Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic Transactions: RHP Josh Knoth sent on rehab assignment to ACL Brewers RHP J.B. Bukauskas sent on rehab assignment to ACL Brewers RHP Jhosep Ospino promoted to ACL Brewers from DSL Brewers Blue RHP Josue Toledo promoted to ACL Brewers from DSL Brewers Blue RHP Sean Episcope placed on ACL Brewers' 7-day injured list Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Norfolk (Orioles) 5, Nashville 2 Box Score and Game Log Via the Sounds, game details, and we encourage readers to always review affiliate write-ups as part of their Link Report routine: Lara Adds Another Homer in Sounds Loss - Nashville Strands 10 and Goes 0-for-10 with RISP For the affiliate broadcasters, it's pretty cool when they can provide the voice on a highlight clip that gains traction among those in the broader MLB community, including concerned Brewers fans, not to mention fantasy team owners. Surely Jeff Hem would have preferred if this clip hadn't been spotlighted overnight. Curt, along with others, subsequently passed along news from the Brewers that Chourio was removed from the game for precautionary reasons. Now we wait. Milwaukee's other key rehabber, Andrew Vaughn, played the full game at first base, but finished 0-for-5, grounding into two double plays, one with the bases-loaded and nobody out in the 9th, representing the tying run. The first of his twin-killings, in the 5th, was his hardest-hit ball of the night at 100.3 MPH. Jeferson Quero added to the GIDP non-party with two men on to end the 6th. I'm aware you just read the always-awesome Sounds recap linked above, but allow me to copy again the following: "Outfielder Luis Lara went yard for the sixth time this season as it came in the bottom of the first inning, hitting off the right field foul pole for the 1-0 lead. Lara leads all Sounds hitters, passing Eddys Leonard (5), while he's tied for 10th in the International League. The 21-year-old leads the team in home runs (6), hits (39), and stolen bases (12). Lara continues to lead the International League in hits and runs (30) and ranks ninth in AVG." We certainly hope that Chourio is fine. But if he'll be out for any additional extended period, the choice is pretty clear. Although right-handed bat and capable-at-best OF/INF Eddys Leonard and his 1.002 OPS would be interesting (and again was productive Saturday, 3-for-4), Leonard is also out of minor league options, so the organization would have to commit to his placement at the big-league level for some time. Put another way, in a worst-case Chourio scenario (hopefully doesn't come to that), the 21-year-old switch-hitting Lara and his exquisite defense makes sense as the option. The Sounds need to figure out how to cope with the early-evening sun angle's effects on that center-field camera. As for Jeff Hem's call, Norfolk pitcher Cam Weston's immediate exit after just seven pitches may have to do with his possible need at the big-league level for Baltimore, but that is pending. A melted snow-cone extends Brock Wilken's on-base streak: Biloxi Pre-Game Media Notes Final, Game One: Pensacola (Marlins) 7, Biloxi 4 Box Score and Game Log Final, Game Two: Pensacola 6, Biloxi 3 Box Score and Game Log NOTE: Both games in Pensacola were seven-inning contests. Shuckers Drop Both Games of Doubleheader Against Blue Wahoos Picking up on the topics that doubleheader summary touched on - Please refresh yourselves with the MLB Trade Rumors write-up on the Brewers acquiring OF Damon Keith from the Dodgers on March 27th. Pretty random, right, and surprisingly worthy of an MLBTR notation. It'd be pretty sweet to spend a moment with members of the front office as to what prompted this acquisition - and believe me, I've done comparisons to what other organizations have posted as their own "ivory tower" rosters. The Brewers sheer numbers in Baseball Operations, Player Development, Performance Development and Scouting are way above the norm. So, whatever came together to work the Keith acquisition out, regardless of a real need for bodies in the grass at the AA level at the time, involved what metrics, what backroom discussion, that led to the target of the soon-to-be 26-year-old. Outside of a nine-day injured list stint, Keith's 68 plate appearances to date (yes, still a small sample) have led to a ridiculous .379/.471/.724 line (1.195 OPS). Also from Game One, enjoy the Mike Boeve and Darrien Miller home runs. While at it, note the waterfront backdrops in Pensacola, among the prettiest in MiLB. Game Two was rather non-descript outside of an exciting return to action for 24-year-old (25 in June) RHP Cameron Wagoner, the 2022 11th round pick out of Eastern Michigan who made 24 appearances for the Timber Rattlers (22 starts) in 2023 but had been sidelined since. No formal injury had been noted in the two years since outside of elbow issues, so make your own conclusions there. Perhaps an upcoming pre-game interview will help shed light. Welcome back and with flair, Cameron! Rare does twelve pitches make for such attention - Jesus Made did not strike out on the night, but finished 0-for-7, he was the DH in Game Two. Dylan O'Rae's on-base streak ended at 24 when he failed to reach in the nightcap. Blake Burke was 0-for-5 with a walk, and I'm guessing he'd trade some of his 10 stolen bases (in 11 attempts) for a few less errors, now at five total. One reason Wagoner's mound work gathered attention is because the other four arms who saw action on Saturday didn't post impressive lines, as your double box score reviews revealed. All Shucker position players saw action with the exception of 3rd (and primarily bullpen) catcher Edgardo Ordonez, who only has one at-bat thus far on the season. Wisconsin Pre-Game Media Notes (download link) Final: Wisconsin 2, Quad Cities (Royals) 1 Box Score and Game Log Via the Timber Rattlers, game details: Wisconsin Beats Bandits 2-1 for Second Straight Win - Thompson and Smith hold Quad Cities in check while Ragsdale provides the offense The BrewerFanatic Link Report authors really should allocate a significant portion of our exorbitant salaries to the Rattlers media staff. For home games in particular, fans just need to game summary read - video review watch - podcast listen. RHP Travis Smith, the Kentucky native and University of Kentucky product (15th round, 2024) starred on a day that his state gets plenty of attention. Welcome to pro ball, 2025 2nd rounder J.D. Thompson (if you hadn't already figured it out, Spencer Michaelis is a good social media follow) Thank goodness for Josiah Ragsdale's bat Saturday, things were quiet from the top of the order otherwise. Wilson Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Wilson 10, Salem (Red Sox) 0 Box Score and Game Log Pitching Paces Warbirds in Saturday Victory - Wilson Limits Salem to two hits Whoa, who are these Warbirds? That's a 21-2 run differential the past two nights. On Friday, there was a very un-Wilsonlike four XBH's. There were another four on Saturday, including two Jadyn Fielder doubles. Here's the second one, and oh yeah, that's a scorebug on the Wilson broadcast! Looks nice, but we need the men-on-base indicator (I'm so picky, sorry). Minus Friday night's amazing bat flip - Brady Ebel singled, walked and had a sacrifice fly as he continues to warm up, Ebel also now 6-for-6 in SB attempts. Nice games for Pedro Ibarguen and Yannic Walther, joining Fielder within the lower third of the order. The Wilson game summaries aren't as beefy as their cousins in the upper levels, but the team did well to spotlight pitching within their title and subtitle, linked above. Joining J.D. Thompson on debut duty - Let your box score review properly credit the three relievers who followed for six innings of scoreless two-hit ball (four BB, one HBP, nine K's). Final: ACL Brewers 12, ACL Padres 1 Box Score and Game Log Earlier on Saturday on our daily forum thread, we posted: Here's your up-to-the-minute Maryvale roster, including who's on rehab assignments, IL lists, etc. For these early season games, we'll focus specifically on those names in the box score only. My Link Report compatriot "Ro" conveniently posted this, also pre-game: The lineup features professional debuts for 18-year-old 2B CJ Hughes (2025 11th round pick) and 19-year-old C Rylan Mills (2025 18th round pick). Rehabbing RHP Josh Knoth will see his first official action since August 2024. 1 - Cristopher Acosta (18) - SS - stateside debut 2 - Brailyn Antunez (18) - CF - stateside debut 3 - Kenny Fenelon (18) - LF - stateside debut 4 - Alexander Frias (18) - RF - stateside debut 5 - Jonathan Rangel (19) - DH - stateside debut 6 - CJ Hughes (18) - 2B - professional debut 7 - Rylan Mills (19) - C - professional debut 8 - Juan Martinez (19) - 3B - stateside debut 9 - Roderick Flores (19) - 1B X - Josh Knoth (20) - P The nine in the lineup played the full game. 4th-year utility man Roderick Flores, in his return Maryvale season, tripled and scored two runs, playing first base in this one. It's rare to see players pigeon-holed as first basemen below the High-A level, so expect to see several players get their turns at the cold corner. The other eight in the lineup other than Flores all reached base not just once, but at least twice. Plus, it was the two 2025 draft picks spotlighted in bold above who surpassed even that high bar. Catcher Rylan Mills tripled, doubled, walked twice, and drove in four. Switch-hitting CJ Hughes, who will be just 18 years old all season, played second base, and joined Flores and Mills on the triple brigade, singled twice, walked, and stole a base. Talk about pro debuts for Mills and Hughes, wow, on base four times each with pop! From @Spencer Michaelis' 2025 "Day Two" Draft Recap article: Round 11: SS CJ Hughes, Junipero Serra HS (CA) The Brewers made CJ Hughes their 11th-round selection, beginning a run of prep picks in the rounds that formerly made up day three of the draft. Hughes is a shortstop with the makings of potentially being a plus defender in the bigs someday. His actions and his feel for the game at short are very strong for his age, and his athleticism is on full display on the infield dirt. His arm is strong enough to handle short, as well. Offensively, he's a switch-hitter with really good bat-to-ball ability from both sides and a twitchy swing, to complement a strong approach. He has shown flashes of power from the left side, but very little from the right. He will need to add good weight to his frame over time to get to some extra-base power, while also maintaining his plus speed and athleticism. This will certainly be an overslot bonus for the 17-year-old, but the odds of signing Hughes away from his UC Santa Barbara commitment would seem to be high, as the Brewers don't tend to use 11th-round picks on players they don't expect to sign. Round 18: Rylan Mills, Oran HS (MO) A potential sleeper selection for the Brewers in the 18th round, Mills is a catcher from a small school in Missouri. He is committed to Southeast Missouri State. Mills has posted exit velocities of up to 110 MPH, and shown bat speed of up to 83 MPH using Blast sensors. There is tremendous pop in the bat, and he showed it with his 1.794 OPS, and 1.145 slugging percentage in high school his senior year. He had 39 hits, 23 of which were the extra base variety. 10 of those were home runs. Defensively, he looks a little slow on the trigger to make throws, but has a strong arm. Cleaning up the footwork and the exchange a bit could lead to consistent pop times under two seconds. The commitment to a smaller school would seem to make it more likely that he will be one of the players to sign from this group of 11-20 selections. The mound work here was equally impressive, with 2023 33rd overall pick post-Tommy John RHP Josh Knoth getting four of his five outs on strikeouts (reminder, we won't see pitch counts at the complex league levels). Also, welcome back rehabbing J.B. Bukauskas, awarded the victory, depriving some youngster from the "W", shame on the official scorer. 2025 Mudcat RHP Jayden Dubanewicz fanned three in two frames, working his way back from an undisclosed ailment. RHP Dariel Jaquez made his stateside debut after missing all of 2025. RHP Diustin Mayorquin, the Nicaragua native who is another who will be just 18 all season, was the other arm who made his stateside debut. Weather: 88 degrees, Sunny. Wind: 11 mph, In from CF. First pitch: 11:01 AM. T: 3:30. Venue: Peoria Stadium Complex (SD). Yeah baby, the kids are back (along with our expanded Link Report duties!). For those keeping track at home, that's J.D. Thompson and J.B. Bukauskas (with the punctuation) and CJ Hughes (without). It's the wild west across sports when it comes to initials. The Maryvale kids take their usual Sunday off. Elsewhere, the Shuckers and Bishop Letson get the early evening spotlight (no getaway gametime in Pensacola) with the other clubs enjoying traditional afternoon first pitches while at home. Enjoy (and be OK, Jackson Chourio!).

Pretty easy to entice you to click on that summary link, why? Apparently, the Tides' pitchers were magnetized as the first two of the four video highlights within will prove The paragraph in the notes section on Luis Lara (who authored one of those base knocks off the pitcher) is particularly impressive Oh yeah, Jett Williams is preparing for a big-league liftoff There's little doubt at this point that Jacob Waguespack is going to make his way to the big-league Brewers bullpen before 2026 ends, and perhaps in short order Even with four videos tucked into the team write-up, there's more to share: Eddys Leonard line drive RBI single to center gets the boys on the board - .982 OPS, was the DH here Relievers don't get dedicated videos very often, so kudos, Kaleb Bowman - Now for the primary story of the game - Quinn Priester laid this first-inning pitch on a platter: Following inning, same batter, hanging curve from Priester for an RBI single Another off-speed pitch left up punished - If you haven't completed your Priester box score line yet, it was 2 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 2 BB, 1 K, 1 HR, 1 WP, 62 pitches, 37 strikes - and this is why pitching rehab assignments are allowed to max out at 30 days. Priester's began on April 22nd, there's plenty of room for additional Nashville outings. This isn't the first time OF Jordyn Adams has been hit by a pitch this season (it's his third plunking), and yet I can't keep my brain from automatically floating to his surname partner Luke during each box score visit. Luke Adams was previously retroactively placed on the 7-day IL to April 15th, yet an apparent hand injury still has him sidelined. I've always contended that "on-base" streaks aren't worthy of all the attention the affiliates place on them - don't get me wrong, they are better than "not-on-base" streaks, but once a player reaches the 20-game mark and beyond, then the mentions are much more tolerable. Hello, Mr. Wilken. The MiLB scoreboard shows TBD as Saturday's starter, but the media notes indicate it'll be RHP Garrett Stallings pitching for only the 2nd time since April 16th, and that one outing was not pretty. Stallings will be on six days' rest. His role is supremely important to plug in as necessary given all the arm-shuffling to the big-league roster. Postponed, Biloxi at Pensacola (Marlins), rain The teams play twice on Saturday, beginning at 4:05 Central. RHP's Manuel Rodriguez and Brett Wichrowski are the scheduled starters. Catch up with the latest Biloxi pre-game audio interview archives Plus, even though these notes ended up getting soggy, you can still read your way through multiple updates: Just a guess, but it's unlikely any other organization fan site makes sure the fanbase has regular access to the media notes as we do here.

The backstory bonus in this game was the bulk relief outing by Braylon Owens, Via Sportrac: "Milwaukee Brewers 2025 10th-round pick (No. 305 overall) Braylon Owens signed for a $10,000 bonus. The RHP from the University of Texas-San Antonio was an underslot senior sign, allowing the team to save money from his $189,000 slot value for other draft picks." 6 IP, 2 H, 1 R (1 HR), 3 BB, 11 K Owens' last two outings: 11 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 5 BB, 17 K This side note caught our box score eye - Error: Dickinson (8, throw) 2025 6th rounder Daniel Dickinson in 68 games played last spring at LSU - four errors. For Wisconsin, Dickinson has started 11 games at shortstop, eight at second base, and has committed four miscues at each. Going to chalk it up as an odd anomaly at this point. Tayden Hall's BABIP during his super-frustrating 2025 season was an insane .204. This year it's .304, which still falls below his 2022-2024 marks.

Transaction: RHP Easton McGee recalled to MLB Brewers from AAA Nashville Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Norfolk (Orioles) 6, Nashville 5 Box Score and Game Log Via the Sounds, game details, and we encourage readers to always review affiliate write-ups as part of their Link Report routine: Late Game Rally Falls Short for Sounds in 6-5 Loss to Tides - Wilken Extends On-Base Streak Yet Again to 20 Games No Jackson Chourio, no Andrew Vaughn, and seemingly a planned day off with a return to action on Saturday for each. Pretty easy to entice you to click on that summary link, why? Apparently, the Tides' pitchers were magnetized as the first two of the four video highlights within will prove The paragraph in the notes section on Luis Lara (who authored one of those base knocks off the pitcher) is particularly impressive Oh yeah, Jett Williams is preparing for a big-league liftoff There's little doubt at this point that Jacob Waguespack is going to make his way to the big-league Brewers bullpen before 2026 ends, and perhaps in short order Even with four videos tucked into the team write-up, there's more to share: Eddys Leonard line drive RBI single to center gets the boys on the board - .982 OPS, was the DH here Relievers don't get dedicated videos very often, so kudos, Kaleb Bowman - Now for the primary story of the game - Quinn Priester laid this first-inning pitch on a platter: Following inning, same batter, hanging curve from Priester for an RBI single Another off-speed pitch left up punished - If you haven't completed your Priester box score line yet, it was 2 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 2 BB, 1 K, 1 HR, 1 WP, 62 pitches, 37 strikes - and this is why pitching rehab assignments are allowed to max out at 30 days.

MLB Pipeline Newsletter Notes: Luis Lara/Braylon Payne, OF, Brewers (No. 11, No. 13): Lara and Payne are both speedy outfielders in the Milwaukee system, and that’s about where the similarities end. Standing at 5-foot-7, Lara was more of a high-floor, low-ceiling type entering this season with his plus-plus defense and a severe lack of power. The 6-foot-2 Payne had a higher ceiling with 70-grade speed and loud contact, but his 30.1 percent strikeout rate at Single-A last season brought some concerns that the bottom could fall out of his profile if he never made adequate contact. The story for both early in 2026 has been significant jumps in slugging output. Lara’s five homers in 26 games for Triple-A Nashville are already a career high. His general contact still isn’t truly loud with a 90th-percentile exit velocity of 102.3 mph and a 54.3 percent groundball rate, but he is making tons of contact on pitches inside the zone. Adding a modest amount of strength and becoming even just a 10-12-homer threat as a switch hitter is huge for his outlook as a potential everyday player who provides more than the glove. Payne, on the other hand, already has a 115 mph homer that trumps any Brewers dinger in the Major Leagues for exit velo since Avisaíl Garcia’s 116.7 mph shot on Sept. 12, 2021, but we knew impressive high-end EVs were in the tank. His six homers -- only two fewer than his 2025 total in 63 fewer games -- and .796 slugging percentage have come because he’s putting that loud contact in the air more; his groundball rate has fallen from 50.3 percent in ‘25 to 38.2 percent in ‘26. The contact issues are still worthy of further study, as he’ll leak out early in his swing and become vulnerable to sliders, but the power-speed combo is entering rare territory.

Your 2026 Complex League (Maryvale / DSL) Brewers
Jim Goulart replied to Ro Mueller's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
No sound and player identifications are limited, but just the fact there's a score bug and velocity readings for this pre-season game is impressive. Gives hope for future "broadcasts" from complex leagues in future years. -

This is one of those situations where we wouldn't be hiding anything from everyone if there had been. Actually, we're not really "hiders" at all. So, answer is no at this time.
