Dodgers 7/25/11 Minor League Report - Slow Day for the Dodger Minor League Clubs
The Arizona Dodgers collected the only minor league win of the day in 6 attempts in what was an overall pretty boring day. There were almost no big performances to speak of, which made it very difficult to select a player of the day.
Minor League Player of the Day – Arce Rodriguez - 3 for 3, 1 BB, 1 2B, 1 Run. As mentioned above there wasn't much to choose from on this night, and after looking at each box score about 8 times I decided that A Rod probably had the best overall day. This is the second time Rodriguez has won this award in the past couple of weeks, and hopefully this 18 year old can win it a few more times before the year is done to really solidify himself as a potential breakout prospect for 2012.
AAA – Not much to write about for this game as the Isotopes lost in a day game to the Zephyrs (Marlins) 9 to 5. Joey Newby was the starter and got run out of the game after just 4 innings as he allowed 7 runs on 8 hits. Three relievers combined to give up the final 2 runs, including Jon Link who allowed a homer. The offense was led by AJ Ellis' 2nd homer of the week, a 3-run shot in the 5th. Justin Sellers also contributed with a two run double, but that was pretty much it for Albuquerque. Even Dee Gordon was held hitless and his 0 for 5 day stopped his multi-hit game streak at 4.
AA – Off day
HiA – The Quakes lost the game and the series on Wednesday with a 5 to 3 defeat to the 66ers (Angels). Andres Santiago started the game and took the loss by allowed 9 hits and 4 runs over 6 innings while striking out just 2. Jordan Roberts allowed the other run for Rancho in relief, while Josh Walter returned to HiA (from AA) and tossed a perfect 9th. At the dish Angelo Songco socked his 20th homer of the season, while Rafael Ynoa's triple was the team's only other extra base hit of the game.
LoA – The Loons outhit their competition with 12 base knocks, but the team went just 2 for 9 with RISP and ended up losing to the Timber Rattlers (Brewers) 6 to 3. Nick Akins had a perfect day at the plate by going 2 for 2 with 3 walks, but failed to drive in or score any runs. Chris Jacobs went 2 for 4 and had a couple of RBI's, while Jessie Bosnik hit a pinch-homer to bring home the other run in the game. Starter Greg Wilborn took the tough luck loss as he allowed just 5 hits and 2 earned runs over 5 innings while striking out 9. 2011 5th round pick Scott McGough threw another shutout inning to give him 4 scoreless frames for the Loons.
Rookie Ogden – The Raptors got trampled by the Mustangs (Reds) on Monday 14 to 2. Jose Dominguez made his first Pioneer League start after getting promoted from the Arizona Rookie League and got rocked for 10 hits and 10 runs in just 3.1 innings. Chris Handke gave up 3 more runs in relief, and every Ogden pitcher who threw in this game finished with an ERA for at least 6.00. At the plate the Raptors only had 4 hits, but the good news is that 2 of them came from James Baldwin who singled, doubled, and stole his 10th base of the season. Scott Schebler also doubled and drove in a run.
Rookie Arizona – The Arizona Dodger pitching staff put together an excellent game as the Dodgers defeated the A's 3 to 1. 2011 35th round pick Michael Thomas started his 2nd game of the season and allowed just 3 hits over 3.1 shutout innings while striking out 4. A trio of recent non-drafted free agents and former DSL veteran Daniel Tamares finished off the game by giving up just 2 hits over the final 5.2 frames. The Dodgers didn't have an extra base hit in this game, but Justin Boudreaux went 3 for 4 and Alex Santana had an RBI single.
DSL – The Dominican Dodgers made 5 errors in the field on Monday and lost to the Red Sox 5 to 1. 17 year old Jonathan Martinez continued his strong season by making his first start a good one, allowing just 1 earned run on 2 hits over 4 innings. Fellow 17 year old Miguel Sulbaran tossed 2 frames of hitless relief, while Moises Tamarez lowered his ERA to 0.96 by not allowing an earned run in his inning of work. One day after getting a brief mention in my left field rankings, Arce Rodriguez went 3 for 3 with a double to raise his average to .290. Catcher Jose Moreno also had 3 hits and drove in a run.

Off Topic, But...
…has anyone seen Jim Callis’ latest column at Baseball America? After saying that if the 2006 draft were redone today Lincecum would be the #1 pick, with only Evan Longoria in the conversation as a potential challenger to that, he adds that eight teams “rue” not taking Lincecum. Since nine teams chose players other than Lincecum while Lincecum was still available, and given what Callis had just said about Longoria, I will take that to mean that Callis believes the Dodgers rue taking Kershaw instead of Lincecum. And that, frankly, is pure flapdoodle. What is more, those of us who said in the past that the disparity between Lincecum and Kershaw in Lincecum’s favour was simply a factor of age difference, and that Kershaw would prove to be the better talent when he reached the ages at which Lincecum was pitching in the majors, now have the numbers to back up what in the past was probably widely dismissed as a boast lacking any chance of proving true. Consider this: Lincecum was 22 when he was drafted, and the following season made his MLB debut. These are Lincecum’s MLB stats for his age 23 season:
146.2 IP, 122 H’s, 12 HR’s, 65 BB’s, 150 K’s, 4.00 ERA
Kershaw is now in his age 23 season, and after his last game he now has nearly the same number of MLB innings as a 23-year-old that Lincecum ended up with in 2007. These are Kershaw’s age 23 numbers so far, which we can compare with Lincecum’s above:
145.2 IP, 110 H’s, 10 HR’s, 38 BB’s, 167 K’s, 2.72 ERA
So, you tell me: which 23-year-old pitcher would you rather have if you didn’t know the names of the pitchers with the two different stats lines? Now add in considerations like each pitcher’s body type and handedness. Which pitcher gets chosen over the other? I don’t even think there would be a debate about it. The guy with the second stat line above and is 6-foot-3 and left-handed gets picked over the guy with the first stat line above and is 5-foot-10 and right-handed one hundred times out of one hundred.

Plus, the Dodgers have benefited from having Kershaw for the 3 years (age wise) before Lincecum made his MLB debut. Callis didn’t do his homework, obviously!
His homework probably included: 2 Cy Youngs + 1 World Championship.
"Statistics are used much like a drunk uses a lamp post: for support, not illumination." - Vin Scully
Although
Contract wise, Kershaw only has one additional year of control than Lincecum, albeit at much less money.
frankly, if we had Lincecum in 2008 and 2009, we might have two World Series rings.
"Statistics are used much like a drunk uses a lamp post: for support, not illumination." - Vin Scully
In reality, this is a question that can’t be answered for years. What if Lincecum has peaked, and begins a decline? And Kershaw is consistently great for 10 more years?
Since Callis Said "Today" That Is The Vantage Point From Which We Compare the Two Pitchers At the Same Age
As far as who will have had the better career looking back on it all 20 years in the future, that will probably come down to who stayed healthier longer. Luck will come into play, but scouts, right now, will bet on the guy who looks like Kershaw over the one who looks like Lincecum when it comes to sheer durability.
by CanuckDodger on Jul 26, 2011 7:18 AM PDT up reply actions
Either:
It was a comment that wasn’t meant to be over analyzed
Lincecum has been 13 wins better than Kershaw so far and we would have looked a lot better when this was actually a good team with Lincecum instead of Kershaw.

Also
While the Giants are now paying a lot for Lincecum’s arbitration years, they did get his big years at a great price, the Dodgers, while not complaining will not do so well since they will pay more for Kershaw’s arb years and only hope to come close to what Tim did at 24 and 25.
Kind of pedantry, but Lincecum’s initial arbitration payout is gonna be way higher than Kershaw’s, so it’ll be close to even.

I’m with G. Scott on this one. As I said before, I certainly don’t regret the Dodgers selecting Kershaw and from this moment forward I firmly beleive Kershaw will be the better pitcher. That being said, Lincecum’s early prime matched up perfectly with the Dodgers run and I’ve maintained for a while that the Dodgers win a World Series in 08 (assuming Manny is still acquired) if they had Lincecum instead of Kershaw.
by Michael White on Jul 26, 2011 7:56 AM PDT up reply actions
course that’s also assuming he would have been promoted at the same schedule. Who knows.
"Statistics are used much like a drunk uses a lamp post: for support, not illumination." - Vin Scully
Well
Considering Kershaw was promoted at age 20, that might not be hard to believe. Lincecum had only 63 innings pitched in his minor league career, had an ERA of 1, WHIP of .78, and struck out over 14 batters per 9 innings.
I just hope they both sign 15 year deals with their current teams and I get to watch my generation’s Koufax/Marichal.
"Statistics are used much like a drunk uses a lamp post: for support, not illumination." - Vin Scully
Lincecum’s two starts against Philly in 2008:
http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/gl.cgi?id=linceti01&t=p&year=2008&share=1.27#31-32-sum:pitching_gamelogs
14IP, 13K, 10H, 2ER.
I think he would have done better than having to use Lowe in Games 1 and 4.
"Statistics are used much like a drunk uses a lamp post: for support, not illumination." - Vin Scully
i don’t believe in fantasy world where x player would have made such a guaranteed difference in one or two specific games. too many variables.
I get what you’re saying, and in fact agree with you that this whole exercise is moot, but with the offense we had in 2008 and 2009, even if he pitches out of the bullpen, or starts and moves Kuroda to the bullpen, we’d have been tough to beat.
"Statistics are used much like a drunk uses a lamp post: for support, not illumination." - Vin Scully
I agree with this but you still have Billingsley’s two losses to think about.
Maybe we could’ve made it a 7 game series, I don’t know. Too many what if’s to guarantee a league title much less a world title.
Billingsley wouldn't have pitched twice
Game 1: Lincecum
Game 2: Lowe
Game 3: Billingsley
Game 4: Kuroda
Game 5: Lincecum
Game 6: Lowe
Game 7: Lincecum?
And that assumes Torre didn’t move Billingsley to the bullpen and have Kuroda start. Probably reasonable since Billingsley was lights out the second half of 08, but Kuroda was the veteran. But Billingsley probably pitched game 2 because Kuroda was considered better at home. With Lincecum and Lowe going in Chicago, perhaps Billingsley is moved to the bullpen for Kuroda in the first series or held out until there’s a 4th game (which never came.)
And I’m not guaranteeing a title certainly, just taking a position. That Dodgers team would have been the best team in the playoffs that year.
by Michael White on Jul 26, 2011 8:56 AM PDT up reply actions
But if the question was, “who would you pick today?”, shouldn’t that reflect current performance and projected future performance, and not everything accomplished since 2006?
In that case, I would go with Kershaw.
If that was the question it's a no-brainer (to me) for Kershaw
I read it as, “who should you have taken, then” which makes Lincecum look very attractive.
by Michael White on Jul 26, 2011 8:51 AM PDT up reply actions
Is it better to win a World Series
with Frank as owner in 2008, because then we could never get rid of him. I’ll actually pass on a magic carpet ride championship if it means the long-term viability of the franchise is ensured and we don’t have an owner who can get away with milking the franchise for millions for years after delivering a title. I’d rather not be the Marlins.
Overqualified in an underqualified world since 2008.

But it would have made me irate. If they both last till 35, Kershaw will probably have accomplished more.
Yep, Lincecum’s first three seasons are so much better than Kershaw’s that it’s gonna take ages for Kershaw to catch up.

The Ancient Historian Seutonius...
…says that after three Roman legions commanded by Quintilius Varus were wiped out at the Battle of Teutoberg Forest (in 9 A.D.), the Emperor Augustus banged his head repeatedly on a wall, crying out, “Quintilius Varus, give me back my legions!” Since I periodically bang my head on a wall and cry out, “Ned Colletti, give me back Edwin Jackson, Carlos Santana, and James McDonald!” I think I know how Augustus felt.
