A look at the bullpen in the lower half of the system. Little analysis because it remains too early for opinions on the Williamsport and GCL groups.

Lakewood

Kenny Giles, 21, Phils 7th round pick in 2011; 23 games (6 starts); 2-3 with a 3.99 ERA; 3 saves; 56.1IP 48H 40BB 64K; 5 HR allowed; 1.57 WHIP; 6.4BB/10.1K per nine; 0.79 GO/AO; .229 opp. avg., .233 vs. LH, .225 vs. RH, .217 with RISP; Giles command is clearly his issue.  He has very good stuff, just needs to get it under control.

Gabrial Arias, 22, Signed as a free agent in 2007; 25 games; 3-4 with a 4.61 ERA; 52.2IP 63H 17BB 52K; 5 HR allowed; 0.94 GO/AO; .297 opp. avg., .290 vs. LH, .303 vs. RH, .320 with RISP; 1.50 WHIP; 2.8BB/9.0K per nine.  Arias has been a workhorse for Lakewood but very hittable.

Austin Brough, 24, Signed as a free agent in 2011; 21 games between Lakewood and CLearwater; 1-1 with a 7.34ERA; 30.2IP 46H 14BB 12K; 9 HR allowed; 1.41 GO/AO; .341 opp. avg., 1.98 WHIP; 4.0BB/3.5K per nine.  As bad a line through 21 games as you can imagine.

Matt Campbell, 24, Phils 24th round pick in 2011;  20 games; 1-3 with a 5.34 ERA; 3 saves; 32IP 26H 18BB 21K; 3 HR allowed; 1.06 GO/AO; .218 opp. avg., 1.37 WHIP; 5.0BB/5.9K per nine; .222 vs. LH, .216 vs. RH, .158 with RISP.  I like Campbell but MUST improve his command.  Old for A Ball, he has to pick it up big time during the last 2 months of the season.

Blake Mascarello,23, Signed as a free agent in 2012; 6 games between GCL and Lakewood; 2-0 with a 3.12 ERA; 8.2IP 12H 2BB 6K; .333 opp. avg. Played big time college baseball this year at Purdue, so should be impressing at this level.

Luis Paulino, 23, Signed as a free agent in 2007; 18 games; 3-1 with a 2.97 ERA; 2 saves; 36.1IP 28H 14BB 30K; 2 HR allowed; 0.70 GO/AO; .212 opp. avg., .246 vs. LH, .187 vs. RH, .235 with RISP. Paulino has pitched well this year and should be a candidate to spend the final six weeks of the season in Clearwater.

Moises Rivas, 21, Signed as a free agent in 2009; 4 games between GCL/Lakewood/CW and is 1-0 with a 3.60 ERA.

Yari Sosa, 21, Signed as a free agent in 2009; 10 games (2 starts); 0-1 with a 4.84 ERA; 1 save; 22.1IP 25H 10BB 8K; 1 HR allowed; 0.66 GO/AO; .287 opp. avg., 1.56 WHIP; 4.1BB/3.3K per nine. Very pedestrian line thus far.

Williamsport

James Birmingham, 23, Signed as a free agent in 2011; 12 games between Lakewood and Williamsport; 0-2 with a 10.45 ERA; 10.1IP 11H 16BB 9K; 0.77 GO/AO; .256 opp. avg., After a very good 2011, Birmingham can not find the plate.

Geoff Broussard, 21, Phils 23rd round pick in 2012; 6 games between Lakewood and Williamsport; 1-0 with a 2.63 ERA and 1 save; 13.2IP 12H 5BB 17K; 1.09 GO/AO; .231 opp. avg. Looking good early on.
