I just don’t see it with Carlos Rodriguez. No way he’s going to get away with that fastball and control in the major leagues. I would sell high, if possible. 

I recall thinking the same thing last season when I saw him at Biloxi. Then he went on to mow down the Southern league all season. I’m honestly not sure yet what I think of him but I understand your skepticism

Eric Brown Jr with the hardest hit ball so far tonight for Milwaukee, about 405 to dead center, unfortunately the wall here is 415 from home plate.

[RobertCrawley]

Wiemer.

[markedman5]

Freddy getting hammered around by Mariners.

[BrewersRice]

I’m surprised with the split squad and a lot of lower level players playing, that Isaac Collins has not made an appearance.

Brewers featuring their most MLB looking lineup of ST tonight.

I just hope it’s Frelick in the leadoff spot on OD. Not a fan of having Mitchell’s K% over him.

[RedStickBrew]

Mitchell’s swing looks a little different. I don’t recall reading anything about that this off-season but might be something to watch if he can elevate the ball and cut down on Ks.

Colin looks good today. Fastball looks lively. 

[RedStickBrew]

Contreras 

 

[markedman5]

Uribe can just lose it at anytime…….some bad defense and bad luck also thrown in for good measure……..

[Brewcrew82]

Why I would put Megill in the closer spot if Devin is out for OD.

Brice Wilson has given up 7 runs to the CWS in 2 innings….yikes!!!

[RobertCrawley]

12 hits, 10 runs.

Wiemer 2 hits.

[Ignitor 4ever]

Was Wilson working on his Eephus pitch?

Gasser is having a really nice ST. Would be a bummer if he doesn't make the opening day roster.

Gasser has been consistently underrated by Brewers fans...looking forward to watching him dramatically exceed expectations in Milwaukee this season.  He's earned a rotation spot on Opening Day, but might have a little delay before his initial callup while the Brewers see if they can get a bag of balls for a different player already on their 40 man they'd need to jettison to put Gasser on it

[duewizard]

Haase is making himself hard to ignore. That 1.207 OPS is insane. Spring training doesn't matter and all that, but to me he has earned an OD spot, especially with Sánchez not 100% yet.

With Devin out 3 months, they can put him on the 60 Day IL to open up a spot.

Very true

Nice bounce back start from Freddy
