AUDIO (taped earlier this season): Via the Sky Sox pre-game, Brewers roving outfield/baserunning coordinator (and manager of the Maryvale Rookie team) Tony Diggs

As per Dan at the Sky Sox blog -- ADD: C Rene Garcia promoted from Double-A Biloxi RHP Hiram Burgos reinstated from the disabled list DEL: C Manny Pina placed on the disabled list Biloxi hasn't announced a corresponding move to get their own 2nd catcher to back up Jacob Nottingham, we imagine Parker Berberet will be summoned from the paper taxi squad.

VIDEO: Was pleased to see in this report via WLOX that for home games, Shuckers players are prepared both a pre-game and post-game meal. I imagine that's the case at most ballparks for the home team, not sure. Are those same meals offered to the opposing teams? How easy would it be for all affiliated teams, with financial assistance from the big league parent clubs, to enter into an agreement to feed both squads for each game in such a manner, meaning the minimum daily meal money given to each player can focus on a nutritious breakfast!

From Tuesday's game --

Happy 29th Birthday to Sky Sox jack of all trades (and doing them all well in 2016) Jake Elmore

AM 6/14: AAA Colorado Springs Sky Sox Manager Rick Sweet discusses various topics impacting the big league club and the organization overall *** AUDIO via "The Brewer Nation" Blog Tue. 6/14 -- Nice job here by Adam Rygg on his post-draft podcast, here's the breakdown: Adam scored his own interview with 1st round OF Corey Ray - 11:45 minute mark This is followed by all the various interviews, previously released to the pool media, of Amateur Scouting Director Ray Montgomery Adam chats with 6th round Utah high school catcher Payton Henry (all indications are his signing will become formal shortly) - 01:02:00 minute mark Wrapping up, is an excellent discussion with Brewers Farm Director Tom Flanagan - 01:23:00 minute mark Really liked the podcast, especially the Flanagan interview, which had a nice focus on Helena/Maryvale topics, but also much more.

MISC. NOTES: Road locations Jacksonville and Quad Cities both carry MiLB.TV, with the road audio calls, naturally *** If indeed Hiram Burgos makes the Sky Sox start this afternoon as listed, it'll mean he comes off the disabled list this AM. *** From the Shuckers -- Biloxi and Pensacola head into their final series of the half in a tie for first place in the Southern League South. The Shuckers have five games remaining, while the Blue Wahoos have six. Regardless of opponent, I think I'd rather play the five games than six. It places the impetus on Pensacola to have a better record down the stretch than Biloxi. Go Shuckers!

And here's video from that game. With Brewer batters facing Brewer pitchers to keep it competitive, a 7-1 final means it was a nice night for the Helena position players.

As chock-full as this Link report was, the Sky Sox and Manatees play matinees on Wednesday, so look for a new Link Report to kick off by mid-morning. No audio for the 9:35 AM Central Brevard game, so that'll be for the game log watchers...

And here's video from that game. With Brewer batters facing Brewer pitchers to keep it competitive, a 7-1 final means it was a nice night for the Helena position players. Remember, we posted during the overnightthat so far, nine draft picks are among the names on the Helena preliminary roster.

How you close out a 3-2 win -- Quad Cities Bottom of the 9th Anthony Hermelyn strikes out swinging. Pat Porter strikes out swinging. Connor Goedert flies out to left fielder Troy Stokes Jr.

Darn it! Catcher Manny Pina, who has been so very hot literally all season, left Game One of the Sky Sox doubleheader with what looks like a hamstring injury. Col. Springs Bottom of the 6th Yadiel Rivera strikes out swinging. Orlando Arcia singles on a line drive to center fielder John Andreoli. Manny Pina doubles (17) on a fly ball to left fielder Matt Murton. Orlando Arcia to 3rd. Offensive Substitution: Pinch-runner Ariel Pena replaces Manny Pina. Sky Sox will need a backup for Josmil Pinto starting Wednesday.

Thank you for that. I read it hoping to see something ....... anything about Carlos Leal. Any word on him? This was the last update from Flanagan (again, via Rosiak) on May 4th -- C Carlos Leal is seeing doctors this week about troublesome right shoulder. Could need surgery. Hit team-best .309 in 2015 at Wisconsin. We'll ask Todd to please get an update for his report next week...

Make sure you see Farm Director Tom Flanagan's latest updates in this thread.

Posted Tue. 6/14, courtesy of Todd Rosiak on Twitter via Tom Flanagan -- Eight scouts already in Helena after draft in Milwaukee as team divvies up rosters and prepares players for season. AZL rookie Brewers, too. Trey Supak scheduled to pitch in a scrimmage tonight in Helena. Rosters won’t be finalized until better idea of which new draftees sign. So, focus now is on getting those younger players squared away and ready to play. Demi Orimoloye and Gilbert Lara are big names at Helena. A few injury updates: Wisconsin 2B Tucker Neuhaus’ return has been pushed back about a month. Broken finger slower to heal than expected. Wisconsin RHP David Burkhalter has been sidelined with an elbow strain not deemed serious. Will rehab some in Arizona and then return. Biloxi OF Victor Roache has been out with a calf strain that will probably need another 10 days to heal. Taylor Williams is on Helena roster but won’t pitch there. Will continue rehab from last August’s Tommy John surgery in Arizona. *** First of all, the fact that Flanagan hooks up with Rosiak each week for these updates is fantastic. Man, Neuhaus must have really mangled that finger. Speaking of fantastic, considering the first report we received on Burkhalter was bleak, that update is wonderful for the young man. Rosiak also posted his weekly minors summary column.

Tweet via @BrewerProspect -- So after 175 at-bats, (Timber Rattlers) Luis Aviles drew his first walk of the season yesterday. He drew 2 more tonight. #baseball

Looks like the image wasn't appearing in all browsers, so it's been re-posted in another fashion. The draft picks are Erceg, Brown, Fox, Jankins, Serigstad, Hummel, Rodriguez, Wilson, and Whalen.
