ben Gamel, RF: 1 for 4, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI – 13 for his last 37 (.351)
Cody Grice, LF, Zach Wilson, DH & Ali Castillo, 2B: all 2 for 4 – Grice drove in run and got picked off first … Wilson doubled, homered, and scored twice … Castillo stole a base
Reymond Nunez, 1B & Casey Stevenson, 3B: both 1 for 4, 1 RBI – Nunez struck out three times, bring his season total to 57 in 197 at-bats (28.9%)
Matt Tracy, LHP: 4 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, 6-3 GB/FB – he was 91-92 on the gun … this was supposed to be Rich Martinez’s start, but I think he might be going to Charleston to take Evarts’ spot
Caleb Cotham, RHP: 2 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 1 K, 4-1 GB/FB
Zach Arneson, RHP: 2 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 3-1 GB/FB

Rookie GCL Yanks were rained out. They’re going to play a doubleheader tomorrow.
