    Ortuno and Lafond with their first HRs. Ortuno - he is smaller -so either we see a growth spurt or he size/power may limit his future profile, like many Brewers prospects.

    It will be interesting to see if other clubs use that model/approach for this draft after seeing what the Brewers did last year.

    Another couple of questions for the group- 1, For young pitchers (16-19 yo) in DSL/ACL/Low A - what is a reasonable expectation for growth/height, and expected increase in velocity? I see several smaller pitchers (ie W. King in DSL) and not sure if they would expect to grow enough? And others like M. Rodriguez in low A - how much uptick in velocity is possible? 2. For prospects as a whole who have a year that breaks their trend (ie Luis Lara, or Gregory Barrios from this year): is it more likely that those who struggle (or are average) then break out have more of a chance of continuing success? Or those who have had success and have a down year - ore likely to revert back or stall out?

    Another good start stats wise from Cortez. @wiguy94 did you watch? If do how did he do? I will try to watch tomorrow- won’t be watching any games tonight.

    Pretty impressive run this first half so far and not expected by many, outside the faithful (and I was not one of those in spring training, sorry, but happy to be proven wrong). Great season so far. Yet in the typical for Brewers fashion they slump heading to the ASG. (Didn’t we lose 5 straight to the pirates in 2018 or 2019 heading to the all star game?) Hopefully the team can get it going like most years after the break. Hopefully they will finish the season as started and work on unfinished business in October. Stay undaunted.

    So the top affiliates (AAA,AA,A+,A) gave up a grand total of 6 runs in 4 games yesterday, and 4 wins And today, a grand total of 4 runs in 3 games, and a 3-0 record (with a rainout). Pretty impressive pitching for the affiliates the past two days.

    True. Inning 2 for him was shaky, but his 4th inning (the 8th inning) was his best. I think all his pitches were good, maybe one that was a total miss. But had batters guessing with the curve, slider, fastball and even a change up. Don't recall that from last month, but it may have been called something else in other games/telecasts.

    Biloxi with a 5 spot to also sport an 11-2 lead, as Nashville closes the 11-2 win. Who had 11-2 in scoreboard bingo? And who had 7K in 5IP for Ashby. He was much more in control tonight. Looks like the in few innings I have seen he is closer to 50-60% locating pitches which was more like 40% a month ago. So a noticeable bump. Some pitches were poorly executed, but he was more in command. And the fastball even got some bad swings which is a great sign even for one night. Plus velocity was still up to 96 in his 3rd inning of relief.

    Let's go Ashby. I can only hope this is the turnaround. But I thought that about a month ago too. I will have to watch his performance from tonight and compare it to June to see if I am ready to believe.

    And funny I’m answering in this thread — and not letting the experts answer. My bad 😬 whoops

    I think Patrick could be - let’s see what the season brings for him. McKendry may but hasn’t had as much upward trajectory this year, and may be passed by several others. Cornielle - has the upside but not likely a MLB rule 5 candidate given this is his primary break out year at 22/23 in high A. He doesn’t have the pure stuff to be a middle reliever in the bigs next year using someone else roster space. The next two are tough. Both relievers in the upper levels with stuff that could pitch in the bigs. I see maybe a 40 man protection on one, or more likely a trade.
  12. biedergb
    He becomes the UT player that I was hoping Guilarte would become this year. Affiliates and MLB teams can use players like that. Not predicting anything but just saying he is an under the radar players who may not have prospect status, but historically the Brewers have found these guys (think Perkins, Monasterio) and gotten solid contributions out of them.

    This may have just made my week!!! A rehabbing Baez means he could be coming back to the Mudcats in the next few weeks. That would be so awesome. I know a very good infielder who they could promote up to Wisconsin, even if Baez is not a SS, but getting him at 3B means Guilarte/DiTuri can cover SS/2B.
  14. biedergb
    TRats and Mudcats have been so much fun to watch, and they have been so good most of the season with mostly young players. Shuckers are starting play what many of us (or maybe just me?) expected given that roster plus the reinforcements. ACL and DSL have entertaining box scores for sure. fun times to follow the Brewers minor leagues right now. And yes the draft around the corner, giving us a few more players to follow. I mean not every draft can be like 2023 where there are about a dozen players to follow. That is not the norm.

    For me - a solid month of July. If he can get to the 5th inning I’d move him up late season If pitch count, control and inconsistency still plague him, he stays in AA until next year for me. ‘For a prospect like him I see it’s about consistency and development- his stuff can play, but has to get deep into games on a regular basis and make it work even when his stuff isn’t all there. I am in a minority and probably harsher on him than others - I have a soft spot for some struggling or undervalued players who I will still defend (Lara for example; most of Wisconsin pitching staff as undervalued like Rodriguez, Cortez, Letson). But Misiorowski can be a star if and big IF he can learn consistency start to start, inning to inning. I don’t know that moving him up when he isn’t doing that right now.

    So that’s four pitchers needed for 2 games. Low hits, no ER allowed. Very very nice start to the series for TRats pitching, and solid hitting to boot

    What about riding 3C for a week or two. Get Contreras some days off or whatever is needed to get him to mvp level again. A line up with Yeli, Contreras hitting and Adames/Hoskins being threats will be solid come September. Once Haase cools you can try to send him down again, or try to trade him. But July could be a good time to get some rest for some key players like Contreras.

    Since Luke had his rare 3 K start to last night - all looking I believe- he has now reached bases 5 times consecutively single last night in his last AB, 2 BB today, then HBP, now 2B And Lara has two hits both hit hard. Missed a homer by about 3-5 feet today. A strong second half for him would be such a welcomed development since he is one of only a few OF prospects and while very young he is not hitting much this season.
  19. biedergb
    Hot dog. It’s salami time. Valerio GS makes it a 5-0 TRats lead. No surprise that Adams is 0-0 with 2BB and scored a run on Valerio’s slam.
  20. biedergb
    What about Cornielle. Since his rough April, he has had 9 starts, almost 49 IP, and only 8 ER, and only 28 hits. With a K:BB of 41:18. Can cut down on the walks a bit, but that’s quite a run.
  21. biedergb
    Aquino with a 4 inning save. Shutout combo with Cornielle/Aquino and yes some Ks in tha game ; 11K by the two of them to only 2BB.
  22. biedergb
    Would love the big boys in Milwaukee. But not likely. Ugh
  23. biedergb
    Adams take the bat off his shoulder and what do you know-a single up the middle.
  24. biedergb
    Yeager 3 up and 3 down. Shuckers with a big come back win. Hopefully that’s a theme tonight - comeback wins for the good guys.
  25. biedergb
    Final Mudcats win it on a high fly ball to LF. ORae with a walk but Rodriguez with a solid liner but to the OF. Shuckers on to the 9th now up 5-4. Let's see who gets to close it out for biloxi. Aquino allows two hits trying to keep it scoreless. Let’s get that 3rd out of the 8th and yes a K. 4-0 heading to bottom 8. Solid pitching by TRats (Cornielle for 5, Aquino for 3).
