  1. brent suter and jimmy nelson reinstated from the 60-day disabled list. the roster is at 37. stephen vogt was also activated from the 60-day dl, but outrighted off the 40-man roster and he declared free agency.
  2. when these moves are official, the roster will be at 35.
  3. mike moustakas and joakim soria decline their mutual options and become free agents. the roster is at 36.
  4. jake hager has re-signed with the brewers and will be in 2019 big league camp as a non-roster invitee. he has yet to appear on a 40-man roster, so he has three minor league options should he be added to the club's 40-man.
  5. gio gonzalez, curtis granderson and wade miley elect free agency. tyrone taylor has his contract selected by the brewers and will enter 2019 spring training with three minor league options. the roster is at 38.
  6. the infamous ben hendrickson makes his return to this forum. charges outlined here. i wonder if someone can find ben's dad on this forum and private message him for a comment?
  7. interesting. i would have thought that san antonio, the seventh largest city in the nation, would have more nonstop destinations from its airport than just 54. no milwaukee.
  8. he hasn't started a game yet since roster expansion (the presence of curtis granderson probably blocks him), but santana did double last night as a pinch hitter.
  9. quite a relief to see that knebel appears to have returned to form. since his recall, 15 batters faced: all retired.
  10. two or fewer earned runs in 12 of miley's 13 starts. that 13th start? a paltry three earned runs.
  11. if the brewers totally tank, would they cut some of their pending free agents in the final weeks in order to select the contracts of prospects and give them a taste of the big leagues? i know that eliminated clubs often state that they want to put their best team possible on the field to be a spoiler, but is it worth cutting gio gonzalez or curtis granderson to give quintin torres-costa a shot?
  12. According to Adam McCalvy they have to stay 10 days now after the most recent CBA but I can't find the particular rule where it states that. it appears you're correct. the source on mlb.com that i have been citing was from 2016. i wonder who pushed for this change. from a player's perspective, it may give a club pause in optioning a guy towards the end of august knowing that he's hands off for 10 days, but from the club's perspective, they have up to 15 guys to choose from to absorb the workload of that optioned player as soon as 1 september (plus any outside acquisition in late august). taylor williams will be burning his second option and will enter 2019 spring training with one option remaining. if under the previous collective bargaining agreement, he wouldn't be forced to burn that second option.
  13. it appears that with the latest collective bargaining agreement, players optioned towards the end of august must wait the requisite 10 days before being eligible to be recalled--even with the minor league season having ended prior to those 10 days. thus, taylor williams has burned his second option.
  14. He had an option left going into this season. No clue if he used it or how that all works. I let the people who know way more than me explain all that guerra spent less than 20 days optioned in 2018, so his option was not burned.
  15. davies isn't burning his second option this year, despite being optioned last month. burnes hasn't been optioned yet in his brief major league career, so he still has three.
  16. yesterday evening on facebook, i unliked the colorado springs sky sox page. it felt really good doing so.
  17. I'd add Burnes and Barnes, likely before Williams. taylor williams is currently optioned.
  18. because the 2018 sky sox season has ended, the brewers can petition the commissioner's office to recall any player that was optioned less than 10 days ago. if taylor williams were recalled today, he would not burn his 2018 option.
  19. because the sky sox season has ended, the 10-day requisite stay for optioned players need no longer apply if the mlb commissioner approves the recall of the player. thus, freddy peralta and taylor williams could be candidates for recall as soon as today.
  20. because the sky sox season has ended, the 10-day requisite stay for optioned players need no longer apply if the mlb commissioner approves the recall of the player. thus, freddy peralta and taylor williams could be candidates for recall as soon as today.
  21. aaron brooks traded to oakland to cash. jake thompson remains in the brewers' organization as he has been outrighted to the minor leagues.
  22. aaron brooks had his contract selected, and ariel hernandez was dfa'd and later outrighted to the minor leagues. brooks was later designated for assignment himself. if outrighted, brooks has the right to refuse the minor league assignment. nate orf was outrighted to the minor leagues. he has to accept the assignment. the brewers have seven days to decide what to do with jake thompson after designating him for assignment. if they successfully outright thompson, he will be forced to accept the minor league assignment. xavier cedeno, gio gonzalez and curtis granderson fill out the 40-man roster via trades. cedeno has one more year of club control and is out of minor league options. gonzalez and granderson will be free agents at season's end.
  23. for those promotions, you need two spots to open up on the 40-man. who is jettisoned?
  24. things may be about to get interesting . . .
