  1. Pricy, but, if you are a sports diehard and need Bally Sports Wisconsin:
  2. Sunday 2/5: Latest Milwaukee Tailgate Podcast - "The guys discuss the recent Bally's Sports news, what it might mean for the Brewers this year and beyond, the Brewers' Walk and Hall of Fame, and how pitching might be effected by the shift." *** Monday 2/6: Podcast via Baseball America: Kyle Glaser and Ben Badler break down the Brewers farm system, including Jackson Chourio's lofty potential, if Robert Gasser is their next pitching success story and why the Brewers system aligns perfectly with their big-league needs.

  4. If there's one thing we've learned, it's pay attention when the #Brewers go the undrafted route when signing potential high octane relief arms with developable pitchability. Here's the new feature article out:
  5. Felt this worthy of its own Turang thread -
  6. Perth Catcher Alex Hall was 0-for-4 with two K's in a blowout loss and as you can see below, it'll be an overnight Saturday night game (US time) for the best-named Championship Trophy in sports:
  7. Jon Olczak, the 2015-2019 Brewers farmhand (2015 21st round out of NC State) was let go in the pandemic purge of spring 2020. Now 29 years old, he gets another affiliated opportunity after two years in the Astros' system, including 47 games (45 in relief) at AAA in 2022. Olczak received a big league spring camp invite with the Crew in '19 and another with Houston last spring.
  8. Well, if you can sign as of your 16th birthday in the January window, then the reach-outs and “wink-wink” agreements have to begin early. Let’s revisit this over the next 23 months.
  9. Not sure what the alternatives are (or if that connotation is even needed), but I absolutely foresee trouble looming if the “thumbs down” icon sticks around. Yikes.
  10. No mention of any injury concerns, Peterson looking forward to spring training. Enjoy the entire chat, but it's not until the 37:00 minute mark that the talk of draft day and time with the Brewers begins. Don't panic at the 45-second dead spot near the 40:00 minute mark, they recover nicely.
  11. Via "The Baseball Grind" Podcast: "In this episode, Francisco Castro is joined by LHP Nate Peterson, a pitching prospect in the Brewers organization. Milwaukee drafted Nate in the 8th round in 2022! We talk about pitching at Oklahoma State, the football vibes there, transferring to University of Illinois-Chicago, playing for the Savannah Bananas, and much more!" *** Video will be available via YouTube by next week, this post will be updated to include. Peterson did not pitch in pro ball in 2022, his stats from last spring at UIC-Chicago are linked above.
  12. Monday 1/30: Via WSSP's Steve "Sparky" Fifer: "David Gasper of ReviewingTheBrew.com discusses the remaining questions of the Brewers off-season." *** Wednesday 2/1: Via Locked on Brewers: The final "Locked on" for a while as Brandon steps away as a new promotion at WTMJ opened up for him Via the "YNK: You Know What I Mean?" Podcast: Christian Yelich (two hours plus, a bit of NSFW F-drops) Via WTMJ: Dom Cotroneo hosts the latest "Brewers Weekly" - New York Times baseball columnist Tyler Kepner is a guest within, and the full interview with him is archived separately *** Thursday 2/2: Via Eric Cressey's latest @elitebaseballpod: Devin Williams
  13. All the full-season leagues are locked after the elimination of Rookie Advanced leagues. Each MLB club gets one affiliate each at AAA, AA, High-A and A. There’s no room for your hopeful plan.
  14. We’ll have to wait and see, this is a valid point but the BrewersPD tweet didn’t specify a “Gold” and “Blue” team.
  15. All the Affiliate Press Releases from Wednesday: Nashville Biloxi Wisconsin Carolina
  16. Via damuelle on 12/2: We wanted to give a send-off message to recently released Zach Mort: 25-year old Virginian RHP Zach Mort joined the Brewers in January 2021 after being an 8th round pick of the Cubs (George Mason University) and playing the 2018 and 2019 seasons with them. Over 2021/2022, Mort threw 32 2/3 IP at Low-A Carolina and 143 2/3 IP at High-A Wisconsin, producing a combined 5.67 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 8.9 K/9. He seemed to find his groove as a reliever in 2022 (2.77 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, 6-1 record), but struggled mightily in six spot starts (10.13 ERA). We wish Zach the best of luck in his next adventure. *** UPDATE: Congrats to Zach as the Braves signed him and have placed him on their AA Mississippi roster for now.
  17. Actually, we'll need to see if RH reliever JC Mejia joins his Licey club in the eight-team Caribbean Series (February 2nd - February 10th) pitting league champions from across Latin America (list of participating teams here). By the way, this is how you walk off a league championship win:
