Trey Faltine named Florida State League Player of the Week

Last week didn’t start out well for Trey Faltine. He went 0-4 with two strikeouts to begin the series against the Dunedin Blue Jays. But he turned things around over the next five games and did so well that his performance earned him the Florida State League Player of the Week.

In the second game of the series, Trey Faltine went 2-2 with a walk, home run, a steal, and he scored three runs. Later that day, with the Daytona Tortugas now playing the role as the visiting team in their own stadium due to a make up from a game that was postponed earlier in the year, Faltine picked up another hit and a walk against the Blue Jays.

Thursday the infielder go 1-3 with a run, a double, and he drove in two runs. Friday night he went 1-2 with another double, another steal, and another walk. Saturday would turn out to be the final game of the series as Sunday’s game was cancelled. That night saw Faltine have his best game of the year, going 3-4 with a double, a steal, a home run, two runs scored, and he drove in three runs.

When the week was said and done, Trey Faltine had hit .471/.524/1.000 for Daytona. That came along with three doubles, two home runs, three walks, six runs, and six runs batted in. Faltine also stole four bases in four tries to really cement himself as the Player of the Week.
