Tyler Thornburg

I might be missing a joke here, but that's exactly what they've been doing (as far as drafting) for the past 3-5 seasons.

 

I think he's suggesting the Brewers look for pitchers who are being undervalued simply because they are under 6' 2" but have the stats or other indicators that they are being undervalued. I don't think the Brewers have been targeting under 6' 2" guys in the draft.

I thought he might be talking about Beane and the A's.

thornburg had held right-handed batters hitless over 38 at-bats before eugenio suarez opened the ninth inning last night with a double. it was the third-longest such streak in club history.
