Chourio's not even Top 10 from age 20-22 in wRC+ or fWAR just in the 2000's.

He's around 50-60 all-time according to some quick Gemini research at slightly over 10 WAR. Cal Ripken is 25th with 14+. 

He's competing against historical guys who more regularly started their careers younger. 

EDIT: this is not to harp on the point as I think it's an interesting thing to be curious about!

Unfortunate 

He is well respected by his coaches & peers, but he is no longer an asset on the field

It’s so nice to be a bad offense but scoring the second most runs in baseball.

The Jackson Chourio that has played for the Brewers has had a top 10 season for his age in the history of baseball. 

I mean, I don’t get this at all. 

No one had said a negative word at all. 

Were you just actively seeking conflict, or?

I wasn’t dissing Chourio in any way. I love Chourio. Has he been one of the top 10 players in baseball history from ages 20-22? I dunno, I very much doubt it. Hank Aaron? Ken Griffey Jr? Juan Soto? That’s just off the top of my head.  I certainly wouldn’t make a definitive statement like that with at least doing a little research to back it up.

Go ahead and stand up if you said the Cubs were winning the division after the Padres series.

[yourout]

Not sure what was more impressive last night....the 20 that we scored or the zero that we gave up.

This Reds lineup can score some runs

[39Streak]

The only reason to play Bunty at this point is occasional days off for Pratt or Ortiz.  

[Frisbee Slider]

For outfielders since the Wild Card era, Chourio is top 20 already for age 22 season for bWAR

In MLB history he's 46th in fWAR in age 20-22 seasons at 11.1. Obviously very, very good but nowhere near Top 10 in history.

It is a shame but he is not the player he once was.

I feel the same about Frelick as a replacement for Lara or Mitchell

I think Drohan is running out of gas.

[folly412]

With the very fresh pen, I've seen enough of Drohan.

Don't sweat it. In seriousness, I can't remember if I posted the series was over or not. I was certainly nervous at that point. The Dodger series soothed a lot of it that anxiety but I still am going to generally react to in-game moments game-to-game.

It drives me crazy watching him pitch.    These young guys are gassed.   

[jason21nl]

*** was that 0-2 pitch.  My god that’s just and awful pitch 

[rccola42]

Don't think Drohan is going to make a playoff roster. Been terrible for months.

[trwi7]

Harrison could have done this.
