Good W for the T-Rats today! Any news on Pena?

The Low-A Warbirds can take a 2-0 series lead at Fredericksburg, as RHP Miqueas Mercedes targets a bounceback outing (3 IP, 5 R, 0 Ks last week). 2B Luis Lameda has a 16-game on-base streak.

Almost as if they're priming & preening for the day when Nashville gets an MLB team and they want to show they're worthy of AAA designation............?

What is the detail of ownership of Wisconsin? I know the brewers own Wilson, but they don’t own Wisconsin.

I have no idea. Being in the same state & having a long relationship I assume it's a very strong bond, but I don't know the details.

RHP Garrett Stallings threw 94 pitches 5 days ago (5.2 IP, 2 R, 4 Ks), but gets another go, this time as AAA Nashville aims for a 2-0 home series lead over Gwinnett. 2B Ethan Murray has been red-hot in June (.433 AVG, 1.197 OPS in 39 PAs).

Diamond Baseball Holdings owns the club. The aforementioned Rob Z (Rob Zerjav) and his ownership group sold it to them last spring if I remember correctly. Rob was retained as the president and the whole staff stayed on.. I think Diamond Baseball owns like 25 clubs around the minor leagues or something like that..

18-year old Alexander Frias just hit a first-pitch, 3-run homer off of rehabbing 28-year old Max Kranick in the 5th inning. That's fun. 3-0 Warbirds thus far.

Frias hit an 89mph slider 420ft. Smashed it.

Alright Frias stock is going nuclear. I’m all in

Solid effort from Knoth  stay. Healthy

[MilwaukeeBeers]

Still think the swing is a bit ugly but some guys can and have made that work! Hell of a first year stateside Alexander and he just keeps stacking on it.

Yeah. I was going to post earlier. 5 IP is a great sign for a guy coming back. Ks not there but that will come back we hope.

Re: the Trats stadium... Here are 4 attached photos. The obvious first place to add significant seating are both grass sections along the lines. Conservatively you could add two more sections to each side and still have a small grass section for families. 3 sections per side if you replace all of it.

The other space on the property where there is a lot of room for imagination is out beyond left field. You can see how far the property expands behind the stadium. A left field bleacher set is more than viable in my opinion. It is a little wet back there so I'm sure the permits and logistics will be of concern but there's a lot of room back there to utilize. 

There are a few areas where premium seating could be added if more of that is needed.. mainly behind home plate. I think a small upper deck could be extended out from the Fox club to create suites. 

I added a photo beyond right field just to show but it is basically a marsh back there and highway 41 is looming so I'm guessing expansion that way might not be in the cards.

Very nice!!!! Thanks for taking the time.
