Last week we looked at the position players that will be assigned to the San Antonio Missions to the season. Today let’s highlight a few pitchers that will start in Triple A and could make an impact with the Milwaukee Brewers this season.
Jimmy Nelson – the dark horse candidate for comeback player of the year, Nelson is still at extended Spring Training and will most likely be assigned to the Missions to make a few starts before potentially moving back to the major leagues. The Brewers are taking it slow with Nelson and don’t have a reason to rush him back with the starting rotation looking strong to start the season and depth available.
