Players struggling after being traded from the Crew -- RHP Drew Gagnon (Bandy / Maldonado deal) INF Nick Noonan (sold to Marlins) RHP Damien Magnifico (claimed by Angels from Orioles, did get a one-game callup, since optioned back to AAA)

The Shuckers have essentially been playing with a 24-man roster, as RHP Taylor Williams last pitched way back on May 25th, and has not been placed on the DL (or Helena roster, or the Temp Inactive List).

Impressive numbers by LHP Caleb Smith (AAA Yankees), he's the pitcher the Brewers selected for the Cubs in Rule 5 last December. The Cubs decided they could not keep him and returned him to the Yankees prior to the season.

You can also use that link to differentiate between Brewer and Indians' prospects on the co-op team.

We realize that this isn't the transaction thread, but it likely makes more sense to post Dominican Summer League signings here. Brewers sign recently-turned 20-year-old LHP (we'll always accept LHP's) Silvestre Berroa, who was released by the Diamondbacks last October after 33 relief appearances over two seasons. Numbers are solid, as you can see at the link. Berroa was assigned to the Brewers' own (non-shared) squad. Welcome aboard!

LHP Andy Oliver activated from the Temporary Inactive List at Colorado Springs. When Paulo Espino officially arrives after his option, the Sky Sox will need to make another move, most likely a pitcher to maintain a 13-man pitching staff, rather than 14.

Because YouTube demands it -- one more time!

A couple of days ago, the Mudcats posted several videos showing series-by-series highlights on their YouTube page. They also thanked Corbin Burnes for his efforts before his promotion with this -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pePo04S8mnk

FYI, exactly one month after his last Biloxi game, traded OF Victor Roache made his Dodgers' debut on June 1st at the High-A level in the California League, he homered in each of his first two games, including a grand slam in game two. Overall, he's 4-for-19 with three walks but ten strikeouts with his new club in Rancho Cucamonga.

Final: Colorado Springs 7, Iowa 3 Cooper, Snow Lead Sox To Win Wren moves up stolen base record board in series opener By Robby Veronesi / Colorado Springs Sky Sox Forrest Snow earned the win in his first Sky Sox, throwing 3 1/3 scoreless innings Friday night against Iowa. (Paat Kelly) Garrett Cooper drove in three runs and Forrest Snow earned the win in his Sky Sox debut as Colorado Springs defeated the Iowa Cubs, 7-3, in front of 5,786 Friday night at Security Service Field. Rest of the recap at the link above -- beat those Cubs! *** Colorado Springs Box Score If Jonathan Viilar is going to be out for a while, Yadiel Rivera is on the 40-man, but Ivan De Jesus, Jr.'s bat would be a plus addition, even with PCL-inflated numbers...

Not a Brewers story in any way (Mudcats, though), and is shaping up to be quite a legal drama -- also goes to show how fragile a career opportunity can be: Reds scouting report at center of lawsuit between former minor league pitcher and bus company Man says bus crash ended career, cost him millions By James Leggate, WCPO.com

In The Spotlight: Lewis Brinson No. 1 Brewers prospect focusing more on play than on accolades By Robby Veronesi / Colorado Springs Sky Sox Lewis Brinson may be highly touted by multiple sources, but the No.1 prospect is focusing more on what he can control. (Paat Kelly photo)

AUDIO via Friday's Shuckers Pre-Game: "Shuckers manager Mike Guerrero discusses starting pitching, a promotion and more prior to the series opener with Jacksonville." *** AUDIO via the Shuck Dynasty Soundcloud: "Highlights from the Shuckers 6-2 win over Jacksonville including a pair of home runs by Clint Coulter, an inside-the-park homer from Blake Allemand and great pitching." *** And now that you've listened to the highlights, watch them here, courtesy of the Shuckers. *** VIDEO via WLOX: Yes, yet another view *** VIDEO via WLOX: MGM Park celebrating 2 years in Biloxi

Just two days ago -- *** The Brewers played the media, us, the fanbase, etc... It's pretty clear why. You can't have a big league bullpen full of guys knowing that Hader would be up within a week or so after a couple of "abbreviated" outings to prep. Rick Sweet sure played his role well here -- kudos, sir.
