YOU obviously have never been to Edley's BBQ...
-
If they give up a 7-game lead with 38 games left to play, they deserve to lose the tiebreaker. -
All they need is one of the last two. To only give up one game in five H2H games is plenty acceptable.

Minutiae, Oddities, and Random Baseball Queries
LouisEly replied to Playing Catch's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Are you referring to the best 15 umpires at calling balls/strikes call the balls/strikes for every game? If so, getting in and out of a crouch behind the plate would be very physically taxing to have to do every day. They rotate bases to cover to give them a break from being the home plate ump. -
Well, he was on bereavement leave, so it's understandable if he's been a bit distracted lately
-
The Cubs sphincters must be so tight right now
-
Yeah, I'll take them getting Boyd out of the way against Patrick and punt that one. Their (arguably) best pitcher against our worst. Give them one, try to get to the bullpen as much as you can, and then get at least one of the last three games. If they get one of the two today and then one of the last two I'll be ecstatic.
-
They would have to send someone else down to call up Rodriguez. Patrick is the extra pitcher (technically roster spot #27) for the DH so they can't replace him tomorrow. They could send someone else down (such as Anderson) and call up an arm to replace that person. Payamps hasn't pitched since 8/16 so my guess is that he's in Chicago ready to be called up (with an Easton McGee DFA to make room on the 40 and Anderson sent down) for tonight or Wednesday if a fresh arm is needed.
-
This. They get an extra pitcher and they need a starter. Henderson is on the IL, Gasser isn't there yet in his rehab process, and the only other starters on the 40-man are are Patrick and Carlos Rodriguez. Patrick is unquestionably the best option.
-
#11 is if seats were sold to different people (or different partial season ticket packages) for the two games, who gets the seats for the doubleheader? My guess is that with how well the Cubs did the first half of the season that there weren't a lot of unsold tickets for the series.
-
I'll say it... Freddy Peralta = ace (Even if just for today)
-
I don't think the heavy stuff's gonna come down for a while
-
So I'm not allowed to have an opinion that differs from yours, even if I have stats to support it, because it's an "agenda post". Got it.

Myers this season: Pitch count 1-25: .632 OPS-A Pitch count 26-50: .900 OPS-A Myers was at 24 pitches.
-
It's the Great American Bandbox. I think they said the wind was flying out a little. Anderson's HR rate this year is 0.9 and Myers is 1.3. Personally, I would have stayed with Myers but I'm not upset about the decision.
-
If you knew me, you'd know that I don't ignore anything. If a team has a lead, I'd rather that the pitcher challenge them to hit their way on then give them free baserunners that didn't earn their way on. Walking more batters isn't a consequence of being unhittable - you're ignoring the fact that there's no correlation between those two things. Walking more is a function of command and control. Good hitters don't swing at balls outside of the zone. Being "unhittable" is a function of "stuff". I never said he didn't have good "stuff".
-
A veteran reliever with a good track record prior to this year is just a DFA away...
-
It wasn't really a platoon, it was more based on the types of pitches that the pitchers threw. I recall them saying that one guy was starting because he hit 4-seam fastballs really well and that's what the starting pitcher threw.
-
Sure hope Hall didn't do that throwing his glove on the ground in the dugout yesterday.
-
It raises your stress level while it's happening. There are many, many posts within IGT's on this site that have documented that. Particularly walking guys when you have the lead.

Brewers Trade Aaron Civale To White Sox For Andrew Vaughn
LouisEly replied to wibadgers23's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
In 193 PAs with the White Sox he had an OPS of 0.531. In 120 PAs with the Brewers he has raised his overall OPS to 0.723. That's incredible. -
Those statistics are outcome-based. "Shaky" isn't outcome-based. "Shaky" describes the journey from beginning to end. He walked a lot of guys and threw a lot of pitches per inning relative to his peers. That fits my definition of a "shaky" journey from beginning to end, even if the outcome was what was desired and a frequently better outcome than his peers.

Pretty much everything right now

Is this the first time that TikTok has been mentioned on Brewerfanatic? If so, ban this man. Immediately.

Looking at his minor league stats, it's no wonder why he flamed out. In 1987 as a 19-year-old he pitched four games and 27 innings. Then in 1988 he pitched 135 heavy, heavy innings with 79 BB and 160 K. I can't imagine what his total pitch count was for that year. He was able to sustain that for one more year, then in 1990 he got injured and then he was cooked. No way could his small stature and frame hold up to that workload.
