Merrill to 7 day concussion IL ... Brooks called up from EP and fills the open slot on the 40 man.

Brooks has a .120 avg in 25 ABs in SF in 2024. But, In El Paso this season , he has a .311 avg, .411 OBP, .590 SLG, 1.001 OPS. 14 HR, 54 RBI, 41 BB. Let's hope he can bring his success from El Paso to MLB.

I thought we would see Tirso if Merrill had to miss time. It's slightly surprising that they went with Brooks. He hasn't seen much time in the outfield. He does seem to have a little more pop in his bat than Tirso. I guess Sheets will be the everyday guy in LF in the short term.

I guess they go with Sheets full time in LF (he was an OF for CWS ... just not good defensively). Lockridge / Wade (L) will probably split CF. That may leave DH with Campusano or Iglesias / Brooks (L).

I guess Ornelas just had little impact with his bat in EP (even with a decent average ... but also he did not show well in the ML earlier). Brooks ... in the minors ... showed some power but maybe more importantly some good on-base skills. Worth the look given the alternatives at hand. He has had about 300 games as an OF in his minor league career ... mainly LF and RF.

They held this time for the win snapping a 3-game losing streak.

Privetta was outstanding pitching 4 no hit innings before giving up only 2 hits in 7 IP. The BP held this time.

Tatis goes 4 for 5 and 8 for 11 in the series. Cronenworth and Diaz hit a HR.

Let's hope the Dodgers lose today.

On to L.A. for 4 games.

GO PADRES!
