  1. Bryan De La Cruz and Jalen Beeks are an effort to improve as much as Frankie Montas is.
  2. We saw how expensive pitching was at the trade deadline. Anyone still upset that the Brewers drafted 17 pitchers?
  3. Agree on the first sentence. I just don't know that this is the year with not knowing how long Yelich will be out/if he needs surgery, Peralta underperforming, Woodruff and Gasser out for the year. Not the year to go all-in; take some chances with some fringe guys for spare parts and see if you can get lucky. Definitely need Freddy to get back to 2nd half of last year, but with the number of off days in the post-season plus the number of guys who can give them 3 good innings (Hall, Wilson, Ross, maybe Hudson but more like 2 with him, maybe Koenig) they can bullpen their 4th starter with two guys going once through the order each.
  4. Wiemer and Junis - OF and RP. Wiemer not MLB, but on the 40-man.
  5. Junis has had a "balky" shoulder all season. If they felt like his shoulder could handle it he would have been starting. He's been in the pen for a reason and they need a starter. I don't think it's anything more than that. Junis, Ross, Hall, Wilson - they need a starter out of one of them and none have been showing they can be effective for more than 3-4 innings. Junis was included to help balance salaries and 40-man spots. Wiemer, we'll see, but that's the price of starting pitching this time of year. Like others have said, just no room for him, especially if Hicklen has moved ahead of him on the depth chart.
  6. Yes. I had to copy/paste to Excel/Google Sheets (make the first column really, really wide first) then in the Data tab use Text to Columns. B-R tells you how to do it.
  7. Too bad that Skenes has ROY all but locked up. Would have been nice to get pick #31 in next year's draft.
  8. I thought games were over after 4 innings?
  9. The first sentence is true. However, they've spread those bullpen innings out among 22 different relief pitchers (not including position players). That's why the stats that I posted are more relevant. It's not the same eight relievers getting all of those innings. I count about 78 innings by relievers who are not on the 26-man roster or 15-day IL (including Vieira, Uribe, Herget, White, Junk, Hernandez, Bukaskas, etc.). @TURBO - not cherry-picking, this is why it's not an issue. You have to factor the number of pitchers that it's spread across. https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/majors/2024-standard-pitching.shtml Convert to .CSV, export to Excel/Google Sheets/etc., add a column and do a simple calculation, delete anyone averaging >2.5IP/appearance.
  10. Among pitchers averaging less than 2.5 IP per appearance, the highest that any Brewer ranks in terms of appearances is Hoby Milner at 29th. Payamps is 60th, Peguero is 83rd, Hudson is 138th, Megill is 142nd, and Koenig is 162nd. Among pitchers averaging less than 2.5 IP per appearance, the highest that any Brewer ranks in terms of innings pitched is Hudson at 18th, Milner is 29th, Peguero is 94th, Koenig is 102nd, Payamps is 133rd, and Megill is 171st. The Brewers haven't been using their core relievers more than anybody else has.
  11. Texas is six games out of the WC, Toronto is 7.5 out. Still have Kikuchi, Eovaldi, Heaney available. And that Max Scherzer guy.
  12. Is that on Turang or is that a coaching call? Seems like you think it's on Turang unless I'm misunderstanding you.
  13. I think it's because he doesn't need to be added to the 40-man yet. Unless it's an emergency, or he's viewed as clearly better than any other option, best to not add him unless they need to. There's enough of a 26/40-man crunch right now.
  14. Career 60 WAR (so far) at a position where it's more difficult to get WAR. Yep.
  15. Pitching Change: Woo-Suk Go replaces Chandler Jozwiak He certainly did.
  16. That's the downside with Williams - he walks guys. Career 4.2 BB/9, 4.3/9 last season.
  17. Fun fact that I would have never guessed - Blake Snell is the all-time career leader in K/9. Yep, more than Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez, Nolan Ryan, etc. In his last five outings he's pitched 28.2 IP, given up 13 hits, 5 ER, 10 BB, 32 K. In 3rd place on career K/9? His teammate, who just came back off of the IL, Robbie Ray. Ray can opt-out after the season but is under contract at $25M per year for 2025 and 2026. Again, the Giants will have to kick in some cash and likely a PTBNL to protect if Ray opts out, but he won't cost much for prospects either.
  18. SEA has only two LHP on their entire roster, one of whom has walked 12 in 18 innings. Good landing spot for Milner for a low-level prospect. Yankees only have two LHP, one has an ERA over 5.00 and the other has struck out 6 in 17 IP. Another spot for Milner. That's just looking at the AL.
  19. A .567 OPS doesn't warrant being sat? And who said MKE wants him back? The original poster was just throwing out ideas.
  20. Who should he have put in? Payamps, Junis, and Wilson have double the HR rate as Peguero does this year and Junk has triple the HR rate. Hudson's on the IL.
  21. A really underrated part of the Brewers offense is how they work the count, get foul balls, and make the starters throw a lot of pitches and get them out of the game early and get to the bullpen.
  22. If the Brewers batters make an out they're bad, and if their pitchers give up a hit they're bad. Do I have it right?
  23. And he would have been stranded there anyway.
  24. Six posts ago you called them lethargic and comatose. Now they're too aggressive. Make up your mind.
