Seriously?) and the other memorable moments of the first 2019 homestand, including a Lorenzo Cain catch and a Josh Hader inning that will be talked about for a while. Could the Brewers attempt to sign Yelich to a long-term deal, contributing to a hot trend of stars signing extensions in Major League Baseball? Does it appear Hader will be used any differently this year than last year? What's the biggest factor in the Craig Kimbrel buzz? How does Todd evaluate the first start of Corbin Burnes, with 12 strikeouts in five innings but also three homers? Also Third Base Coach Ed Sedar is interviewed."

  17. So in most ways, little is changing. The Link Report posts for the four full-season affiliates will be brief, I know as a minor league diehard, the fun is in poring over the box scores, and the links will be direct for you. I'd love to get readers' insights as to how your reliance (or non-reliance) on the Link Report has evolved over the years. Do we still serve a purpose? (I'm guessing if you're a regular, you'd say yes.) Overall the process is still a bit demanding. It's a labor of love for those of us who contribute, and there is no financial benefit for us in getting higher click counts or such. But if it's still appreciated, we'll push on. Please feel free to chime in, or if not a registered member, you can tweet me @Mass_Haas. Thanks to all.
  18. One place where I think we can really stand out from elsewhere is when the rookie level squads begin play. Colorado Springs will provide fine coverage of the Rocky Mountain Vibes, but we know that there is nothing formal out of the Dominican or Maryvale. And between those two locations alone, there are now four box scores to review. So once June rolls around, that will continue to be an area where we can be of particular interest. Between myself, Toby, and others, we should be good in that regard.
  19. Now, by early the next morning (basically during the overnight), we'll still link to subsequent video highlights via Minor League Baseball's YouTube page, as we've done in the past. We'll have also linked to any available online audio, including the voluminous audio library that is and will continue to be the Rattler Radio podcast. We'll still link to video from the local TV newscasts, something that in particular Biloxi's outlets provide a great deal. We'll learn together what the San Antonio experience when it comes to the Link Report is all about. When player quotes are available in local newspaper articles or player hometown newspaper features, you'll still see those. By the time mid-morning rolls around, the Link Report will still be your one-stop shop for Brewers affiliate news, as it always has been.
  20. Clean and simple. No need to copy and paste text or photos from the same game summary that fans are going to click on anyway. Now, if there are tidbits that one of our "Link Reporters" wants to share (perhaps they were able to watch or listen, and something's not included in the game story, why of course, they'll have the freedom to add that). But those comments should not be duplicate of what the box score or summary tells us.
  21. Box: Biloxi 2, Jacksonville 1 Grisham's Game: Shuckers Take Down Jumbo Shrimp 2-1
  22. The full-season affiliates are going to pump out game summaries all season. I'm just looking to ease the process and streamline here for all involved. I've always appreciated the efforts of our Link Reporters, somebody normally latches on to one particular affiliate for as many as 130 or more of that team's 140 games. In the example here from the initial post above, August 6th, 2018, Biloxi won, 2-1. So a newly-condensed Link Report post would look like this:
  23. Organizational Scoreboard including starting pitcher info, game times, MiLB TV links, and box scores Dominican Summer League Scoreboard (includes DSL Brewers/Indians game) *** Links for affiliate audio *** Media notes, standings, and sortable stat pages *** The entire local TV Timber Rattlers broadcast schedule
  24. Hi everyone. Since mid-season 2001. Minor League Link Reports. That's a long time. Jim Powell talking us up during broadcasts of woeful big-league Brewers teams. The fact is that our viewing numbers for the Link Reports have dropped precipitously in recent years. I can think of several reasons. Our site is not exactly mobile-friendly, at least not mobile phone-friendly. We can't embed Twitter images. Speaking of Twitter, that platform has allowed for minor league fans to easily follow along on a nightly basis. I know Twitter is a huge "go-to" platform for me. Plus, years ago, MiLB.com was a wasteland. Not all the affiliates were under the MiLB site umbrella. Affiliates often wouldn't post game summaries. It just wasn't the well-oiled MLBAM machine it is now. We're still going to post a Link Report daily. The initial daily post will be up before all the action begins, and will continue to include links to all the radio broadcasts. In fact, the initial post will look a lot like it has in recent years:
  25. We will begin to see some formal minor league roster announcements soon. The formal announcement will come directly from the Sky Sox, not the Brewers. All four minor league affiliates will likely send out their press releases within an hour or so of each other once the Brewers have given them the official go-ahead to do so. Opening Night is Thursday 4/4! NOTE: Last season, the affiliates released their rosters on Tuesday AM, just two days prior) Feel free to link to any formal notices you see here. Often we learn via farmhand tweets, who has been assigned where, prior to the formal affiliate announcements. We'll link to any of those posts in this thread as they come out. As you might know, we use the "Your 2019" threads to post and link to feature stories that are outside the scope of game activity covered in the Daily Link Report. These threads have become among the most popular for viewing here, and we look forward to kicking them off formally. Please don't speculate here at this time, this is an anxious time for many on the farm, and unfortunately we're also likely going to learn about more player releases in the next few days, in addition to those players excited about their assignments.
