    Wow, this paints such an ugly scene for latin american scouting. But in a big money sport I guess it is inevitable, and while difficult to state I am sure the Brewers are guilty (as is every MLB team) in perpetuation some of these problems, including the so far reported (and obviously never confirmed because it would be illegal to do so) pre-acuerdas with 13 year olds. I am not a fan of the international draft per se, but this if all substantiated would change my mind, and I suspect that was the intent of the article.

    Nice organizational debut by Andrew Healy, but looks like Carra ran into some trouble in the 3rd and 4th. DeBerry with a wonderful 5 IP for Biloxi. While 4 Shuckers so far have gotten on base twice, including Damon Keith, O'Rae and Made too. T-Rats get a nice start from Galindez - his first outing since his injury recovery?? The T-Rats offense very efficient with 4 Runs on 4 hits and 4 BB despite 11 Ks.

    yes. outside of a 2 month stretch last year (April - May) and a good first month as a professional, he has had struggles. Now some have been written off to his injuries, so this will be a big test. His power is legit, but his swing and miss is a real concern.

    Love the updates this past week @Tedaldtada I hope to join in a bit more this week or the following week. Daniel and sveumrules are keeping it going as usual for them. I will get back into it soon I hope and I believe Joseph will not be as hands on this season I believe per his comments on the minor league recaps.

    Not a surprise as the brewers have been among the younger teams at the lower ranks for a couple of years and as these players move up they will remain young. Heck even Nashville must be among the younger clubs, although AAA is always skewed with vets and AAAA types, but adams, Wilken, Pratt, Lara, Quero, Williams all born 2002 or later.

    Fischer with some nice plays at 3rd. Another nice catch to bail out Yerlin. Meccage and Yerlin struggling with throwing strikes.
  7. biedergb
    oh it's been full Yerlin - yikes, 16 pitches and only 6 Ks (3 are foul balls). He cannot hit the broad side of the barn.

    it's Yelin time 😵
  9. biedergb
    Hey he was 2nd choice as pick to click (after Hunt was traded).
  10. biedergb
    Love it. Great call back.

    Strange for Hernandez- repeating the year and then being active for the first week. I wonder if something odd is going on with him?
  12. biedergb
    With the talent that has been in Carolina the past few years, the inaugural season for the warbirds have some nice pieces, but as far as high level prospect it’s really Ebel. also surprised Melvin Hernandez is here again?!?
  13. biedergb
    I wonder if Fischer starting there is a reaction to 2024 when they bumped Wilken up to AA. Yes the injury both years were big factors, bit imagine if Wilken started hot in Wisconsin, and continued that all year. Maybe the hole is give Fischer a good environment to excel in to start, and assuming he does then bump him up.

    Nashville gets the ghost runner home but Williams and Pratt strand the bases loaded ugh. Then old friend who has returned RP Peter Strzelecki gives up the tie run, and then old friend Weston Wilson wins the game. Two close losses with blown leads by the bullpen, and yes so far littel production from the young prospects on the offense side of the ledger. Young season.

    he is not signed per se, and will only officially be signed in January 2030, then will have the normal number of years for an internation signee (which I have to look up) but in 2030 it may be different rules as well.
  16. biedergb
    oof Wilken. I worry that the April-June 2025 Wilken was the aberration. I hope not, but just a worry.
  17. biedergb
    And in a 20 team league the Brewers account for 5 of those 30 young hitting prospects- that is quite significant. And their pitching is youngish too - Gasser, Rodriguez, Henderson, Crow along with Kuener and Drohan as SP options - amazing depth that keeps Hardin, Letson, DeBerry all at AA.
  18. biedergb
    good for Quero this is exciting, but what the heck with the hand injuries. It has been all these weird injuries - the labrum tears (Nelson, Quero, and was Mitchell a labrum too?) and now it's the hand (Contreras last year, and now BOTH Chourio and likely Vaughn). C'mon can we catch a break please. I tell you March/April is mixed with such anticipation AND gut wrenching disappointment with the injury news (last year it was every starting pitcher and I think their neighbors were hurt too), this year it is Priester, Henderson, Chourio, Vaughn already....

    Well he signed a bunch. Back then it was more of a quantity over quality idea as they were trying to establish in the LA market. I still remember the first international FAs that I read about in the late 1990s or was it 2000 - Cristian Guerrero who was Vlad”s cousin, and Hector Garcia. Neither panned out but the team did sigh a bunch, and then tried a few high dollar signings I have to look it up, and then more recently in the past 10 years it has been a quality and quantity approach and going to Venezuela and Panama and Nicaragua to the regions that were not already “owned” by the Yankees/Dodgers etc. i think the approach of quality and quantity, the solid presence in DR, Venezuela and other places, the investment into scouting and the facilities have put the Brewers on a far better place for the IFA market than the 2000s or most of the 2010s.

    @Jim Goulart thanks for trip down memory lane. I fondly and vividly remember those Power 50 days - and the link report - and scribbling my “projected” line up in year + 2. This was the only way a fan from out of town could really follow the brewers and the system back then. You and Toby and (I had to look it up) Patrick Eberts draft previews and reviews (of which I still have the 2003-2004 reviews printed out somewhere in my files) and I’m missing a few. But Anyway back to the present and future… And what a sight for sore eyes. A minor league link report. Minor leagues baseball is back again. Bummer of a loss but a fun start for Gasser and Lara and Pratt.

    And old friend Enoli Paredes the winner despite giving up the HR to make it a 4-0 lead right before the Sounds give up a 6 run inning to lose the lead.
  22. biedergb
    Welp I see the biedergb curse is on at mid-season form lol. Great start, but the AAA bullpen, yikes. Follow Gasser's lead, and note what the big league pen did, but Waguespack and Peralta give away the lead. Now Childers is in - maybe a prospect will get the pitching back on track.
  23. biedergb
    So Gasser sees Miz going 5 IP with 11 K and says, "oh that's what you need to do to be in the bigs, well...." That may be among the best SP opening day starts for MIL MLB/AAA, and two young arms doing it as well is awesome. Fun start.
  24. biedergb
    I just noticed, that it is Quero with Rodriguez (and Nava as the 3rd C). So neither Miller nor Wood will be in AAA to start the year, so I suspect they both start at AA, which pushes Dinges back to A+? Still a prospect laden starting staff, and the roster has more real prospects than in years past with Pratt, Williams, Wilken, Adams, Lara and Quero. That's 4-5 starting pitchers, and likely 5-6 positional players each day. Very very nice
  25. biedergb
    Looking a lot like Jett Williams and/or Tyler Black will be in the OF to start the year given the crowded IF and the only OF listed as Jones and Lara. Lara will man CF for sure, so it will be RF or LF for Jett and Tyler I suspect, unless E. Leonard will play in the grass. Rotation is likely Rodriguez, Henderson, Drohan, Gasser with Kuehner, Rom, Crow as the likely 5th option depending on how they want to develop Kuehner and Crow now. They typically have one vet in the rotation, although at this time point C. Rod may be that AAAA vet.
