Sat. 5/16: It's not Easter, but Wearing a Bonet in Wilson

[Joseph Zarr]

74 Runs Allowed in Five Games is legitimately BANANAS. We may need to send Ethan Murray up there to Sconny to cover some innings and get their staff right.

His swing is really really smooth. Everything he does from the clips I've seen is really really smooth. Really incredible early results and he is fast, like Rylan Mills, becoming ridiculous value where he was taken.

I look at him and I just see CJ Abrams

Well, let's just hope we say the same things in about 3 years time, eh?! That would be something.

What does everyone think of Eddys Leonard?

His numbers this year are eye popping in Nashville - yet he doesn’t even crack our organizational top 30.

Is he just likely a journeyman organizational filler on an unsustainable short burst, or is there MLB potential here?

What a sweet swing

Hot take: Jesus Made is good at baseball.

It might be time…..

Good hitters galore!

Yeah I think we're getting fairly close to seeing Pratt in Milwaukee.

yeah with a 750ish OPS he is ahead of Turang at this point. not much left to prove as he is also exceeding his AA numbers

Could make the case for Pratt, Lara, and Williams all to be in Milwaukee. Wonder who gets the call first.

I still think it will be Jett

question: since Pratt is signed long term, his clock is already ticking, whereas Williams isnt, correct? pratt seems the better fielder and they are both about equal right now as RH hitters, so i dont know why choose Williams over Pratt.

I think it's closer to the former----at least that's how he was viewed when signed, someone who might make the team out of ST but probably won't. If he continues this pace it'll be unlike anything he's ever done before.

With Pratt & Williams on a heater & Lara hot all year, my gut tells me they'd like to find a taker for Leonard. A lotto ticket, an overlooked arm they think might help down the road; something.

[cragi]

Leonard crushed 20 HRs at age 24 last year in AAA but that seemed like a fluke when you look at his career. Looks instead like the brewers found something.

I think people were higher on Williams getting promoted because he started to heat up before Pratt & he also has more versatility. I'd go Pratt if they decided to give him an extended tour---send Ortiz down or move him to a bench role. Otherwise if it's a part-time thing I'd lean towards Williams, although I really don't want either one sitting TBH.

Williams is more versatile, has more AAA at bats and is a better hitter. That is why I think he will get called up first
