Triple-A Nashville (40-27)

The Sounds went 2-3 this week against the Norfolk Tides. Nashville is now 13 games above .500 and half a game up in the International League West.

Pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski (Brewers’ No. 4) threw five no-hit innings in his major league debut. Miz ended up with four walks but looked in control most of the time. He brought his best stuff, too. I don’t know how you hit this:

Misiorowski came back out for the sixth but appeared to roll his ankle after a 2-0 pitch to the Cardinals’ Victor Scott II. He wasn’t limping after the game and, per Adam McCalvy, officially left due to right calf and quad cramping. Miz is slated to start again on Wednesday, this time against the Cubs, so hopefully this is the last time you read about him in the Minor League Roundup.

Logan Henderson (No. 12) went 5 1⁄3 innings, allowing nine hits but just a single earned run. Nothing more needs to be said about Henderson. He’s proven he’s ready for the majors. Hendo is only in the minors at this point because of the pitching depth that the Brewers have.

Freddy Zamora put up the most impressive slash line on the Sounds this week — .353/.389/.412. Zamora is hitting .295 on the season, albeit with almost no power to speak of. The 26-year-old middle infielder, drafted in the second round in 2020, has just seven doubles and a singular home run this year.

C/2B Anthony Seigler had a bit of a down week for the first time in over a month. The 25-year-old Seigler slashed .214/.389/.500 in 14 at-bats. He’s still hitting .299 on the season with seven home runs, 28 RBIs and 17 stolen bases. While Caleb Durbin continues to pick up the pace at the plate, the Brewers could still use some infield depth. As I’ve said in this column each of the past few weeks, Seigler has earned a shot in the majors.

Another potential depth option is Bobby Dalbec, who homered three times on the week. The corner infielder/outfielder went 7-for-22 (.318) with a team-leading five RBIs. The 29-year-old Dalbec was a highly ranked prospect at one point, so maybe he can turn things around with Nashville, much as Daz Cameron did earlier this season. Dalbec came up as a 1B/3B, although he’s played more games in right field than at first or third since joining the Sounds. That may be due to Nashville’s roster construction as opposed to an inability to handle the infield.

Jeferson Quero went 5-for-19 (.263) in his first full week back with Nashville. Quero suffered a labrum injury after just one plate appearance with the Sounds in 2024. The 22-year-old catcher, a stud defender, is the Brewers’ top prospect not named Jesus Made.

Quero will be a candidate for a call-up if he continues to play well. William Contreras has reportedly been dealing with a broken finger, which has caused his production at the plate to suffer compared to expectations. Eric Haase, as much as I love him, isn’t going to block the Brewers’ No. 2 overall prospect.

Tyler Black (No. 7) went 1-for-11 in his first three games with Nashville. More on Black next week.

Finally, Milwaukee acquired 1B Andrew Vaughn from the White Sox in exchange for RHP Aaron Civale. Vaughn will debut with the Sounds next week. I wrote about how Vaughn could ultimately find success with Milwaukee here.

Looking ahead to next week, Nashville will face off against the Iowa Cubs in a six-game series beginning Tuesday.

Double-A Biloxi (38-25)

Biloxi split a six-game series against the Chattanooga Lookouts. The Shuckers now have a run differential of +71, which leads the Southern League by almost 40 runs.

1B/3B Luke Adams (No. 9) went 5-for-22 with two more home runs. The 21-year-old Adams now sports a .924 OPS through 184 at-bats this season.

Brock Wilken (No. 18) also added a couple home runs to his league-leading total. In true Wilken fashion, seven of his eight hits this week went for extra bases. Wilken is hitting just .224 on the season but continues to lead all of Double-A with 17 home runs.

1B/3B Mike Boeve (No. 6) went 2-for-18 on the week. Both of his hits were home runs. He is still slashing .245/.344/.409 since returning from a right labrum procedure.

Cooper Pratt (No. 3) had another bounce-back week, going 6-for-14 at the plate. Pratt had been struggling — posting a line of .198/.286/.284 in the month of May — but has clearly been seeing the ball better in recent weeks. Pratt is now hitting .310 in the month of June.

Luis Lara (No. 21) went 7-for-25 (.261) with a couple of doubles. Biloxi’s speedy centerfielder is pretty much a pure contact hitter and profiles as a defensive fourth outfielder type in the majors. Lara is now hitting .253/.351/.336 with 22 stolen bases.

Coleman Crow impressed in his only start this week, going six innings (2 ER) with six strikeouts. Crow has notched 24 strikeouts in his last three starts (17 IP, 2 ER). The 24-year-old righty, a 28th-round pick of the Angels back in 2019, now sports a 2.51 ERA on the season. He was acquired for Adrian Houser and Tyrone Taylor last offseason. Nothing’s official yet, but word on the street is we’ll be seeing him in Nashville next week.

Brett Wichrowski (No. 13) had one of the funnier stat lines you’ll ever see in professional baseball. Wichrowski allowed nine hits and 10 runs in 5 2⁄3 IP, but only one of those runs was earned. He made two appearances on the week, giving up six runs (one earned) during the first and four runs (none earned) in the second. His ERA is now down to 2.76 in eight starts this season, although his WHIP has skyrocketed to 1.50.

K.C. Hunt (No. 24) gave up four earned runs in 5 2⁄3 innings. Hunt’s ERA is now up to 4.53 on the season. The 24-year-old righty has alternated great starts with mediocre ones as he continues to adjust to Double-A.

Lefty Tate Kuehner (2.61 ERA) went five innings without allowing an earned run.

The Shuckers will take on the Knoxville Smokies next week in a six-game series.

High-A Wisconsin (33-30)

The Timber Rattlers went 4-2 this week against the Great Lakes Loons. Wisconsin is now heating up after a rough start to the season, going 13-5 over the last three weeks.

Things got a little chippy in this series. Benches cleared after RHP Yerlin Rodriguez threw at Kendall George not once, but twice. Interesting, especially because there wasn’t a clear incident that led up to this. Rodriguez isn’t known for his control, but it certainly looked intentional to me. Judge for yourself:

SS Jadher Areinamo (No. 23) went 11-for-23 (.458) this week. Arenaimo now has an OPS of .819 on the season. He’s been one of Wisconsin’s best hitters each of the last two seasons and should be a candidate for a call-up soon, especially with Jesus Made and Luis Peña behind him in Carolina.

First baseman Blake Burke (No. 16) went 4-for-18 (.222) on the week. Despite the down week, he’s been very impressive this season. Burke leads the Timber Rattlers in batting average and on-base percentage (minimum 100 at-bats).

The reason I had to include the 100 at-bats caveat is C Marco Dinges, promoted a couple of weeks ago from Single-A Carolina. Dinges is now hitting .333 in 80 at-bats in High-A, with three home runs and an .862 OPS. I expected to see a bit of a learning curve for Dinges, a 2024 fourth-round pick who was named the Brewers’ April Minor League Player of the Month with Single-A Carolina. Apparently, he doesn’t need one.

Twenty-two-year-old SS Eduardo Garcia went 5-for-18 with a home run. Garcia leads the Timber Rattlers in home runs, with 11. He’s been consistently impressive at the plate this season, slashing .277/.361/.509 with 29 extra-base hits.

Nineteen-year-old Juan Baez (No. 26) went 6-for-21. He’s still hitting .233 with a .577 OPS on the season, although his numbers over the last month look a little better: .258/.333/.301 over 93 at-bats. Baez has no pop at this point — he only has five extra-base hits (0 HR) all year.

Tyson Hardin, the Brewers’ Minor League Pitcher of the Month for April, went five innings while allowing four runs (two runs). He’s had a couple down outings in a row, but the stats still look pretty great: 2.34 ERA, 9.68 K/9, 1.4 BB/9. Hardin has yet to allow a home run in 61 1⁄3 career innings as a professional.

Other pitching standouts this week for the Timber Rattlers: Ryan Birchard (7 IP, 1 ER, 8 K) and Jaron DeBerry (5 2⁄3 IP, 2 ER, 7 K).

Birchard’s had two impressive outings in a row. He did walk nine batters, which is … less than ideal. Birchard’s ERA is only 4.01, but his career BB/9 (6.75) makes 2023 Jacob Misiorowski look like Greg Maddux.

Next week, Wisconsin will face off against the West Michigan Whitecaps in a six-game series.

Single-A Carolina (35-26)

Carolina went 0-6 against the Lynchburg Hillcats this week. The Mudcats are suddenly five games back of first in the Carolina League, although they remain nine games over .500.

This is your weekly reminder to find a way to watch a Mudcats game (free to watch on Bally Sports’ website). They’re young, feature a ton of the Brewers’ high-ceiling and top-ranked prospects, and put up runs. Carolina seriously might be one of the most stacked Brewers affiliates ever.

Jesús Made, now ranked as the Brewers’ No. 1 prospect per MLB Pipeline, slashed .318/.444/.500 because of course he did. Those of you who read this column regularly already know how special of a prospect Made is. Numbers like that are expected at this point.

The 18-year-old shortstop has been hitting to all fields, hitting for power, and playing great defense. Milwaukee might want to see what he can do in High-A sometime before the end of the season.

Infield prospect Luis Peña (No. 5) put up a .292/.320/.417 line, including his sixth home run of the year. Peña now has an .876 OPS on the season. He’d be the top infield prospect in most organizations. The Brewers are blessed to have him, Pratt, and Made in the same farm system.

Nineteen-year-old SS/3B Filippo Di Turi isn’t currently ranked, but he probably should be. Di Turi went 6-for-22 (.273) on the week. He’s been a consistent source of offense for the Mudcats, with an .801 OPS and eight home runs on the year.

Put simply, Carolina had the roughest week of their season against the league-leading Hillcats. Other than Made, Peña, and Di Turi, no Mudcat hit over .150. Braylon Payne (No. 10) hit a home run but struck out 12 times in 21 at-bats. This was an extreme outlier week for most of Carolina’s players, so not a lot to analyze in general.

Carolina will face the Columbia Fireflies next week.

Player of the Week

Marco Dinges. I already said most of what I wanted to say about Dinges up in the Timber Rattlers’ portion of the column, but — to reiterate — he’s been insanely impressive. Dinges, drafted in the fourth round of the 2024 draft, has done nothing but rake in A-ball. He was hitting .353 with a 1.076 OPS in 85 at-bats with Single-A Carolina. He’s 80 at-bats into his time with Wisconsin and the numbers have hardly even dropped off — .325 batting average, .862 OPS. The Crew already have William Contreras and Jeferson Quero, but watch out: Dinges is coming.

Brewers’ C Prospect Marco Dinges was highly impressive last week. Threw out multiple base runners(including Asbel Gonzalez) with pops in the 1.9-sec range. Makes a ton of contact w/good approach & plus EVs. Smoked a couple of doubles and a homer. Dinges is a legit C prospect. pic.twitter.com/TykWOVzy1V
