Thomas Saggese Collects Two Hits, Two RBI on Saturday
Thomas Saggese was among the standouts for Triple-A Memphis in its 7-1 win over Jacksonville on Saturday. He went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI, raising his batting line to .256/.350/.430 in 100 plate appearances at the minors' highest level this season. Saggese has also hit four home runs and registered a solid 12.6% walk rate with Memphis this year. The 23-year-old was more productive during a brief major league stint earlier this season, as he overcame a poor BB rate (4.5%) to slash a potent .341/.364/.512 with one homer in 44 trips to the plate. The Cardinals were dealing with injuries when they called up Saggese, but they sent him back to Memphis to receive everyday playing time when they got healthier. A return to the majors doesn't appear imminent if consistent at-bats aren't available for Saggese. As such, he's unlikely to be a factor for fantasy managers soon.
