  1. Wednesday activity: - CF Jackson Chourio - 0-for-3, walk, run - in Zulia’s 5-1 victory over Lara - CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 1-for-3, walk - in Magallanes’ 3-2 win over Caracas
  2. In late 2021, Gillaspie himself had tweeted about the 2019 release, but it seems that's since been deleted. If I recall, he was dealing with an injury and rehab, the Brewers offered reasonable support but weren't willing to keep holding a roster spot for him. Maybe we didn't think he'd make a full recovery or maybe we seriously under-valued him due to his late 2019 shift to the bullpen. Probably a bit of both.
  3. Not as much to smile at in Tuesday’s games: - CF Jackson Chourio - 0-for-4 in Zulia’s 4-0 loss to Lara - CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 0-for-4 in Magallanes’ 9-5 defeat to Margarita - RHP Christian Mejias - 2 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 0 BB, 3 Ks (ERA still 0.00) - in Aragua’s 4-2 loss to Caracas - RHP JC Mejia - 1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 1 BB, 1 K - in Licey’s 8-7 victory over Aguilas Cibaenas
  4. More Chourio success and Jimenez struggles on Sunday: CF Jackson Chourio - 3-for-5, triple, double, 3 RBIs - in Zulia's 6-2 victory over Magallanes CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 1-for-4 - in Magallanes' defeat LF Hedbert Perez - 2-for-5, RBI, run - made the most of his first start, though La Guaira fell 7-6 to Lara in extra innings RHP Edwin Jimenez - 2 IP, 2 R, 2 H, 0 BB, 2 Ks (ERA 10.38) - in La Guaira's loss
  5. Limited Saturday activity: CF Jackson Chourio - 1-for-2, walk, HBP, run (.366 AVG) - in Zulia's 6-2 loss to Magallanes CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 1-for-4, HBP, run, caught stealing (.306 AVG) - in Magallanes' victory LF Hedbert Perez - 0-for-1 off the bench in La Guaira's 9-0 defeat to Lara
  6. DH Wes Clarke was hit-by-pitch and scored in the Saguaros 4-run 5th inning, then doubled in a run in the 6th inning as his team opened up a 6-1 lead. As @markedman5 indicated, things got rough in the 9th inning, with a Rangers pitcher conceding 3 walks, then LHP Justin King not faring much better (walk, ground out, 2-run single). RHP Justin Yeager needed only three pitches to earn the Save in their 6-5 championship victory over Peoria. Summary of top performers. DH Wes Clarke - 1-for-3, double, walk, HBP, RBI, run SS Eric Brown Jr. - 0-for-4, walk LHP Justin King - 0.1 IP, 1 R, 1 H, 1 BB, 0 Ks RHP Justin Yeager (Save) - 0.1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 0 BB, 1 K
  7. Decent production on Friday, but we need to monitor Navarreto’s availability: - CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 3-for-4, double, walk, 2 RBIs - in Magallanes’ 9-6 victory over Lara. His 8th inning double pushed the lead from 5-3 to 7-3 - C Brian Navarreto - 1-for-3, but exited in the 5th inning after he was out at 2nd base on a double play ball - in Carolina’s 5-4 win over Caguas - RHP Christian Mejias - 1.2 IP, 1 R (0 ER), 2 H, 0 BB, 2 Ks (ERA still 0.00) - in Aragua’s 5-4 win over La Guaira
  8. Solid win for Surprise in their final regular season game, leading 6-1 before giving up a few runs in the 9th inning to prevail 6-4 over Glendale. We should see our young men in action one more time in Saturday's AFL championship game against Peoria or Scottsdale. SS Eric Brown Jr. - 2-for-4, HR, double, RBI DH Wes Clarke -2-for-3, double, RBI LHP Justin King - 1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 0 BB, 0 Ks - retired all 3 batters
  9. Thursday action: CF Jackson Chourio - 2-for-4, walk - Zulia came from from a 7-1 deficit to tie the game in the 8th inning, but lost 8-7 to Anzoategui CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 2-for-5 - in Magallanes' 4-1 defeat to Margarita RF Hedbert Perez 0-for-1 - came off the bench in La Guaira's 6-3 loss to Aragua
  10. Signed RHP Jose Nova and assigned to DSL Brewers 1 It appears this is the same 6'5" pitcher that the Red Sox signed in 2021 out of the Dominican Republic. He's yet to officially debut and will be 22 years old in April, so perhaps Nova will make the quick climb to Arizona?
  11. 20-year old OF Hedbert Perez is healthy (last played 18 July 2023) and has joined Tiburones de La Guaira in Venezuela. He actually debuted in Tuesday's 9-1 loss to Caracas, coming off the bench, playing left field and going 0-for-2:
  12. Brisbane has an exhibition game today and it looks like LHP Brian Fitzpatrick and 1B Tayden Hall are both starting:
  13. Surprise has already wrapped up a spot in the AFL Championship Saturday, with regular season games remaining on Wednesday and Thursday. Last night, four Brewers played in their 8-4 defeat to Mesa. RHP Joseph Hernandez got the start and was roughed up again: 4 IP, 4 R, 4 H, 1 BB, 4 Ks (9.45 ERA) LHP Adam Seminaris was terrific (retired first six batters) until he wasn't: 2.1 IP, 4 R, 3 H, 1 BB, 2 Ks - took the Loss (5.87 ERA) 2B Eric Brown Jr. - 1-for-4, double, run (.287 AVG, .800 OPS) 1B Wes Clarke - 0-for-3, walk (.282 AVG, .976 OPS)
  14. Chourio remained hot in Wednesday's game: CF Jackson Chourio - 3-for-5, double, RBI, 2 runs - in Zulia's 8-5 win over Anzoategui (his RBI double cut the deficit to 5-3 in the 5th inning, then he scored to tie it 5-5) CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 0-for-2, 3 walks - in Magallanes 3-2 defeat to La Guaira. He walked to lead off the 9th inning, but was stranded C Brian Navarreto - 0-for-2, 3 walks, RBI - in Carolina's 4-1 victory over Ponce
  15. Tuesday's contributions: CF Jackson Chourio - 2-for-5, double, walk, RBI - in Zulia's 6-2 victory over Antoategui CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 1-for-5, triple - in Magallanes 8-6 win over Aragua RHP Edwin Jimenez - 3 IP, 4 R, 6 H, 1 BB, 2 Ks - took the Loss in La Guaira's 9-1 defeat to Caracas RHP JC Mejia - 1 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 0 BB, 1 K - in Licey's 2-0 defeat to Estrellas Orientales. Licey was actually no-hit by RHP Edwin Uceta (25-year old minor league free agent) & four relievers
  16. Thank for this. The article leans RHP, perhaps because of confidence in Gasser. Lefty options which I saw @jay87shotmention (amongst other RHP options) were Hyun-Jin Ryu, James Paxton and Alex Wood. I figure this will be our focus, but time will tell.
  17. We don't have a list in one place, but instead have three threads which cover the activity: Arizona Fall League - SS Eric Brown Jr., 1B Wes Clarke, OF Hendry Mendez, LHP Adam Seminaris, RHP Justin Yeager, LHP Justin King, RHP Shane Smith, RHP Joseph Hernandez Australian Baseball League - LHP Brian Fitzpatrick, RHP Sam Gardner, 1B Tayden Hall Other Winter Leagues (Mexico, Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico) - OF Jackson Chourio, RHP Christian Mejias, RHP Kaleb Bowman, OF Carlos D. Rodriguez, INF Eduardo Garcia, RHP Edwin Jimenez, INF Jadher Areinamo, 1B Jesus Chirinos, LHP Jesus Broca, C Brian Navarreto (likely a free agent in a few days), LHP Fernando Abad (also likely a free agent), RHP JC Mejia (technically still a Brewer but suspended til late Sep 2024)
  18. Kapler or Shildt sound like decent options based on 5 minutes of desktop research.
  19. In the AFL All-Star Game, the Brewers' major highlight (Eric Brown Jr.'s homer) was captured above. The NL side had more opportunities, but went 0-for-13 with runners in scoring position, stranding 8 baserunners and falling 6-3 to the AL side. The AL team hit three home runs in the 4th/5th innings to stretch their lead from 2-1 to 6-2, with Brown's homer temporarily cutting the deficit to 5-2. Box score. SS Eric Brown Jr. - 1-for-2, HR, RBI - K'd the other time up; fielded 4 ground ball outs 1B Wes Clarke - 0-for-2 - K'd and flied out to right field I hate to say it, but OF Victor Scott is looking like a heckuva find for the Cardinals - 94 stolen bases in 2023 in High-A/AA, then another 16 already in 22 AFL games. He doubled, walked twice and stole 3 bases for the NL side in this game. Scott's a 2022 fifth round pick - about 2 months younger than Brown Jr. and cost far less to sign. I love that Brown Jr. is shining and confident in his refined stroke, but also detest seeing the Cardinals have an exciting prospect.
  20. Sunday fun in Venezuela and Mexico: CF Jackson Chourio - 2-for-4, walk (singled to left field and third base; now hitting .280) - in Zulia's 5-1 victory over CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 1-for-4 (hitting .288) - in Magallanes 8-2 loss to La Guaira RHP Christian Mejias - 1.2 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 1 BB, 1 HBP, 1 K - earned the Win in Aragua's 10-6 defeat of Lara LHP Jesus Broca - 2.2 IP, 4 R, 3 H, 4 BB, 2 Ks, 1 WP, 1 balk - it was a tough start for the 20-year old in Mexico, wearing the Loss in Guasave's 8-7 defeat to Monterrey Unfortunately, I'm still struggling to find consistent box scores from Puerto Rico. I'll also say that RHP JC Mejia (injured on August 13, 2023; technically still a Brewer, but suspended until late September 2024) is playing for Tigres del Licey in the Dominican Republic. His line from Thursday's 9-5 loss to Cibao: 1 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 0 BB, 2 Ks.
  21. Saturday's Action (Jackson): CF Jackson Chourio - 1-for-4, HR, RBI - temporarily cut the deficit to 3-1, in Zulia's 6-1 defeat to La Guaira CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 2-for-5, RBI - 4th inning RBI single extended Magallanes lead to 3-1 over Anzoategui; Magallanes ultimately won 6-3 Elsewhere, the Puerto Rican league commenced play on Friday, although the opening day box score is difficult to find: C Brian Navarreto (likely a free agent in a few days) Friday: 1-for-4, SF, RBI - added a late insurance run for Carolina in their 4-2 win over Mayaguez Saturday: 0-for-2, HBP, sac bunt - Carolina was one out away from a 1-0 victory, but instead fell 2-1 to Santurce
  22. Home Run Derby Live Stream starts shortly. Go Wes Clarke!!:
  23. Baez didn’t play any shortstop in his final 23 games (including ACL and Low-A playoffs), so I really think that ship has largely sailed. I’m excited to have solid bat-first third basemen at each level: Black (until promotion), Wilken, Adams, Baez. I understand each one will see continued speculation about possible position moves, but such is life.
  24. From Friday’s games in Venezuela: - CF Carlos D. Rodriguez - 0-for-3, 2 walks, caught stealing - in Magallanes 9-6 defeat to La Guaira - RHP Christian Mejias - 1 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 0 BB, 0 Ks - in Aragua’s 2-0 loss to Anzoategui Also, back on Wednesday in the Dominican Republic, LHP Fernando Abad (likely a free agent in a few days) helped Toros del Este win 7-1 over Tigres del Licey - 1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 1 BB, 2 Ks
