  1. Baseball being what it is, I'm guessing league wide teams hit that poorly with RISP often enough that it isn't super rare, but 3-38 still seems awfully hard to do, and to have won all those games anyway is indeed impressive.
  2. Braves just lost, so 1.5 games up for the number 2 seed
  3. Cards lose, 7 game lead
  4. Solidly John Madden territory, he needed to get that one knee down to equal 2 feet
  5. Cards lose, 6 game lead.
  6. Given they were in Colorado and Vegas, Sproat has looked rotation worthy in 3 of his last 4 starts now in my opinion.
  7. That's parts easy have you ever seen anyone hit a fish homerun distance?
  8. I expect it will come, I don't mind him taking a simple contact approach and having some initial success before trying to swing for more power.
  9. Almost identical lines from our starters this series. All pitched 6 or 6.1, 7Ks for each, 0 or 1 BB, and 4 or 5 hits
  10. After already beating plenty of good teams this year, there is no reason to over interpret two 1-run losses on the road. Each teams batted ball luck could have easily fallen differently and split those 2 games.
  11. I think part of the difficulty with Vaughn in this case is that his splits this season against lefties are just so ridiculous that it throws off our intuitions about the down side of the platoon. .467/.569/.810 makes MVP Bonds look second best.
  12. I suspect the Brewers will decrease the list a bit with some form of deal. Wilken and O-Rae strike me as prospects I'd like to deal as players who may have a lot more value in different organizations at this point. But Williams and Adams seem like definite adds to me.
  13. Radio team just said that 43 of Miz's strikeouts this year were on just 3 pitches. AI suggests Spencer Strider holds the single season record at 67 total
  14. Brewers with the highest challenge rate for catchers/pitchers and the lowest for batters.
  15. It sounded like the crowd is already getting into 'Coop' chants
  16. Narrowing the hole to just 1 corner of the zone is pretty huge, since it should if nothing else make it easier to layoff those pitches and wait for the pitcher to miss for a ball or end up coming down or in farther. Just as importantly in my book is showing that he can make the adjustments and is likely then to keep adapting throughout his prime years. I think he'd look really good as a primary RF now if we brought up Lara. On the health front he is now 2 PAs shy of his career high.
  17. Miz days look like a good time to play him at 3rd. Looking at the Spray chart I counted 9 ground balls total in the 3rd base area (I had to guess from the chart about where the line between 3rd and SS ends up). Just looking at OBP difference between Vaughn and Hamilton. If you assume just 3 Plate appearances per start while Miz is in. Hamilton gets on base 13 times compared to 18 for Vaughn. So yes it looks like the offense/defense trade off there makes sense.
  18. Worth mentioning that the league minimum is up to 780,000 now. So my quick math indicates even a waiver wire pickup saves the Brewers almost 450K. He is owed about 2.3 million for the rest of the year.
  19. https://www.statmuse.com/mlb/ask?q=wrc%2B+by+position Based on this year's data Joey's bat will play better at 3B, yes SS have outhit 3B league wide. Catcher is the only worse batting position, compared to 3B
  20. You could probably even do a top 30, but only vote on 25 as you would almost certainly get enough differences in the 20-25 range to have 30 different players or more earning votes.
  21. If the swap is really Pratt for Rengifo, the floor on that improvement for the team is around 1 WAR. Which isn't tremendous but is about as good as most deadline deals that work out ever are anyway. And that's conservatively putting Pratt on the low end for a debut (again every SS for the Brewers has hit better in their debut by WRC than Rengifo was doing this year.) Right now that 1 Win would put up to the number 2 seed so definitely valuable to be able to set-up our rotation and skip the wild card round in my book. And importantly I have yet to see anyone propose an actual likely to be dealt viable needle mover between either 3rd base or SS. I would love to see Lara in CF and think between the offense and the defense it could definitely be a big improvement for the team.
