Brewers (Misiorowski) vs Rockies (TBD): 6/6/26, 8:10pm

[Frisbee Slider]

Tanner Gordon was originally slated to start tonight for Colorado but he was placed on the injured list yesterday. Rockies are TBD, so far.

Jacob Misiorowski gets the ball for Milwaukee. The Miz makes his first start in June after being the second best pitcher in the National League last month 🙂

Drohan is tomorrow’s announced starter.  Gasser starts Tuesday in Las Vegas.

With the thin air the velocity for Miz will be even more but won't see that since tracked at release point.

Should be a fun game!

Hope my boy Tate Kuehner gets the call up today. I wanted to see him this year but not cause of a million LHP injuries. The only other LHP in AAA are Koenig (still rehabbing), Drew Rom, and Mark Manfredi who was just recently called up to AAA.

could see it being Rom though since he’s already been working out of the pen

Perfect day for a low pitch count no hitter from the Miz

[willie key]

This is me being a moper but I just have a feeling miz gets touched up a little today.  Playing in Colorado sucks.   Let’s hope we score for him today

Was curious how this year's seemingly boom or bust Brewers offense compared to some of our previous units during these past 537 games where the Brewers have won the 2nd most games in MLB while scoring the 6th most runs despite a middling 101 wRC+ that ranks 17th during that time. Being thee best team on the bases (+42.2 BsR) and one of the more prolific with RISP at 5,686 PA (1st) of 118 wRC+ (2nd) for 1,913 RBI (3rd) over that stretch have undoubtedly been keys in outscoring their wRC+ rank by eleven leaderboard spots and their cumulative BaseRuns estimate by around +0.20 runs per game over these last 537 games.

In 2023 the Brewers had a 93 wRC+ (21st) and scored 4.49 R/G (17th). By my count they had 69 games (42.6% of team total) scoring three or fewer runs with a record of 16 W - 53 L (.232 W%) in those games. That leaves 93 games (57.4% of team total) where they scored four or more runs going 76 W - 17 L (.826 W%) in those games.

In 2024 the Brewers had a 105 wRC+ (11th) and scored 4.80 R/G (6th). By my count they had 70 games (43.2% of team total) scoring three or fewer runs with a record of 22 W - 48 L (.314 W%) in those games. That leaves 92 games (46.8% of team total) where they scored four or more runs going 71 W - 21 L (.772 W%) in those games.

In 2025 the Brewers had a 107 wRC+ (9th) and scored 4.98 R/G (3rd). By my count they had 64 games (39.5% of team total) scoring three or fewer runs with a record of 16 W - 48 L (.250 W%) in those games. That leaves 98 games (60.5% of team total) scoring four or more runs going 81 W - 17 L (.827 W%) in those games.

So far this year they are at a 101 wRC+ (13th) and scoring 5.08 R/G (5th). By my count they've had 24 games (39.3% of team total) scoring three or fewer runs with a record of 6 W - 18 L (.250 W%) in those games. That leaves 37 games (60.7% of team total) scoring four or more runs with a record of 32 W - 5 L (.865 W%) in those games.

Forget about three, four is the true Magic Number. Despite a lower wRC+ and higher R/G than last year which might suggest more boom or bust performance over this year's smaller sample their run distribution around that Magic Number has been pretty consistent with 2025.

Kuehner last pitched May 20th when he left the game early and injured. He's been on the 7-Day IL since. Not to rain on your parade but thems the facts.

When talking about the boom or bust nature of our offense, I think it would be more interesting to look at frequency of like 3+ run innings relative to the rest of MLB. I feel like the offense is pretty consistent game to game but within games it feels like so many times where the bats are terrible for like 7 innings and then they have two innings where the explode for all the runs. I feel like that’s probably pretty common around the league but I wonder if it’s more extreme for the Brewers because we, at least the last time I looked, had extreme splits with RISP vs not.

Is Gordon suffering from Mizitis?
