    Ugh. First hitter bottom 9. HR. 10-10

    Right. The Barrios, Areinamo, Adams trio is doing great things. Lara has such promise and so so young. But he is struggling right now. Really hasn't been what we expected from him as a hitter since his injury. But prior to that Barrios, Areinamo, O'Rae, Adams and Lara were a fearsome five-some of 19-20 year olds at season's start. Need to get Guilarte to start hitting in Zebulon to join these guys. But would be nice if Lara could turn his season around.

    So a 5-2 day so far (with ACL Brew Crew well behind and likely to take the loss, but it is Arizona, and crazy things happen). Stars of the day 5. P. Aquino - 6IP of relief pitching, very well done, 2 H, 2 R (1ER), 2 BB and 6 K 4. Gregory Barrios 4-5, SB, 3 runs scored, and an RBI 3. Brewer Hicklen, 3-5 with a HR. But the two non-hits were Ks. 2. M. Rodriguez - 6 IP start with 3H, 1 BB and 6 K. Great start by the 18 yo kid. 1. Carlos D. Rodriguez, 4-5 with 2 doubles, and no strikeouts

    Overall nice pitching performances for the DSL clubs. And I had to check - we have three DSL games. I couldn't find Hoff's performance at first. Only 4 ER allowed in three games. THe offense a little light compared to the usual, but still hitting: outhitting the opponents 18 hits to 8, and 3 2B and a HR. But the DSL-2 lose the doubleheader as Quintana strikes out swining, they lose 4-0. Qunitana 0-4 with 3K in the 2nd game. Would love to see him start to hit, but I'll take the season so far for the Pena/Made/Ortuno trio of the DSL-1 club

    outfield is one of those positions where things can sort themselves out. Some of the infielers in the system (ORae, Baez) could shift to the OF if they don't find a defensive home. The team seems try to sign/draft CF and SS (I mean it seems half of the ACL and DSL squads were CF/SS at time of draft/IFA signing), and let them find a home if they hit. But agree - another OF bat or two to push Yopehery and Lara, and eventually compete or replace the MLB OFs currently there. But it is not an area of "need" for the next couple of seasons given that Chourio is signed, Frelick/Perkins/Mitchell are pre-arb.

    Wichrowski - struggling a little in AA, but also just 21 and only drafted last year, but should be HM on that list I agree with Letson, Patrick and definitely Cornielle.

    Bad Miz night. Oh well. He has 2 nice starts. Consistency is the one thing he is lacking and needs to find it somewhere. Arm talent is there. And I’m sure the drive is there.
  8. biedergb
    Stars of the day 5. Clarke 2-3 with 2 walks, 4. Wood 1-1, 2BB 3. DiTuri 2-3 with a walk 2. A. Cornielle 6IP, 3H, 1BB, 5K 1. I. Collins 3-5, 2B, HT

    No info on pitch velocity but found this report on him. Also he has been highlighted here by Harold, one of the great BrewerFanatic staff writers. https://pitcherlist.com/pitchers-to-know-from-the-dominican-summer-league/

    I watched his performance (finally) No radar gun - but has a nice curveball, maybe 2 fastballs that can be flat but can have run (maybe it’s one vs the other??), and a good change up that flat out fooled a few hitters. First inning very shaky. Lead off man gets. Solid hit. Then he appeared too worried about the runner and walked the next man with a few non-competitive pitches. A double and then the mound visit. He settled in helped by a nice defensive play by Aguilar the to gun the runner at home. Solid second and third (I think three fly outs to CF). Fourth inning he had two strikeouts that were not called. In one the C Diaz threw to third after the pitch, only to have to immediately apologize to the ump. Next close pitch ball 4. Not sure. Next hitter another ball on what looked like strike 3, next pitch base hit. He got a strike out and ground out to en the inning. Other than the first he seemed in control. Some pitches were flat and hit hard for huts, or a few just missed and were fouls. But also really had some hitters fooled on a few occasions. If there are any “scouting reports” with his actual arsenal - I will also look. Of note, Chris Edwards did state that people compare him to Freddy Peralta, and that he also believes that Cortez could be a rapid riser (not sure if that’s just filing void because he was DSL last year the ACl to low A, or if Chris heard discussions about that?)

    That's a great point @LouisEly 2019 was a disaster of a draft, although wasn't it bad for all? Either way - the best players are not in the organization (Hamilton and Kelly). D. Miller could become a MLBer maybe. And Jeferson Figueroa, Nick Kahle and Nick Bennet are the only draft picks (4) still in the organization a mere 5 years later. That is very bad as a draft class.

    TRats sweep the DH. A combined score of 16-1 wow 10-1 earlier and 6-0 in the night cap Thats a 5-3 day for the affiliates (TRats 2W, Mudcats W, DSL Wx2)
  13. biedergb
    Carlos F. Rodriguez comes in for Hall. Walks the first man. Then a couple of singles. Line out by a great leaping catch by Dorian saves some runs. Pop up. But the next guy hits a hard single to RF. And Jacksonville gets 2 runs. A grounder ends it. Carlos did not look sharp. Meanwhile Shane Smith having uncharacteristic struggles. Gave up a HR in the first. In the third - walk, hit and HBP loads the bases. But a K and then a GIDP. Phew. Still it’s 57 pitches through 3 IP TRats are up big. Currently 10-1 And Carolina looking to end it. And a strike out by Chourio. 5-3 Mudcats win. Great start by Letson and a huge 2 inning save by newly signed Tyler Bryant.

    Peña still flirting with a BA of ~.500. Wow
  15. biedergb
    Not surprising that most of those drafts were in the 1990s. Really 1994-1997 were a lot of nothing leading to the futility of the late 90s and early 00s. 1998 was the year they went for high upside and while Gold and Neugie didn’t pan out it demonstrated a shift. Bill Hall turned out to be a key piece. 1999 got us Sheets. And 2000 we whiffed on Krynzel but got Corey Hart another huge piece. Then the picks were a lot better in the 200s until we had a drought in the 2010-2014 drafts again. But even those drafts were not as bad as the 1990-1997 years.

    Bonus stars for the Logan’s Run reference. Interesting, odd and obscure sci fi movie. It’s definitely a 1960s style sci fi with social commentary. Worth a watch. Great outing by him and Josh Knoth regardless of his height. I always thought he looked more of a 6’0” even than taller but regardless if he keeps pitching well that’s all we can ask for.
  17. biedergb
    AZ BrewCrew doing things in the first. 2-0. Bitonti in the heart of it with a 2B… although let’s see if it was him, maybe another imposter
  18. biedergb
    And J. Peña closes the door - 5-2 Mudcats victory.
  19. biedergb
    Logan Henderson had the hiccup in 3. Otherwise nada. 5.2 IP, 10K!! 2BB and 3H (2H and a BB in inning #3). Left a runner on 2nd. Russell Smith gets the last out to strand ‘em. Still 5-2. Henderson with a very nice start to his AA career so far.
  20. biedergb
    Your brewers affiliates are brought to by the numbers 5-2 Mudcats up 5-2 in the 8th Through 5 innings, Biloxi and Nashville both up 5-2 as well
  21. biedergb
    Mudcats get 2 back via Pratt 2B, errors, and then a single. 2-2 ugh 3rd innings for Ashby and Henderson. Both cruising (or so) for 2. Henderson rebounds to end the inning after a 2B then HR then walk. Ashby allows triple, wild pitch, out then 4 pitch walk, SB and PB. And finally ends it after allowing 2 runs himself. 4 BB, 4 H in 3 IP. Pitch count 66!! Oh boy. We will see what he can do the rest of the game.
  22. biedergb
    I though Bitonti had a HR last night, but the final box score has him 2-5 with a K, and the HR was Ordonez? Obviously no video feed to confirm, so Gameday was incorrect and the Box score is correct is what I would have to presume?
  23. biedergb
    Not watching right now. But Mitchell was lifted for pinch hitter. Hoping purely precautionary since he got a hit in the 3rd. Was stranded. Played the field twice. And it’s a 8-0 blowout against the Sounds as Taylor Clarke is struggling. KC Hunt doing well though 4. Bats quiet. It’s been a rough month for Barrios (after his fast start) and Lara (really since his injury). E. Cortez with a nice start for that young man. Bullpen giving it away as Lynchburg now leads 5-4 after a 3-1 lead for Cortez. Shuckers appear to be in a rain delay. Up 1-0 bottom of 3. Wichrowski thru 3IP with 2H, 3BB, 2K 0R.
  24. biedergb
    Apparently Yeager made ‘em sweat. Singles, out, out ,single, the 3 run HR. 5-4 holds for the victory.
  25. biedergb
    Offense has seemed to spark since ORae call up.
