The Few, The Proud, The Figgy
Minor League baseball has announced the rosters for the AAA All-Star game and one Met farmhand made the cut, 35 year old pitcher Nelson Figueroa of the Buffalo Bisons. In 12 starts for Buffalo this season, Figueroa is 3-4 with a 2.61 ERA and a WHIP of 1.11. In 76 innings pitched he has allowed 63 hits and has a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 58/21.
Figueroa was scheduled to start Thursday for the Bisons, but the game was postponed due to rain.
Bisons manager Ken Oberkfell will be joining Figueroa in Portland, Oregon on July 15 as he has been named to the International League coaching staff.
