Brewer talk starts around 6 mins.

”if you tell me it’s a DSL Top 20, I could probably do 8 Brewers”

[wiguy94]

Only 4 Brewers in Just Baseball's Top 100 update and that includes Lara who is technically no longer a prospect.

Thought this was interesting in the Longenhagen Prospect Chat today on Fangraphs:

Q: 12:39 Does the consistent good performance from 20-grade contact guys like Murakami and Kurtz shock you at all?

A: 12:40 Yes, and it worries me that more and more of the game will end up being guys who whiff a ton but have great contact quality when they don't. The number of sub-70% contact guys is growing and I probably need to re-assess my baselines.

Q: 12:42 what K% would you need to see from Andrew Fischer to believe he can be a mlb contributor?

A: 12:42 This is the one where the Murakami/Kurtz stuff makes you think about upgrading him to more than just a short-peak guy like I've tended to grade Fischer.

Feels like we are doing our patented zig when the others zag.

Would be funny if the Brewers narrative turned into “they can’t win in the playoffs, all they do is hit home runs”.

Brewers have 5 players in the top 25.

Moneys, Frontado, and Matos the obvious names.

Jose Rodriguez the fourth for his reported fielding acumen?

Was the fifth a pitcher? Santiago Martinez sounded pretty encouraging before going down with injury, maybe Paul Hoff starting to get some liebe?

Ah, 6'5" lefty with big K (and BB) numbers. Makes sense.

Episode nine of Rattler Monday (Spotify) features a conversation between Jonathan Timm and Javik Blake, the Media Relations Manager/Play-by-Play Broadcaster for the Biloxi Shuckers.

Timm and Blake talk about the talent within the Brewers farm system, highlight some of the players that have been promoted from Wisconsin to Biloxi, and preview the Shuckers playoff preparations.

Blake also reflects on his time in Wisconsin spent broadcasting for the Fond du Lac Dock Spiders.
