WILMER FLORES NEWS

Continues good run at Double-A Through four starts with Double-A Erie, Flores has a 3.12 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 22 strikeouts across 17.1 innings.

Impact Flores dazzled earlier this year with High-A West Michigan, delivering a 1.83 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 35:2 K:BB across 19.2 innings, and he's continuing his strong play at the new level. The 21-year-old is putting himself on the map as one of the organization's top pitching prospects. If Flores keeps this up, he very well could be in the majors sometime next season.

Reaches five times in win Flores went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI, three runs scored and two walks in Friday's 15-6 win over the Marlins.

Impact When the Marlins changed their pitching plans to feature an opener, Flores took over the leadoff spot for Tommy La Stella (undisclosed) as the Giants shuffled their lineup on the fly. From the No. 1 spot, Flores was a force in a big win. This was his third multi-hit effort in his last 14 contests. For the season, the veteran infielder is slashing .262/.326/.436 with six home runs, 31 RBI, 26 runs scored and 11 doubles in 193 plate appearances. Brandon Belt (knee) has resumed running, but Flores should be able to retain a near-everyday role for a little longer.

Swats sixth homer Flores went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 6-5 loss to the Phillies.

Impact He took Aaron Nola deep in the sixth inning, providing the Giants with a 5-2 lead, but it was the last gasp of the team's offense on the night. Flores has gone yard in two of the last three games to give him six homers on the year, and he's slashing .255/.311/.430 with 26 runs and 30 RBI through 45 contests.

Hits two-run blast Flores went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Monday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Phillies.

Impact Flores made his only hit of the game count, tying the game at 2-2 with his sixth-inning blast off Phillies starter Kyle Gibson. It's been a solid run lately for Flores -- he's 6-for-21 (.286) in his last six games. The infielder has maintained a .258/.318/.419 slash line with five homers, 27 RBI, 24 runs scored and 10 doubles through 173 plate appearances this year. He should continue to see regular playing time at first base or designated hitter while Brandon Belt (knee) is sidelined.

With the likes of Casey Mize, Tarik Skubal and Matt Manning having all exhausted their prospect eligibility and Alex Faedo currently residing in the big-league rotation, Flores becomes one of the top arms in the upper levels of the Tigers' farm system.
