Steven Moya showing resiliancy in Arizona Fall League

Steven Moya is settling in at the plate and Robbie Ray overcame a pitch-clock violation to strikeout five in a recent outing with the Arizona Fall League.

After hitting 35 home runs with Double-A Erie this season, the tall right fielder mashed his first homer in Arizona Saturday night, finishing 2-for-4, where he reached on an error and scored three times to keep his batting average at a healthy .303.

Apart from Saturday’s results where he scored three times, Moya stole both second and third base on Thursday, including a review of a safe-call of third.

Saturday marked the first time Moya had recorded a multi-hit night without striking out once and his defense has been reported as being solid.

Regarding Moya’s defense, Pleskoff recently said Moya is “certainly fine in the field.

In his end-of-the-season press conference, president and GM Dave Dombrowski spoke highly of Moya and the season he had with Erie, though he said the team wasn’t sure if Moya would be ready for a corner position with the Tigers next season.

It was his fifth appearance in relief and Mantiply has given up just three hits and one run in that time, the run occurring during his first outing on October 7, along with his lone walk to date.

He’s given up five runs on seven hits, walking four while striking out three in that time.

Reininger has given up three runs on three hits, including a home run while issuing three walks.

Fields has a home run, three RBI, and three walks through five games with three stolen bases (four attempts) and six strikeouts.
