  1. But what they could do is have Yelich play LF more often to get Hoskins in the lineup. We don't want Yelich playing the OF every day, but it was clear last night that Frelick is not 100% yet. Giving Yelich more games in LF and moving Collins to RF to give Frelick more rest is something that could easily and realistically happen.
  2. I'd say there's a good chance that Mis ends up there before the end of the season. He'd likely replace Anderson or both in the pen and call up another starter on 9/1.
  3. Don't underestimate the "frugalness" of Wisconsinites. And if it's on a Sunday and the Packers are at home...
  4. If you don't know much about investing, put 90-95% of what you can afford to invest in a S&P 500 fund and keep it there. Invest the other 5-10% in speculative things such as crypto. Tortoise and the hare. It's a lot easier to get rich slowly, and as you have learned, you never make or lose money on anything until you sell it.
  5. There are 227 pitchers with at least 20 IP who have started at least three games this season. The Brewers have 10 on that list, so call it 217 that they could have faced. Assuming that the ESPN list used is the same as Fangraphs (unlikely, but we'll roll with it), the chances of facing one of those top 23 pitchers in any one game is about 10% (10.6% to be precise). The Brewers have played 112 games so far. Assuming random assignment of any one of those 217 pitchers for any of their 112 games, the expected number of times facing one of those top 23 pitches is 12 whereas they have faced them 15 times. So, statistically, they have faced top 23 pitchers more times than expected so far this season. This jibes with what I looked at earlier this summer, where the of the first 20 or so games the Brewers played after they started to get "hot", only 3 of them were against SPs with an ERA >4.00.
  6. Cubs lose, starter they acquired at the deadline went 2 IP, five relievers have to cover 7 IP.
  7. If he's not 100% he shouldn't pitch. The last thing we need is him over-compensating for something that doesn't feel right and subsequently hurting his arm.
  8. And the only players with an OPS >.800 have a total of 129 PAs - Vaughn, Black, and Perkins.
  9. As someone who is also tall, I can say that tibia contusions are a common thing. Bed frames, coffee tables, park benches, etc., I've had a few doozies that have drawn blood.
  10. With the Mudcats leading in the 2nd half standings and fighting for a playoff chance, and the T-Rats... not, those guys are probably going to stay in Carolina.
  11. Yeah, but exit velocity and stuff... How about those starting pitchers the Cubs got at the deadline?
  12. Do you have any stats that show that the other top scoring teams in the league don't have huge scoring games and consistently score a lot or runs every single night? Because I disproved that earlier this season, but that was earlier this season and maybe things have changed over the last 6 weeks or so.
  13. My guess is that they sent down Myers to stretch him out for the 19 games in 18 days, specifically the double-header on the 18th, when they will need an extra starter maybe two. They will need one or both of he and Patrick to start games during that stretch, depending on how many innings Mis is allowed to go. My guess is DFA of McGee (with a nice incentive to stay in the org if he clears waivers for wearing this one) and add someone to the 40.
  14. Salary expense is likely deductible. Cash transfers likely not deductible.
  15. Saw a Tweet that he had 80 grade speed (and 60-70 grade defense). His role, if any, will be as a pinch runner in the playoffs
  16. There are some people around here who think that relievers should be perfect and never give up any runs. The reality is if you told these people what our relievers would be at this point in ERA/FIP/WPA/etc., they would have taken it in a heartbeat.
  17. 37 players have at least 200 PAs at 1B this year. Rhys Hoskins is 16th in wRC+. He's not the best, but he sure as hell doesn't "suck".
  18. There's an old saying, "Dance with who brought you."
  19. Yeah, but if they win the World Series all of the additional revenue from tickets/concessions/merchandise will pay off the loan! (Straight from the Broke Gambler's playbook.)
  20. No 2024 though - wonder if there was a procedure (TJ, brace) that may have affected his 2025 numbers at Southern Miss.
