I'm very happy that he was just promoted from Fresno to the Giants! He was having a hell of a year in the minors with the AAA Grizzlies and the AA Connecticut Defenders. Less than two weeks ago, I saw Travis hit a home run @ Chukchansi Park in beautiful downtown Fresno. Ishikawa has 24 home runs and 94 rbi combined with the Grizzlies and the Defenders.
I just saw Travis hit a double on television against the Astros in Houston. He has really improved in the past year. Just last year, I saw Ishikawa playing for Single A San Jose Giants and he just didn't look like major league material. I actually gave up on him.
As Mike Krukow just said on Comcast Sportsnet, "the ball just jumps off his bat." I like that!
