RR Minor League Project: IDF Pitching update

We are just over ten days into the short season at Idaho Falls and the team is mired in a three game losing streak.  As you can see below none of the stats as of yet are dominating.  Still it is early and hopefully some of our draft picks will turn it around. 

Comments:

Justin Garcia ( Born: 10/19/1984 Birthplace: Violet, LA Height: 6' 0" Weight: 185 Bats: R Throws: R) seems to be hot right out of the box.  He has been used in relief and has had a couple of strong outings.  In the Chukers June 27th loss he was the third pitcher and his line was  2.0 1 0 0 0 3 0 1.13.  His line for the season so far is 2 0 1.13 3 0 0 0 0 8.0 4 3 1 1 0 0 8 0.50 0 3

Derrick Saito is performing as promised.  He is a (Leo Nunez type) fireballer.  His stats so far show that he is probably a situational pitcher at best  (0 0 2.70 3 0 0 0 0 3.1 5 1 1 1 0 1 6 1.80 0 0)  6 k's with 1 BB,  5 hits and 1 earn run in 3.1 innings.  Not bad for a 16th round draft pick.  I would like to see him close some games to see if this flamethrower has the "shove it in your face" attitude.

 Bryan Casey leads the team in innings pitched with 13.2.  He is sporting a 1.32 ERA but seems to have difficulty with his control 9 k's and 7 BB's.  He started last nights game and went 3.2 4 1 1 3 3 0 1.32.  His numbers aren't bad but with the anemic offense of the Chukers he is going to have to cut down on the walks to chalk up some wins.

Ivor Hodgson is leading the team with 15 K's in 9 innings.  He was in the AZL last year. 

Here are the team stats:  as of June 27th.
