Hawkeyes in the minors

I have MiLB.TV and got to see Joel Booker hit a home run last night for Winston-Salem. Also watched Jake Adams play for the Quad Cities.

Are there other Iowa alums in the minors?

Lots...

Matt Dermody is with AAA Buffalo. He has been up and down with Toronto a few times.

Jake Yacinich is with AA Mobile. He was with AAA Salt Lake for about a week last year.

Mason McCoy, Nick Roscetti, Ryan Erickson, Blake Hickman are all in A ball. Hickman is with Winston-Sale as well.

No idea what Nick Gallagher is up to. There are others who committed to Iowa, but drafted out of HS in the minors too.

I'd say Booker, Yacinich, and Dermody(obviously) are the ones most likely to ever see action on a major league team. LAA might not be the best organization for Yacinich to do this though based on who they currently have with Cozart and Simmons.

Eldred with the Royals, too. A couple guys who signed with Iowa, but went pro: Malique Ziegler playing well for Augusta. Kendall Coleman is in A ball for the Yankees. And pitcher Ryan Borucki is at AAA Buffalo with Dermody. Booker is off to a hot start so far. Tyler Peyton is at Myrtle Beach for the cubs
 
It is good to see Peyton healthy and doing well. Out of the names mentioned above I would think Peyton and Ziegler have the most potential.
