    Confirmed another unsurprising assignment to start the year- RHP Harold Chirino will head to AAA Nashville
  2. ARobsBrewCrew
    3B Luke Adams will begin his second full professional season with the Rattlers. Not a surprising assignment, but still impressive as just a 19-year-old on Opening Day.
  3. ARobsBrewCrew
    Not sure when we will see his name in the lineup, but he looked completely healthy when I saw him earlier this week.
  4. ARobsBrewCrew
    Interesting that no information was posted about the first week or so of MiLB games. Glad to see the return of spring lineup posts.
  5. ARobsBrewCrew
    Oh, and he has been a two-way guy this winter with strong results (considering his long layoff) on both sides of the ball.
  6. ARobsBrewCrew
    Not sure if this has been reported already, but RHP Jolon “Lun” Zhao, a once promising Brewers farmhand with a jaw-dropping curveball that retired in 2022 due to a lengthy injury history, is back playing in the U.S. in the California Winter League and hopes to rejoin affiliated ball at some point in the near future.
  7. ARobsBrewCrew
    He’ll be 22 in A+ which will likely be more than a full year younger than the average age for that level.
  8. ARobsBrewCrew
    Not official as of yet, but it seems that the Brewers are signing 1B/C Andy Yerzy to a minor league contract.
  9. ARobsBrewCrew
    I don’t think Dave Arnold would have the authority to say yes or no. Matt Arnold perhaps
  10. ARobsBrewCrew
    Just what I’ve seen and heard from those in and around the organization (and Baez himself), but I respect your glass half-full mentality. It’s not a knock on Báez, just the reality of his skillset which, yes, can change/improve, but it’s often more beneficial to help build up a player in the environment where they can more easily thrive rather than challenge them with a task that isn’t likely to work out well in the first place.

    Wilken, at this point, will likely end up as the everyday third baseman in a couple years. Black will handle the hot corner until then and then will likely split his time 1B/2B/3B/OF/DH. As long as they get Black regular ABs they don’t care where he is playing. Also, once again, Juan Baez is not a shortstop going forward. Yes, he’ll continue to see time there and may need to play there regularly at times when he is the best option at whatever level he finds himself due to injury/promotion of better defensive options. However, please stop floating the question of him being a bat-first SS of the future when that has been discussed already on many of your threads.

    I think it’s fair to say that C-Rod has the highest floor of any pitcher in the organization if we are talking specifically about starting. Gasser, at least for me, doesn’t come particularly close at this point, purely in terms of floor. In my head, if I had to choose one starter from the organization to be the guy going forward, I seriously question whether it would be Miz or C-Rod simply due to the risk with Miz (health, durability, probability of transitioning to relief). I think it’s fair to leave Gasser out of this convo for now. Knoth might be up there too, just a different timeline altogether like you said.
  13. ARobsBrewCrew
    If I had my way- Peralta Miley Gasser Rea Ashby if healthy / Junk otherwise I need to see Joe Ross in the spring before handing him 5th spot, although, if Ashby IS healthy, I would rather have AA anyways. I would like C-Rod to get at least half of a season at AAA before he could move into the big league rotation. I am also quite high on Evan McKendry and wouldn’t be surprised if he ended up in there somewhere. I don’t see Misiorowski starting for Milwaukee in ‘24, but he might get some meaningful innings out of the bullpen late in the season.
  14. ARobsBrewCrew
    Brewers might have the deepest collection of Rodriguez’s in all of baseball. 2 Carlos’, Yophery, Yerlin, Manuel, Brailin, Aneuris, Alejandro, Donis, and now Ramon.
  15. ARobsBrewCrew
    The Brewers have signed C Ramon Rodriguez to a minor league contract. The 25-year-old Puerto Rican backstop was drafted by the Dodgers and has spent the past few seasons in the Orioles organization, climbing as high as AAA.
  16. ARobsBrewCrew
    Didn’t read the article, but we’ve discussed multiple times on this site already that Baez isn’t a shortstop going forward. Yes, he’ll still see some time there on occasion, but the combination of him simply being better suited elsewhere and other, more defensively advanced options in the system have pushed him out of that position.
  17. ARobsBrewCrew
    Suffice to say that it will, along with starting pitching, be a focus in these upcoming trades.
  18. ARobsBrewCrew
    I don’t think he’ll be there all year, but then again I was told he would see time in A+/AA at the end of this past season and that didn’t happen. I think the plan, which goes against what I’ve personally heard in the past, is to take things slow with him given the history of his elbow.
  19. ARobsBrewCrew
    By all means, Henderson will be starting 2024 with the Timber Rattlers.
  20. ARobsBrewCrew
    I am of the opinion that the only question remaining is whether Peralta will remain in Milwaukee. I don’t see Burnes, Adames, Williams, Houser, or TT returning. Peralta, however, has a chance at being the ace on the next Brewers team that makes a deep run in the postseason, whether that is in ‘25 or ‘26. In addition, I think that one or two of the young outfielders will be flipped as well. My preference would be to keep Mitchell and Frelick. Those moves would leave Milwaukee with possibly the deepest collection of young talent ever assembled. Alas, that’s just this guy’s opinion.
  21. ARobsBrewCrew
    RHP Luis Contreras has signed an MiLB contract with the Houston Astros.
  22. ARobsBrewCrew
    Andrews best pitch isn’t his fastball fyi
  23. ARobsBrewCrew
    There are other names that will factor in that decision, too, when the time comes. If I recall correctly, my understanding was that his focus would remain on the left side of the infield going forward. Of course, the shortstop position was already locked down for the most part by other slightly more polished players, defensively, when he was promoted. At this point, I believe Baez is the third baseman for the Mudcats. That is not to say that he won’t continue to get reps elsewhere in 2024 as the organization wants to build his comfort playing at multiple spots as well. Once again, we are a LONG way out, but Bitonti is not a sure thing to start in Carolina. Clearly, the organization is not hesitant to challenge young players with an aggressive full-season assignment, but at this point he is penciled in to start the year in the ACL. That being said, we all know how quickly things can change.

    Confirmed with Navarreto as I spoke with him this afternoon! Completely agree on Chirino, as well, glad to have them both back.
  25. ARobsBrewCrew
    From what I’m hearing, RHP Harold Chirino and C Brian Navarreto have both re-signed for 2024. Waiting on official confirmation at this point.
