Renfroe / Bradley Jr. trade: David Hamilton optioned by the Red Sox to AAA, first taste of MLB was difficult - 4-for-29 (two doubles), 5 BB, 10 K, 2-for-3 in SB - .138/.265/.207 (.472 small sample OPS). Same trade: Corner INF Alex Binelas with a suitable .749 OPS at AA - 2021 3rd round pick, #86 overall.

Will be incorporated into Saturday AM's Link Report:Final: DSL Rockies 5, DSL Brewers #2 Squad 3, ten inningsBox Score / Game LogTeam Dos lead 3-0 after seven, then 3-1 after eight. The first two Rockies batters were retired in the 9th - just one more out needed! Infield single to the pitcher, sigh. Walk, and then two line drive singles, tie game. Brewers went quietly in the bottom of the 9th (one-out HBP). The Rockies went with the bunt strategy in the 10th, not always deployed by road teams. The Colorado kids never got a ball out of the infield but scored twice. Nothing for the Cerveceros in the last-chance frame. Bummer of a loss. 18-year-old RHP Justin Caceres of Nicaragua wasn't killed with exit velocity but was on the mound for the two fateful innings. LHP Pedro Quintana allowed an 8th inning HR that breathed life into the bad guys. It was the first run Quintana had allowed in his 4th pro game. You'll remember that Quintana missed all of 2021 and 2022 due to injury upon being acquired from the Mets for OF Billy McKinney. Not only did 2nd-year RHP Aneuris Rodriguez strand two inherited runners upon entering in the 3rd, he would toss 4.2 hitless, scoreless innings (2 BB, 6 K). Ten of his 15 pro appearances have been starts so the Brewers see something in the just-turned 19-year-old Dominican product. Two intriguing Brewers rookies reached twice. Bonus baby 17-year-old SS Filippo Di Turi seems to fill all his box scores in some fashion. His OPS is .847 through 86 AB's. Though 18-year-old CF Ramon Moreno is only hitting .224 to Di Turi's .337, Moreno's OPS rivals his teammate at .836. Fun line! 82 plate appearances translating to 58 AB's thanks to 21 (!) walks. Plus 24 K's, 6-of-7 in SB attempts, and six of Moreno's 13 hits going for XBH's, including two HR's. Put it all together, and that's kooky!

Will be incorporated into Saturday AM's Link Report:Final: DSL Brewers #1 Squad 3, DSL Guardians Blue 0 Box Score / Game LogOn Thursday, Cerveceros "Uno" were shut out by a 1-0 score, mustering only four hits (one double). Friday's batted-ball offense was similar (five hits, two of them doubles), but the team was able to celebrate a victory. Top 2023 bonus signee Yophery Rodriguez, playing LF in this one (has primarily been in CF this season), has hit safely in ten of his last 11 games. He smacked a line drive one-out single to CF in the 4th, and would score on a clutch two-out double by another 17-year-old, corner infielder Gery Holguin, playing third base here. It was also a two-out single that netted an insurance run in the 8th, with CF Pedro Tovar (a Venezuelan rookie who only turned 17 two weeks ago) driving in 2nd-year Panamanian RF Irving Igualas. Igualas had walked with one out and advanced on a single by yet another 17-year-old, switch-hitting Jhon Bencosme (playing first base here). It's been a struggle for both Igualas and Bencosme in 2023 thus far, so nice to see them contribute. Rookie catcher (DH'ing here) Luis Garcia doubled in Holguin (who had singled) for the bonus insurance in the 9th. Rookie Venezuelan RHP Gabriel Colmenarez cruised through five shutout innings (three hits, one of them a double, 0 BB, 2 K). His countryman, LHP Jose Meneses, followed up with four frames of sweet mound work of his own, as your box score perusal revealed. Meneses did walk two in the 9th to bring the tying run to the plate, but ended the game on a swinging strike. First career win and first career save for the duo, nice! $1.4M bonus baby shortstop Kevin Ereu's pace has cooled since he missed two weeks of action in mid-June (2-for-22). This was his 6th consecutive hitless game, but he's managed to walk ten times in eight games since his return to action, a great sign when the BABIP gods aren't smiling.

Jeferson Quero is only 17 months older than Chourio, has a more impressive strikeout rate, plays an up the middle position with stellar skills (like Chourio), and has an .865 OPS vs. Chourio's .714. Heady times...

While eyes will be rightly fixated on Reds-Brewers, worth noting that Columbus at Nashville with Robert Gasser on the mound is the "Free Game of The Day". (MiLB.TV via MLB At Bat app)

Biloxi Press Release: BILOXI, MS – The Biloxi Shuckers and Milwaukee Brewers have announced that LHP Nick Bennett has been promoted to Triple-A Nashville.

The active roster stands at 27 players. *** In June of 2022, Bennett made one AAA spot relief appearance, it didn't go well. Nick's a pretty cerebral guy, he'll accept the challenge. Congrats, Nick!

AUDIO: Included within the Carolina game summary is Manager Victor Estevez’ postgame interview. Barrios has a bruise and will miss just one game, he’ll be back on Thursday.

As a young person of the 80's and a behind-the-scenes sports geek, "Air" (Prime Video) was really enjoyable (Nike / Air Jordan). So well-acted.
