I’ll take that line from Adam Morgan – 1R on 7H, 0BB and 5K in 5IP. He’s been pretty good since his return – 21k and 6BB in 23.2 IP. Kelly Dugan with his 2nd HR in as many games, this one off of AJ Cole (who’s easily one of the Nats top 3 or 4 prospects right now). Lakewood with 2 whole hits in their contest, though they did draw 4 walks, and Jonathan Musser pitched ok, so I guess that’s “something”. Gustavo Martinez stole his 14th base (at a workable 82.4% rate). That’s about 2 per week for his season. Over a full season, that could be interesting, especially if he can figure out how to get on base more often. Zach Green’s ISO has cooled off to .252. Still pretty nice. He has more XBH than singles almost 2 months into the season, though his K rate remains near 29%.
And in the GCL, JP Crawford hit his first pro home run, and Wilmer Oberto hit his sixth of the year. Oberto’s OPS is back over 1.000 and – I noted this on Twitter yesterday – he’s got more RBI than all but three Phillies. If the club thinks he’s a prospect, they’ll push him to Lakewood next year. If they don’t, likely he’s just an old, undersized 1B dominating mostly younger pitchers. Still fun to see a guy mashing, either way.
