by Tom Dakers on Sep 3, 2010 12:10 AM EDT in Toronto Blue Jays Minor League Recaps

Update: Las Vegas scored 6 runs in the last 2 innings to beat Sacramento 15-10, giving us a farm system sweep of the day. The PCL is such an over the top hitter's league.

Robert Ray: 3.1, 9 hits, 7 earned, 3 walks, 3 k. 5.51. You have to feel sorry for PCL pitchers.

Jonathan Diaz: 4 for 6, double, HR, 4 runs, 2 RBI. .263
Jarrett Hoffpauir: 1 for 3, 3 walks, 2 runs. .295.

Lansing beat West Michigan 6-2.

Egan Smith: 6.0, 8 hits, 1 earned, 5 k, win. 4.54.

Ryan Schimpf: 2 for 5, run. .217.
Yan Gomes: 2 for 4, HR, 2 RBI. .275.
Kevin Ahrens: 2 for 4, double. .188. He was moved back up to Dunedin from Lansing yesterday. I bet he is wishing the season was going on another month or two, now that he is hitting.

New Hampshire beat Harrisburg 3-2.

Kyle Drabek: 3.0, 4 hits, 2 earned, 1 walk, 5 k. 2.94. Just a tuneup for the playoffs.
Dumas Garcia: 3.0, 1 hit, 4 walks, 1 k. 6.75 in his 5th games since moving up.
Daniel Farquhar: 2.0, walk, 2 k, win. 4-3, 3.50.

Minor League Injuries

Is there any way to check this? D’Arnaud had a dreadful year in the end and will finish it on the DL, Gose is on the DL (with what?), and Sierra just got back recently but also had a disastrous season. Anything else of note?

absolutely untrue about D'Arnaud

he’s 21, is an excellent defensive catcher, and he held his own at high A in a tough league for young hitters, a solid sign going forward. injury issues also slowed him down and he showed early in the season when he was healthy what he is capable of. He’ll start next season at AA and will have just turned 22 – he’s right on track.

for reference

when JP Arencibia was in his age 21 season, he was still in college, got drafted, and had 250 or so plate appearances in Low-A Auburn in which he OPSed .686. Context is important.

D’Arnaud had a dreadful year in the end

That’s a little harsh – if he qualified, he would be sitting about 23rd in the league for OPS with a .726. It’s not the majors – only 6 guys have an OPS at or above .800. It was far from a fantastic season but not dreadful either. For a 20 year old at A+ level, I wouldn’t be too concerned with this season.

Absolutely. And JPA wasn’t even catching in that game!!

Life as a Toronto Sports Fan?... *sigh*... It is what it is...

For certain people around here, anyways.

JPA

I don’t know too much about the PCL so I was unaware of it being a hitters league. I saw JPA catch a few games for the Jays and in those games the Jays gave up a lot of runs. So I thought maybe it has something to do with JPA catching ability. Seeing the responses from other people I guess it has nothing to do with him. I apologize if I’m giving him the wrong image, I wasn’t aware of the facts before I spoke.
