  1. Glad Perkins didn't get injured on that last catch. Sliding head first into the wall was a little concerning to watch even if it was a crazy awesome catch.
  2. Starting pitching would be ideal, but there is definitely a universe where getting Pham is a nice add. Hopefully Mitchell can step in and be at least respectable here soon, but we saw the difference down the stretch last year it made to not have big line-up holes and right now RF is a big hole.
  3. If just one of the young OFers would find the Turang level (not style necessarily though for Frelick that would be fine) adjusting to the league we could go from good to feared offense.
  4. You didn't say it directly but perhaps the diversity of hitting approaches helps explain why they are so middle of the road on some team wide stats, yet the overall production is strong.
  5. We have definitely struck fast and hard, so absolutely sweep the leg and show no mercy.
  6. In honor of Coach Coopers Mother we should pour on the runs today.
  7. That miss rate chart for Dunn though is so bad, in particular because he has obvious holes high the zone, low in the zone, outside and inside. Which means every pitcher has at least 1 really good place to attack him regardless of the arsenal of pitches they have.
  8. Maybe everyone is worried in might be a Thai.
  9. Turang at the top just looks so good now, not just for the offense in general but with Contreras and Yelich behind him he'll keep getting pitches to hit and seems to have found a way to make the pitchers pay whether it is doubles into the gap or slapping singles and stealing bases. Adames and Hoskins slugging looks real good for sure. I'd probably opt for Ortiz 6th at this point and Perkins 9th to try and take advantage of the OBP, and hope that takes some pressure off whoever we are shuffling in the 7 and 8 spots on any given day.
  10. I was thinking about more from the automated end, suddenly the pitcher is maybe pitching the next guy in a tighter area than normal, or missing to the smaller player
  11. That said if I had one weakness as a team that I think is easiest to fix mid season it is the bullpen, so I'm all for taking advantage now because they could come on very strong at the end if they make some improvements there.
  12. Reviewing the always outstanding link report this morning and Jim mentioned the size difference between a couple of the prospects. And it got me to wondering if there is potentially a notable impact on the pitcher if you do actually have a couple of players who are actually extremely different in size? Rickey of course famously tried to manipulate the size of his zone to draw more walks, but with the increasingly more uniform strikezone calls by umpires I wonder if this is something exploitable on the margins. And if so is it hard to go from the small player to the larger player or vice versa?
  13. Well Houston has been bad, Miami terrible, and NY just mediocre, so combined with the peripherals hopefully we bust out the bats.
  14. I'd handicap the percentages pretty much the same. Cincy does have enough youth that they could make it interesting and for awhile STL could still pull the fountain of Youth trick in the second half, all the more reason to be greedy this weekend and go for a sweep.
  15. He was already pitching himself towards the demotion, so if I understand this not only does it let us try someone else and we have bullpen choices to try. It also gives us control and flexibility about when that suspension happens which is pretty valuable especially given how much we are relying on the pen getting stuck an arm down for even 3 days at the wrong time could be a huge problem.
  16. I've found the IGT pretty readable this year, perhaps underwhelming on some nights but last year it was a ton of posts all about arguing for the sake of arguing instead of the content of the game. I am definitely pro-forum and I really appreciate the in-season quality of the articles this year.
  17. I think at this point the Brewers response is that we don't believe any roster is sustainable we'll just keeping making moves... Which I think I've kind of come around to, every season too many things happen to stick to a single plan.
  18. I'm often with you Nate, but on the flipside the pitcher had come close to the plate in 7 pitches and I don't really want my struggling hitter popping up a meatball there. If Yelich or William watch it go by very different story though
  19. A good time for Jackson to make an adjustment.
  20. Myers quickly approaching rotation savior status here in start number 2.
