Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic With playoff hopes dashed in Appleton, but races coming to a head this week for Nashville and Biloxi, we must be on the precipice of the much-anticipated player promotions after Sunday's games, right? Transaction: Wisconsin Timber Rattlers sent RHP Michael Fowler on a rehab assignment to ACL Brewers. Fowler, in his 2nd year as an undrafted sign out of Southern Miss, turns 24 in July. He had been placed on the injured list on May 7th after nine relief appearances with Wisconsin. Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Durham (Rays) 6, Nashville 4 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: Stallings Strikes Out Season High Nine in Nashville Loss - Jones Hits First Home Run of the Season As usual, the summary paints a detailed picture, please be sure to review. As we eventually look back on the 2026 Milwaukee Brewers Championship Season, we'll always have Greg Jones' unique .095/.095/.095 line in 22 plate appearances with the big-league crew. See you at the ring ceremony, Greg! This was Jones' 4th start at second base for Nashville. If you came here hoping for top prospect breakout games, sorry to disappoint. Jett Williams plated a run on a sacrifice fly. Cooper Pratt laid down a successful sacrifice bunt. Jeferson Quero was 0-for-4 as two Durham baserunners stole bases. Unsurprisingly the best we have to offer is Luis Lara pulling a ball 94.5 MPH into right field for a single (no video), as well as drawing a walk, lifting his OBP to a ridiculous .446 (.926 OPS). LHP Mark Manfredi has a sharp 1.17 WHIP in his four relief appearances since his bump to Nashville, along with eight K's over six innings of work. However, he's been scored upon in three of those games, with two HBP's and two walks along the way. It was pretty much a veteran bench who sat this one out - Eddys Leonard, Luis Matos, Freddy Zamora, Ethan Murray and Ramon Rodriguez. Valuable, versatile and solid - RHP Garrett Stallings will be 29 years old this fall when he hits minor league free agency. A former teammate opened the scoring: There are eight "lowlights" (all marked with the date of June 13th) on the Bulls' video page. Memphis (Cardinals) also lost, so the Sounds remain one game back of a playoff spot. I did enjoy learning about Voice of the Sounds Jeff Hem's background in this extended interview. Catch up with the latest Biloxi pre-game audio interview archives - Former Shuckers Manager and current Brewers MiLB Field Coordinator Joe Ayrault is the latest chat Biloxi Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Biloxi 9, Birmingham (White Sox) 3 Box Score and Game Log Late Surge Brings Shuckers within Half Game of First - Shuckers set season-high with 15 hits, score 8 off Barons' bullpen Five of the season-high 15 Biloxi hits were doubles, so naturally the Shuckers' (still awesome) 'X' feed features five singles before a Jacob Hurtubise double made the cut. (Any run-scoring hit tends to be camera-archive friendly.) MLB Pipeline combined all three of Jesús Made's three hits, including a double into one post, thanks! RH starter Bishop Letson's first five innings were scoreless, and Letson deftly (underused adverb, by the way) navigated around a leadoff double in the 3rd, and a one-out double in the 4th. After the Shuckers plated three in the top of the 6th to grab a 4-0 lead, Letson went single-walk-walk-double, forcing his exit. RHP Edwin Jimenez did well to only allow one of the two no-out inherited runners to score in order to maintain the lead and net Letson the official win on his ledger. It's unfair to Letson, but the one piece of video available is his final batter of the evening. Speaking of opposing team video, Matthew Wood, who has caught exclusively while Darrien Miller has been idle since leaving Wednesday's game early (no injured list stint as of yet), was robbed here: In his Friday interview, Manager Mike Guerrero indicated that Dylan O'Rae won't need to go on the IL but that he has been sidelined a bit with an injury he did not disclose. O'Rae pinch-ran here, stealing his 33rd base in 41 tries, so we're guessing it's not a lower-body issue. Blake Burke doubled but fanned his other four times up, lifting his K% to a still manageable but keep-an-eye-on-it 24.6%. Mike Boeve, Eric Brown Jr. (on base four times), and Hurtubise all earn your box score review approvals. The consistent worthwhile efforts and outings of RH reliever Cameron Wagoner since his May 2nd debut have been very much worth our attention (game log). Wisconsin Pre-Game Media Notes (download link) Final: Great Lakes (Dodgers) 3, Wisconsin 1 Box Score and Game Log Via the Timber Rattlers, game details: Rattlers Drop 3-1 Decision to Great Lakes - Wisconsin eliminated from first half playoff contention If not for the Voice of the Rattlers Chris Mehring detailing what could have escalated into a full-blown brawl for us in that linked recap, we may have never known, outside of those in the stands or tuning in live (so thank your Link Report friend here for pointing Chris' write-up out as well). So, there you go, that grabbed your attention, didn't it? Click above, please, because what is described didn't make the video footage (somewhat understandably). This was RH reliever Peyton Niksch's High-A debut, and he performed well. Bullpen mate Yerlin Rodriguez aided Niksch's cause by stranding two baserunners. Jason Woodward has now made 11 appearances (seven starts) since his Tommy John surgery recovery. He's pitched into a 5th inning of work just once, on May 30th, as the organization exercises caution on the 2023 4th rounder. Your box score review will indicate that CF Braylon Payne has had much better days, and the K% now sits at 30.6%, up slightly from 2025's 30.1% with Carolina. Folks watching this series may have noticed that one of MiLB's current female umpires has been on hand. Tanya Millette is a French-Canadian and has the language skills to verify that. Millette found herself in the middle of the episode referred to in the game summary. Let's see, the Timber Rattlers can't win the first half. Biloxi can, with a week to go. Nashville is in their own hunt, as noted above. The big-league club has well-documented needs. The teams have their normal day off Monday. Are bags packed? Are plane tickets bought? Will the Brewers continue to mess with our promotion-monitoring heads? Wilson Pre-Game Media Notes Final, completion of Friday's suspended game: Hill City (Guardians) 4, Wilson 3 Box Score and Game Log Final, regularly scheduled game: Hill City 1, Wilson 0, seven innings as scheduled Box Score and Game Log Warbirds Swept in Saturday Doubleheader - Warbirds Drop Both Contests to Hill City For those of us following the nightly forum thread, my fellow Link Reporter "Ro" succinctly brought us up to date on the Warbirds' night here. For whatever reason, this seems to be strikeout percentage notation night, and Wilson slugger José Anderson has been a prime topic on that subject all season. First of all, let's remember this is Anderson's age 19 season. Anderson fanned in four of his seven at-bats Saturday, increasing his K% to 41.6%. But Anderson also did this in the top of the 8th to tie the game, as the Wilson summary deftly (ha!) noted: José Anderson homers (16) on a fly ball to left field. Luis Lameda scores. Tyler Rodriguez scores. Do you know who wasn't acting deftly Saturday night? MiLB.com's video feed, which normally spoils us. It's showing nothing but a black screen for Anderson's latest blast, his 16th. Every Wilson position player saw action during the course of the night save for outfielder Nick Monile, who last played on Sunday the 7th. 20-year-old undrafted RHP Thomas Conrad has been solid for Wilson, but he was on the mound for the nightcap walkoff home run. Rylan Mills was the designated hitter in the opener (from Friday) and began the nightcap behind the plate. Mills was replaced on defense to begin the bottom of the 5th, and there is nothing in the game log to provide a hint on that exit. As we surmised in yesterday's report, RH starter Carlos Carra did not pitch in the completion opener, as he had gone through all his pre-game routine Friday night. RHP Tyler Renz is credited with a "game started" in his game log, though the box score gives the bulk reliever listing. The 19-year-old Renz only walked one in six innings as he improves in that aspect over his most recent outings. 20-year-old Nicaragua native Enniel Cortez started Game Two and had his best outing of the season. Final: ACL Brewers 7, ACL Royals 4 Box Score and Game Log Hey, they even played nine innings. Back to "Ro" for a moment: "In Friday's 13-9 ACL defeat, Alexander Frias, Juan Martinez and Jonathan Rangel reached base 11 of 12 times, with 6 RBIs. In Saturday's 7-4 victory, they reached base 10 of 14 times, with 4 RBIs." So yeah, that's sweet as each player maintains a four-digit OPS as the team is 32 games into the season. Those figures will make a box score pop. Enhancing Martinez' stellar season-to-date, he's now 19-for-21 in stolen base attempts. Frias added an outfield assist from center. This was only his second career game manning that spot, seeing all his other work on the outfield corners. Is Rangel still just 5'9"? Because the sometimes catcher actually has an offensive game that could support a long-term first base profile (he played there Saturday, but 5'9" is 5'9".) We sang LF Engel Paulino's power praises yesterday, hopefully he didn't get caught up in the press clippings, as his box score line will hint may have been the case. Michael Fowler's rehab outing was scoreless (five batters faced), and yet another Nicaraguan RHP, 18-year-old starter Diustin Mayorquin, remains an intriguing arm. Final: DSL Brewers Blue 14, DSL Brewers Gold 7, seven innings as scheduled Box Score and Game Log The teams combined to issue 17 free passes (16 walks, one HBP, plus five wild pitches and a balk) in just the seven frames, so that won't please the pitching coaches. The three fielding errors were from the recent bonus baby shortstops, as Diego Frontado and Ricki Moneys are up to a combined nine miscues on the season, barely ten games in. Then again, we should know better (shame on me) to spend energy on such things at the complex league level. I'm sure Frontado (home run, single, walk, SB) and Moneys (triple, two singles, five RBI) are thrilled that we highlighted the day's defense. Sorry, gents. The big early lead for Blue prevented Gold from attempting any steals, while Blue runners went 5-for-6. It's difficult to single out am arm on a super-positive effort, but 3rd-year 20-year-old righty Carlos Canales gets a rare mention for his 1-2-3 outing, and RHP Luis Aguayo of Mexico, working his way back from a long-term injury that snatched his 2025 season, tossed a scoreless first inning in his 3rd pro game. Congrats to LH bat OF Gerlyn Payano, DH'ing here, on his first pro home run. Same goes for CF Enrique Lovera, a year younger in age and experience than Payano, on his first career tater. Others on the Blue side of the ledger had productive days, so enjoy your box score click. As for Gold, we're still waiting for first baseman Jefer Lista's six-game bubble to pop, but he walked twice and is still sporting an OPS north of 1.500 (1.549, to be exact). Back to a traditional four-game afternoon starts scoreboard for Sunday, and the rotation openers are juicy as the link below will show. Have a great Sunday, everyone!

Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic We've got you covered in case your minor league attention was distracted by a certain 6'7" righty in Milwaukee. We wish we had more victories to tell you about, but as always, we find positives to spotlight. Transactions: Milwaukee Brewers recalled RHP Craig Yoho from Nashville Sounds (as RHP Coleman Crow hits the big-league IL) SS Leonard Rijo assigned to ACL Brewers from DSL Brewers Blue RHP Lonell Downs assigned to DSL Brewers Blue from DSL Brewers Gold Nashville Pre-Game Media Notes (unavailable) Final: Durham (Rays) 7, Nashville 4 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: Nashville Drops First of Series to Durham There really is no 5th starter on the team at this moment to complete the Stallings - Hardin - Pannone - Wichrowski rotation. Perhaps Jake Woodford is stretched out to that role in time. Easton McGee is not the answer for that spot, he allowed ten baserunners in his three-inning struggle here. Lefty Tate Kuehner is missed, as are Carlos Rodriguez and Coleman Crow on the big-league injured list. From May 26th to June 5th, Jett Williams was hitless in six of eight games. He currently has a five-game hit streak including two hits on Thursday but sat out Friday night. Overall, it's been an uninspiring stretch and an at-best middling .229/.342/.37 line overall (.709 OPS). Cooper Pratt 0-for-4 with a K, flied out twice, topping out at 93.6 MPH on one of those outs. Tyler Black has dropped to a .200 batting average with a .300 slug, and to be honest, has never been more irrelevant in the big picture. In case recent Nashville posts on 'X' have you confused, the admins for the Sounds and Bulls have had a silly thing going mainly because Durham only awards some sort of beef reward to their own players who hit the scoreboard in Durham, but not visitors. It's time to drop the back-and-forth, but that'll explain any odd captioning on this Luke Adams HR, also 93.6 MPH. Adams also doubled in the 5th (only 74.4 MPH off the bat), The prettiest of the Sounds' five base hits may have been this Luis Lara 96.8 MPH single poked the other way from the LH batter's box. We'll give props to RH relievers Kaleb Bowman and Junior Fernandez for the six innings of one-run ball they provided. Catch up with the latest Biloxi pre-game audio interview archives - RHP Jack Seppings, recently up from Wisconsin, is the latest chat Biloxi Pre-Game Media Notes Final: Birmingham (White Sox) 3, Biloxi 2 Box Score and Game Log Hurtubise Has Multi-RBI Game in Shuckers 3-2 Setback - Shuckers Walked Off by Barons for Third Straight Loss The Southern League standings show a well-balanced eight-team quagmire of mostly mediocrity, but the Shuckers have now lost three in a row to the one league outlier - the Birmingham Barons are still only 24-37 after their three wins over Biloxi. Fortunately for Biloxi, division frontrunner Montgomery has also lost three in a row. Barons first baseman Anthony DePino is on a tear, you'll see him victimize an otherwise strong Jaron DeBerry and then Travis Smith for the walk off in the two videos linked here. DePino had clubbed a three-run homer in Thursday's 8-0 Biloxi loss. 28-year-old OF Jacob Hurtubise pretty much made it a one-on-one tennis match with DePino, including clutchness in the top of the 9th. Take away the DeBerry DePino deposit (see what I did there?) and Jaron would have pitched six shutout frames. DeBerry's game log shows five of his last six starts as very attractive. Jesús Made singled in four trips (described as a sharp line drive to left), though his 11 June games have been sub-par to his standards. Made avoided striking out, something his lineup mates (save for Hurtubise) did not do, 14 K's altogether. Wisconsin Pre-Game Media Notes (download link) Final, Game One: Wisconsin 5, Great Lakes (Dodgers) 3, seven innings as scheduled Box Score and Game Log Via the Timber Rattlers, game details: Fischer Does It Again! - Rattlers slugger hits twentieth homer of the season to beat Great Lakes Enjoy Chris Mehring's write-up linked just above and the two home run videos within. Then settle in and watch the long balls a second time as part of the overall game package here: You'll notice no Luis Pena here (nor in the nightcap). Pena exited Tuesday's game early, limping after legging out a strike out on a wild pitch. Not the sharpest final line for 6'5" 19-year-old (yes, 19 years old all season at High-A) RH starter Ethan Dorchies, but he looks the part on the mound and seemingly there were encouraging aspects of this outing, though three walks, a HBP and a wild pitch will be found within the stat totals. This was the best of RHP Tanner Perry's three relief appearances since his promotion from Wilson. Now for a score copy-and-paste with a bit of unfortunate reversal - Final, Game Two: Great Lakes 5, Wisconsin 3, seven innings as scheduled Box Score and Game Log Via the Timber Rattlers, game details: Great Lakes Gains Split with 5-3 Victory over Wisconsin - Rattlers suffer costly loss in first half playoff race Before you watch this next set of highlights, you are strongly encouraged to read the linked game summary for details on why the T-Rats were the road team here, the bleak playoff picture and much more. "Ever so softly" - yes, that was the call on the key base hit vs. reliever Ayendy Bravo as he attempted to rescue starting southpaw Wande Torres from a bases-loaded situation. Bravo's a 19-year-old who was jumped to Wisconsin, bypassing Wilson, in an extreme need for the T-Rats back on May 17th. Torres, meanwhile, remains exceedingly frustrating, as he issued eight free passes (six walks, two HBP's). Pena provides a right-handed bat, and it's missed. We've seen on several occasions this season where a left-handed reliever is lined up with a very LH-leaning Wisconsin lineup - speaking in general terms, the Rattler outfield mix (Adamczewski, Ragsdale, Payne, Castillo, plus the corner infield of Bitonti and Fischer). You likely noticed that late in the highlight package for Game Two. Former Brewers draft pick LHP Justin Chambers (sent to the Dodgers for LHP Bryan Hudson before he ever saw action for the Crew) pitched for Great Lakes, the second time he has faced Wisconsin this season. Suspended, bottom of the first inning: Wilson 0, Hill City (Guardians) 0 Box Score and Game Log (thus far) Unlike the Howlers, Wilson did not "waste" a starting pitcher with a brief outing. RHP Carlos Carra did not throw an official pitch, but surely went through his pre-game routine, and we'll have to see if he throws as scheduled in Saturday's resumed game, or perhaps the nightcap. Shortstop Brady Ebel was among the players scheduled to have Friday night off. Via the Warbirds: LYNCHBURG, V.A. – The Wilson Warbirds and Hill City Howlers game on Friday night at City Stadium was suspended due to rain and will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Saturday beginning at 3:30 p.m. (2:30 Central) The first game of the doubleheader will be picked up in the bottom of the first inning and will be a 9-inning contest while the second game of the twin bill will follow approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of game one and will be a 7-inning game. Final: ACL Angels 13, ACL Brewers 9, seven innings as scheduled Box Score and Game Log We'll dive deeper in a moment, but your keys: Behold the #4 and #5 spots in that box score for Maryvale, wow. In the #6 spot, Jonathan Rangel singled, walked, and reached via HBP. We'd love to see Rangel find a home with his glove, but the 19-year-old has now split eight errors evenly between catcher (Friday night) and first base. Perhaps there isn't a better example in several years of a player benefitting more from repeating the Dominican Summer League than infielder Juan Martinez, as his MiLB Player Page yearly stat lines will show. His 2024 $125,000 signing bonus could prove quite the bargain. Speaking of bonus bargains, hello to the $350,000 Alexander Frias received in January of 2025. As trade deadline season nears, we don't see Frias going anywhere, but other organizations would be wise to ask for a bonus add-on prospect like Martinez on any proposed deals. 18-year-old Dominican native Leonard Rijo made his stateside debut, drawing a walk and stealing a base (Rijo was 21-for-24 in SB attempts in 2025). In a combined 98 DSL/ACL games the prior two seasons OF Engel Paulino hit two home runs. He clubbed his 4th here (105.8 MPH) in 51 at-bats though other aspects of his game have dropped in 2026 and he's seeing action in only about 60% of the team's games. Undrafted RHP Caleb Nieman has been hit-or-miss in his seven appearances, this was a miss and a matter of getting work in as scheduled. RHP Hayden Vucinovich with small steps of improvement, two scoreless frames that included two walks, two wild pitches and a hit batter, one unearned run allowed. Hey, you don't learn how to pitch around men on base unless, you guessed it, there's men on base. In his four starts, this was the first time RHP Luke Roupe (2025 17th round pick out of a North Carolina high school) completed two innings. His pro debut was complicated and delayed a bit by an unspecified injury. The Brewers K'd 15 times in the seven-inning game, which had a first-pitch temperature of 100 degrees. Final: DSL Padres Gold 9, DSL Brewers Gold 6 Box Score and Game Log Game was tied at 5-5 through seven innings, but the golden San Diego players four-run 8th trumped the golden Milwaukee men and their one-run 9th. That 9th inning run came off the bat of Ricki Moneys, his lone hit in five at-bats, but it was a line drive pulled out of the yard. Moneys was the DH here, and his small-sample 6-for-38 isn't exquisite, but four of the six knocks have gone for extra bases, and he has walked (six) nearly as often as he's K'd (eight) and remains 4-for-4 in SB attempts. Speaking of going deep, infielder Osiris Ramirez, only five weeks removed from his 17th birthday, went deep for the 4th time in just 31 at-bats, well, hello there. Pipeline wrote this on January 15th: "Another standout in the Amateur Scouting League, much like Moneys, was Dominican shortstop Osiris Ramirez. Although he will reportedly fetch just a $100,000 signing bonus from Milwaukee, there’s a ton of power coiled up in his right-handed swing, and he moves well laterally on the infield. His defensive home is a bit more of a question mark, but it’s the offensive profile that will earn his keep." We've seen subsequent reports that Ramirez' final bonus figure was actually $450,000. Either way, the initial power reports are proving conclusive. First baseman Matthew Moses' six-game sample is well, just six games, but he reached four times here (two singles, two walks) to lift his OPS to 1.108. First-year OF Manny De Los Santos turned 17 in March. In 28 plate appearances, he has walked ten times and stolen nine bases in ten tries. Baseball America indicated De Los Santos signed for a $325,000 bonus, with reports highlighting "his standout contact abilities, along with his strong baseball IQ and plus speed". Despite three wild pitches, no batter put a ball in the air vs. suddenly exciting 2nd year southpaw Santiago Martinez, who will turn 18 in July. Of course, when batters are striking out eight times in four one-run innings, any ball in play is a story. Behold Santiago's game log for his two appearances thus far on the young season. Exciting! Suspended, bottom of the 5th inning: DSL Red Sox Red 3, DSL Brewers Blue 3, scheduled for seven innings Box Score and Game Log (thus far) Game at the Brewers complex was delayed by 40 minutes. Where's the roof? This game will be completed on Monday, June 22nd as part of a doubleheader. In just his 2nd pro appearance, 17-year-old Venezuelan native RHP Daniel Munoz dazzled. In four innings, the only three men to reach base against him were via free passes (two walks, one HBP). Munoz struck out seven. Also making just his second ever appearance, 6'5 lefty Alexander Mercedes' outing to start the 5th was limited to just two batters - walk, balk, home run, then exit. Unless weather was complicating things, something to monitor? It's not like there's a three-batter rule at the complex level (we don't think). Infielder Leander Matos, again playing third base here, doubled in each of his at-bats. He is 16 years old until July 2nd, and yes, the small sample on another mid-level bonus signing ($300,000) is very shiny in the box score line. Premium bonus baby Diego Frontado walked both times up thus far, giving him ten in 41 plate appearances. See you on the 22nd. We'll be reporting on six scheduled games when our next Link Report is out Sunday AM, including a matchup of Brewers' DSL clubs, 6-2 Blue at 3-6 Gold. The game in Arizona has the usual Saturday daytime start time despite the sun and heat, allowing folks to get to the rest of their weekend off. In late afternoon and then evening action, Wilson will play two games as referenced above. Hope it's a wonderful Saturday for all!

That didn’t take long

It’s almost disappointing that Seppings doesn’t have a strong British accent (WBC Great Britain).

It took me several minutes to recognize the never-before-seen reference to Josh Adamczewski.

Not really. The Maryvale team is literally carrying only two bench position players as of this AM. All the more reason to avoid whatever paperwork this was about and get Rijo active for tonight.

Don’t forget Jack!
