Official, via Warbirds Press Release: OF Alexander Frias transferred from ACL Brewers to Wilson The Warbirds roster now sits at 30 active (the max) + 2 Injured List + 1 Development List

The most recent update was on June 2nd: "LHP Frank Cairone will begin throwing live to hitters starting next week and is expected to make his professional debut towards the end of the month." *** We're not quite at the end of the month yet, but it's approaching. Of course, we shouldn't mark June 30th as a hard target. Here's hoping...

Here's the Spotify link for those who prefer that medium.

How real is Maryvale's position player shorthandedness? Very. On Monday, their only available bench player was C/1B Eric Martinez, who had just made his way down from Nashville, where he essentially served as the bullpen catcher. Outfielder Kenny Fenelon was listed as available, but last played on Tuesday the 16th, a game he left early. The other listed player was Alexander Frias, on his way to Wilson.

If one of those "high" ankle sprains, a more significant rehab process. Of course, we don't have the definitive word. Though I've never seen someone suffer an Achilles tear without going to the ground, so in a way, that was promising at the time.

Even if it’s a significant sprain, that’s better than what it appeared for Akil Baddoo

@Jason Wang and @Jake McKibbin of the BrewerFanatic staff returned with their Sunday pod.

Starting 20-year old LHP Joey Broughton followed up his scoreless Tuesday start with a solid first inning here (3 Ks, 2 singles, 0 runs), but exited immediately after that frame. Hopefully it was a planned short outing, but we’ll have to watch his status. Checked out the archive, Enderson Mercado was warming during the first inning, and was not given unlimited warmups to start the 10th, seemingly indicating that it was a planned one-inning outing for Broughton.

Sunday 6/21: Latest Milwaukee Tailgate Podcast (Recorded Sunday AM): - "Steve Garczynski and BrewerFanatic's Spencer Michaelis joined Ryan Topp to discuss the last week of Brewers baseball, including some frustratingly close losses to the Braves, good luck and bad luck and, of course, just a little bit of World Cup action in the Big Apple. Caveat Emptor: There were some intermittent issues with Ryan's hotel internet which caused some brief pauses in the recording. While these have been cleaned up, there are a few 5-10 second snippets of Ryan talking about things that are now lost to the mists of time. Please just assume it was something profound and the loss to society incalculable." *** Postgame shows for the 9-4 win in Atlanta: AUDIO option via Curt Hogg's "Brewer Territory" with Corey Knebel and J.P. Feyereisen: "What's next for the rotation with Brandon Woodruff back? The crew breaks down the series loss in Atlanta and what to do with the rotation now." Via the Journal Sentinel Podcast: "Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss a solid (but somewhat frustrating) 3-3 week, including the arrival of shortstop Cooper Pratt, taking Luis Rengifo's place on the roster. How'd he do in his first week of MLB baseball? They check in on a few top players (Christian Yelich, Brice Turang, William Contreras, Aaron Ashby) and discuss whether there is any reason to worry about their recent results. Quinn Priester is officially out for the year; how big of a loss is that for the Brewers? Robert Gasser was good again; Brandon Woodruff should be back this week and is Brandon Sproat a reliever? Plus, are we sure the Brewers are actually an excellent defensive team? In Three Up Three Down (40:45), we may have a new future third base candidate and a manager on the mend. In Remembrew When (57:00), JR looks back at another glove-first shortstop making a high-profile debut two decades ago. In Curt Blanche (1:02:45), perhaps an early trade-deadline prescription? Then, JR chats with first-base coach Spencer Allen (1:11:30) and game-preparation specialist Evan Martin (1:18:45), two coaches who play a big role in the Brewers success in 2026, even if you're not all that familiar with their roles. Allen was a pioneering head coach in the Big Ten before he joined the Brewers, and Martin walked away from a Division I baseball scholarship to become a full-time team employee.

Yet the young man can't drink legally in the states until August 8th. Perspective.

From Friday's Link Report - this is why we note such things, wish it weren't so: "Still just 17 years old, Venezuelan LHP Santiago Martinez now has a 19-to-3 K-to-BB mark through three appearances. After pitching five, then four, innings in his first two outings, he was lifted with two outs in the 3rd here, immediately after retiring two batters, the last on a strikeout. Hopefully the young man is OK."

Organizational Scoreboard Audio Links MiLB TV (Subscribers) *** Sunday's Birthdays: Happy 25th to Biloxi RHP Cameron Wagoner, having earned a new lease on his baseball journey equipped with triple-digit heat. On the big-league side, we wish Grant Anderson a fine 29th!

No need for them to "re-sign" (no decision to be made by the players), the Brewers maintain their rights regardless for several seasons.

Remember it as you wish. We have forum moderators here for a reason, and while there were conflicting opinions (I was certainly a fan of Smith's, among other folks), the polarizing viewpoints from both sides of the aisle, so to speak, led to awkward moments, will agree on that.

Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic Don't let giant offensive outputs overshadow strong mound work for Nashville and Wisconsin. Wilson's consistent ability to walk off its opponents is unreal. Transactions: Nashville Sounds placed RHP Brett Wichrowski on the 7-day injured list. Wisconsin Timber Rattlers activated C Marco Dinges. No word on the nature or severity of Wichrowski's injury. The 23-year-old has made three starts since his promotion from Biloxi. Dinges comes off the suspended list after serving time for his part in a dust-up last week. Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes (unavailable) Final: Nashville 17, Memphis (Cardinals) 3 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: Baddoo Ignites Sounds Offense in 14-Run Monstrous Win - Baddoo sets career-high with 7-RBI night; Tyson Hardin earns fourth Triple-A quality start Click here to review a report regarding a serious Akil Baddoo injury in the 8th inning A true shame for Baddoo, as the game summary so clearly details just how productive the 27-year-old veteran has been. It's easy to get caught up in the football score and all the crooked numbers in the box you'll devour, but 24-year-old RHP Tyson Hardin deserves his proper due. We just published our annual Rule 5 projection analysis on Saturday, and you'll note that Hardin is not among the players mentioned. The Brewers don't have to add Hardin to the 40-man roster this calendar year and could preserve that 40-man spot through the offseason. However, if Hardin continues to post quality starts (game log here, focus on the seven AAA spots) and the front office believes he can contribute to a playoff push, he'll get the spot early. Amid all the offense, Luis Lara didn't get a chance to pad his numbers, day off. Jett Williams also sat this one out, though that may have been more of a reset. Speaking of the Rule 5, Luke Adams doubled, singled, and walked four times, pushing his OBP to .421, nearly matching his professional career OBP of .423. I've been dismissive of Tyler Black as of late, but he finished a double shy of a cycle, added a walk, and stole his 9th base, yet to be caught stealing in 2026. You saw four videos in the linked game summary above; other clips are available: Black's home run leading off the game Jeferson Quero homered immediately after the Baddoo injury exit Brock Wilken's third hit was an RBI single, and was the lone damage Nashville did vs. a position player Nashville at least has a chance to play big-time spoiler on Sunday. The loss for Memphis places the Redbirds on the brink of elimination heading into the first half finale. The Redbirds must defeat Nashville and Rochester must lose to Toledo for the Redbirds to win the International League first half championship. Go Sounds! Shuckers, Clingstones Postponed Due to Unplayable Field Conditions Resumption of Friday’s game two moved to Sunday as doubleheader, Saturday's regularly scheduled game canceled I kicked off our daily forum thread as follows, alluding to Brock Wilken's unfortunate injured knee during the 2025 clubhouse first-half celebration: If Shuckers Clinch, Nobody Slip in the Clubhouse Celebration, Please The canceled game essentially handed the Shuckers a reduction of one for their magic number, which is now down to one. As for the weather, the Biloxi pre-game media notes indicated; HITTING FOR THE CYCLE (THE WATER CYCLE): Over the last 5 days, the Biloxi/Gulfport/Ocean Springs area has received 14.7” of rain, including 3.7” on Friday night... The average amount for the area for the month of June is 4.2” ... Since May 1, the area has received 29.7” of rain, over 3 times the average rainfall for the two-month span... June 2026, has been the rainiest month on record (15.9”) since June 2017, when the area received 25.8” of rain. So, it's not as though this is a yearly issue, 2026 is a big and annoying outlier in baseball terms. For those in the area truly impacted, it's a serious situation. Wisconsin Pre-Game Media Notes (download link) Final: Wisconsin 14, Quad Cities (Royals) 1 Box Score and Game Log Via the Timber Rattlers, game details: Wisconsin Blitzes Bandits - Rattlers pound sixteen hits in 14-1 win over Quad Cities The T-Rats now have a 26-3 positive run differential two games into the second half standings. Hope you enjoyed the six videos included in the linked game summary. The only video from the team's Saturday 'X' feed not included there was this one, and I'm a sucker for that river view in Davenport, Iowa: Even with all that video, you can watch even more with these four RBI plays off the bats of Andrick Nava, Luiyin Alastre, Josiah Ragsdale and Luis Castillo. All that offense, and Braylon Payne had the night off. It is remarkable the parallels this game had to Nashville's own rout. Please gorge yourself on a breakfast feast of crooked numbers in the Wisconsin box. But like Tyson Hardin at AAA, we have to shine a spotlight on 20-year-old RHP Jayden Dubanewicz, another late-round heist, this one from the 2024 draft (16th round out of a Florida high school). In his two Wisconsin starts since a deserved promotion from Wilson, Dubanewicz has walked none while striking out eleven.

There are no direct social media video posts to link to, but MiLB provides: Well, we have to go to the final play first, as the Walkoff Warbirds are just insane. Old friend Tom Haudricourt would say this is the eleventy-ninth walkoff of the Wilson season. It's close to that figure! From earlier in the game: Handelfry Encarnacion ropes an RBI double Luis Lameda sacrifice fly Filippo Di Turi RBI fielder's choice Kevin Garcia's pop-up sacrifice fly to tie the game Catcher Yannic Walther sat this one out, but you can hear him discuss his German upbringing within our dedicated Warbirds thread. Brady Ebel had a sacrifice fly and walked three times, our Spencer Michaelis' latest feature profile: It wasn't teenage RH starter Carlos Carra's best outing, but it was solid enough. 2025 9th round RHP Andrew Healy out of Duke is starting to stack effective outings. Final: ACL Brewers 4, ACL White Sox 1, seven innings as scheduled Box Score and Game Log We didn't get Statcast data in Glendale for this one, so we can't tell you how hard RF Alexander Frias' two singles were hit, though they were listed as a fly ball to center and a ground ball to center. This was the first scoreless appearance of 19-year-old Bryan Regalado's career. He was a surprise stateside bump after only appearing in two DSL games in 2025. Regalado walked three and hit a batter here but didn't allow a hit and fanned four over his four innings of work. Very effective in a different way was 18-year-old Diustin Mayorquin, who did not walk a batter and limited the damage to one run while scattering six hits. Mayorquin gave up a home run in the final frame before closing things out. Final: DSL Brewers Blue 7, DSL Brewers Gold 4, seven innings as scheduled Box Score and Game Log Blue improves to 10-4, Gold falls to 4-11. Game was scoreless through four innings as Gold RHP Raymond Sarmiento tossed four frames of hitless ball (two walks). Fellow 18-year-old Blue RHP Alejandro Bustamante walked four in three innings but likewise kept his camp complex mates off the board. All heck broke out in the 5th when 17-year-old 6'3" RHP Adrian Bello entered to make his 3rd pro appearance for Gold. Bello retired only one of the eight batters he faced as Blue took a 7-0 lead. (3.46 makes for a decent ERA, but not a WHIP, and Bello's figure represents the latter.) Not only did Gold batters earn 11 walks in the loss, but they were spread among all nine men in the lineup, that's a rarity. So, it's not as though Blue pitching coaches were pleased despite the win. Talk about a vulture, Blue 17-year-old RHP Jesus Vasquez has earned the win in each of his first three professional appearances despite his own 9.53 ERA and 2.82 WHIP. Five errors combined (four by Gold), so as the coaches seek cleaner efforts, this one fell short in that regard. Summer is officially here, everyone, enjoy the five scheduled games on tap, including a hopeful two completed contests in Biloxi wrapped around a first-half title.
