    If the goal is the World Series there is an argument that facing the Dodgers right away might be the best path. Just have to sneak in 2 road wins...

    Given that in general the Brewers see a lot of pitches they should also accumulate more challengeable pitches. And without getting more challenges there is a bias towards them having more called strikes outside the zone, and even challenge rate. I'm not sure how to quantify the magnitude of the effect. But thought it was worth pointing out, even if the overall message is still that there is room for improvement.

    I have enjoyed it over the decades. Watched it a bit early on, then caught it here or there, but eventually did a full run on streaming 8 years ago or so and stayed up to date since. The LA spinoff was pretty good too

    I don't want to rain on Tyler's parade, and actually producing in whatever the sample is way better than not. However it's only been 21 ABs for Tyler so far, I wouldn't quite put it in the bright spot for the season category just yet. That said yes to Jones #1 and then Perkins

    Surprised that WAR comes out the same for both of them since Cameron was generally thought of as one of the best if not the best CF in that time frame as I recall. Granted Mitchell has that slight edge with the bat, but I'm guessing he is also grading out a little better at the base running as well.

    I think most people recognize that the high strikeouts do make Mitchell a significant risk to flame out. Certainly they also present a big upside for him in that if he does stay healthy enough to really get some serious ABs he might really find some adjustments that help him cut that number down. On the risk side, seemingly anything that gets him out of whack could really lead to looking completely lost really fast. Possibly the bigger one though is that he is approaching that mythical peak age. So if he doesn't make those adjustments, father time stealing that small fraction of youth could also start to push the K rate higher and everything falls apart that way. In the meantime though he is producing and giving some of the other potential replacements the chance to get some more seasoning (Lara, etc) and that is pretty helpful.

    Very nice start from Harrison.

    I'll focus on the positive thought that as Greg Jones gets ready to lead off the next inning, we are hopefully just the weekend away of replacing him with Chourio, which is about as big of an upgrade as you can make.

    Rengifo, I don't normally hit but when I do it's always a double
  10. igor67
    I don't think he has to stay that hot for very long to justify a promotion. Just putting up a month of May where he is hitting well in general could be enough in my mind to bring up Pratt. Having some of those singles fall in of course right now helps make up for the rough start, but I'm sure the Brewers as usual are also looking at all the underlying data before making a move probably with the intention that when he gets promoted he stays up for good.

    I think Hamilton deserves credit for not taking the walk and keeping Ortiz out of a bases loaded situation
  12. igor67
    Well midseason is pretty broad in my mind, but you obviously want whoever you bring up to being having some sustained offensive success first. In a perfect world Pratt would be having Braylon's Payne's start to the season...
  13. igor67
    I would say that the immediate hope is that between Pratt and Williams one of them gets hot enough with the bat we can push Ortiz to the bench by mid season. Made I'm thinking starts getting some more reps at 3rd in the second half and earns the boost to AAA to end the year, with the strong possibility he breaks camp next spring trying to earn the ROY draft pick.
  14. igor67
    Black is due for a few favorable bounces, and I think that could be enough to given that generally he has been known for having solid ABs and steals which just fits right in with the philosophy. Get comfortably and it's probably easier to slide into a lesser role later as other guys come back.
  15. igor67
    I want to be excited about that
  16. igor67
    I'm assuming that what were seeing is that the NL Central has a really great interleague record at this point. And possibly even the NL as a whole since there is a small number of really bad records in the NL compared to the AL. If so some of the extreme's will have to settle in closer to .500
  17. igor67
    Is it Woodford time?
  18. igor67
    Sanchez with a triple!
  19. igor67
    Well I count that in Perkins favor on the season
  20. igor67
    That was a fun half inning
  21. igor67
    Even with the balanced schedule it still seem really weird to have not played a single NL central team yet
  22. igor67
    Too bad Woodford couldn't finish it, but a win and only using 2 bullpen guys is still a pretty good outcome. And Brice absolutely the MVP so far. Other guys have definitely pulled their weight, but Brice in all phases
  23. igor67
    Gotta find a way if the pitcher hands you 3 walks in the inning
  24. igor67
    Rengifo should do that more often
