Patrick Weigel (Danville 2015) and Trey Supak (Bristol 2015) had outstanding days Saturday.
Braves RHP Patrick Weigel , Triple-A Gwinnett: 4 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB 2 K -- Weigel cruised in his first Triple-A start since June 2017. The No. 18 Braves prospect faced the minimum on Saturday and never allowed a runner past first base while he was on the bump. After retiring the side in order in the first inning, the 24-year-old issued a six-pitch walk to Sam Travis to get things started in the second. However, after getting Rusney Castillo to fly out to left, No. 25 Red Sox prospectJosh Ockimey sent a line drive back to the mound that Weigel corralled and then fired to first to complete an inning-ending double play. The 2015 seventh-rounder finished his outing by setting down the final eight batters he faced, getting rehabbing former AL MVP Dustin Pedroia to ground weakly to first to end the fourth.
Brewers RHP Trey Supak , Double-A Biloxi: 7 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 8 K -- After allowing 16 hits and six runs over 13 innings in his last two starts, Supak found his groove again against the Lookouts. The No. 11 Brewers prospect set a season high with eight punchouts while yielding two hits. And the only run he yielded followed a throwing error by shortstop Luis Aviles Jr. The 22-year-old whiffed the side in the first and faced the minimum through 4 2/3 frames. A throwing error by at third by 28th-ranked Jake Gatewood allowed Brantley Bell to reach, but he was caught stealing to end the fifth. Supak worked around a one-out walk to Reds No. 2 prospect Taylor Trammell and a single by 25th-ranked Ibandel Isabel in the seventh by fanning No. 10 prospect Jose Siri and No. 16 Michael Beltre .
