All Star Break Washington Nationals minor league leaders (7/9)
With the All Star Break now here, time to check in on the future Washington Nationals and check out who leads the Washington Nationals minor league system. Nats pitching prospect Daniel Rosenbaum has hit a rather rough patch his last few starts. After starting out most of the season with an ERA below 2.00, his season ERA has ballooned to 3.41. Over his last 4 starts, Rosenbaum has allowed 21 earned runs in 20.1 innings. We will watch closely how Rosenbaum responds in the second half of the season. Jason Martinson is making an impact at A Potomac after his promotion from A Hagerstown. In 17 games, Martison is batting .250 with a double, triple, and five home runs. He has scored 9 runs and has driven in 16 during that span. CF Brian Goodwin, a second round draft pick from 2010, is holding very well in Hagerstown, batting .31with a slugging percentage of .503. He has 14 doubles, 6 home runs, and 32 RBI in 50 games with the Suns. Prospect Matthew Skole has taken over the home run lead in the Nats system with 21. He overtook Corey Brown (AAA) who has 19.
