In 6 games against the Cubs, the Brewers have scored 9 runs. Nice.

Do you know what the injury concerns are with Daniels? I saw on Twitter that he fell due to injury.

From the not very obscure candidates: Miguel Amaya, Cory Abbott and Erling Moreno (whoops) were my picks. Fair enough. Any out of the woodwork, unexpected guys you like? Kevonte Mitchell. I've predicted a breakout for him for like 3 straight years, maybe I'll eventually get it right. I also thought one of the many Latin American middle infielders in A-ball (Narea, Peguero, Monasterio or Perlaza) would separate from the pack and establish themselves as future big league utility guy/2nd division second baseman. I thought Peyton Remy and Tyler Thomas might break out as a relievers and move quickly through the system. But Remy is stuck in Extended and Thomas is starting for South Bend. Not sure how out of the woodwork those guys are for your taste.

http://m.mlb.com/prospects/2018?list=draft MLB Pipeline updated their top 100 and sadly, NSBB favorite Jonathan India is now at 10. Admittedly they have Alec Brohm at 11, which seems low.

Underwood with 5 scoreless, 5 Ks to only 1 walk. 18 K and 2 BB in 18 innings this season. I believe the kids would call this post a subtweet of TT.

Roquan is a pretty nice defensive player at a position of greater need than Fitzpatrick but I really like Fitzpatrick. He better not end up a Packer.

Fitzpatrick or trade down, I hope.

He is back in the lineup for Game 2.

He did BP. I’m not sure I’d be happy if he came back sooner than today, to be honest.

One reason you might compare them is that they were linked together during their draft. After Jeff Hoffman had TJS, Conforto became the most popular Cubs pick in mocks and was normally considered the best college bat in the draft. Schwarber only gained steam in media in the days right before the draft.

Miguel Amaya and Jhonny Bethencourt both hit 2 doubles and a home run today for South Bend to salvage a pretty crappy day on the farm. Amaya has an .847 OPS with a 16.7% K% and 13.3% BB% as a 19-year old catcher in full season A-ball.

Puig has a .500 OPS. Forsythe is at .507, Pederson .616 and Seager at .670. Wow.

Heh, Bauer pitched in 3 of Cleveland's losses in the World Series.

The top prospect in baseball.
