    That makes 6 prospects in BA's top 100. Pretty good.
  2. biedergb
    Or like a three year average or composite, as the Brewers clubs have been good (or really good in '24) for a few years top to bottom. Still top 3 in overall records for the organization, and this year feels like a "down" year. Yeah I know expectations...
  3. biedergb
    Gonna throw it out again - any one see/hear anything to explain Bitonti’s absence the past 4 games?
  4. biedergb
    Add on run in the top of the 9th, and a 1-2-3 for Childers in the 9th, and a 14-8 final! Laughably it is Mark Manfredi as the winning pitcher.
  5. biedergb
    And Tyler Bryant answers the bell. Ground out, 4-pitch walk, then K and a 3 pitch strike! On to the 9th, Shuck Yeah!
  6. biedergb
    Lara with a lead off double then scores on an errant pick off attempt. 13-8. But 3 Ks to Wilken/Warren/Miller. On to the bottom of 8 - let's just get some outs here and no craziness please! Thanks for linking that post @Ro Mueller and thanks for the insight @Spencer Michaelis Odd if they were angry at 1B Ibarra and chirping at him, they "throw" at the guy before him (2B PItelli) in the line up, give up a HR to Ibarra, and then 2 batters later (C Hunter). Would have to see if the 2B or C were involved in the hoopla around the Shuckers homers.

    And lost in all of this is Brock Wilken with another HR. His 17th this season along with 15 doubles, which is exactly what he did last year in about 60% of the games/ABs. Next HR will set his personal records for HRs in a season. And look at that - Luke Adams 11th HR, ties his season high which has done exactly twice, 11 HR in 2023 at Carolina, and 11 HR in 2024 at Wisconsin. Boeve is at 4 HR, and he had 5 HR in '23 and 6 in '24.

    Bryant comes in and throws a wild pitch. This 7th inning has been pretty wild. And gets a ground out. Runner on 3rd with 2 outs. And Bryant Ks the next batter to end the threat. Phew. It's 12-8, but man that was crazy with the top of the inning and then the weirdness in the bottom. Hope Manfredi is OK, because that is just bizarre to be that wild. Unless there was bush league stuff going on (I haven't watched the game or a lot of the series to know if there was beef with those hitters??)

    And Manfredi is indeed ejected. For his second HBP in the inning I would presume and the fact it was over his head (glancing the helmet). Not sure what happened, first I worry for Manfredi as an injury since that was just an awful sequence - HBP, HR, K, HBP. And Ayrault is tossed. 3 Chattanooga player/coaches, and 2 Biloxi player/coaches ejected in the past 5 minutes.
  10. biedergb
    Manfredi hit another batter - on the top of the helmet. Either is command is way, way, way off, or some shenanigans are going on. C'mon Shuckers just get outs and move along. What is going on here??
  11. biedergb
    And a bunch of Chattanooga personnel (I think coaches only?) get thrown out. Next pitch Manfredi throws the pitch and Ibarra (who has killed Biloxi this series) just crushes a 2 run HR. Oh boy it's a 12-8 game now. Yikes. C'mon Manfredi settle in and let's get these outs here.
  12. biedergb
    As I was looking up Bitonti's absence, Shuckers offense decided to put up a TD (no extra point) and it is now 12-6!! Wow, going to bottom of 7, and Manfredi in for his 2nd inning. And he hits the first batter. Uh oh. Looking through the box scores: TRats with 10 runs on 12 hits and 11 walks, they left 9 on base, could have done more damage. They answered the call for offense. Sounds with 9 hits, 2 of which were Dalbec bombs. Mudcats - at least Made had a good day at the plate 2-3 with 2 walks.
  13. biedergb
    Just curious - has anyone heard or seen anything on Bitonti? He hasn't played since 6/11 (Wed). And if he is getting a mental break time off, wonder if Braylon Payne can use that as well. Finally on the Mudcats - fun exercise - this team is as young as Freshman dominated college squad, wonder how they would fare in the CWS with all those 18-20 years, with Hernandez/Meccage/Smith/Dubanewica as the starters....
  14. biedergb
    Well, it looks like most of the offenses woke up. Wow Biloxi and Wisconsin!!!
  15. biedergb
    Outside of Nashville a pretty inauspicious start across the board. As you can imagine, not a lot of hits for the affiliates (yes early on in most games) but just not a lot offense. Hoping that the pitching can hold up, but a lot of shorter outings (Birchard already out) as most are the Tuesday starters I believe. Going for a run, hoping the offenses can find a way to come alive
  16. biedergb
    Ok. I’ll be in the minority and play devil’s advocate. I also am one who doesn’t love the “bites of the apple” approach. Even though I have been a fan and followed Brewer baseball from 1987 on, and watched the 1993 - 2007 decade and a half of losing baseball with no playoffs. Now I am all for the team trying to remain competitive, but this season does not seem likely (yes I know it’s not even July 4 yet), but with Contreras playing hurt and struggling, Yelich being streaky, and first half players like Frelick and Turang not having seen the second half yet, I would punt on this season, and try to continue the build around Contreras, Chourio, Peralta, MIs, and add the prospects along the way. I would love to see a team that is division’s best and challenge the top teams like 2018, 2021, and what could have been in 2024. But I’ll be happy to be wrong if the team forces itself into the buyers market with a solid July. But right now the tea leaves I see are telling me they can remain in the wild card chase, but don’t feel like a top contender.

    Funny thing is that the box score still has the pitcher J. Lugo listed as the batter who was catcher for the DSL Blue club, when in all likelihood it was probably Y. Lugo, although that is still not adjusted in the MiLB scoreboard, so who knows? Maybe Justin Lugo is converting to catching, in which case,he went 2-4 in his debut😉
  18. biedergb
    Either way I’ll take his development as if he does K more but with more gap power, his defense is steady, not great, but good at all three IF spots (granted I’ve seen him most at 2B and SS but I believe he has played 3B and I didn’t notice so that’s good/bad). He has been a nice prospect to watch this season, particularly in light of Bitonti and Payne significant struggles and Adamczewski’s injury, it’s really now Made/Pena/DiTuri at the moment just trying to keep that offense afloat.
  19. biedergb
    And TRats still have nothing going offensively. 9-1 in the 6th. Mudcats get one back but still trail 7-5. And only 7 hits to get those 5 runs. Shuckers 0-0 early. Also - ready for this - getting outhit.
  20. biedergb
    Maybe I need to turn it off. After a K by Flores, the next batter (Hawke) gets a double and it’s now 6-4 deficit for the Mudacts. Man this slump is real, and not fun to watch. TRats go down in order. Offense did not wake up. OK I’ll take a quick break.
  21. biedergb
    And Welch’s night is done after a triple. It’s now 5-4 Hillcats lead. And Flores is in. Garcia gets out of the 3rd, but it’s a 7-1 deficit. TRats will need to get the offense going and hold the Loons off the board from here on out if they have a chance to start a comeback/
  22. biedergb
    Gulp. 2 more runs. 7-1 Loons over TRats. And Welch walks the next batter. Yikes. These two college draft picks from last year are not finding their footing tonight.
  23. biedergb
    Ok. I won’t praise any pitchers anymore 😟 ‘Chandler Welch walks first batter of the 6th and gives up a HR. Tied game now. Ugh. Garcia gives up a pair more runs. 5-1 deficit..
  24. biedergb
    Oh boy. I’m not watching but Juan Baez ejected after a ground out - must have been upset with the call??? I’ll try to watch later. Sam Garcia ok, but Dinges with a K, and PB and a catcher interference error already. Carolina clinging to a 4-2 lead. Chandler Welch through 5. Only 1 BB which will be the key for him. 7 hits allowed, but only 1 XBH. Maybe he can turn the corner this summer in Carolina.
  25. biedergb
    And Yeager gives up a 2-out single - stop me if you heard that before - but gets the next batter to pop out. 7-2 Shuckers win. An incredible first half continues for them. Let’s hope Cornielle can match Crow this evening in the night capper. TRats tied the game then give up 2 runs. And it’s a 3-1 game early. Let’s see if their magic can continue.
