Around the Farm (ATF) takes a quick look at some of the daily performances by Indians prospects. This is a special winter ball version of ATF that recaps all the offseason action by Indians players in the Caribbean Leagues. The positions listed below are where the player was playing in the game.
Here is the rundown of what Indians players in winter ball did yesterday.
Venezuelan Winter League
Jesus Aguilar (DH, Leones del Caracas): 1-for-2, 2 BB. Aguilar made his first appearance in Venezuela in over two weeks, and it was just his second game overall. He reached base in three of four plate appearances and is continuing his strong fall showing after hitting .339/.458/.610 in 16 games in the AFL.
Ezequiel Carrera (CF, Navegantes Magallanes): 1-for-4, SB. Carrera got off to a hot start in Venezuela, but has cooled of late thanks to a drop in his walk-strikeout rate. In his first 13 games he had 5 walks and 5 strikeouts, but in his last 10 games he has 3 walks and 9 strikeouts.
