TWitM: Carlos Hernandez brings the heat

‘This Week in the Minors’ is our weekly look at notable performances from all over the system, from big-name prospects and less heralded guys alike. The mission is to answer this simple question: “Who had a good week?”

Today, we’ll cover results from Monday, August 19 through Sunday, August 25.

AAA Omaha Storm Chasers (56-75, eliminated)

Bad news and then slightly less-bad news for center fielder Nick Heath: he was placed in the IL with a hand injury, but does not need surgery.

Royals shortstop Adalberto Mondesi rehabbed with Omaha this week, and is 3-for-17 so far with three walks and eight strikeouts.
