  1. MINOR DETAILS: Joining the team today from minor-league camp: RHP Kyle Heckathorn (#73), RHP Jim Hoey (#93), RHP Greg Holle (#97), LHP Zach Kroenke (#71), INF Orlando Arcia (#69), INF Blake Davis (#94), OF Cole Garner (#90), INF Hector Gomez (#92), OF Mitch Haniger (#70), INF Brandon Macias (#91) and OF Rene Tosoni (#28). Hector Gomez is starting at SS today. This game will be on one-day delay from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM Monday on MLB Network. But if anything happens of note, you may want to set your DVR (it's the Dodgers' feed). With an MLB.TV subscription, you can watch live today.
  2. I'll miss Chris Mehring typing "STOSH" in all caps in his various updates. And the moustache. 2012 was Stosh Wawrzasek's 5th year in the system (career stats), and 2nd at Wisconsin (after a tough brief stint to begin at Brevard County), but the Canadian native is only 22, and did post a 1.03 WHIP with the Rattlers last summer. Along with his release, the Brewers let go catcher Emmanuel Quiles (career stats), the 23-year-old former Padres 6th rounder, who spent last year with Helena after five years in the San Diego organization. The Puerto Rico native saw action in his country's winter league this past offseason.
  3. Gameday Lance Roenicke's 9th inning game-tying single must have been a cool moment for dad. Outside of Cole Garner's AB's, nothing to review in terms of minor league camp. We will see some of the youngsters rewarded with big league game appearances this week, based on what they're showing on the back fields.
  4. Saturday after Mike Fiers: ON THE MOUND: Also scheduled to pitch this afternoon (subject to change): LHP Michael Gonzalez, LHP Travis Webb and RHP Donovan Hand. MINOR DETAILS: Joining the team today from minor-league camp: LHP Zack Kroenke (#94), RHP Casey Medlen (#97), OF Cole Garner (#90), OF Lance Roenicke (#92) and INF Nick Shaw (#70). *** By the way, if you're on this forum, you should follow the official Brewers Player Development Twitter Feed, currently with updates from Friday.
  5. Another log from Brad Just rest your pointer on each Brewer farmhand photo, a nice tour Among them: Orlando Arcia Jose Pena Cuban product Rodolfo Fernandez Lots of Victor Roache Brad's tweets At Brewers Reds Low A game. Victor Roache just blasted a home run to left. Michael Reed just missed one, doubling high off the center field wall, but got thrown out trying to stretch it to a triple.
  6. ON THE MOUND: Also scheduled to pitch this afternoon after Chris Narveson (subject to change): LHP Tom Gorzelanny, RHP Alfredo Figaro, RHP Michael Olmsted and RHP Josh Stinson. MINOR DETAILS: Joining the team today from minor-league camp: INF Nick Shaw (#70) and OF Rene Tosoni (#28).
  7. As per Matt Eddy at Baseball America, four releases at the rookie league level: This one seems odd -- you invest a 9th round pick on a Georgia high school outfielder in 2011, and then, as expected, assign him to Maryvale for his first two pro seasons, where the youngster shows an improved .268/.370/.297 stat line in year two, granted with no power showing at all. Malcolm Dowell (stats) was let go, and it's rare the Brewers let their Top Ten round high school picks, especially those who show an ability to get on base, go so quickly. Let's not speculate, although I guess I just implied to... Others let go -- Catcher Deivi Mejia, 23 (stats) -- for fun, I tweeted this last week. Ironic. RHP Yefri Saba (pronounced Jeffrey), 21 (stats) -- coming off his 2nd AZ season after one in the DSL RHP Juan Francisco, 22 (stats) -- Francisco will have this memory - a seven-inning DSL no-hitter, here's the Link Report archive which then points to the unique box score line.
  8. MINOR DETAILS: Joining the team Wednesday from minor-league camp: RHP Chris Jakubauskas (#98), INF Blake Davis (#94), INF Brandon Macias (#71) and OF Rene Tosoni (#28). Macias got an AB, game-ending GIDP. Gameday
  9. That was quick. Corey Brock of MLB.com with a vague answer, but confirming the existance of the mysterious 4th option year: Was told he had a 4th. Unsure of why.
  10. Not that it matters now, but the crazy world of "minor league options" strikes again. Yesterday the Padres optioned RHP Fautino De Los Santos (Kottaras trade, subsequently claimed by the Padres, and also named in the Miami PED controversy). Now, it had been widely reported, even at the time of the Kottaras trade, that 2012 was De Los Santos' last option year. And that seemed very accurate, as Baseball Prospectus shows (bottom of linked page), De Los Santos was added to the A's 40-man roster in November 2009. He spent time in the minor leagues (optioned) in 2010, 2011, and 2012 while maintaining his 40-man roster status (Baseball Cube stats). He never missed a full or near-full season, so he would not have been a candidate to petition for a 4th option year. I've contacted the Padres' MLB.com guy to see if we can learn more, mainly just out of curiosity.
  11. The good walkoffs from 2012 outnumbered the bad, so enjoy the details and video highlights from Chris.
  12. Gameday 25 Brewers played, and besides Schafer and Gorzelanny, none of whom guaranteed Opening Day spots. Yikes...
  13. Upbeat LeBoeuf on road to recovery from cancer Popular Brewers Minor League coach thrilled to be back at the ballpark Nice story, Adam, thanks...
  14. RHP Nick Bucci, 22, who was re-assigned to minor league camp a couple of weeks ago, has been formally optioned to AA Huntsville. It's his first option, he can be bounced back and forth between the minors and majors in 2014 and 2015 as well if need be.
  15. ON THE MOUND behind Mark Rogers: Also scheduled to pitch Tuesday (subject to change): LHP Tom Gorzelanny, RHP Alfredo Figaro, RHP Burke Badenhop and LHP Travis Webb. MINOR DETAILS: Joining the team today from minor-league camp: INF Blake Davis (#94), INF Hector Gomez (#90), OF Lance Roenicke (#96), INF Nick Shaw (#70) and OF Rene Tosoni (#28).
  16. #'s 21-30 released for now
  17. Enjoy Brad Krause's always wonderful and well-documented photo galleries -- his minor league collection from Monday includes the prominent (Clint Coulter) to the obscure (three-year DSL LHP Juan Santiago). Thanks as always, Brad!
  18. WSSP: Ron Roencike Monday pre-game presser (go to the 30:00 minute mark) This dude really wants his catchers back...
  19. Doug Melvin on WTMJ (Friday 3/8) WSSP From Monday 3/11 air date (not necessarily interview date): Doug Melvin Brian Anderson Ron Roenicke Rick Kranitz Aramis Ramirez (go to the 23:30 minute mark)
  20. OF Reggie Keen did indeed sign his retirement papers last week. Link from our 2012 Manatee thread
  21. And because they now each have one option remaining, a reminder that they don't need to be on the 25-man roster to stay until the 2015 season.
