The FredNats were held to six hits, though three went for extra bases ‐ a double by Luke Dickerson and solo HRs by Jack Moroknek and Jacob Walsh.
yes the Senators got their butts kicked, with the help of a terrible first base umpire. He missed at least two calls allowing Akron to get on base, didn’t help that Akron pitching was way better than the Senators batting though
also the Senators best pitcher yesterday was the catcher, Caleb Farmer, threw a scoreless 9th
Green: 3 more strikeouts.
Line for season: .077/.242/.192 with 17 Ks in 26 ABs.
Something tells me this front office is basically making a point here, and Green’s going to get released within the month.
You would think that randomly getting the bat on the ball, accidentally, would produce better numbers than that.
Definitely feels like a monkey paw outcome for “I want an ISO higher than my batting average”.
I expect they’ll let him play it out until they’re ready to promote one of the prospects from the low A logjam. He’s not really taking reps from anyone at this point.
If a player is drafted and receives a bonus, and a couple of years later the player decides to pursue another sport or just give up baseball, do they have to return part of the bonus?
