News and Notes

Busy week for the Bravos, with lots of stuff happening including Jaylen Brutus coming off a quick injured list stint for some sore shoulders. The rotation needs stability badly so I chose to put him back in the minors in lieu of a rehab assignment, which was huge mistake. In his first game back after a month off, he ruptured a tendon on his finger and he will be out for 3 months, which is effectively the rest of the season.

I fired my scout after seeing that he highly favors ability and hired Barry Rawlings who has comparable ratings but highly favors tools. I am also hoping that he is somehow tied in with the company that makes baseballs to help give us an edge, but you can’t ask something like that in an interview. Or so my lawyer has told me.

My 37 year old backup catcher has decided to complain about not getting enough playing time… He really proved me wrong in game 35...

Highlights

Game 35’s win was pretty spectacular with the Bravos entering the bottom of the 9th losing 2-4. The team fought back with the following sequence:
Marin: Hit by pitch
Schmid: Single
Jones: Ground out (advanced runners)
Painter: Strikes out (nice)
Seals: Single (2 RBI, tie game)
Leclerc: Walk off double

Lowlights

Losing Brutus really hurts as he was somewhat competent, which if better than most of our arms.

Looking Ahead

Starting to do some scouting for the draft, which is very exciting. There are some quality players coming up.

3 vs. Puebla (14-22, 10th)
3 vs. Toronto (25-11, 1st)
