Now to the notes of the day:
– Jeremia Gomez has been placed on the 7-day Disabled List with an injured left hand. There is something more to the injury than what was originally thought, so the D-backs’ training staff wanted to take a closer look at the situation.
Looking at the minor league leaders in the top stat categories, you’ll find the following current/former Osprey:
– Paul Goldschmidt (2009) leads the minors in not only home runs, but entering tonight’s games, he also leads in RBIs (93).
– Eric Groff is tied for the lead in all of rookie ball with a .689 slugging percentage.
– Raymond Hernandez is in the top 5 in all of rookie ball in both WHIP and Average Allowed.
