J.R. Hopf

I wonder how he got the nickname J.R. if his given name is Michael John Hopf. If it wasn’t for streaky Eric Munson’s injury, he’d still be working out with the kids at Helena.

At least David Jonathan Drew kept the same initials and just switched the order.

He's extremely quick and good.

He could be one of those people who have more than one middle name. He was also born in the early 80s, and must see TV included a character named John Ross, son of Jock and Miss Ellie:

Can we please

Put Lucroy up to high A at least. It seems like he has two hits every day.

Featured Poll

Poll
Who is the Brewers' top prospect?
  • Brett Lawrie - Cana-DUH!
  • Mat Gamel - A great pure hitter who could potentially play a position of need.
  • Alcides Escobar - The Brewers sorely need his defensive wizardry and contact-hitting approach. He also solves the 3B hole by shifting J.J. over.
  • Jonathan Lucroy - The best catching prospect in the system by virtue of the fact that he can actually catch. His hitting numbers at Brevard are very good on the face of it, but even better after accounting for Space Coast Stadium.
  • Angel Salome - He's leading a Huntsville team that's loaded with prospects in all three slash stats, and he has the tools to be a good defensive catcher.
  • Jeremy Jeffress - The only real pitching prospect in a sea of hitters, Jeffress could potentially ease the pain of losing two aces by blossoming into one himself.
  • Carlos George - Hey, Derek Jeter can't play defense either.
