  1. It is real hard to engage on this site because every new topic looks like there are no replies to anything. If somebody starts a new topic it could really have 10 replies or none, you don't know unless you click in. Active topics with much discussion drop down because it looks like there are no replies. Basically appears to be a dead forum if a new user looks around.
  2. Not a good sign for Brosseau that he isn't in the lineup tonight, certainly not on the team for his defense. May be optioned after the road trip.
  3. We'll see but somebody has to go Sunday. If a guy like Elvis pitches 3 innings Saturday it could be him. Rea may very well lose his starting spot as well.
  4. The Brewers can make an incremental improvement by actually getting a right handed platoon bat that can hit LHP. Lane Thomas of the Nationals fits, get rid of Voit.
  5. It.is so frustrating that Voit is the platoon against LHP when he can't hit LHP. How low can he go, I guess .038 isn't low enough.
  6. I don't really think the Brewers are considering sending Turang down right now because of the lack of good options. Hopefully he can pick things up in the next month as I have no doubt he will be sent down when Urias come back if he continues to struggle offensively. If Anderson/Turang/Urias are all producing there are enough at bats for all.
  7. Obviously very small sample but Hiua is hitting lefties better than righties thus far and his k rate is lower against lefties. It is clear that the Brewers will be using Voit against LHP and if Hiura was brought up they would do the same. So the question is has Hiura actually done something to improve against lefties and the inside fastball or is it small sample nonsense.
  8. He appears to actually be playing better defense than he has in years. Yes, it would be helpful if he could sit against lefties, maybe can do that more with Taylor coming back. They are not releasing him this year so enough will not be enough this year. Business wise I'm sure the Brewers have a large insurance policy on him. Realistically not getting rid of him anytime soon unless there is a career ending injury.
  9. They are paying him anyways, just start Hiura for three games and see if he really can hit lefties. Perkins is useless.
  10. Any word on if Taylor is still with the team or is he done with rehab already? If healthy certainly could use him against the LHP heavy Angels.
  11. Lots of patience by the Brewers, fouling off pitches. Lorenzen putting in a lot of work, could be gone early.
  12. In general the Brewers should play Contreras more at DH, I don't exactly consider that a hot take and not sure why so many would disagree. However, do like Winker in this game. Next series against the Angels where they will likely face more lefties I think the Brewers start Contreras at DH. It is still early, Contreras will get his fair share there.
  13. Unless this injury bothers Frelick all season I find it highly improbable that Frelick stays in Nashville all season. They need him.
  14. Don't have to worry about super 2 anymore with Frelick.
  15. Why even mess around with Claudio, just go with Andrews and add him to the shuttle.
  16. I think we all knew who wrote this as soon as we saw it was a Brent Suter article. Taken seriously, like others have said Suter would not have been in high leverage situations. He very well may have been in the Guerra spot after the game is basically over. If we were to look at a Brewers reliever from last year that might have been higher leverage that player may be Trevor Gott. He pitched in the 7th/8th a lot prior to Bush arriving. It sure looks like they should have kept Gott instead of Bush.
  17. Bush to Nashville and Guerra DFA should happen today.
  18. It will probably be at least a couple of weeks for Frelick since he is on the 7 day IL and then will probably need a few games to get going again. At least Wiemer will get plenty of opportunities as there are no better options in sight.
  19. Yes, if he wants to play. He gets the same either way. He could just retire since he is getting paid the next two years.
  20. Since Arizona is paying his large salary, any team signing him will pay minimum so that isn't an issue.
  21. Nobody wanted to pay Hiura a couple of million to sort out his issues so I agree it is a marriage of convenience. It isn't happening now but if he performs well and get that K% down then somebody will eventually inquire of him. After the trade deadline a bunch of teams will need guys to fill out rosters and Hiura could still be traded.
  22. Obviously the Brewers nor any team will claim him. However, the starting pitching options are not great right now so if Burnes has to miss a couple of starts I wouldn't mind as a fill in. Wouldn't expect much but didn't expect much of Chi Chi Gonzalez or Jason Alexander either but somebody has to pitch.
  23. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Perkins is demoted before Taylor comes back.
