Cardinals (Liberatore) vs Brewers (Misiorowski): 5/25/26, 1:10pm

[willie key]

That last curve ball by Miz was ridiculous 

 

maybe Arnold doesn’t want our minor leaguers ti be exposed  so he can get good trade value?

Xavier Edwards or Otto Lopez of the Marlins were rumored last year and either would still make a fantastic addition now.

Why wouldn’t we give our top prospects a chance rather than trade one or more for an “okay” MLB player like Edwards or Lopez?

This thread is kind of unbelievable. Brewers have a dominant win on the back of Misiorowski throwing another dominant start to extend the division lead to 2.5 and push the team to 11 games over .500 and like 40% of the comments are complaining about Perkins who even after an 0-4 day is still hitting way better against LHP than Frelick is this year which including Lockridge being injured are the only reasons he's on the roster.

Could he get a two inning save?

I believe the rule is three innings required for a save if the lead is less than three runs when pitcher enters game

Lopez has been worth 2.4 WAR this year, 9 WAR the last 2 1/3rd seasons, is hitting .337 and plays a high end SS, and he’s just “okay”? Tough crowd.

Lopez is basically what Ortiz would be if Ortiz could actually hit, too. He’s just a Marlin and not a Yankee or Dodger so he doesn’t get the press.

I hadn’t checked their stats for 2026. Maybe Lopez would be a great addition after all. 💪

That is what fans do: gripe about stuff they cannot control! Personally I don't feel like Perkins is going anywhere until Lockridge gets back. I like Perkins as a person, at least as far as you can tell from his media persona. But it does mystify me how he can go in two years from a serviceable option against LHP to someone you probably wouldn't hesitate to have a healthy Woodruff pinch hit for.

I could get behind that for the right price.

He went on bereavement last summer and has not been the same since. It was like a switch flipped, 

So while I may not want him on the 26 anymore I just hope personally he’s going okay.

Great person and I agree that I hope he’s ok, but playing on a mlb roster is not a participation trophy.

i’ve known some great talent that goes on and make $300 million, and some that never get more than a cup of coffee in their career.

fact is, at this point, he’s not a mlb worthy player

I posted a couple times about Perkins, and Im thrilled at how well the Brewers have been playing.  It doesn't have to be one or the other.  For example, Misiorowski, Ashby, Harrison, etc. have been great and their pitching success has brought me joy as a fan.   And I also want Woodford replaced.   Just because they are in 1st doesn't mean they can't improve.

I thought it was 4 runs for a 2 inning save, and protecting any size lead for 3 or more innings
