So, who were the best minor league April Rays?

Who was the best Tampa Bay Rays minor league hitter and pitcher in the month of April? Where the BCS/RPI rewards those who had several good days, who had the most-complete month? A few ideas below, though further nominations are welcome.

HITTERS
Vince Belnome, DUR: .333, 17 RBIs, 17 runs, .443 obp, .597 slug
Kevin Kiermaier, MGM: .306, 6 RBIs, 16 runs, .385 obp, .385 slug
Cameron Seitzer, MGM: .304, 10 RBIs, 11 runs, .407 obp, .435 slug
Alejandro Segovia, CHA: .289, 15 RBIs, 10 runs, .325 obp, .554 slug
Tommy Coyle, BWG: .349, 11 RBIs, 20 runs, .471 obp, .566 slug
Andrew Toles, BWG: .368, 21 RBIs, 14 runs, .406 obp, .600 slug


It's a choice between Toles, Belnome and Coyle.


PITCHERS
Alex Torres, DUR: 2-0, 1.29 ERA in 4 starts, 10 hits, 6 walks, 29 Ks in 21 innings
C.J. Riefenhauser, MGM: 1-0, 2 saves, 0.54 ERA in 10 games, 7 hits, 3 walks, 14 Ks in 16 2/3 innings
Jesse Hahn, CHA: 0.60 ERA in 5 starts, 10 hits, 4 walks, 16 Ks in 15 innings
Jeff Ames, BWG: 3-0, 1.80 ERA in 5 starts, 13 hits, 2 walks, 22 Ks in 25 innings


I say Ames.

(Yet again, the skill escapes me to put this into a table that actually lines up. Every year, I try and, after about 30 minutes, give up, my mind swimming in all the coding.)
