OF Kenny Fenelon is indeed officially batting 0.200 after a 1-for-3, 1 R, 1 RBI, and 1 K day.

We've come so far.

[Joseph Zarr]

Not to be outdone, one OF Brailyn Antunez has also officially reached the mighty Mendoza Line with his 2-for-4, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 2B, and 1 K. 

We are cooking with Gas!

LHP Bruce Zimmermann is on an effective 4-game run (1.80 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, 5.4 K/9 in 20 IP) for AAA Nashville, who play at Rays’ affiliate Durham this week. 2B Ray Delgado has a 6-game hitting streak.

[Ro Mueller]

AA Biloxi hosts White Sox affiliate Birmingham this week, with 23-year old RHP Alexander Cornielle (3.25 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, 8.6 K/9 in 72 IP) making his 16th start of 2025. 3B Zavier Warren’s on-base streak is now 14 games. Cooper Pratt is absent from the lineup for a 3rd straight game.

It appears my daughter's teacher and husband are coming over for a Farm visit and dinner (Waldorf Schools are very different). I will be checking in on all the action and my viewings and report writing quite a bit later.

 

 

[Ro Mueller]

Oh to be 18 years old with magical healing powers! SS Luis Pena (.875 OPS in 238 PAs with 35 SBs) is BACK in the lineup 6 days after exiting due to a painful hit-by-pitch. Low-A Carolina hosts Nationals’ affiliate Fredericksburg this week, with LHP Wande Torres (5.67 ERA, 1.57 WHIP, 9.0 K/9 in 46 IP) starting tonight’s series opener.

[Ro Mueller]

High-A Wisconsin won 2 games on Sunday and welcomes Cubs’ affiliate South Bend this week. LHP Sam Garcia has lost 4 straight starts, but only allowed 1 earned run in each of his last 2 outings. 2B Jadher Areinamo leads the Midwest League in hit la (88) and is 3rd in doubles (20).

Oddly, LHP Wande Torres gave his best RHP Griffin Tobias performance before he handed the ball to, well, RHP Griffin Tobias for his Low-A debut. 

[Joseph Zarr]

EMJ went yard. Dunn went yard. Oliva just blasted a three-run jack over the LF wall (way gone). It is 11-1 Sounds. Yowza. Gotta love that!

Tyler Rodriguez with a solo shot.

He leads the Mudcats in OBP with .391 (while carrying a .200 BA).

[biedergb]

Sounds came to play tonight.

The rest - I mean Muddies are keeping it competitive.

Mr. Cornielle not with his best outing :(

But hey 2 DSL wins, right, gotta focus on the positives

[biedergb]

Grrr.. A Cubs affiliate is winning and winning big.

OK T-Rats have 5 more games to take this series. I mean 5-1 sounds like a good week, right?

Let's go T-Rats, let's get past tonight and start a new winning streak.

As I said the Sounds came to play.

[biedergb]

The Sounds close it out. 12-2 thumping

Muddies could not make the full comeback and lost earlier, 5-4.

Shuckers are showing life with 2 runs in the 8th to make it 7-5.  Only 5 hits, but 5 runs. Maybe they have a late inning comeback in them tonight, maybe?

Yeah, Tyler Rodriguez is one of it looks like about eight guys (min. 100 PA) of a certain All Walks No Hits No Power type in the Brewers system. Sorted by walk rate…

Reece Walling (227 PA)
22.9 BB% | .150 BA | .081 ISO

Roderick Flores (130 PA)
23.3 BB% | .221 BA | .063 ISO

Luis Lameda (169 PA)
21.9 BB% | .233 BA | .070 ISO

Tayden Hall (221 PA)
21.3 BB% | .175 BA | .088 ISO

Yannic Walther (130 PA)
17.6 BB% | .178 BA | .075 ISO

Tyler Rodriguez (230 PA)
17.0 BB% | .207 BA | .034 ISO

Christopher Acosta (108 PA)
16.7 BB% | .159 BA | .091 ISO

Kebin Ereu (153 PA)
16.3 BB% | .145 BA | .051 ISO

I always thought of it as the Kevin Ereu Club but maybe it should be the Reece Walling Walkers.

Obviously coming back from injury, but Tyler Black (17.0 BB% | .215 BA | .108 ISO) just barely cleared my arbitrary .100 ISO cutoff.

Couple few other guys just missed out with too much hit like Moises Polanco (21.0 BB% | .263 BA | .092 ISO) or too much power like Darrien Miller (19.4 BB% | .169 BA | .144 ISO), Kay-Lan Nicasia (17.9 BB% | .150 BA | .196 ISO) or Wes Clarke (17.6 BB% | .216 BA | .142 ISO).

Two dubs for Adamczewski tonight.

[LouisEly]

Payne has been on fire since coming back from his time off.  1.416 OPS, 6 BB/2 K in July so far.
