A reminder that the new park in Pensacola is one of four that broadcasts Southern League games, so this is a chance for MiLB.TV subscribers to check out Hiram Burgos and the Stars.

It's fantastic that Huntsville is returning to what will be a traditional broadcast format this year. All games, home and away, are scheduled to be broadcast. MiLB.TV subsciption note: Huntsville road games in four locales (Mississippi, Tennessee, Jacksonville and Pensacola) will be broadcast. ********** Brevard County: LHP Jed Bradley at home vs. Daytona (Cubs), 5:35 PM gametime Free Live Audio Link -- Select the Daytona feed from the MiLB main audio page Once again this season, Brevard does not have its own audio coverage. It appears two teams in the Manatees North Division (within which the majority of games are played) have audio, and all six teams in the South Division have audio (at least for their home games), so there will be opportunities to listen to approx. 70% or Brevard's games this season, just all from the opponent's perspective. There are no Florida State League games on MiLB.TV this year. ********** Wisconsin: Idle ********** Helena: RHP Leonard Lorenzo at home vs. Ogden (Dodgers), 7:50 PM pre-game, 8:05 gametime Free Live Audio Link -- Select the Helena feed from the MiLB main audio page We're lucky to have Steve Wendt back on board for another H-Crew season. ********** Arizona Rookie (Maryvale): at the mini-Mariners' complex in Peoria; 9:00 PM gametime; never audio for games in this league ********** DSL Brewers: at home vs. the DSL Braves, 9:30 AM, although game data won't be available until late afternoon at the earliest

With the exception of Shawn Zarraga, who has been on the DL with an undisclosed injury since May 26th, and Jose Pena, who has been discussed but not necessarily featured because of the lack of Maryvale coverage, all the players you have mentioned have had feature articles, audio interviews, and/or online Q&A's posted and linked on our forum pages within the past 4-6 weeks. While it may be more difficult to review other reader's comments within older individual Link Reports, certainly the individual team feature threads would have value for you if you're trying to play catch-up.

Wisconsin Video Highlights

Turay drives in deciding run in Brewers' 5-4 win over Raptors by Curt Synness, Helena Independent Record If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Fortunately for Helena Brewers closer Connor Whalen, he succeeded on his first retry of recording the game’s final out Monday at Kindrick Legion Field. With the Brewers leading the Ogden Raptors 5-2 heading into the top of the ninth, Whalen was inserted into the game in relief of Damien Magnifico. The Raptors managed to load the bases, but with two outs, Whalen worked a 1-and-2 count on Eric Smith — one strike away from the win. But Smith proceeded to lace a two-run single to right field, closing the gap to 5-4, with the tying run on third. Next up was Ogden’s Devin Shines, who Whalen was able to get ahead in the count 1-2, again one strike from victory. Only this time he closed the deal, fanning Shines on a called third strike to end the game. But the key to the win, according to manager Jeff Isom, took place the inning before on Michael Turay’s run-scoring single. “When we were ahead 4-2, we kept talkin’ in the dugout that we needed another run,” related Isom. “So then in the eighth Mike Turay got that clutch RBI single, and sure enough it turned out to be the difference.” Turay’s game-winner scored Raul Mondesi Jr. from third, after the right fielder had gotten aboard after a groundball and a two-base throwing error. Ogden took an early 2-0 lead in the opening inning, with the Brewers coming back to tie it up in the fourth. Then in the fifth, Helena third baseman Andres Martinez broke the deadlock with a monster solo home run that cleared the 45-foot netting in left field. “That was a well-struck ball,” Isom grinned. “Andres has some power; if he can put the ball in play, it has a chance to go out.” The hosts ended up scoring another marker in the fifth stanza for a two-run advantage, before Turay’s decider — and his second hit of the game — in the eighth. Smith paced the Raptors offense, with two hits and two RBIs. Helena used four pitchers; starter Ryan Gibbard, Michael White, Magnifico and Whalen. White earned his second win and Whalen picked up his sixth save, tying him with Grand Junction’s Scott Oberg for the Pioneer League lead. Gibbard went four innings, allowing four hits and two runs while striking out three. Jake Hermsen took the loss for Ogden. Several plays that didn’t show up in the box score for the Brewers were a pair of web gems by second baseman Chris McFarland and a long running catch in the left-center gap by centerfielder Michael Reed. The teams meet again today at Kindrick Legion at 7:05 PM (8:05 Central).

Prospect Video 2012 | Taylor Jungmann, RHP Milwaukee Brewers It's pitch-by-pitch video (with gun readings) from a May 6th start (it took two months to edit? - thanks regardless)

Audio from New Orleans — “Mondays with Mike (Guerrero)” Jeff Hem's note -- Here is this week’s installment of “Mondays with Mike” with Sounds manager Mike Guerrero. Among the topics he discusses: the Sounds’ great pitching and defense lately and this season, the team’s continued struggle to score runs consistently, whether or not he considers right-hander Mark Rogers the most improved player on the Sounds this year, the job that catcher Dayton Buller has done lately and whether or not he feels the Sounds are holding up as the team has passed the 100-game mark for the year.

Congratulations to the Southern League Player of the Week -- Kentrail Davis, Huntsville (.450/.522/.950, 6 G, 9-for-20, 1 2B, 3 3B, 1 HR, 3 RBI, 6 R, 3 BB, 5 K, 1 SB, 2 CS) Davis' bat has warmed up as the season has gone along -- he's hitting .329/.397/.614 in 20 July games, with three of his four homers and four of his six triples coming this month. After going 3-for-3 with a longball and a pair of triples in the opening game of Tuesday's doubleheader against Birmingham, the 24-year-old outfielder reached base in each of his six games this week. A first-round pick in 2009, Davis is putting together a strong second half of 2012 after a disappointing 2011 campaign for Brevard County in the Florida State League.

Recently released RHP Roque Mercedes' name could be seen as French -- he signs with Quebec of the independent Can-Am League
