A’s Farm Report: A’s 2019 Minor League Stat Leaders & Fall Instructional League Roster

Unfortunately, Las Vegas and Midland each lost the decisive game in their respective playoff series and saw their seasons come to an end on Sunday. James Kaprielian gave up 4 runs on 3 home runs in the 1^st inning to suffer the loss for Las Vegas, while James Naile was charged with 6 runs, 5 earned, in the 2^nd inning to record the loss for the RockHounds.

With the regular season having wrapped up last week for all the A’s affiliates, I wanted to offer a quick look at the A’s minor league statistical leaders this season. And with the instructional league set to start in Arizona next week, I also wanted to share this year’s fall instructional league roster.

But first…if you haven’t already, be sure to check out our latest A’s Farm podcast. We recently talked with Stockton Ports pitching coach, and former A’s pitcher, Chris Smith, one of the A’s top draft picks last year, infielder Jeremy Eierman, one of Stockton’s top hitters this season, third baseman Jonah Bride, as well as Ports play-by-play man Zack Bayrouty. You can hear it right here on A’s Cast. And, of course, you can always find updates on the A’s top prospects and all the action in the A’s minor league system on Athletics Farm.
