  1. It is interesting with these young players. Chourio had a great June and is coming back down - a trend, or just part of the process. Turang - as alluded to has cooled off a lot - a trend or just part of the process. Hopeful that these are just processes and these young kids will fulfill their potential as regular MLBers and borderline All Stars. Together these 3 with Ortiz and Contreras (also two of whom has had slower months from injury downtime and overuse, respectively) will fill in the core moving forward with a Yelich, and a couple of other prospects. Now on to developing pitching..... what's that we drafted a pitcher or two, how nice 🤣
  2. Yup Gardner rehabbing. 4 batters, and 4 Ks. 5-3 on to,the 9th.
  3. Ugh. A wild pitch scores a run, but that’s all. Barrios, Walter and Ibarguen all strike out. Baby Brew Crew up 5-3.
  4. Bitonti has accounted for all the runs - 3 RBI on his 2B and a run scored. Alastre singles to lead off the 6th, and T. Rodriguez doubles, runners in 2nd and 3rd. Let’s get some runs. Heck let’s get Bitonti to bat this inning ;)
  5. Get angry Eric. So mad that your 1.000+ OPS makes the opposing pitchers buy you a ticket to Zebulon.
  6. And it’s rehabbing Easton McGee out for the 2nd. Birchard night is done.
  7. Yeah they decided to jump the gun and signs guys BEFORE they could be college or JuCo pitchers (lol) The draft this year was sponsored by the letter "P", and also by the letters "HS"
  8. Wowza!! 10%of all HS draftees to one team This is a Stearnsian / Arnoldisn zig when the league zags. ( see; signing FAs in 2019 when teams weren’t; building around pitching and defense when others were all in on offense/HR/OPS 2021-2023; drafting JuCo in 2019-2023 when others rarely scouted it)
  9. Somewhere there is a Cooper Pitt who is upset that he is now getting confused with due to this email. LOL
  10. I agree with Made and Pena who probably are on lists - given their prospect status prior to the DSL season. Anderson is making a statement. Ortuno too, but defensive home and size will be viewed by some as a knock. And King will also be affected by size, and does anyone know his arsenal - has that been reported by the Brewers player development links or other first hand reports?
  11. Ok. Fair enough we have multiple players but legit prospects, you can never have enough SS. They stick, move to 3B or 2B, or don’t develop. I think the ACL/DSL kids are too far down. But Pratt is legit. Adamczewski - good call and I completely forgot about him, my bad -although he’s been mostly 2B at ACL. And I agree, but maybe not “gaps” but areas where you can stock up, relative to other teams. And C is still a gap after Quero. Either way I am for the pitching run, just stating we do have areas where we can use more.
  12. First off who is Adam? I assume that’s an auto correct? Areinamo? Second - power hitting, catchers, and more SS are gaps. We have Pratt as a SS. Brown struggling (as is Aguilar he), Areinamo is shorter and could move to 2B (like DiTuri), and we may have Peña and Made in theDSL. But that’s it for SS. Also very Little catching depth as a prospect outside of Quero. And power hitters outside of Wilken, maybe L. Adams, and now Burke. So those are some gaps. Still love the pitching to restock the system.
  13. Wow. Kelly fell off this year. This time last year I was really lamenting his loss in that trade. 2022 - future's game 2023 - top ranked reliever in Rangers org 2024 - DFA'd and claimed by Colorado Makes the Matt Bush trade suck a little less. Good luck to him and hope he gets healthy and can get to the bigs someday.
  14. Again the draft is such a crapshoot. A very good draft will net 3-4 regular MLBers, and a great one 3-6 with a All Star type in there. And usually teams don't have that in multiple years in a row. Most of these guys will not pan out, but the hope there is something there that the development team can bring out. I don't know that anyone was excited about Craig Yoho this time last year (well very few people were). The 11-20 round selections will be interesting, to see if the potential savings net a 3rd -6th round value there. What I see in this draft is we drafted about 4 2nd round players - and I will assume they will draft a 4th-5th round value today with a JuCo pitcher and a couple of top 10 round talents on day 3 and hopefully sign a couple of them. Then let the development process begin.
  15. And a walk, HBP and 3 singles, and the lead is now 8-4 Goryl, with the DSL Brewers Uno coming up to bat in the 9th to try to extend the game. At least the DSL-2 held on to win. Anderson and Tovar both 2-4 to help lead the offense.
  16. I know but for a few years it looked like that was not going to be the case. Stupid pitchers hitting. However, compare the Suppan Brewers years to those of Nelson: Nelson 4.6 to Suppan -0.7 (bWAR with MIL only)
  17. The general premise is that you select a player you like first knowing that they may not be available for the next selection, and then if that other player is still there (Miz in 2022; Bitonti & Pratt last year) you select them and do what you can with the slot money. The other part is that if you take said player higher and they don't sign you lose a bigger piece of the slot pool (ie Pratt last year). But most teams know that they will sign their top 10 round selections, and the rates of non-signing is very low and the ones I recall are very unusual situations (injury; or occasionally I would guess it was miscommunication where a scout/team may have assumed a player was willing to for a set amount). The Corey Ray comp stuff reminds me of the 2010 draft when Jimmy Nelson was selected and his comp was Jeff Suppan lol.
  18. Ugh. Pretty bad day throughout the organization. The Brewers pre ASG slump is real, and apparently infectious in a bad way
  19. Great review. It highlights that a good draft nets a few MLB regulars, and a great draft gets a HOF/Perennial All Star player. So even though some had 7-8 MLBers, most were fringe and not regular. Also interesting you counted J. Burnitz as part of the 1987 draft when he didn’t sign - was drafted a few years later by the Mets before get traded to Cleveland and then to Milwaukee in the Kevin Seitzer trade. So he WAS drafted by the Brewers, but did not join us directly from the draft.
  20. Mitchell played 12 games at AAA and had an OPS of > 1.000. So he did have a mini ramp up and looked good in a small # of games (maybe not quite spring training by still a good number). He may not do much better in AAA. He is either off with timing or just still adjusting to big league pitching. He is still struggling mightily but not sure how to improve it - more practice, time with coaches/video etc. Less regular playing time to set up better match ups?
  21. Bad news - Misiorowski lost the no hitter, but seriously he has 4 IP, 6K 0BB, and on,y 45 pitches to get thru 4. It is 6-0 Shuckers. While the TRats have got the offense going Lara with his 2nd HR this season (let’s go Luis!) and the Luke Adams decides to swing the bat and hits a 2 run HR (oh yeah Areinamo got on with a single surprise). So 3-0 now CFRod wiggles out of a base loaded jam, with it remaining a 2-1 deficit.
  22. And Peña only misses out because his walk rate is less 10%, Jose Anderson due to his K rate 18%. So all said and done there could be 3-5 of these players. The big 4 (made, Peña, Anderson, Ortuno) rank 3,5,6,17 in wRC+, and 2, 4, 11, 12 in OPS for the DSL.
