With the season set to conclude in roughly two weeks, this would be a great time to check how those who have played with the Defenders this season are doing in other levels of the organization.
San Francisco Giants:
Eliezer Alfonzo .283 10 HR, 29 RBI
AAA Fresno:
Pat Misch 2-1, 4.29
Johnathan Palmer 5-2, 3.30
Billy Sadler (one perfect inning since called up)
Jonathan Sanchez 1-2, 4.32
Justin Knoedler .263, 4 HR, 27 RBI
Clay Timpner .273, 2 HR, 14 RBI
A San Jose:
John Armitage .152, 1 HR 4 RBI
Alex Requena .321, 0 HR 12 RBI
It's too early to really predict what these numbers translate into because in many cases, the player hasn't been at his current level for a half season. I do think, however, that the pitchers in AAA aren't too far from making appearances in the majors. Mostly because of the age of the pitching staff in San Francisco. I suspect Sanchez, who's already been to the bigs, will be a September call-up. As should Palmer. Misch and Sadler are likely a year - year and a half away.

Skip,
I had heard about Mazone when I arrived in Norwich and didn't understand the Giants' thought process in letting him go. Especially since he is a lefty.
Let's play make believe for a moment. What if we add Mazone to the Defenders rotation with the numbers he had this year. Where would the Defenders be?
I have a hard time saying they are a lock for the playoffs because I don't think one player makes that much of a difference unless they are a stud prospect.
As for Ishikawa's MRI...when I spoke with officials with the Defenders, I was told the Giants were examining the results and they would make a decision on what to do with Travis.
I can tell you this: Ishikawa did take fielding practice during the week.
