  1. LHP often take longer to develop than RHP. I wouldn't read anything into him being 24/25 as far as prospect status and value. Given the likelihood of trading Burnes and Woodruff with Miley, Houser, and Lauer FAs after 2024 I highly doubt that they deal any of their upper minor league pitchers (Gasser, Rodriguez, Jarvis). I don't see them acquiring a starter, but if they do, more likely that they deal Henderson/Aquino/other A-ball pitchers.
  2. Impressive. Plenty of reasons to be excited, but HS picks are high risk and sometimes don't make it past low-A.
  3. I'll take the contrarian angle, and of the above mentioned players the one who I'd be most willing to part with is Chourio, simply for the reason that OF is where the Brewers haven't had any difficulty finding top prospects. It's a lot harder to find pitching and catching, and Frelick has shown that he's needed in Milwaukee. Now, it would have to be a helluva return for him, but I'm moving him before Mis, Quero, or Frelick. If I'm handicapping who is most likely to be traded in any significant deal: EBJ Zamora Mendez Lara Guilarte Baez
  4. Turang's strikeout % (24%) is slightly above league average K% (22.6%) and his BB% (8.7%) is right there at league average (8.9%) which is good for a rookie. If those were a lot worse than league average I'd be more concerned. He needs two things - more experience against major league pitching and to get on the Matt McLain forearm strengthening program.
  5. It's unlikely but possible that it's another Taylor Jungmann situation where they've been asking him to make certain adjustments and he has quietly been refusing. IIRC, that's why Jungmann never got another shot despite despite good numbers in AAA.
  6. Justin time... (I'll see myself out...)
  7. I think the top target has to be Bellinger as he can play RF, CF, 1B, or DH. Yeah, maybe he's been a bit lucky, but he's likely to be a lot better than what they've had at those positions.
  8. I would also add the undrafted Jeff Peterek to the list of Brewers pitchers debuts. 7 IP, 2 H against the Yankees in 1989.
  9. Unfortunately Gasser and Misiorowski with mediocre performances today, but Woody looking sharp was by far the most important.
  10. I don't understand why I couldn't watch the Brewers on their damn app. Show commercials between innings just like on TV. Me watching on the app increases your total viewership which will increase your ad revenue.
  11. Frelick wasn't even the most incredible thing that happened in the org today. Biloxi was down 7-2 heading into the top of the 9th and hung a 10-spot in their half inning.
  12. How do you walk Harris on four pitches to bring Acuna up?
  13. Heck of an outing by Houser, just one bad pitch to a loaded lineup.
  14. Gameday on mlb.com used to have a feature where you could see where all of the outs landed on the field. I can't find it - did they get rid of it, or is it hiding somewhere?
  15. Stearns - he signed Wong to Wong's contract. It was a crap for crap trade.
  16. Houser's last four outs have been a strikeout of Ronald Acuna, Ozzie Albies, Matt Olson, and Sean Murphy. I wonder how many other pitchers have struck out those four guys in a row.
  17. Same here - as expected, I'm getting Sox-Twins as I live in Chicago. I tried signing into the Fox Sports app w/my parents Spectrum login (they live in the Fond du Lac area) and I still get the "this game is not included in your TV package" error when I try to select it.
  18. If you're complaining about Adames/where he is in the lineup, for the 16 games in July he's .258/.306/.576 for a .881 OPS. This late in the season his season totals aren't going to change much over the course of a week or two no matter what he does.
  19. Wiemer was called up because of injury and started because they were facing a LHP. Turang made the team out of spring training and wasn't a callup. I don't recall Mitchell being late. He found out the night before and it was a 6:10PM game start.
  20. I recall it being the opposite. Unless they need a guy to start because of injury, they usually have not started a prospect and let him "take it all in" for a day so they're not completely overwhelmed because of nerves, chaotic last minute travel, figuring out where to go and how everything works, lack of sleep, etc.
  21. HS players are the hardest to project, but can have the highest upside. At one point earlier this year, on MLB.com's top 100 prospect list you had to go down to at least #17 before you found a player who was drafted out of college. The top 16 were drafted out of HS or an international FA signed at age 16. So take a bunch of HS players, throw them up against the wall, and see who sticks. That's kind of what they did with Knoth, Bitonti, and Pratt (and to a lesser extent, Birchard, as he was still 19 on draft day).
  22. Why trade prospects for a 1B with an OPS below .700? They already have one in Tellez. Tellez had a .886 OPS in March/April and a .830 OPS as recently as June 1st. He had an awful June - and admitted he was playing hurt with the forearm injury. A healthy Tellez has showed that he has more upside.
  23. Rooker is no different than Tellez. Do people not remember that Tellez had a .886 OPS in March/April and an .830 OPS as late as June 1st?
