San Antonio Pre-Game Media Notes From within the notes above, this is pre-game: "One of the Best: Tonight's starter for San Antonio, Aaron Wilkerson, doesn't have enough innings pitched to qualify for the PCL leaderboard for the season but has still been one of the league's best pitchers. Of the 62 pitchers in the PCL who have made at least seven starts, Wilkerson's 0.46 ERA is the lowest and his 0.74 WHIP is the second lowest behind only New Orleans' Zac Gallen who boasts a 0.69 WHIP. Since he returned to the ball club from Milwaukee on May 7 he leads the PCL in ERA (0.32), WHIP (0.79), opponent batting average (.135), opponent slugging (.208), and opponent OPS (.425)." More goodness in this one! *** Box: San Antonio 9, Salt Lake City 0 Wilkerson lowers his ERA to 0.40 although his WHIP jumped all the way to 0.78, what a bum, lost his no-hit bid in the 5th. "Missions post their AAA-leading 10th shutout, draw a season-high 10 walks, and move a season high 16 games over .500" *** You could say that David Stearns has done a better job building the 2019 Missions roster than the 2019 Brewers. This bullpen, via good fortune that other MLB teams passed on so many DFA's, is crazy good with a mixed level of experience. The David Freitas waiver claim, the fact Tyler Saladino had an option left (another HR in this game), Cory Spangenberg, another that got through waivers. Awesome depth. *** Oh yeah, as you'll see in the box score, "The Man Can Hit". No formal game summary yet, we'll link to it later today.

As it turns out, we've updated this September 2018 post from the Transaction Thread: Name change adjustment, player is now Mejia, not Gonzalez.

Brewer pitchers allowed 11 hits (five for extra bases), walked ten, and hit four batters. Pro debut for 18-year-old Mexican starting RHP Oscar Castaneda (no word if related to the Timber Rattlers' Victor) - 2 IP, normally you don't want to see this box score notation: Castaneda pitched to 5 batters in the 3rd. Catcher Farlyn Manon finished up on the hill, not as successfully as Hernan Perez. *** First professional hit for catcher Jhonnys Cabrera came on his 17th birthday, nice!

Doesn't happen often, but INF Trever Morrison has been reinstated from the Voluntarily Retired List. So we may see him re-assigned to an affiliate this summer.

Biloxi Press Release: PEARL, MS – The Biloxi Shuckers, Double-A affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers, have made two roster moves prior to their game on Tuesday night against the Mississippi Braves. Catcher Alexander Alvarez has been activated from the injured list, and catcher Robie Rojas has been transferred to the Rocky Mountain Vibes roster. Alvarez returns to the Shuckers after being placed on the injured list on May 14. In 16 games with Biloxi this season, Alvarez is hitting .128 with three doubles, three RBI and four runs scored. The 22-year-old was acquired by the Brewers in the Triple-A phase of the Rule 5 Draft in 2018 from the Tampa Bay Rays. Rojas made four appearances while on the Shuckers active roster, going 4-for-12 (.308) with two doubles, an RBI and three runs scored. A 38th-round pick in 2017 by the Brewers, Rojas guided the Shuckers pitching staff to a 4-0 record in games that he was behind the plate, commanding the staff to a 2.25 ERA.

Brewers Player Development released this video package on Monday.
