  1. Sounds lost the tie and are trailing 4-2 late. RHP Edwin Jimenez finds himself in trouble early at Beloit. 1-0 Sky Carp and they have the bases juiced with only one down here early.
  2. How about a first inning Ernesto Martinez grand salami to get things going in the 6th and closing game at Tennessee?!?
  3. The Mudcats lost their 1-0 lead when they conceded a 2-spot in the top of the 5th. Trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the 6th, they put up a 5-spot of their own! They lead 6-2 in the top of the 7th. The big hits were a Sibrian two-bagger, a Baez sac fly, and a two out Nicasia three-bagger.
  4. I guess, given Donaldson's historically woeful BABIP, one strategy is don't swing.
  5. One of the more fascinating storylines in a Brewers Minor League renaissance: Who is going to Arizona? The only player, at this juncture, I feel very confident in is INF Eric Brown Jr. - given his injuries in 2023 and his late-season return etc it's a logical choice. He needs more continued and consistent PT as he has flashed tremendous signs in 2023 when healthy. Beyond that? Sheeesh, there are a lot interesting candidates. And, I am essentially at a place of waiting and seeing while I scratch my beard. 😂
  6. I have to say I certainly did not expect these Shuckers to go into Kodak, TN and pull ahead to a 5-0 series lead heading into Sunday. Clutch is the word I would use. Absolutely CLUTCH.
  7. Middendorf gave up a two-out solo shot and then worked around a walk and single by getting the punch out. 6-3 Shuckers into the top of the 9th. Shuckers likely need to win this to stay tied with Montgomery. The Biscuits lead the woeful Barrons 4-2 in the 7th. Let's go out ahead and state the blatantly obvious: The season-ending six-game homestand vs the co-leading Biscuits is large. Hopefully it is the Shuckers drenching the Biscuits in some homestand victory gravy!
  8. The name is Megill. The deal is done.
  9. Also, of note, we haven't seen Mike Boeve play since his rough 3-4 game stretch (mentioned it in my report earlier this week but he was making lots of weak contact and topping balls and had a fairly bad error behind 2B). If I'm not mistaken he's been on the bench now for three straight? Hopefully he's working on his craft and isn't sidelined with an unreported injury.
  10. Wisconsin added another run in the 8th frame off a Matt Wood single to CF. They lead 5-1. And, in Quad Cities the Chiefs just grabbed two runs back from the River Bandits. 7-6 QC as they are near completion of the 6th frame. IF the River Bandits can finally steal one the T-Rats would pull within 3.0 G. Tall ask but doable.
  11. HUGE win by the Mudcats! They push their second half Division lead to 3.0 G over Lynchburg and 3.5 G over Fredericksburg. They take a 3-2 series lead. This 'could' be the series tune-up and test before they potentially face these same Wood Ducks in the post-season. 7 regular season games remain!
  12. Thanks for all these updates, gents. Love reading through and getting up to speed.
  13. - RHP J.B. Bukauskas was optioned to the Nashville Sounds by the Milwaukee Brewers - 3B Josh Donaldson was activated by the Nashville Sounds - RHP Colin Rea was recalled by the Milwaukee Brewers from the Nashville Sounds - LHP Aaron Ashby was sent to High-A Wisconsin to begin a rehab stint
  14. Wisconsin would seem to have a legitimate shot if they were chasing anyone but Peoria. Those pesky Chiefs have been on one this entire second half and it certainly doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon. What really drives this home, for me at least, is the T-Rats close with a six-game series at Home vs the juggernaut that is Cedar Rapids. Peoria closes at home vs these same Beloit Sky Carp the T-Rats are currently handing it to on a nightly basis. It would seem like the T-Rats would have needed to pick up a couple games these past nights to really make the last week interesting. Nashville, well, there's just too many teams in their way. Last night's loss was a big big one. They needed that game. Anything, in theory, could happen here, but as you allude to: doesn't seem likely.
  15. - LHP Clayton Andrews was recalled by the Milwaukee Brewers from the Nashville Sounds - INF/OF Owen Miller was recalled by the Milwaukee Brewers from the Nashville Sounds
  16. Take a look at Tony's video from above - a bit too large for embedding it (I downloaded it). Looked like a beautiful night at the Smokies stadium. Gorgeous sunset happening throughout that skyline...Chourio quiets an already quiet and sparsely attended stadium 😁 . Thanks for sharing!
  17. Well, Shucks (guffaw), congrats again RHP Max Lazar. You tied history the inning before on another filthy pitch:
  18. Hey now! Another Shuckers record broken in 2023. Congrats to RHP Max Lazar for playing this part in the Shuckers lore:
  19. I believe the Shuckers bullpen has done some sort of magic trick to grab the Mudcats previous mojo and take it for their own in their playoff push. The Shuckers Pen has been really good in this crucial road series at Tennessee. I just pray to the baseball gods this keeps up.
  20. Ugh. Costello has really fallen apart in the last few weeks. That's a tough pill to swallow. He was very good until this recent tailspin.
  21. Adams looks at a heater up and dead center. 0-1. He swings and fouls back a dead center heater. 0-2. He fouls a heater on the outer half to the 1B side seats. Still 0-2. He hacks away another upper corner outer half heater. And Adams grounds out weakly to SS stumbling out of the box. 2-2 and we head to Xtras. Man, that was a golden opportunity. They couldn't put any meaningful wood on those heaters.
  22. Hall takes pitch one low and inside. 1-0. He takes a big cut at a high heater and swings and misses. 1-1. He takes another monster hack at a heater high and inside and whiffs. 1-2. He lays off another heater high and inside. 2-2. He fouls one straight back. Inside heater inside and at the knees. He fought it off. He lays off a very high breaking ball. It's 3-2 again. He swings and misses at a heater roped on the inner upper corner. Great pitch. It's up to Luke Adams now. Two down.
  23. A groundout to 1B by O'Rae (after working the count full from an 0-2 count - nearly his second 0-2 walk of the day) sends pinch runner, Gregory Barrios, to 3B. Diaz had shallow flared a single to CF. Pinch run for. Barrios advanced on a balk. Let's get a sac fly from Tayden Hall!
  24. Roriguez's recent struggles represent the ongoing dilemma manager Victor Estevez faces. Why did he stick with Herrera? He was only at 54 pitches before he walked the bases full and has been better of late. AND, well, the bullpen is on shaky shaky skates. You just don't know what you're getting.
