In years past, I have tried to share the statistics of relevant minor leaguers at the end of their seasons. Typically these would arrive when the major league squad was still playing. But we’re still in the early part of the MLB playoffs, which means there really won’t be any news on the team I write about for a good month or so. What better time to see how the minor leaguers did than when there’s little else to talk about? So, let’s talk about the hitters in the system first.

Memphis

JJ Wetherholt, IF – 22 (#1 VEB prospect)

Stats (AA): 62 G, 275 PAs, .300/.425/.466, 16 BB%, 14.5 K%, .166 ISO, .337 BABIP, 150 wRC+

AAA: 47 G, 221 PAs, .314/.416/.562, 12.7 BB%, 14.9 K%, .249 ISO, .333 BABIP, 156 wRC+

Asking for a friend: is it good when a player jumps a level and then his stats improve?
