Dodgers OF Joc Pederson, Triple-A Albuquerque: 2-for-4, HR, 4 RBI, 3 R, 2 BB, 2 K, SB — Pederson now has 32 homers and 29 stolen bases on the season, putting him a swipe away from the first 30/30 season in the Pacific Coast League in 80 years, when Frank Demaree reached the milestone in 186 games in 1934.

Indians SS Francisco Lindor, Triple-A Columbus: 4-for-5, 3 R — The slick-fielding 20-year-old has been heating up with the bat after a bit of a slump in Triple-A. He’s hitting .341 over his past 10 games, raising his International League line to .264/.295/.352 in 29 games.

Marlins C/2B Austin Barnes, Double-A Jacksonville: 3-for-5, 2B, 2 HR, 4 R, 3 RBI, BB — Barnes has been outstanding in the second half of the season with the Suns, tapping into power he’d never really showcased before. The 24-year-old has a .308/.421/.526 line with 10 homers in his past 58 games, and his 11 homers this season are one shy of a career high set at hitter-friendly Greensboro in 2012.

Giants RHP Clayton Blackburn, Double-A Richmond: 7 IP, 6 H, 2 BB, 9 K — The 21-year-old is closing out the season strong, posting consecutive outings without an earned run and managing a 2.06 ERA in his past 10 outings. He has 20 strikeouts in his last 15 innings against just two walks.

Marlins RHP Jose Urena, Double-A Jacksonville: 7 IP, 4 H, ER, 4 K — Urena’s been outstanding of late with the Suns. He’s allowed one or fewer earned runs in six of his past seven outings and has a 2.06 ERA in his last 10 appearances. In August, he as a 1.80 ERA over four starts.

Dodgers RHP Chris Anderson, Class A Advanced Rancho Cucamonga: 7 IP, 6 H, ER, BB, 11 K — Anderson has racked up 21 strikeouts over 14 innings in his past two starts against just two walks. The 2013 first-rounder has been a strikeout machine throughout the season, posting a 9.6 K/9 in 26 Cal League appearances. The 22-yaer-old has cut down on the walks of late, walking just five batters in his last 31 innings (1.5 BB/9) after walking 5.2 batters per nine innings in his first 21 outings.

Padres SS Trea Turner, Class A Fort Wayne: 3-for-5, HR, 2 RBI, 2 R, K — Turner’s numbers with the TinCaps remain somewhat absurd. He’s cooled off to where his average has finally dipped below .400, but he’s still sporting a .395/.462/.579 line in 36 games, including 10 steals in 13 tries.
