ICYMI, Wolkow is no longer the tallest player on the Kannapolis roster.
22yo RHP Carson Jacobs (2023 UDFA) joined the team just before the break, and he's 6'9" (nice).
Threw two hitless/scoreless innings tonight, 4K and 1BB.
Batista was effective despite a rare 0 strikeout game. Still a QS (6IP, 2ER, 4H, 1BB).
Wolkow finished 2-4 with a double, BB, K, and 4 RBI.
Nishida 1-4 with a BB and 2K. Nishida has played 83 games, and this is just his 10th with more than 1K (he has 14 games with multiple walks, and 27 with multiple hits).
20yo CF Alvaro Aguero looks surprisingly comfortable in his first stint on a full season affiliate. 1-4 today, .393/.433/.464 with 4SB through 8 games (28 AB) so far, and he made a really excellent catch + assist for an inning ending DP.
