Yankees Minor League Report 4/23/14: Abiatal Avelino Collects 4 Hits in Charleston Victory

Scranton (Defeated Buffalo, 5-0)


OF Ramon Flores:  2-for-4, CS (1)
.242/.360/.387
2B Jose Pirela:  1-for-4, RBI, 2 K
.262/.284/.354 
IF Corban Joseph:  0-for-2, RBI, BB, SF
A very uninspiring .208/.250/.313 line thus far
UTIL Ronnier Mustelier:  2-for-3, RS, BB
5-game hitting streak has risen his average to .308 in seven games.
OF Antoan Richardson:  0-for-1, 2 RS, 2 BB, K, 3 SB (7)
Don't get too excited - Richardson is pretty much a minor league lifer.  But the speed is real, and these are the types of players you sometimes see in September.
1B/3B Russ Canzler:  1-for-4, RS, K

RHP Chase Whitley (W, 2-1):  5 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 7 K
Yankees have been stretching him out further and further.  Has a 2.45 ERA in four starts with a 17/6 K/BB ratio over 14.2 innings.    Low-90s fastball with a slider and a change-up that is supposedly his best overall pitch.
RHP Alfredo Aceves (S, 1):  4 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K
9 scoreless innings in two games (9 IP) with 9/2 K/BB ratio.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Trenton (Defeated Akron, 9-5)

3B Rob Segedin:  1-for-4, HR (2), 3 RBI, 2 RS, BB
Segedin is putting himself back in the "interesting prospect" category. 
1B Kyle Roller:  2-for-4, 2B (3), HR (4), 2 RBI, RS, 2 K
10-for-30.  Roller has some pop in his bat, but is also very limited thanks to his defensive shortcomings.
OF Ben Gamel:  3-for-5, 2 2B (4), 2 RBI, RS
Hitting .333 in 75 AB.  Fourth consecutive multi-hit game (10-for-17)
3B/OF Tyler Austin:  0-for-2, RBI, RS, 2 BB, K, 2 SB (2)
13-for-52 (.250).  Has drawn 7 walks while striking out 13 times.   In his career, Austin has shown a knack for stealing bases, with an incredible 45-for-47 success rate.
CF Mason Williams:  1-for-4, BB, 2 RS, SB (2)
Williams' success rate hasn't been nearly as good (65-for-99)
2B Robert Refsnyder:  1-for-3, BB
6-game hitting streak.
OF Taylor Dugas:  1-for-4, RBI

RHP Zach Nuding (W, 2-0):  5.1 IP, 7 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 6 K
Follows up previous shutout with a solid effort.  ERA sits at 3.00 with 24/6 K/BB ratio over 24 innings.
RHP Graham Stoneburner:  2 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 0 BB, 0 K
Oh what may have been - Stoneburner could have been one of the top overall names in Yankee history, but it just isn't going to happen.
RHP Charley Short:  1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 0 K
---------------------------------------------------------
Tampa (Defeated Brevard County, 5-1)

SS Cito Culver:  2-for-4, 2 RBI
Back-to-back 2 hit games has risen his average to .247.
CF Jake Cave:  2-for-4
16 hits in last 43 AB.
2B Angelo Gumbs:  3-for-4, 3B (1), RBI, 2 RS, K, SB (2)
In the "Where did this come from?" category, Gumbs is all the way up to .348.    13-game hitting streak.
C Pete O'Brien:  2-for-4, 2B (6), RS, K
3B Eric Jagielo:  0-for-3, BB
Has been a bit stagnant after a bit of a home run surge.   
3B Dante Bichette:  0-for-3, BB, CS (2)
The CS was of home plate - either a double-steal or tried to score on a WP.  I can't imagine him straight-stealing home.

LHP Dan Camarena (W, 1-2):  5.2 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 5 K
3.66 ERA in 19.2 innings with 14/7 K/BB ratio.   The walks are well above his normal rate (19 in 129.2 career innings entering the season)
LHP Ty Webb (S, 3):  2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K
Now has a 15/1 K/BB ratio over 9 innings.    Last year, he posted a 48/8 ratio over 35.1 innings.
----------------------------------------------------
Charleston (Defeated Lakewood, 9-3)

SS Abiatal Avelino: 4-for-6, RS, SB (9)
.319/.390/.406 in 69 AB.  9-for-12 SB.
OF Aaron Judge: 3-for-5, RBI, 3 RS, BB, K
.359/.488/.469 in 64 ridiculous AB.
SS Tyler Wade:  2-for-6, RS, K
.311/.403/.344 in 61 AB; 10 walks/15 strikeouts.
OF Michael O'Neill: 2-for-5, HR (5), 3 RBI, 2 RS, 2 K, SB (7)
.246/.288/.536 in 69 AB.  Perfect 7-for-7 stealing bases.   HR in three of last four games.
3B Miguel Andujar:  3-for-4, 2B (4), RBI, BB
Much needed game.   .226/.319/.355 in 62 AB
1B Mike Ford:  2-for-5, HR (3), 3 RBI, RS
.338/.397/.508 in 65 AB for 21-year old from Belle Mead, NJ
UTIL John Murphy:  1-for-4, 2B (4), BB
.279/.340/.373 in 43 AB

RHP Brady Lail (W, 2-1):  5 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 4 K
5.49 ERA in 19.2 IP with 17/5 K/BB ratio.   Pitched to a 2.92 ERA and 56/8 K/BB ratio over 61.2 innings last year.
RHP Andury Acevedo: 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 0 K
Has allowed 1 run in 9 IP, though he has walked 6 to go along with 8 strikeouts.
