Like many Angels fans, I've done a lot of Ervin Santana bashing this year. So I feel obligated to comment when he has a good performance in the minors.
Like tonight - 7 innings pitched, 2 earned runs, 10 strikeouts and 1 walk. No decision as the Bees lost 8-4 to Round Rock.
Unfortunately, Santana is still very inconsistent. He has had 4 starts in the minors with 2 being good and 2 being bad.
Here's a look at Santana's 4 minor league starts this year.
Date OPP W L IP H ER BB SO
Jul 22 @SAC 0 1 7.0 2 1 3 6
Jul 27 OMA 0 0 6.1 11 6 2 4
Aug 01 @ALB 1 0 6.0 13 6 1 7
Aug 06 @ROU 0 0 7.0 6 2 1 10
Totals 1 1 26.1 32 15 7 27
Santana's era is 5.13. And it bears pointing out that Joe Saunders (5-0, 3.10 era with the Angels this season) was 4-7 with a 5.11 era at Salt Lake this season.
The four Salt Lake runs tonight came on two Brandon Wood home runs - a solo shot in the 6th inning and a 3-run blast in the 8th inning. Wood finished with 3 hits for the second straight game.
