2015-2016 Winter League Updates

Dominican Box Tuesday 11/3

 

Jason Rogers, again batting cleanup as the DH, had a nice game in his team's 4-0 win, going 3-for-4 with a double and RBI. Rogers is now 17-for-56 with a familiar .304 batting average.

Venezuela Box Tuesday 11/3

 

Hernan Perez, back at third base, 0-for-3 in his team's 3-2 loss.

5 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 4 K, 85 pitches (55 strikes), GB:FO 6:2

 

But for one rough outing, it's been a nice winter stretch (4.35 ERA, five starts) for Suter.

Loosely translated --

 

Caracas LHP Brent Suter was removed from the roster of 25 Aragua Tigers and sent to the restrictive list of 14 days, as planned.

 

The left-hander, who last started last night, must travel to the US to meet personal commitments, although there is a small chance that he may return, according to management.

 

His vacancy was filled with the right Evan Reed, which in principle will be used as a reliever.

 

Manager Eduardo Perez still has not announced who will take the place of Suter in the rotation.

Suter's MiLB Player Page documents his stat lines through five Venezuelan starts, plus we get another colorful picture of him (tuck in that shirt, bro!):

Actually, looking over Suter's 2015 game logs, that one rough outing in Venezuela was his only bad outing all year! Prior to that, he had never given up more than four earned runs in a game - and that happened over seven innings against Tacoma on August 19. It looks like he has put together a breakthrough season this year.

Venezuela Box Friday 11/5

 

We're down to just 35 players on the Brewers' 40-man roster, but the most recent addition, waiver claim via the White Sox RHP Junior Guerra, is just killing it through six winter ball starts.

 

Tonight's line:

 

7 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K, 99 pitches (65 strikes), GB:FO 8:4

 

Click the player link above for a reminder about his prior outings.

 

Would be sweet if the Brewers planned to try the soon-to-be 31-year-old as a starter (reminder: does have two minor league options left).

 

Maybe we'll get some overnight video.

Dominican Box Tuesday 11/10

 

RF Domingo Santana made his Licey team debut, batting 6th, and singled twice on a ground ball to LF, then a sharp grounder to right, in his first two AB's. He finished 2-for-4 with two K's and a stolen base.

 

Santana's teammate, 1B Jason Rogers, was 0-for-4 but drove in the game's only run in the 8th when he reached on a forceout, avoiding the double play. Nice hustle! Now 20-for-76 (.261), only four walks, 11 K's, 5 extra-base hits (four doubles, one HR).

Batting 3rd, RF Domingo Santana 2-for-5, two K's (single on a ground ball to center, single on line drive to left)

 

Cleanup DH Jason Rogers 1-for-4, run scored (single on a line drive to left)

 

Rogers lined into double plays in each of his first two at-bats -- unfair.

 

Their Licey club lost 6-5.

Dominican Box Thursday 11/12

 

Their club lost 5-0, but Brewers contributed, as Jason Rogers was 2-for-3 with a walk (one K) and Domingo Santana, DH'ing here, tripled in four AB's (one K). Rogers is batting .291 through 79 AB's (23 hits, five for extra bases).

 

Watch as Rogers threads the needle on this 3-6-3 double play, flashing a wry smile at the very end.

Dominican Box Friday 11/13

 

Friday the 13th a night to forget for RF Domingo Santana (0-for-4, three K's, error) and 1B Jason Rogers (0-for-4, two K's).

 

Santana has struck out in eight of 17 AB's thus far, but is 5-for-9 when he doesn't K.

 

Their club lost, 7-4.

Young Angel Ortega made his second Puerto Rico appearance, but only for a defensive 9th inning at third base.
