I figure I’ll throw in some stats once a week. I don’t want to bombard you with info, but I want to give you enough…
Triple-A — Sacramento 6, Portland 3
Matt Antonelli: 0-for-4, BB (.238/.429/.524)
Edgar Gonzalez (3B): 2-for-4 (.500/.526/.667)
Chase Headley: 0-for-4 (.185/.241/.222)
Brian Myrow: 1-for-4 (.174/.345/.304)
Nick Hundley: 0-for-3, BB (.263/.333/.579)
Jody Gerut (DH): 1-for-4, SB (.267/.353/.400)
Will Venable: 1-for-4, 2B (.308/.308/.385)
Luis Rodriguez: 2-for-4, 2B (.444/.500/.667)
Shawn Estes: 6 IP, 8 H, 5 R, 1 HR, 0 BB, 3 SO (3.75 ERA, 5.25 K/9)
Kevin Cameron: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 HR, 1 BB, 0 SO, 5 GO (1.69 ERA, 5.06 K/9)
Small samples are fun; they’re what allow Rodriguez to outhit Headley by a wide margin… Why hasn’t the Estes era ended yet? Hey, at least Cameron is getting regular work this year.
More coverage at the Portland Oregonian, which also has a nice little article on Headley and his transition to left field.
Double-A — San Antonio 7, Northwest Arkansas 1
Drew Macias: 2-for-5 (.231/.300/.462)
Craig Cooper: 3-for-5, 2B, 3B (.269/.321/.385)
Chad Huffman: 1-for-4, 2B (.357/.438/.536)
Kyle Blanks: 0-for-4 (.217/.280/.304)
Jose Lobaton: 1-for-3, BB (.385/.467/.385)
Will Inman: 5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 HR, 3 BB, 4 SO (0.00 ERA, 8.10 K/9)
More coverage at the San Antonio Express-News.
Off the field, right-hander Jose Oyervidez has been traded to the Houston Astros.
High-A — Lancaster 14, Lake Elsinore 5
Cedric Hunter: 0-for-3, BB (.313/.421/.344)
Eric Sogard: 0-for-3, BB (.375/.459/.563)

Cory Luebke: 3 IP, 11 H, 11 R, 2 HR, 2 BB, 1 SO (12.86 ERA, 7.71 K/9)
Bombs away at Lancaster! Here’s the scary part: According to the box score, game time temperature was 71 degrees and the wind was blowing 2 mph left to right.
LynchMob has posted video of Canham’s home run from Wednesday night’s contest at The Diamond in Elsinore.
Low-A — Dayton 8, Fort Wayne 1
Bradley Chalk: 1-for-4, BB (.379/.441/.483)
Andrew Cumberland (2B): 0-4 (.200/.226/.200)
Yefri Carvajal: 1-for-3, 2B, SF, E (.286/.276/.357)
Justin Baum: 1-for-4 (.185/.267/.222)
Felix Carrasco: 0-for-3, BB (.286/.400/.381)
Luis Durango: 0-for-4 (.167/.259/.167)
The Wizards are off to a 1-7 start. Cumberland has started three straight games at second base.

I think once a week with the cumulative stats is perfect. Thanks for throwing those up.

Chip Ambres went 4 for 4 for the Beavers last night. I actually think that Ambres has a better chance to contribute something (or two) of value than Jody Gerut this year but we shall see.

#1: Thanks, Ben.
#2: I’ll start tracking Ambres. I kind of like him, too.

Sheesh, Headley sucks!
