Since the Mets are off tonight now is a good time to take a look at what the farm clubs are doing.
Down On The Farm
At AAA, the New Orleans Zephyrs (I will never get used to that) went 1-5 this past week, finishing the week in 3rd place in the PCL American South Division at 21-23 overall.
OF Jesus Feliciano led the team going 9 for 26 (.346) with 3 RBIs. Meanwhile Tony Armas, Jr. went 1-1 with a 1.38 ERA in 13 innings (when will he get called up?)
The Binghamton Mets (AA) had a much better week going 5-1, improving to 21-22 on the season, 6.5 games behind Trenton.
The team as a whole batted .297 for the week, led by OF Caleb Stewart (9 for 23 .391) and 1B Nick Evans (8 for 24 .333).
Down in the Florida State League at Port St. Lucie (A), the Mets have lost 11 straight, and are now 19 games out of first place with an 8-36 record. The team batted a pitiful .183 this week – obviously no stand outs here.
Finally, the Savannah Sand Gnats (A) went 3-4 this week, holding on to 7th place in the South Atlantic League’s Southern Division. Jordan Abruzzo (C/DH) maintained his .333 season batting average, going 9 for 27.
