  1. - INF Jose Caballero activated from ACL Brewers’ 7-day injured list
  2. Transactions: SS Daniel Guilarte activated from Low-A Carolina's 7-day injured list OF Hedbert Perez placed on Low-A Carolina's 7-day injured list (broke a bone in his foot while running the bases on Tuesday, as caught by @wiguy94 when listening to the Mudcats' broadcast on Thursday) RHP Thyago Vieira activated from AAA Nashville's 7-day injured list RHP Pedro Fernandez transferred to Development List from AAA Nashville Game Action: Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Nashville 12, Jacksonville 10 Box Score / Game Log Via the Sounds’ website, game details, and we encourage readers to review the affiliate write-up as part of their Link Report routine: Frelick's Explosive Night Powers Sounds Victory Have a day, Sal – 3-for-4, HR, two doubles, walk, 6 RBIs! He homered on the second pitch he faced, a two-run shot to give Nashville an early 2-0 lead Then doubled in two more runs in the 4th inning to grow the advantage to 6-2 And after Jacksonville dribbed and drabbed their way to a six-run seventh inning to cut the Sounds’ lead to 10-8, Frelick brought home two more runs with a 7th inning double to provide essential cushion. And you’ll more video highlights (e.g. of Hiura, Toro, Brian Navarreto & Co.) at the Sounds Twitter feed. Sounds’ Extras: Supported by the offensive outburst, RHP Jason Alexander (6 1/3 IP, 7 R (2 ER), 7 H, 0 BB, 1 HBP, 2 Ks) cruised until the 7th inning, when the team nearly squandered its 10-2 advantage, hurt by two errors and a bunt single before giving way to LHP Darrell Thompson with the bases loaded and two outs and a 10-4 lead. Thompson promptly threw a wild pitch and gave up two doubles to tighten things considerably. Others on Promotion Watch: Abraham Toro – HR, double, walk, HBP, 2 RBIs, fielding error at third base; Keston Hiura - single, 2 HBPs, 2 RBIs; Clayton Andrews – came in to face the final batter, striking him out to earn the save. DH/INF Josh VanMeter got a rare chance to lead off, singling, walking three times and scoring three runs, while unsung Navarreto added a solo homer. On the flip side, INF Patrick Dorrian was given his fourth (and last?) start at shortstop, having a miserable day: 0-for-5 at the plate, 3 errors in the field including one with two outs in the 9th inning. Friday’s outlook: RHP Janson Junk is the scheduled starter, aiming to extend the Sounds’ series lead to 3-1. Biloxi Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Biloxi 9, Montgomery 8 Box Score / Game Log Via the Shuckers’ website, game details: Shuckers Score Four in the Ninth, Come Back and Defeat Biscuits, 9-8 What a back-and-forth affair in the late innings, with the Shuckers winning despite blowing a 5-3 lead in the 8th inning and committing five errors in the game. Left fielder Noah Campbell (3-for-5, HR, double, 3 RBIs) provided the early muscle, then each of 1B Wes Clarke (1-for-4, HR, 2 RBIs), DH/3B Tyler Black (2-for-5, triple, 2 RBIs, 2 SBs), center fielder Jackson Chourio (2-for-5, RBI) and Campbell came through late in Biloxi’s pivotal 8th and 9th innings which produced six runs. You’ll find a lot more highlights of this road game (thank you Biloxi media team) at their Twitter feed. Shuckers’ Extras: This was starting RHP Christian Mejias’ best outing (5 2/3 IP, 2 R (1 ER), 5 H, 2 BB, 2 Ks, 1 WP) since late May, a welcome development for a team which has struggled with starting pitching performance and depth. Bad defense and a rare shaky relief appearance from RHP Ryan Brady (1 1/3 IP, 3 ER, 4 H, 0 BB, 2 Ks) set up for a wild and woolly finish. Four Shuckers committed the five errors, which you’ll see at the box score link, with the real back-breaker being Freddy Zamora’s fielding error with two on and one out while clinging to a 5-3 lead in the bottom of the 8th inning. The Biscuits grabbed four runs that inning, despite only hitting two singles to the outfield. After being part of that 8th inning storm (one single, one walk conceded against seven batters faced), RHP Cam Robinson (2 IP, 3 R (0 ER), 2 H, 1 BB, 1 K) stayed in to earn the save in the 9th inning, but not before additional drama: 2-out triple, error on Ethan Murray (who’d ironically entered as a defensive replacement). Of course, the defense wasn’t all bad, as right fielder Lamar Sparks showed off his cannon: Friday’s outlook: RHP Carlos F. Rodriguez gets the start, with Biloxi also seeking a 3-1 advantage in the series. Wisconsin Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Wisconsin 11, Dayton 2 Box Score / Game Log Via the Rattlers’ website, game details: Rattlers Offense Continues to Click in Dayton This game was never in doubt, with Wisconsin pounding out 14 hits and seizing an 8-1 lead by the 4th inning, as seemingly everybody contributed: 2B Jose Acosta plays with clear joy and confidence, so it was great to have him start the scoring with a 2nd inning, two-run homer to give the Timber Rattlers their first lead at 2-1 Right fielder Je’Von Ward (3-for-5) continued his recent extra-base hit surge, collecting two doubles to give him eight extra-base hits (2 HRs, 6 doubles) in his last six games C Matt Wood (3-for-5) hit his first dinger since his time with the Mudcats in May, capping off Wisconsin’s six-run 4th inning Every spot in the lineup produced at least one hit. Timber Rattlers’ Extras: Starting RHP Alexander Cornielle (4 IP, 2 R (1 ER), 4 H, 4 BB, 4 Ks) was the beneficiary of the offensive explosion, though he still had to battle control issues over four innings of work. 25-year old RHP Nick Merkel (4 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 0 BB, 5 Ks) had a grand time in relief, firing 33 strikes in 46 pitches as he breezed through four scoreless innings, lowering his season Wisconsin ERA to 3.20 and overall season ERA (including Low-A ball) to 3.45, with 60 Ks in 47 innings. With the game a blowout and rains coming in, the game was declared over with one out in the bottom of the 9th inning. Friday’s outlook: RHP Tyler Woessner gets the chance to clinch a series victory, as the Timber Rattlers seek a 4th straight win over Dayton. Carolina Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Carolina 9, Kannapolis 7 Box Score / Game Log Via the Mudcats’ website, game details: Adams Homers as Mudcats Win Third Straight 9-7 Similar to the Biloxi storyline above (but without any errors committed by our squad), this game was a see-saw affair, with the lead changing hands five times over the first six innings before the Mudcats came out on top. Six players had multi-hit games for Carolina and the team needed every one of them, with veteran C Jose Sibrian (2-for-5, 2 RBIs; starting at catcher for the 4th time in 5 days) connecting on what proved to be the game-winning hit, a two-run single with two outs in the bottom of the 6th inning to give the Mudcats an 8-7 advantage. Mudcats’ Extras: 19-year old 3B Luke Adams (2-for-4, 3 RBIs) is in the zone, doubling in the 1st inning, hitting a two-run homer in the 3rd inning to give Carolina its first lead (3-1), then adding a 6th inning sacrifice fly to cut the deficit to 7-6 at the time. Others with multi-hit games: 1B Tayden Hall (two singles, 3 walks), center fielder Luis Lara (double, two singles), right fielder Luis Castillo (2 singles, 2 RBIs). On the mound, starting RHP Patricio Aquino (4 IP, 5 R, 4 H, 3 BB, 1 HBP, 5 Ks) had one of his roughest outings, walking all three batters he faced in the 5th inning, all of whom scored on a 3-run double which gave Kannapolis a 5-4 lead. RHP Alexander Vallecillo also struggled in his first inning of work (2 runs on 3 singles and a walk in the 6th inning), before settling down to pitch two scoreless frames. RHP Yerlin Rodriguez then showed off his 100mph heat in striking out three of four batters faced to earn the save. Friday’s outlook: RHP Will Rudy aims to grab a victory which would give Carolina a 4-0 series advantage. Arizona Complex League Action Final: ACL Brewers 4, ACL Cubs 3 (in 7 innings) Box Score / Game Log Given the many recent high-scoring games and bullpen blow-ups, this 7-run, 8-hit, 1-error (by the Cubs) contest had to be a refreshing game for the coaching staff. And beating the Cubs is always fun! 19-year old LHP Osbriel Mogollon (4 IP, 2 R, 2 H, 0 BB, 7 Ks) and 23-year old LHP Brian Fitzpatrick (3 IP, 1 R, 1 H, 1 BB, 5 Ks) combined to strike out 12 Cubs, while conceding only one walk, with no hit batsmen, wild pitches or balks. As I said, refreshing! 19-year old right fielder Reece Walling (2-for-3, HR, double) seized his opportunity as the leadoff batter, hitting his first home run in the Brewers’ organization in the 1st inning, then adding a double in the 4th inning. SS Juan Baez (RBI single; 1.020 OPS), left fielder Angel Pereira (RBI triple) and 1B Yeison Perez (single) contributed the other three hits. Dominican Summer League Action Continuation Game (from bottom of 3rd inning) Final: DSL Guardians Blue 7, DSL Brewers #2 Squad 6 Box Score / Game Log Down 5-0 before the day started, the Dos young men valiant fought back with a five-run 6th inning to tie the game 6-6. However, they fell by conceding one run in top of the 9th inning, then failing to score despite putting four baserunners aboard (single – caught stealing, 3 walks) in the bottom half of the frame. Starting RHP Bryan Rivera had been roughed up (5 ER in 1 2/3 IP) when the game started three days ago, but 17-year old Luis Guevara followed with his best outing: 4 IP, 1 R (0 ER), 2 H, 1 BB, 6 Ks). Four players had multi-hit games, all of which can be categorized as “usual suspects”: 2B Demetrio Nadal – 3-for-5, RBI SS Filippo Di Turi – 2-for-5, SB C Eric Martinez – 2-for-5, double, 2 RBIs DH/OF Christopher Vasquez – 2-for-3, 2 doubles, walk, 3 RBIs Regularly Scheduled Game Final: DSL Brewers #2 Squad 7, DSL Guardians Blue 2 (in 7 innings) Box Score / Game Log The Dos squad got their revenge in the follow-up game, taking a 2-0 lead in the 4th inning and extending it to 7-0 by the 7th and final inning. The seven runs came despite producing only four hits, helped by six walks and two Guardian errors. SS Demetrio Nadal (1-for-2, HR, walk, 3 RBIs, SB), DH/SS Filippo Di Turi (2-for-4, triple, double, 2 RBIs) and C Freider Rojas (1-for-1, 2 walks) lead the offense. Starting 17-year old RHP Melvin Hernandez (5 IP, 0 R, 4 H, 1 BB, 6 Ks; season ERA 1.80) put together his best game, striking out six and not allowing a run despite two doubles conceded. Final: DSL Braves 3, DSL Brewers #1 Squad 2 Box Score / Game Log Outhit 8-4, this was still a tough loss for the Uno men, conceding two unearned runs in the top of the 9th inning to lose and fall to a 20-12 record on the year. 17-year old starting RHP Eric Prado was once again terrific (4 IP, 1 R, 2 H, 1 BB, 2 Ks), though the earned run actually increased his season ERA to 1.04. 18-year old LHP Jose Meneses (3 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 4 BB, 3 Ks, 1 WP) also tacked on three scoreless innings of relief, despite issuing four walks, lowering his own ERA to 1.82. 22-year old RHP Roman Perez (1 IP, 2 R (0 ER), 3 H, 0 BB, 0 Ks) took the loss, with SS Kevin Ereu committing a key error before the game-tying and game-winning singles. At the plate, 3B Luis Alastre (1-for-2, HR, walk, 2 RBIs) delivered the key production, his first homer as a Brewer coming as a 2-run shot in the 5th inning. C Yannic Walthier also reached based three times on a double and two walks. We hope that you enjoy the Minor League Link Report. Good luck in Friday’s 7-game MILB slate!

  3. Sal Frelick and Luke Adams led a scoring binge across the system, with full season affiliates scoring 41 runs in four victories to push their aggregate season record into black (175-171) for the first time in months. /images-custom/google-analytics/author-tracker.gif Image courtesy of Biloxi Shuckers Transactions: SS Daniel Guilarte activated from Low-A Carolina's 7-day injured list OF Hedbert Perez placed on Low-A Carolina's 7-day injured list (broke a bone in his foot while running the bases on Tuesday, as caught by @wiguy94 when listening to the Mudcats' broadcast on Thursday) RHP Thyago Vieira activated from AAA Nashville's 7-day injured list RHP Pedro Fernandez transferred to Development List from AAA Nashville Game Action: Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Nashville 12, Jacksonville 10 Box Score / Game Log Via the Sounds’ website, game details, and we encourage readers to review the affiliate write-up as part of their Link Report routine: Frelick's Explosive Night Powers Sounds Victory Have a day, Sal – 3-for-4, HR, two doubles, walk, 6 RBIs!

  11. It appears BrewerFanatic verified member @TURBO nailed this rumor yesterday about Jacob Misiorowski potentially getting the call-up to AA. Way to go!!
  12. Signed RHP Wilfredo Cordero and assigned to DSL Brewers-1 The 20-year old Cordero (from the Dominican Republic) spent nearly 26 months in the Rangers' organization (career 14.12 ERA with 43 Ks in 36.1 IP), but was recently released
  13. Jackson Chourio had his fourth straight multi-hit game and TJ Shook earned a solid win for Biloxi. Nashville lost a tough one in extra innings. Wisconsin dropped a shootout and Carolina was nearly no-hit in defeat. Image courtesy of Biloxi Shuckers In their rare 3-game series, Biloxi (2-1) was the sole winner. Wisconsin and Carolina dropped their series 2-1 each, while Nashville was swept 3-0 in Louisville. Transactions: OF/INF Jahmai Jones recalled to MLB Brewers from AAA Nashville LHP Robert Gasser of AAA Nashville activated from suspended list LHP Brandon Knarr transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Harold Chirino transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Miguel Segura transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Kevin Briceno transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Jared Albir transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Domingo Mejia transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list Of the above six injured players, only Knarr (12 IP) and Chirino (14 IP) have actually played this season, while Mejia last played in June 2022. Game Action: Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Louisville 8, Nashville 5 (final in 10 innings) Box Score / Game Log Via the Sounds’ website, game details, and we encourage readers to review the affiliate write-up as part of their Link Report routine: Sounds Swept By Bats With Ten-Inning Loss As much as we love our aspiring minor leaguers, if we have to split a 6-game MLB/AAA series with the Reds, we’ll still take the 3-0 Major League sweep over Cincinnati even if it means Nashville drops a 3-0 sweep at Louisville. The Sounds battled back to tie in the 4th inning and grab leads in each of the 5th and 10th innings, but were unable to secure victory. Each team scored their ghost runner on a sacrifice fly (despite Nashville not collecting a hit or walk in the 10th inning), but the Bats got the 2-out, 3-run homer off LHP Darrell Thompson to win it. Sounds’ Extras: Given his one-pitch HBP outing on July 7, subsequent suspension and the All-Star break, starting LHP Robert Gasser (5 IP, 3 R, 9 H, 1 BB, 8 Ks) hadn’t really played since July 1, but did well to work around two doubles and seven singles to potentially grab a win. 3B Luis Urias (1-for-1, 4 walks) singled and walked four times as he tries to earn a call-up back to MLB. But his teammates only brought him home once, stranding 10 baserunners in the game. C Brian Navarreto arguably contributed more with a solo homer, sacrifice fly and a key pick-off defensively at second base. Navaretto had the Sounds’ sole extra-base hit. Others on Promotion Watch: Abraham Toro: two singles, Sal Frelick: two singles + sac fly + stolen base, Keston Hiura: single + HBP, RHPs Jake Cousins and Peter Strzelecki: one scoreless inning each, rehabbing LHP Justin Wilson – allowed tying solo homer amongst three batters faced. Center fielder Monte Harrison (1-for-4) hadn’t played since June 11, but the exits of Eddy Alvarez (opt-out release), Michael Reed (release), Tyrone Taylor (reinstated to MLB) and Jahmai Jones (recalled to MLB) saw him back in action. Next week’s outlook: The Sounds (48-40) return home to play Marlins’ affiliate Jacksonville (40-49). RHP Justin Jarvis (3.65 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, 10.7 K/9 in 79 IP this year) will make his 2nd start in AAA ball on Tuesday. Biloxi Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Biloxi 7, Rocket City 3 Box Score / Game Log Via the Shuckers’ website, game details: Shuckers Explode for 16 Hits, Seven Runs to Take Series Over Rocket City If you want results, 19-year old center fielder Jackson Chourio (3-for-5, RBI) will give you results: first inning line drive single, third inning line drive RBI single, fourth inning single to left field, extending his multi-hit game streak to four games. But we’re also excited about 25-year old RHP TJ Shook (5 IP, 1 R, 3 H, 1 BB, 4 Ks), delivering his second terrific start in three appearances, of course sandwiched around an 8-run (7 earned), 2 1/3 IP atrocity that we’re blaming on short rest. As the sole home game amongst the group, you’ll have to get all of your video highlights from this Biloxi game, which thankfully was a win. Within, you’ll find a particularly good view of Chourio catching a line drive against the wall in center field to help his starting pitcher out. Shuckers’ Extras: 25-year old utility man Isaac Collins (3-for-4, HR, 3 RBIs, SB) is proving that he’s not just a speedster (17 stolen bases in 21 attempts), as he connected on his fourth home run of 2023, a 3-run shot to give the Shuckers a nice cushion in the 4th inning. He also pulled off a rare double play for a left fielder, catching a line drive and doubling a runner off first base to end the top of the 4th inning. Each of right fielder Noah Campbell, C Wes Clarke, 1B Zavier Warren and SS Ethan Murray had two hits on the evening, with Clarke notching a double and Warren driving in two runs. 3B Tyler Black singled, walked and stole his 42nd base. Let me also make a positive note of RHP Max Lazar’s two scoreless, hitless innings. Ready or not, Shook and James Meeker look like they’re starting pitchers now for Manager Mike Guerrero, in part due to limited other options available. Let’s hope that they continue to make the most of this exciting opportunity. Next week’s outlook: The Shuckers (41-43) hit the road to play Rays’ affiliate Montgomery (43-40). Wisconsin Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Peoria 13, Wisconsin 8 Box Score / Game Log Via the Rattlers’ website, game details: Peoria Outslugs Wisconsin in Series Finale 21-year old starting RHP Edwin Jimenez (3 IP, 7 R, 9 H, 3 BB, 0 Ks, 1 WP) is going through a rough patch, as the hurler hadn’t allowed more than two earned runs in any of his first 12 games (each between 3 and 6 innings), but he’s now allowed three or more in each of his last five contests. However, his teammates nearly picked him up, scoring five unanswered runs to knot the score at 7-7 by the 6th inning, before Peoria poured it on late. Timber Rattlers’ Extras: Solo home runs from 1B Ernesto Martinez (2-for-5, HR, 2 RBIs) and right fielder Je’Von Ward were part of the initial comeback, along with a 2-run double from 3B Ben Metzinger (1-for-3, double, walk, 2 RBIs). SS Robert Moore also reached base three times via a double and two hit-by-pitches. In this one, individual development took priority over wins and losses in my opinion, as Jimenez was sent out for a third inning of work despite struggling to get through the first two frames, allowing seven runners aboard in the first two innings and being bailed out with two ground ball double plays. Predictably, a 3-2 deficit quickly ballooned to 7-2 in that fateful bottom of the 3rd inning, with the first five batters reaching via a double and four singles. To his credit, Jimenez was able to retire the final three batters on fly outs. RHP Nick Merkel (2 2/3 IP, 3 R, 2 H, 4 BB, 2 Ks) took the reins from Jimenez and kept a clean sheet for two innings before a back-breaking 2-out, 3-run homer in the bottom of the 6th inning. Next week’s outlook: Wisconsin (35-47) heads to Dayton (42-42) to play the Reds’ affiliate there. RHP Stiven Cruz (6.39 ERA, 1.61 WHIP, 7.7 K/9 in 62 IP) is the scheduled starter for Tuesday's opener. Carolina Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Myrtle Beach 8, Carolina 0 Box Score / Game Log Via the Mudcats’ website, game details: Carolina Held to One Hit in 8-0 Loss to Pelicans This series finale was a beat-down in all respects, with only two highlights for the Mudcats: RHP Jeferson Figueroa delivered three scoreless, hitless innings of relief to lower his season ERA to 2.45. Left fielder Hedbert Perez singled to lead off the 8th inning, thus avoiding a no-hitter. As to the rest of the game, RHP Will Childers got the start and was only down 2-0 with two outs in the bottom of the 4th inning, before the wheels fell off (wild pitch, single, single, walk). RHP Jose Chavez also didn’t acquit himself well in relief (HBP, balk, 3-run homer) in that 6-run frame. Next week’s outlook: The Mudcats (41-39) host White Sox affiliate Kannapolis (45-38).

  14. In their rare 3-game series, Biloxi (2-1) was the sole winner. Wisconsin and Carolina dropped their series 2-1 each, while Nashville was swept 3-0 in Louisville. Transactions: OF/INF Jahmai Jones recalled to MLB Brewers from AAA Nashville LHP Robert Gasser of AAA Nashville activated from suspended list LHP Brandon Knarr transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Harold Chirino transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Miguel Segura transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Kevin Briceno transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Jared Albir transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list RHP Domingo Mejia transferred to 60-day injured list from 7-day injured list Of the above six injured players, only Knarr (12 IP) and Chirino (14 IP) have actually played this season, while Mejia last played in June 2022. Game Action: Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Louisville 8, Nashville 5 (final in 10 innings) Box Score / Game Log Via the Sounds’ website, game details, and we encourage readers to review the affiliate write-up as part of their Link Report routine: Sounds Swept By Bats With Ten-Inning Loss As much as we love our aspiring minor leaguers, if we have to split a 6-game MLB/AAA series with the Reds, we’ll still take the 3-0 Major League sweep over Cincinnati even if it means Nashville drops a 3-0 sweep at Louisville. The Sounds battled back to tie in the 4th inning and grab leads in each of the 5th and 10th innings, but were unable to secure victory. Each team scored their ghost runner on a sacrifice fly (despite Nashville not collecting a hit or walk in the 10th inning), but the Bats got the 2-out, 3-run homer off LHP Darrell Thompson to win it. Sounds’ Extras: Given his one-pitch HBP outing on July 7, subsequent suspension and the All-Star break, starting LHP Robert Gasser (5 IP, 3 R, 9 H, 1 BB, 8 Ks) hadn’t really played since July 1, but did well to work around two doubles and seven singles to potentially grab a win. 3B Luis Urias (1-for-1, 4 walks) singled and walked four times as he tries to earn a call-up back to MLB. But his teammates only brought him home once, stranding 10 baserunners in the game. C Brian Navarreto arguably contributed more with a solo homer, sacrifice fly and a key pick-off defensively at second base. Navaretto had the Sounds’ sole extra-base hit. Others on Promotion Watch: Abraham Toro: two singles, Sal Frelick: two singles + sac fly + stolen base, Keston Hiura: single + HBP, RHPs Jake Cousins and Peter Strzelecki: one scoreless inning each, rehabbing LHP Justin Wilson – allowed tying solo homer amongst three batters faced. Center fielder Monte Harrison (1-for-4) hadn’t played since June 11, but the exits of Eddy Alvarez (opt-out release), Michael Reed (release), Tyrone Taylor (reinstated to MLB) and Jahmai Jones (recalled to MLB) saw him back in action. Next week’s outlook: The Sounds (48-40) return home to play Marlins’ affiliate Jacksonville (40-49). RHP Justin Jarvis (3.65 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, 10.7 K/9 in 79 IP this year) will make his 2nd start in AAA ball on Tuesday.

  20. Only two Brewers’ affiliates played on Thursday, with INF Gery Holguin and RHP Eric Prado leading a DSL squad to a win. RHP Yorman Galindez was exceptional for the ACL Brewers, though the bullpen imploded in defeat. Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic For those missing baseball (were the Draft and MLB All-Star Game not enough?), don’t worry: there’s a DSL Brewers doubleheader to start the day, then all full season affiliates are back in action on Friday evening, before the ACL Brewers feature late as usual. Transactions: SS Daniel Guilarte sent on rehab assignment to ACL Brewers We also encourage you to follow the post-draft signing of undrafted free agents here. Pitchers, pitchers and more pitchers! Game Action: Arizona Complex League Action Final: ACL Rockies 12, ACL Brewers 6 Box Score / Game Log With that scoreline, you wouldn’t know that the Brewers dominated the game, leading 4-0 in the 1st inning and 6-3 from the 3rd inning until the disastrous 9th inning which dropped the team’s record to 12-13. While prospect watchers may find the rehab outings of SS Daniel Guilarte (0-for-2, HBP) and RHP Ryne Moore (2 IP, 2 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 1 HBP, 0 Ks) to be the biggest news, the real story for most of the game was RHP Yorman Galindez (6 IP, 1 R (0 ER), 4 H, 0 BB, 8 Ks) going six innings strong without allowing an earned run. Relief pitchers, here’s what not to do when trying to protect a 3-run lead in the 9th inning: walk three of the first four batters, drop a pop up, throw three wild pitches. RHPs Edrian Robinson and Anthony Perez weren’t helped out by a teammate’s error and passed ball in the frame either. All combined, the 20-8 Rockies scored nine runs in the final frame. ACL Brewers’ Extras: The team started strong, with 3B/SS Juan Baez (2-for-5, double, 2 RBIs) doubling in two runs and C Satchell Norman (2-for-4, HR, walk, 3 RBIs, SB) smacking a two-run homer. This was Guilarte’s first action in 53 days and he was something of a magnet for the ball early: hit-by-pitch in his first plate appearance, then had three balls hit to him in the second inning (throwing error, fielding error, double play). For Moore, it was his third rehab appearance, growing his workload to eight batters this time. 19-year old 2B Dylan O’Rae (1-for-3, 2 walks, RBI, SB) continues to be an on-base machine, reaching base three times to lift his season OBP to an astounding .495. He’s also 19-for-19 in stolen base attempts through just 19 games played. Dominican Summer League Action Rained Out: DSL Brewers #2 Squad vs. DSL Red Sox Red The teams will make up this contest with a doubleheader on August 1st. Final: DSL Brewers #1 Squad 4, DSL Giants Black 3 Box Score / Game Log 17-year old 1B Gery Holguin (2-for-4, HR, 3 RBIs) carried the offense with a two-run homer in the 1st inning for an early 2-0 lead, then an RBI single to re-take the lead at 4-3 in the 6th inning. In fact, Holguin was at the center of it all, committing an error which allowed in two unearned runs in the 5th inning, then later catching a line drive to end the game with an unassisted double play. 17-year old RHP Eric Prado (3 2/3 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 2 BB, 3 Ks) was terrific once again, this time covering the middle innings, earning the win and dropping his season ERA to 0.82. He also picked off a runner in the 5th inning and was helped out by C Brayan Oropeza throwing out a runner in the 8th inning. However, we’re forced to hold our breaths, as center fielder Yophery Rodriguez exited after 5 1/2 innings and C Luis Garcia was also replaced in the field with two outs in the bottom of the 7th inning. We’ll hope that these were just odd substitutions, not injuries. Rodriguez (2-for-3, double) had doubled and scored the tying run in the top the 6th inning. He’s reached base in 26 of 27 games played, lifting his season OPS to .945. Not to be left out, starting RHP Jose Meneses (4 1/3 IP, 3 R (1 ER), 4 H, 3 BB, 3 Ks, 2 WPs) had a respectable outing and 22-year old RHP Roman Perez locked down the 9th inning for his fourth save of the year. After his return from injury, SS Kevin Ereu has been in a serious rut, but thankfully he broke his 0-for-33 skid (ouch!) with a double in his first plate appearance on Thursday. He had also walked 9 times (vs. 12 strikeouts) during this rough stretch, so the results weren’t all bad. 17-year old Enniel Cortez wasn’t in action, but we do have video thanks to @BrewersPD.
