  1. Brewers placed OF Rymer Liriano, LHP Sean Nolin & Rule 5 RHP Zack Jones on 15-day DL retro to 3/25 today. Of course, not to say any of those three Brewers will be back when eligible in ten days. If necessary, they could be shifted to 60-day DL. Brewers still need to add vets Boyer & Capuano to 40-man; could free up spots by placing RHP Yhonathan Barrios & Will Smith on 60-day DL.
  2. AUDIO via the Bill Michaels Show Wed. 3/30: Seth Everett
  3. AUDIO via the Brewers' site: Brewers on Tap - Episode 39 Second baseman Scooter Gennett talks about the Easter Bunny and Adam McCalvy of MLB.com chats about final roster spots. *** From the Minor League Forum -- Mehring in Arizona Interview – Matt Erickson (March 30, 2016)

  5. Tuesday's games via @BrewersPD -- Louisville edged Col Springs, 2-1. Suter, Magnifico, & Bradley combined for 4.1 innings of scoreless relief. Guez 2B, RBI Biloxi downed Pensacola, 4-2. Roache, Ramirez, & Betancourt all had 3-hit days. Gagnon tossed 3.2 innings out of the pen w/o allowing a run Daytona nipped Brevard, 7-6. Dustin Houle belted a home run for the Manatees, while Dustin Demuth tripled and knocked in two. Wisconsin and Dayton played to a 1-1 draw. Owenby posted 5 shutout innings in the start for the Rattlers. McDowell doubled in the lone run (again, refer to Chris Mehring's posts earlier in this thread).
  6. All kinds of tidbits coming in from your Brewers Twitter beat guy follows, such as this one from Adam McCalvy. Others here (with the big-league Brewers today) & presumably Biloxi-bound for start of season: Javier Betancourt, Brandon Macias, Victor Roache, Hobbs Johnson, Austin Ross.
  7. We'll post a more-detailed update tonight on these players, as we've done in the past for those let go by the Brewers.
  8. Monday's games via @BrewersPD -- Columbus tripped up Colorado Springs, 2-1. Zach Davies had a quality start for the Sky Sox. Macias & Wren each had two hits. Akron doubled up Biloxi, 10-5. Jacob Nottingham went 2x3 with a double, triple, and three RBI. Brett Phillips chipped in three singles. Brevard & Lynchburg tied 5-5. The Manatees collected 6 doubles, two each from Allemand & DeMuth. Stokes doubled and tripled. Wisconsin demolished Lake County, 10-2. The Rattlers pounded out 8 extra-base hits, including home runs from Gatewood, Galiano, & Harrison (refer to Chris Mehring's posts earlier in this thread).
  9. This thread will serve as a placeholder for news on players that don't begin the season with a full-season club. Official rosters of course, won't be announced until post-draft in June.
  10. Looks like veteran RH reliever Jaye Chapman will begin 2016 with Biloxi (post).
  11. First baseman Alan Sharkey set to return to Wisconsin (post).
  12. We will begin to see some formal minor league roster announcements soon. The formal announcement will come directly from the Timber Rattlers, 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 4/7! 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 2016" 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 going to learn about several player releases in the next few days, in addition to those players excited about their assignments.
  13. As per their agent, IF Dustin Demuth and OF Brandon Diaz will begin with the Sea Cows. It seems as though the majority of players may have been given their assignments already.

  15. A unique situation this year, as with the Brewers-Biloxi exhibition game planned, we should get an early indication of who will be on the Shuckers' squad to open the AA season. Now, is it possible a player could be moved to AAA or High-A from that trip based on last minute issues or decisions? Sure, but all things considered, the Biloxi roster may be the first to be fully revealed this year.

  17. We realize that the Sky Sox roster is among the easiest to determine, but again, anything is unofficial until it comes from the organization. That being said, looks like RH reliever Jim Miller has made the cut, as per his agent.

  19. Hader is facing the Brewers in the Biloxi exhibition game (tweet), a pretty good indicator he'll be with the Shuckers.
  20. Colin Walsh: Brewers’ Rule-5 Stanford Success Story by David Laurila, Fangraphs What a great read, filled with quotes from Walsh doing self-analysis...

  22. The art of losing successfully: baseball and the minor league grind As the new season approaches many players aren’t dreaming of a World Series victory – they’re just hoping to stay in the major leagues. Chris Bassitt is among their number David Gendelman, theguardian.com Good article from a general sense, there is one Sky Sox anecdote of note -- When players get sent back down to the minors, it’s not unusual for them to show frustration. Last year, one player on the triple-A team the Colorado Springs Sky Sox used his helmet to destroy a sink in the dugout after he struck out, and the game had to be stopped because water was gushing up the first-base line. His teammates held out buckets to catch the cascade.
  23. Dan Karcher -- ST gm. No.11 went to @Reds AAA 2-1. J.Lopez 4ip, 2r, Suter 3ip, 0r, Magnifico & Bradley 1ip , 0r.
