2018-07-11: Brewers (Peralta) at Marlins (Straily) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-4 in 12 innings]

[wildcat83]

Can someone explain to me what managers signal from dugout to catchers? In the past when I've seen this I thought it was for inexperienced catchers. Is Holaday young? Are they calling pitches??

 

I've wondered this too, it happens a lot, and even with Pina. I thought at first defensive positioning but it's every pitch sometimes.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I know this is an extreme counterfactual and some of the players used to acquire others technically crossed paths, but imagine if we still had Gennett and Segura right now

 

Didn't one of the final roster spots in 2017 kind of come down to Gennett vs. Aguilar?

I was thinking that, too. It made total sense to part ways with them and I don't think anybody could have predicted the insane improvement they both showed (maaaaybe Segura), but it's still fun to think about.

[SRB]

He has started roughly 2/3 of the games at 2B, which means out of 92 games, he has been on the bench 30 of those games. That is not even close to a guy who has been given the 2B job the first half of the season.

 

That's the starting 2B job. He's lost playing time here and there, more often recently, because he has been bad.

 

He's started more games in the field than newly-minted All Star Jesus Aguilar.

[topper09er]

There have been 5 Brewers in the All-Star final vote, 3 have won and 2 have taken second place...can you name them?

Corey Hart?

[MoreTrife]

Anderson is good.

[adambr2]

I couldn't help but wonder to myself, "Would Keon have caught it?"

[SRB]

Anderson is good.

 

That's why they let him call the NBA games.

Jenkins and Hart were the other winners. Don't know who the losers were.

Pretty sure Jenkins won it one year as well.

Correct.

 

2nd place finishers were 2006 and 2016

[xisxisxis]

So that's what moving the runner over/getting him in looks like....

[topper09er]

Looks like now at 3/5 we have the highest final vote winning percentage in MLB history.

 

Cards, Reds and Blue Jays are all at 50%

Nope, Jesus has started one more game than him... Actually 2 counting tonight.

 

 

Shaw 82

Yelich 74

Cain 72

Jesus 64

Villar 62

[adambr2]

Shouldn't be a tie...we need to be cashing in our chances.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Well Freddy has given up a couple runs.

 

Better get him fitted for that Oriole cap.

[markedman5]

Freddy not fooling anyone now......command an issue

Oops, Segura was the first ever final vote Mariner, so they are 100%, but since he only won due to Brewer fans there is a bit of an * on him

[82brewcrew82]

Freddy not fooling anyone now......command an issue

I was told he's doing fine, nothing to worry about.

[TURBO]

This might be Freddy's last inning, if he can get through it...

[adambr2]

Come on Jesus. Had him dead to rights. Little things.

Correct.

 

2nd place finishers were 2006 and 2016

I've got Koskie in 2006 and Braun in 2016.

[topper09er]

Tag the base not the runner, Jesus

[topper09er]

 

 

I've got Koskie in 2006 and Braun in 2016.

 

Braun correct.

 

2006 was Cappy, he ended up being selected as an injury replacement anyways
