The Minor League Season Recap and System Extravaganza - Nashville Closes Out the Set

With having Burke, Wilken, and Adams all kind of coming up together I wanted to look up potential platooning at first…

Wilken and Adams were absolutely terrible against LHP last year as right handed hitters. Very weird. You’d think that’d be boosting their numbers rather than dragging them down.

Love this. Will likely take this at the end of the final episode when we cover all the questions that aren’t specific to a level.

Could even add today’s article about college programs not wanting high school pitching, the rush to add velo, etc.

Everything just seems to line up with the Brewers new pitching philosophy (youth, low velo).

Think Levonas would be throwing 100 for us this offseason? I don’t.

My final question is an off topic for prospects- Spencer and Joseph - what is your baseball background and how did you get into this prospect/minor league evaluation part of your life. I know Spencer you are a baseball coach- did you play etc? Joseph as a humble farmer - did you play and how did you learn how to analyze these young kids?

All of the minor league “season summary” podcasts have been exceptional! Grateful to those (Spencer, Joseph, others) who spend hours preparing & sharing their insights & player analysis/projections. 💪👏

Highly appreciate all the work and effort you guys put into these. Look forward to listening to the last recap and hearing if there's another dog interruption.

We avoided the barks - a miracle - but we dd not avoid the dogs in full as I certainly had to up and tend multiple times 😅 More importantly, I think I managed to mute myself during all my coughing hacks. A real team player.

Well after a little delay I got through finishing the Biloxi and then went straight into the the Nashville review. Wow, just want to once again say how thankful I am that you guys did this.  Amazing work @Joseph Zarrand @Spencer Michaelis.

How lucky we are to have this site, and the incredible resources and insights.  From the two of you diehard minor league analysts, to the dozens of die hard minor league fans who post here on a regular basis, to the whole staff at BF.net  

Joseph and Spencer - what a tour de force and an amazing labor of love. Thank you both so much!! Thanks for making this offseason so much more fun.

So excited for this upcoming season!
