Two draft prospect updates from today…
-Anthony Rendon went 1-for-2 with two walks in today’s game against USC, with his hit being a home run. Rendon has homered two games in a row now. Rendon started off slow, going 1-for-8 in his first two games, with his only hit being a single. Since then he has hit for a .556/.652/.944 line, going 10-for-18 with two homers and five walks in his last five games. He is definitely starting to heat up.
-Matt Purke, who had his start moved from Friday to Sunday because of a blister, will miss the entire weekend due to the same blister. His next start will be next Friday.
