Wilson getting hit hard.

after getting a hit, Suwinski gets picked off first.

Makes up for that by throwing out Yelich at the plate. Perfect throw.

3-0 Brewers

Cruz (.197, OBP .248) bats leadoff. Newman (.274, OBP .317) bats 7th. Sure is great that Shelton will be back next year.

Meanwhile Delay gets a hit to knock in a run.

Nice scoop by Chavis to get out of a bases loaded jam. Every time

Cruz throws to first I hold my breath

Going to repeat myself here.

After watching the rookies this year.

One to me stands out and that is Castro

I think he has the skill set of Marte in terms of power, speed, defense and arm.

He definitely is showing the potential to be a 20/20, 25/25 guy!

I don't why I didn't notice this before. Chavis just doesn't walk much and strikes out too much. OBP around 275 is too low.

He has to improve on his walks and his batting average to have value on offense. I think he has done well enough this season to have earned a chance to come back next season.

However, the Bucs should be looking to upgrade his spot on the roster (of course most other players on the team are in the same boat).
