Spring training action continues today with the Brewers headed to Surprise to take on the Kansas City Royals. We will get our first look at one of last year\u2019s breakout stars, Chad Patrick, as he takes the mound first this afternoon. Across from him will be 2025 All-Star Kris Bubic.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a good lineup day if you\u2019re interested in the cream of the Brewers\u2019 minor league crop. Jes\u00fas Made, Cooper Pratt, Brock Wilken, Jeferson Quero, and Luis Lara are all in the lineup (with Made at second base and Pratt at shortstop) as many of the team\u2019s vets get the privilege of not traveling the 40 miles to Surprise on a Sunday afternoon. We will see four \u201cmajor leaguers\u201d at the top of the lineup, though: Luis Rengifo plays third and leads off, Garrett Mitchell is in center and batting second, Gary S\u00e1nchez is batting third and playing as the designated hitter, and Akil Baddoo is in left field and batting fourth.<\/p>\n
The Brewers will also get to say hi to an old friend today: Isaac Collins is batting leadoff for Kansas City. No Bobby Witt Jr. in the lineup, but several other prominent Royals are there, including Jonathan India, Vinnie Pasquantino, and Jac Caglianone.<\/p>\n
A couple of notable names are scheduled to follow Patrick out of the Brewer bullpen this afternoon, with the most interesting being Trevor Megill, who hasn\u2019t pitched in the Cactus League yet this spring. Also slated to pitch this afternoon are Grant Anderson, Craig Yoho, Peter Strzelecki, and Jacob Waguespack.<\/p>\n
No TV today, unfortunately, but you can catch the game on the radio. First pitch at 2:05 p.m. CT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Spring training action continues today with the Brewers headed to Surprise to take on the Kansas City Royals.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":600657,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2387],"tags":[5,936,2123,55,2596,2595,72545,4,252],"class_list":{"0":"post-600656","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-kansas-city-royals","8":"tag-baseball","9":"tag-kansas","10":"tag-kansas-city","11":"tag-kansas-city-royals","12":"tag-kansascity","13":"tag-kansascityroyals","14":"tag-milwaukee-brewers-discussions","15":"tag-mlb","16":"tag-royals"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116156569164285783","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/600656","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=600656"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/600656\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/600657"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=600656"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=600656"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=600656"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
