    I think it's becoming clear that Jesus Made has figured out AA. Could see a promotion very shortly.

    Ebel might be the poster child for "Progression is never linear" xD

    I don't blame the kid. I'd do the same thing. Clemson better win the national championship because I would imagine MLB orgs wont be too interested in Clemson players after this.

    I agree. You dont sign these prospects based on what they can do in year 1. I notice some people don't recognize that college is also a development system for these young guys so looking at their college stats (especially freshmen year) isnt necessarily an indication of what they're gonna be.

    He's been on my radar for about a month now. At least offensively, comparing what stats and data is available, there's an argument to be made that he's having a better season than Made had in 2024. Ignoring the obvious stats; he's had better contact rate and FB% (considering his BABIP is near his BA those FBs are probably hit with pretty good launch angles and velocity). He's pretty passive swinging and doesn't walk as much, but considering his BA, the kid seems to know his strike zone well and is forcing pitchers to throw in his zone. But yeah, I have no metrics on defense and the Brewers don't stream DSL games so its limited info on that front.

    So is Leanders Matos a robot programmed to rake? 👀
  7. eklinka
    Tyson Hardin is probably the closest.
  8. eklinka
    Dinges has been dealing with a shoulder impingement. He still has a ton of potential and we dont have any real good catching talent coming up the pipe outside of Quero. I don't see the brewers trading him.
  9. eklinka
    I think we might be a little spoiled here 😂 T Rats lineup is missing a few injured players and a lot of promotions this year. Healthy, its still a damn good one.

    I think more importantly, his contact rate is at 77.1% which is still below average, but decent for his profile. The 69% at A+ was very concerning, but if he stays where he is, 31% K rate isn't looking so horrible.
  11. eklinka
    We saw people on the forums and X saying it all offseason lol if they dont think that, they certainly post it for whatever reason.
  12. eklinka
    Adames, Contreras, and even Hoskins dont have as poor a K% or Contact rate as Fischer does and that's against MLB pitching.... So no, they dont care about HRs enough to eat what will be even worse stats in MLB with Fischer.
  13. eklinka
    Realistically, does this team strike you as one that cares that much about HRs that they'd be willing to accept poor K%s and contact rates? I guarantee you Fischer will not see his OBP increase in MLB if you threw him into the fire right now. There's a much better chance of his whiff and K rate skyrocketing than his HR rate being remotely close to what it is right now in AA.
  14. eklinka
    I've seen this argument before, it was only 16 WBC PA and his best games were against AA pitchers (he wasnt the only prospect that played in the WBC). Not diminishing his success, but that's not equivalent to MLB experience. And it would be extremely bad to bring up a young player only for him to get smoked by MLB pitching, demolishing his confidence. Trust in the Brewers to make the right decision when it comes to bringing up players.
  15. eklinka
    It truly amazes me how people think players can just go from even high A to MLB and have the same success they had in the minors. Like a guy has 28 HRs between A+ & AA so that means he'll get 28 HRs in MLB as a plug n play. 😂
  16. eklinka
    Why don't they just close the roof? 🤭 Seriously though, that field needs one
  17. eklinka
    The box score for Wilson breaks my brain: 14 runs, but only 8 hits. 13 walks, but 13 Ks. 13 RBIs, but only 2 XBHs. 😵‍💫 That's just baseball sometimes lol
  18. eklinka
    Seems to be up and working
  19. eklinka
    I tend to trust the organization when it comes to catchers. They turned Yasmani Grandal and Omar Narvaez into good defensive catchers. I got high hopes for Dinges. Plus, OF is overly saturated with talent up and down the system. Dinges moving to Corner OF doesnt seem like the right move when you consider org depth and his skillset. He's got all the physical tools and now it just takes refining them.
  20. eklinka
    With pretty much all the OFs struggling in Low A minus Ibarguen, you wonder how much longer they're gonna keep Frias in the ACL. Also, this Timber Rattlers pitching staff is starting to get concerning... they have the highest team ERA and WHIP in the midwest league and its not even close... 👀
  21. eklinka
    So Luis Lara... 👀 What neuron was activated this offseason for +power? 😂
  22. eklinka
    This T-Rats pitching is really suspect... worst ERA in the midwest league 👀 hope its just growing pains
  23. eklinka
    The amount of emerging power with already great speed is incredible to see. I never would've expected some of these guys to have this many HRs in an entire season, let alone the first month.... and even some of the slow-power guys like burke getting steals regularly shows how savvy can be just as crucial to baserunning as speed. A lot of the top prospects are looking real good to start the season.
  24. eklinka
    Who gave him permission to rake? Game must've really slowed down for him. 16 games in and it's feeling less and less like a hot streak...
  25. eklinka
    Yep, Dorchies is only 19 in high A and Letson, 21 in AA. Pitchers require more seasoning than position players. Even the best pitching prospects usually don't come up to the majors until at least 23 at the earliest.
