Gamel

Looks like the cubs do not want Gamel in the majors this year. They paid a hurricane to stop him.

Hurricane-paying bastards

"I will agree that the attitude [at BCB] is ridiculous and they have done so much to instigate animosity and then block us from responding. Real mature!"

Nieves

What a game.

Another good start for Bobby Bramhall, and an encouraging one from Dan Merklinger, the Brewers’ 6th-round pick last year. He’s a little old for the Sally League, but he has a great K rate for a lefty.

Brent Brewer just keeps going up, too. I’m thinking I’ll update the prospect list for the next off-day, Thursday.

Arizona Brewers

They had four errors in 3 innings before the game was called!

It was called on account of "wet grounds"

Wet from the tears of the innocent children whose eyes will never be able to view baseball in a romantic light again.

wow

That line is almost poetic. I smell sig-worthy.

Caleb Gindl

He was named BA’s Sally League Prospect of the Day:

West Virginia (Brewers) right fielder Caleb Gindl went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in a 4-1 win over Lexington (Astros). Gindl is riding an 11-game hitting streak that includes seven multi-hit games, and his advanced bat has helped him hit .345/.416/.545 since the all-star break, putting his line for the year at .306/.386/.478.
