    I think this is a classic problem where people often think of an ace as a top 10-15 pitcher in the league.
  2. igor67
    That does seem awfully extreme. On the other hand only 12 teams have an over .500 record at the moment, which also seems a to be getting toward the extreme.

    I would definitely want to see Mitchell on a rehab assignment, but he has done enough that if he looks ready and productive in game action I have no issue optioning Chourio for a bit.

    Assuming we won't bat here in the 9th, can we have more hits than outs? We already have more non outs than outs unless it goes to extra innings.

    My big surprise so far with Frelick is the relatively modest number of steals. Anybody pick-up on any reason he doesn't run more?
  6. igor67
    Well maybe they'll spike a ball in the dirt so Yelich can score, or we could always go for another straight steal of home.

    Great AB from Turang

    Sal steadily creeping towards a .700 OPS over the last week.

    Even if the Mets are picking up a good chunk of the tab on Alonso, that batting profile just looks not exciting. He hit 46 HRs last year and only had a .504 SLG. I can't really think of that big of a power hitter having that empty of a line. Mid 60's BB totals for that power output is really telling.

    I agree with getting Jackson a break, maybe even a long one to really get settled, and at present a professional RH OFer is a solid value play for the team. With the lead not a huge urge to have to do something right away as Jackson or Weimer could put it together in the next 2 months, but for the stretch run and playoffs you don't want to give ABs away.

    Is there a WAR total for the Brewers portion of their careers?

    Great win, and even on the radio this team is just a lot of fun to listen to. Watched the condensed game today and that Frelick slide was fantastic.
  13. igor67
    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.
  14. igor67
    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.
  15. igor67
    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.
  16. igor67
    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.
  17. igor67
    Nice start
  18. igor67
    We have definitely struck fast and hard, so absolutely sweep the leg and show no mercy.
  19. igor67
    In honor of Coach Coopers Mother we should pour on the runs today.
  20. igor67
    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.
  21. igor67
    Maybe everyone is worried in might be a Thai.
  22. igor67
    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.
  23. igor67
    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
  24. igor67
    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.

    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?
