Winter League Action from Wednesday, November 23 C Mario Feliciano – a much-needed on-base-four-times game: 2-for-3, two BB's, one K; even with that effort, through 54 AB's, Feliciano's line is .185/.250/.185 (.435 OPS). All ten of his base hits are singles. Feliciano did see one baserunner steal - it was old friend Yadiel Rivera. RHP Javy Guerra - Guerra now up to a spotless (0.00 ERA) through 11 innings, facing just one over the minimum in two innings (a walk), striking out two. He got the win in a 3-2 game, having pitched the 4th and 5th innings. RHP Abner Uribe was awarded the win despite allowing an unearned run in the top of the 9th that saw his team down 6-4 at that point. But his mates rallied for three runs in the bottom of the frame for a 7-6 walkoff. Uribe allowed a single, walk, and wild pitch during his eventful inning. RHP Luis Contreras' transition from Arizona Fall League to Venezuelan Winter League is fine through five games. One earned run in 5.2 IP thus far with a 0.71 WHIP. However, here he entered in the 4th with bases loaded, one out. A wild pitch and sac fly saw two inherited runners score. A 1-2-3 5th inning followed. C Brian Navarreto – 0-for-3, two BB's, one K. Feliciano's winter teammate. Their team lost this game 3-2. 2B Andruw Monasterio - 0-for-3, R, one BB, one K in his team's 9-3 loss- now at a solid .257/.373/.414 (.787 OPS) through 70 AB's 1B Jesus Chirinos – 0-for-1, two walks, was lifted for a pinch-runner in the 7th C Jason Lopez - 1-for-3, R, K - now up to 25 AB's and the OPS still flies at 1.396

Box score from that Max Lazar game, a 9-0 Brisbane rout (Lazar also picked a man off first) - 2B Robert Moore - 1-for-5, R, RBI, one K C Darrien Miller - 1-for-2 (a double), 2 R, 1 BB, 1 K LHP Justin King - 1 IP, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K

New trade acquisition and 40-man roster member RHP Javy Guerra's winter ball stats in the Dominican Republic - Via the Journal-Sentinel's Todd and Curt - Guerra, who recently turned 27, is a converted shortstop who has made just 44 relief appearances in the majors since 2019. This past season, the right-hander went 2-1 with a 3.38 ERA and WHIP of 1.31 for the pitching-rich Rays. He only struck out nine in 16 innings over 17 appearances but averaged 98.3 mph on his four-seam fastball and 97.2 mph with a sinker he utilizes to generate ground-ball outs. "Guerra is a really interesting player," said Arnold. "He’s got a great arm. We feel like he’s trending in the right direction. He’s a converted guy and he hasn’t been pitching full-time for that many years, so we still feel like there’s upside there with him. "He’s pitching right now in winter ball and done a really good job there. 7 G, 0.00 ERA, 8 IP, 3 H, 1 BB, 1 HBP, 5 K We really like the arm, and his stuff is top-end. It’s a guy that you bring into your mix with an upper-90s fastball that has a chance to pitch at the back end of games. "Those are the kinds of guys that get us excited, and our group is excited to have him aboard."

RHP signed as a minor league free agent by the Crew this week and placed on Nashville's roster. 2022: 1-15 W-L, 7.82 ERA, 23 G (22 starts), 76 IP, 102 H, 15 HR, 51 BB, 54 K, 2.01 WHIP Maybe it's not fair to focus just on 2022 for RHP Tobias Myers, a 2016 draft pick of the Orioles out of a Florida high school. Just one year later, he was dealt by the O's to the Rays for former #1 overall pick SS Tim Beckham. In November 2021, Myers was dealt to the Guardians and added to Cleveland's 40-man roster. In early July of 2022, he was traded again as part of a DFA deal to the Giants. A month after that, he was claimed on waivers by the White Sox. Chicago released him this past September 19th. Sometimes Wikipedia's not the best place to turn, but Myers' page does a very solid job of detailing his baseball journey. Cleveland fans online are very much lamenting the loss of Junior Caminero, who was dealt to Tampa for Myers. So, the Brewers see something here, If Myers ever makes his way back on the Crew's 40-man roster, he'd have two option years remaining. But goodness, it's tough to overlook those 2022 results. Though unlikely, technically Myers is available for selection in the Rule 5 draft next month, Unlikely Myers received a big-league camp invite, the Brewers normally announce that.
