DSL Brewers-1 pulled off a split in their 2-game set against DSL Texas Blue.

In the opener, 16-year old RHP Manuel Rodriguez was solid again (5 IP, 2 R (1 ER), 1 BB, 3 Ks), but the offense went 0-for-9 with runners in scoring position and stranded 8 runners (vs. 3 runners for Texas) in a 2-1 loss.

The team managed to load the bases with one out against Texas' 22-year old closer (unfair!) in the final inning, but couldn't punch the tying run across.

Commencing the second game without three of their most consistent offensive contributors (Luis Lara, Edgardo Ordonez, Arnys Rodriguez) was a bold strategy, but it worked thanks to great pitching and no errors in a 2-1 extra inning victory.

18-year old LHP Jhofez Mejias was excellent in his last relief outing, so earned his first start in eight appearances and didn't disappoint (4 IP, 1 R, 4 H, 1 BB, 3 Ks).

19-year old RHP Hamlet Vasquez followed with three scoreless innings (3 IP, 0 R, 3 H, 1 BB, 3 Ks).

The Brewers' 2nd hit of the game came off the bat of 16-year old 3B Gery Holguin (1-for-2, 2 walks, 2 RBIs) and was clutch, tying the game 1-1 in the bottom of the 6th inning.

With 2-on, 1-out in the bottom of the 7th inning, the Brewers brought in Lara as a pinch hitter to try to walk it off, but unfortunately he struck out while the lead runner was also thrown out trying for 3rd base.

In the extra inning, 18-year old RHP Dikember Sanchez got the call, striking out two batters and not allowing Manfred's ghost to move.

That set the stage for another potential Brewers' walk-off, which they got...literally. Three walks (the second intentional) brought home the winning run, with Holguin again collecting the RBI.

Let me again remind us all of undeniably and absolutely one of 2022's most consistent performers in ALL the Brewers Minor Leagues. Honestly, never a drop off to date:

If we’re trying to guess which ACL player (if any) is being promoted to fill Chourio’s spot in Carolina tomorrow, I’d put my money on OF Eduarqui Fernandez, given that he’s not in the ACL Blue lineup tonight, whereas OF Jace Avina is leading off and playing center field.

Scrolling BRef on a slow night for the minor & major leaguers and noticed that Tyler Black ended his season with more BBs (45) than Ks (44).

Hendry Mendez is almost there for Carolina with 48 BB / 53 K through 331 PAs (& still doesn’t turn 19 for three months).

Small sample sleeper to maybe keep an eye on is Jose Caballero (listed 5’10” / 140) with 12 BB / 10 K through 81 PAs in the ACL.

While his time in Wisconsin skews his overall stats, Areinamo is also even with 17 of each in the ACL.

I’m currently ‘most’ interested in Mendez’s incredibly productive July batting lead-off. 69 AB’s and a 5k:3bb ratio (?!) yet hitting 0.348 w a 0.871 OPS. Gimme that sizzle!

Tyler’s injury was simply put: a major bummer. He’s such a likable prospect. So much Big League to his baseball tool kit.

has anyone seen or head much of anything about Jesus Rivero pitcher? bad ERA this year but 30 k's in 17 innings and batters only hitting .161 against him...his obvious problem is 17 walks in 17 innings....young guy wonder, arm to keep an eye on for me

Yujanyer Herrera has been stellar through five innings in his last two outings. Bad sixth innings have been statistically masking the real strides he has taken.
