2022 Minor League Week 19 Games Thread (8/9 - 8/14/22)

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I'm going to my first Lake County game on Thursday. Who are some of the notable players to pay attention to? I am not super up-to-date on our minor league system.

@MadThinker88 you are likely better with this than me...

But the top position prospects at LC at SS/INF Angel Martinez, SS/INF Milan Tolentino, OF Petey Halpin, SS/INF Gabby Rodriguez

Top pitching prospects LHP Nikhazy, RHP Mace..

The other guys normally in the lineup like Kokx, Naranjo, Planez, Johnathan Rodriguez aren't slouches and pitches like Leftwich and Sharpe may prove themselves long term...

@sportscoach listed enough names to make your head spin... Just enjoy the game...

It looks like LHP Doug Nikhazy will be getting the start on Thursday.
It appears that RHP Mason Hickman has transitioned over to the closer role. He is an interesting person to watch that @sportcoach missed on his list.

Angel Martinez is someone I would focus in on (if you can).

Well I just listed the top 30 prospects at LC and guys to watch lol Its not my fault they have a solid looking team on paper :p
 
FYI - MiLB has posted an alert notice regarding the Lynchburg game tonight. Game is moving into the top of the 7th right now (Lynchburg is on the road)..
 
The CLE full season affiliates had another good night again going 3-1 with a +3 run diff this time.
On the week the group is now 6-2 with a +10 run diff.
Now onto the Thursday games to see if the winning ways can continue.

St. Paul returned the favor tonight by shutting Columbus' offense down with 2 lonely hits from Arias of all people. Pilkington pitched well.

Akron eeks one out tonight. Williams with 4 hits and 4 SO over 3 IP. Vargas with a clean outing. Is he beginning to harness his control? That's usually the last thing to come after TJS.

Not much offense from either team tonight.
