  1. Friday February 1st: AUDIO via the Fancounters Podcast: (Starts at the 03:45 minute mark) "Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a radio broadcaster for a Major League Baseball Team? This week we’re honored to have Lane Grindle joining us to talk about what it’s like to work alongside Bob Uecker!

  9. The Prospects1500 list is pretty thorough in their Top 50 Lun Zhao at 49? They'll learn...
  10. The Brewers released RHP Joshua Torres, then 21, after a stumble to begin 2015 with the TimberRattlers, although he finished that year strong at Helena. Torres was an undrafted free agent signee of the Crew in June 2012. And yes, we did question the release at that time ... Torres resorted to playing amateur ball in his native Puerto Rico in '16, and it wasn't even the top level of amateur ball on the island, as you'll learn if you choose to run this article through Google Translate. The Mets signed Torres in December of 2016, and he has shined since (check out his AA campaign at his player page linked above). He will be a non-roster invitee in Mets' big league camp this spring, coming off a fantastic few months as a closer in the Puerto Rico Winter League. In the early days of Brewerfan, we followed LHP Craig Breslow after his release by the Crew. He took the indy ball route to find his way back and just capped a very successful and lengthy big league career. It's rare, but there's hope for the various Brewer releases we see. But always credit the player.
  11. Enjoyed this insightful full-length interview (38 minutes, download here) with 2016 3rd round RHP Braden Webb (University of South Carolina, was uniquely eligible to be drafted as a redshirt freshman at the time). The interview is linked from the BaseballPastor.com website, and while there are several Christian references during the chat, it's hardly pound-you-over-the-head-stuff, so don't be concerned if those references aren't your cup of tea for a podcast. It's mostly a baseball journey and personal growth journey discussion. Webb discusses in quite a bit of detail just how close he came to quitting the game after his first pro season (Timber Rattlers in 2017). Not only did Webb deliver on his promise in a big way during the 2nd half of 2018, where he ended the season with four strong appearances with AA Biloxi, but he notes that the same teammates who pretty much couldn't stand him in Appleton grew to bond closely with him in Carolina this past summer. Forthright discussion you don't hear too often. I popped the interview in and it filled one of my morning work commutes nicely, perhaps you choose to do the same. There will be plenty of archived media from BrewersOnDeck events this weekend, and those will all be linked in this thread that has filled your offseason thus far, but do eventually find time for this one if you're able.

  15. Via the Vibes for the Rookie Ball level on their new hitting coach: Nick Stanley, 31, begins his second year as a coach in the Brewers organization. He spent 2018 as hitting coach with the DSL Indians/Brewers, and 2017 as a coach at St. Petersburg College, a role he also held in 2010. Previously, Stanley worked as the National Coach for Baseball New Zealand in Auckland. He contributed to several aspects of the organization, including player and program development as well as recruitment. Stanley played two years in the Houston Astros system, after being drafted by the organization in the 25th round of the 2009 First Year Player Draft out of Florida Southern College. He graduated in 2012 with a B.A. in criminology from the University of South Florida. Nick currently resides in Seminole, Florida.
