HBP stat for pitchers

Does anyone know where to find hit by pitch stats for minor-league pitchers? I can't seem to find any.

In other news, What the deuce is going on with Kevin Ahrens? It's like the guy just flipped a switch. Curently hitting .356 in August with three home runs, but the most impressive stat is he's struck out just six times in 45 at bats. According to his MiLB player page, he is a right-handed hitter. Does anyone know for sure if he has in fact scrapped switch-hitting?

Thanks. Filler. Filler.

Ahrens

He is no longer a switch hitter. When he was demoted to Lansing they converted him to solely a righty.

You have to go to the "sortable stats" section for pitchers on BP's site

Go to this page: http://www.baseballprospectus.com/statistics/sortable/index.php

Click “Pitcher Season” on the Custom Reports drop down menu above the default reports that they have available, then choose SIERA from the Statistic Choices column. The stats are not listed alphabetically, so you just have to hunt for it.
