  1. RHP Justin Jarvis lost his perfect game and no-hit bid here in the fifth on a walk and a seeing eye single to RF. With one down and runners on the corners, he says: "None shall pass!" Proceeds to rip off his 6th and 7th K of the evening. What a debut!
  2. Nothing like a missed strike call on one screen (a gorgeous high corner curve from Jarvis) followed by a blown out call at 3B on a gorgeous OF assist from Micah Bello in RF. He threw an absolute one bounce laser that beat the runner by a good 2-3'. Garcia held on brilliantly. Nah. Not today. Woooof.
  3. INF Eric Brown Jr. is indeed in the starting line-up manning SS and he is in the lead-off slot. FWIW.
  4. 1B Ernesto Martinez rips his second long ball of the season - a two run shot - and OF Je'Von Ward ripped a two-run double. It's 5-0 T-Rats early and they are still at the dish in the bottom of the 3rd frame. RHP Tyler Woessner has looked quite sharp.
  5. He took a K looking on a nice heater on the outer stripe in his second AB. This is the Level he needs to work on next. He looks great in the field. His comfort and flow and consistency will come. Nothing has changed by my eyes. If anything, he looks like he added some muscle in the off-season - which is a good thing.
  6. And that's strikeout number four in rapid fashion. That's now 11 up and 11 down for Jarvis who likes incredibly sharp in his 2023 debut. He is ripping the ball and on fire getting to the next pitch. This is as entertaining as it gets. Excuse me, that's another K. He strikes out the side in the 4th. Through 4 IP: 32 PITCHES with now 5 K. This is the Justin Jarvis we've seen from time-to-time and boy is it nice to see in Double-A!
  7. Scary moment here for Tyler Black as he runs full speed toward a foul line down the third base line and it looked like he lost sight of the railing and ran full bore into it. He looked shaken up. The trainer and Mike Guerrero both came out to see him and, it would appear, he's staying in the game. RHP Justin Jarvis fires a pitch shortly thereafter on the inside corner grabbing his 3rd K.
  8. Yeah, I know it's one outing but we definitely have something in RHP Aidan Maldonado. Not only does he have some 'stuff' but he knows how to pitch. This was a very fun outing to watch. Just fantastic work all around the dish. He saw a weakness from a batter in a single pitch and then exploited it the very next one. Highly impressive stuff for a Low-A debut.
  9. RHP Justin Jarvis has gone 9-up and 9-down on 22 pitches through 3 IP. I can tell you: this is the fastest pitcher I have seen in the Brewers system in 2023 with the widespread play clocks. He gets the ball and slings it in what seems like five seconds. Quite fun to watch.
  10. INF Ethan Murray follows suit (after the Quero K) on a smooth swinging line drive to right field sending Lutz across home plate and it's 2-0 Shuckers here in the bottom of the second inning.
  11. Little bit of baseball pinball action scored Warren from 2B. On a Lutz infield line drive that short-hopped the charging Wahoos 2B (Devers) sees the ball ricochet to the deep SS dirt. Devers throws it wildly over the 3B head to the dugout and Warren scores sliding under the throw then high and over the Catcher's mitt. Lutz advances to 2B. Quero at the dish.
  12. Zavier Warren just extended huis early season hitting streak to 3 games with a smooth swinging line drive single to right field in his switch hitting lefty stance. The young man continues to impress from, well, the summer of 2022. You love to see it. He proceeds to steal second and the Shuckers are no 8-for-8 in SB attempts while the Wahoos have allowed 13 runners to advance.
  13. I've gone back to watch Vallecillo's 2 IP. This young man has solid stuff out there. Really nice breaking ball mix. Has some tailing movement on his change-up to lefties. Really good tools to work with - definitely impressed with his first outing.
  14. So far in this extremely early part of the Low-A season, if I were a pitcher I would target Avina and Fernandez with off-speed stuff low and outside the zone. Both young outfielders have routinely struck out or swung at these pitches. Both have 2 K tonight and each of their last strikeouts were on sliders in the dirt. Pitch recognition and plate discipline such a challenge for young players. Hopefully, they can improve this part of their respective offensive games.
  15. RHP Aidan Maldonado was hoping for Carolina's first 1-2-3 inning but he joined the walk train. But, he closes with a K and generally looked fantastic. He hit 95-96 mph on the radar gun and had signs of a tantalizing change-up and dangerous breaking ball when it could find the zone. Heck of a Low-A debut.
  16. Well, Vallecillo certainly did his part with a fine 2 IP: 2 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 4 K. Unfortunately, Olguin and Brustoski each offered 3 free passes.
  17. Well, the good thing about Brustoski's outing was he started finding the zone after it nearly fell apart. He gets out of the frame with 3 BB, 1 HBP, and 2 ER. It could have been much worse. Let's hope he can build from here. It would appear Salem has 7 runs so far on only 4 hits. Ah, yes, a Low-A opener.
  18. And, we're at 2 BB, and a HBP. And the bases are juiced with none down. Pitching coach Michael O'Neil is headed to the mound to try and calm this flamethrower down. He has to find the zone. So far, the 'Year of Command' has lost its bearings.
  19. Oh no, this looks all too familiar after a really good ST. Brustoski goes 4-pitch walk. Then on a 1-1 count throws a curve ball that completely loses its plane and plunks the batter on the back. It's a walk, and a HBP. Then a ball 1.
  20. It would appear Olguin came on in the 3rd frame, walked the bases loaded, and gave up a grand slam. Hence, the 5-1 deficit.
  21. Andddddd, we're at five consecutive balls to start his inaugural outing. Let's go Jakob. Get your stuff.
  22. Ohhhhhh it's my first look at LHP Jakob Brustoski and his self-proclaimed 'Year of Command' in 2023. Let's get it, Jakob! Here's hoping he finds that good stuff we've previously seen in small spurts.
  23. Well, I somehow forgot it was an EST listed start to this one not CST. AND, it's 5-1 Salem here in the 3rd innings. Doesn't look like Vallecillo got that inaugural start he was looking for.
  24. Just a little OF Esteury Ruiz update: He is in the daily line-up for the Athletics. He typically is batting 9th in the batting order (tho, he does have a lead-off appearance or two). Currently, in 32 AB Ruiz is hitting: 0.219 BA, 0.637 OPS, 3R, 3 2B, 3 RBI, 3 BB, 2 HBP, 5 K, 1 SB, 2 CS.
  25. I'll check in on the Nashville broadcast Tuesday to see if we can learn anything about the nature of Herb's injury. Nothing as of yet. Hopefully, the 7-Day is an actual 7-Day and this isn't a lengthy or nagging injury beyond this time frame.
