A good first baseman doesn’t miss as many plays as Miller has in his short time at 1B for the Brewers . Maybe the stats are inaccurate or misleading, or he has been much worse for the Brewers than he has been in the past. 

He's missed like 2-3 scoops. On the other hand, he gets to a lot more balls that the average 1st baseman, including Rowdy, doesn't get to. Scoops are just one part of the overall defensive profile at 1st.

Rowdy Tellez is the one who's a defensive liability at 1B...

There can be more than one.

Sure. But not Miller. There's nearly 1000 innings worth of evidence out there. A missed scoop here and there doesn't change that. Adames makes bad throws from time to time (as he did here) and he's a GG caliber SS. More you get the ball, as 1B and SS do, the more opportunities for mistakes. 

[Brewcrew82]

There's no reason why Turang should stay put at 1B here with two outs. Go for that extra run.

The Phillies have the worst hair in baseball.

Hader would make a good Phillie

Hader's hair is like Sampson's compared to these Phillies guys.

[Brewcrew82]

Ughh. We just have such a hard time piecing hits together.

I’d say scoops are a fairly important part of the overall defensive profile for a 1B

Maybe we can send them Bowman from our minor leagues for a bat

Payamps is electric!

Yeah, and he's missed what? 3? 4?. How many more plays has he made at 1B, particularly by getting to balls and making outs that the average first baseman doesn't. It's just that that doesn't get magnified like a missed scoop does.

Payamps=filthy

Pay-freakin'-amps!

Thank the baseball gods for Payamps. 9 pitches.

3 more years.

Remember when the common theme was that the bullpen was going to be bad? Ooops.

A throw in with Contreras for Estury Ruiz … Arnold needs an extension

[jason21nl]

Have to score him 

[RobertCrawley]

Who's that guy in Wiemer's uniform?

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Gotta cash in the 9th Inning insurance run opportunity.

[Brock Beauchamp]

I've been watching the game but hanging out on the Cubs forum (shame on me, I know)... apparently Pro Sports Daily is shutting down so we're getting a bunch of new users over there.

But hey, Joey Wiemer!

I never would've dreamed the bullpen would be so stellar this year.

[RobertCrawley]

That was NOT a strike.

[Brock Beauchamp]

An insurance run sure would be nice here.
