Your 2021 Biloxi Shuckers

Brewer Fanatic Staff

We will begin to see some formal minor league roster announcements soon. The formal announcement will come directly from the Shuckers, 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 Tuesday 5/4!

 

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 2021" threads to post and link to feature stories, including audio and video, 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 do not speculate on any player releases. Brewers Player Development or MiLB.com will update us formally.

What do we make of 18 year old Jhonnys Cabrera starting the year at AA? Is this kid a legit prospect, or more of a situation where we just don't have enough catching at the upper levels of our system right now? Just seems odd that they'd send an 18 year old kid up there if he wasn't ready. Unless if this is a short term move and they are just waiting for someone else to get healthy.

 

And, is it just me or does it seem like Braden Webb has been in the organization about 8 years by now. The year off last year is probably just exaggerating my feelings with him though.

I’m probably high board on Cabrera and even I can’t see this as being anything other than waiting for Maile to go back to AAA so Diaz can drop back to AA, especially given none of the other members of that DSL team got full-season spots. Daniel Castillo’s placement feels that way too.
