I’m pretty confident that Chourio will improve on his 0 for 5 platinum sombrero performance on Opening Day

This is certainly sad for Black - I hope he heals quickly & quietly has a good year once he returns in Nashville Prior to this injury, Black had lost considerable favor with Brewers fans (& likely) management as well He was “not his best” in 2025 Spring Training - this injury may allow for a “mental” reset Here’s hoping he gets back on track & lives up to his top prospect status If he struggles upon his return, a “change of scenery” may be best for all

Could Eddys Leonard be an option for depth in Nashville? He’s been a good minor league player for several seasons. Not sure if his defense is up to Milwaukee’s standards but he is a solid offensive player. Tigers Release Eddys Leonard By Mark Polishuk | March 29, 2025 at 7:53am CDT The Tigers released Eddys Leonard from the Triple-A Toledo roster, according to the infielder/outfielder’s MLB.com profile page. Leonard has spent the parts of the last two seasons in Detroit’s organization and re-signed a new minor league deal last December after being non-tendered and removed from the club’s 40-man roster. A veteran of six minor league seasons in the Dodgers’ and Tigers’ farm systems, Leonard has yet to crack the big leagues during his pro career. His chances at a call-up in 2024 might’ve been marred by injuries, as an oblique strain and a hamstring strain limited Leonard to only 82 total games (67 in Toledo, and 15 on the Tigers’ A-level teams as part of rehab assignments). When Leonard did play, he hit .263/.326/.455 with 10 homers over 282 plate appearances at the Triple-A level. This performance came on the heels of a .302/.374/.530 slash line in 171 PA with Toledo in 2023, so Leonard may have increasingly little to prove in the upper minors. However, he hit poorly in Spring Training this year, perhaps costing himself a prime opportunity to break camp with a Tigers team was looking to fill some roster holes due to injury. The 24-year-old Leonard will now return to the open market, looking to land with a team in need of some versatile depth. Shortstop is Leonard’s primary position, but he has also seen a lot of time at second and third base and in center field, plus a handful of games in the other two outfield positions. In 2024, Leonard stuck almost exclusively to infield work, which may have been related to his injury concerns rather than a distinct shift towards becoming an infield-only player.

Canha to Royals & Hicklen to Tigers for $$$

Thank you! I just realized that I can attend two Biloxi Shuckers games in early May (@ Pensacola) while on vacation in Orange Beach AL. The stadium is only 26 miles from my condo.

Where can I find rosters for the Brewers affiliates - especially Nashville since they begin their season tomorrow?

Cardinals may be the only NL Central team to win their opener Marlins just walked off the Pirates

Williams may not be available on Saturday after 36 pitches today

It would be glorious to stage a late 9th inning rally against Devin Williams in his first game as Yankees closer

I hate that we have a day OFF tomorrow … unless we rally & win today

Not his best game … good to get a stinker out of the way early

Time for Frelick to use some of his new muscle & plant one over the short fence in RF

It may depend on if the player bats RH or LH … like the Northwestern Mutual Insurance ads

I don’t recall many games last year where Chourio K’d three times He looked washed … I assume he will be returned to Nashville on the day off tomorrow
