Per Josh's blog:
Saw that Mat Gamel got hurt during his callup which could mean that Taylor Green will be replacing him in the AFL thus running my count of AFL guys to 7.

Our guys are playing for the West Oahu Canefires. Follow the link...boxscores will be there, but sometimes a little slow getting there.

Fantastic news about Brantley.

The more playing time he gets - the better. He still has some developing to do, and missing time this past year with injury did not help.

alright maybe I'm just impatient, but I check my email everday for Arizona Fall League roster updates, and they're never brewer- related.

Can we assume that Lorenzo Cain, being on the replacement...

Argh - since Lorenzo Cain was said to be on the replacement roster, does that mean he's filling the last hole now?
I guess I'm a tad impatient, I mean, we do have a whole month until things get under-way, but there's at least 20 roster spots open, and I'm just excited to see who fills 'em. We COULD still send an A ball guy there too, right?
Maybe we can hit them up for a fan-vote to get the last guy elected :-)

Mike has some personal matters to take care of (not serious) and has been officially pulled out of the AFL. Nothing to do with the trade I promise, and yes I did infact ship his stuff to arizona so ill have fun getting it sent back.

Despite all the "fun" discussing Brantley's soon to be winter whereabouts, it appears that adding two OF's to Hawaii means the Indians will take Brantley or Cain. The Brewers know that and added Logan Schafer with the much deserving Caleb Gindl to the OF.

Schafer has taken over the CF spot in WV with ease in his first year and is probably being sent to Hawaii to improve whatever hitting deficiecies the Brewers see. You have to Believe Gindl and Schafer are in their...

If Brantley is so hard to believe, then who else would you like to see go?

What's the deal with the taxi squad? I've always found that to be really strange...why not just have everyone active? Teams can still "request" certain players get more time...I mean, I cannot believe it's an intense atmosphere.

Ken Spindler and the Brewers' media relations department have announced that the following players will be the Brewers' representatives in the Hawaiian Fall League:

West Oahu CaneFires:

OF Caleb Gindl
OF Logan Schafer
LHP Chris Cody
LHP Mike Ramlow and
Manager Mike Guerrero (from Brevard County).

Also, an updated Arizona Fall...

I don't think anyone needs to be replaced for Brantley to come to Arizona. On the rosters I have, there's a "TBA MIL" at the bottom, under outfielders.
Brae Wright is a taxi squad guy for us, only activated on Wednesdays and Saturdays. 6 other teams (Cincinnati, Cleveland, San Diego, St.Louis, Philadelphia, and Houston) have 8 guys on the roster with one being a taxi guy, and the Dodgers have 9, with 2 taxi guys.
I guess Brantley's our TBA - when can I...

I wasn't trying to suggest that Brantley is a "replacement" like Cain is just offering a possible reason as to why his name isn't listed on the roster at this point in time. If it is simply an error, than so be it, but I wouldn't doubt if it is due to a paperwork formality.

Re: Arizona and Hawaii Fall Leagues -- Latest: Official Hawaii List, AFL Updates

Mike is not a replacement, Cain is on the replacement roster, Mike's going.

From Mass above:

By the way, we believe Michael Brantley would replace Mat Gamel on the roster if Mat was in Milwaukee (first AFL game is October 7th).

Again, this scenario makes the most sense to me, as I don't think the Brewers bumped Gamel up to AAA just to get his feet wet in preparation for '09. He'll be in Milwaukee by early next week, and Brantley will take his place in the AFL.

I just do not recall any players not being on the list that go, other than injury replacements.

We're hearing some rumblings from West Virginia and elsewhere that some players may have already been told they are under consideration for Hawaiian League spots.

Thought it would be interesting to speculate on who may fill the three spots there, and we'll say four spots (for now) in Arizona. Keep in mind starting pitchers who haven't missed a start all season will be a tough sell, which is why I don't think you'll see Evan Anundsen in Hawaii, for instance.
