This Week in the Minors is our weekly look at notable performances from all over the system, from big-name prospects and less-heralded guys alike. The mission is to answer this simple question: “Who had a good week?”
Triple-A Omaha Storm Chasers (23-28, 13 games back)
The Storm Chasers had perhaps their best week of the year, taking five of six from Columbus, including a ridiculous 23-7 drubbing. MJ Melendez, Harold Castro, and Drew Waters each hit two homers in that game. Castro was named International League Player of the week for a second consecutive week by hitting 14-for-25 (.560) with three home runs, four doubles, and 14 RBI. He’s hitting .467/.500/.907 with nine home runs in 18 games this month. Jac Caglianone hit two homers, giving him a total of 24 across all professional level
