(0-0, 0.00 ERA, 2 G, 1 SV, 5 1/3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 HR, 0 HBP, 0 BB, 6 K)
If you're a batter in the Appalachian League, you might want to avoid Escudero this month. The 22-year-old right-hander was perfect last week in his pair of appearances against Danville and Greeneville and has now allowed just two earned runs on two hits and five walks in 14 August innings (1.29 ERA, 0.50 WHIP) while holding opposing batters to a .048 average. The Cardinals have sent the Colombia native to four different levels in 2015 -- from the Gulf Coast League to Class A Advanced Palm Beach -- but if he can keep up his August form, that should provide him with momentum going into the offseason and the start of 2016.
