The Martinez description might tell the story of our lineup tonight... "walked at least five in each of his last three appearances." Put in the patient folks... Thames (LF) Yelich (RF) Cain (CF) Shaw (3B) Aguilar (1B) Villar (2B) Pina © Sogard (SS) Suter (P)

Let's hope for a similar result from a few days back against this dude.

What should be DS targets
liveforoctober replied to brewmann04's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Barring injury ... I just don't see many spots Stearns is going to feel the need to dish any prospects of note to upgrade the club. I'm sure he will make a minor deal or two to maybe get a middle infielder and maybe another bullpen arm for depth? The biggest acquisition we will be getting at the deadline is Jimmy Nelson. Let's cross our fingers Anderson is starting to round into form ... but with a rotation of Nelson, Anderson, Chacin, Davies, Guerra .... who are we replacing with a trade? Guerra has earned his spot. Chacin might be our best starter. The answer is Davies but he won 17 games last year ... the Brewers are going to give him every chance to figure things out once he's back. The only spot I could see Stearns dishing real prospects for an upgrade is a catcher that has future control. -
I know this subject has been hashed out enough times it doesn't need to be repeated ... but it is noteworthy to me when I am listening to the game on the radio and my gut drops because I think Baez hit a homerun when he actually struck out because of Uecker's call. "Here's the pitch.. swung on and hit... *loud cheer from the crowd* ... *too long of a pause*.. into the glove of Kratz ... foul tip and that will end the inning. " His cadence is so off kilter these days.

How could you rest Braun who is hitting .400 against Chatwood? C'mon mann. And if anyone isn't intimidated and KNOWS how to beat the Cubs, it is Ryan Braun. Let's not get dopey. And if Sogard plays, that will show why some teams simply don't make it to the playoffs. I didn't say it is what i would do. It is what i thought counsell would do. Flip 1 and 3 and i was correct..
-
Cain Yelich Thames Shaw Santana Villar Pina Sogard is my guess.. think Braun is due for a rest.
-
I laughed. Thanks. #52!
-
In terms of helping the Brewers ball club this trade is such a win for our club AND somehow we get cash out of the deal too. Great little move by Stearns and Co. Thanks for the memories Sogard, you will always be remembered.
-
I love Lorenzo Cain and Christian Yelich. Let's extend them both right now until 2037.
-
Worried about a strikeout.
-
Come on Yelich .. bust it open then let the rains come.
-
Was Suter not available to hit there?
-
Time to talk about future at SS?
liveforoctober replied to adambr2's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I've seen this type of comment a few times since he came back and it is so silly. So do you think he was racing for this pop up and thought to himself "I don't really need to try as hard as I can to get this because they won't send me back down to AAA.." ... then dropped it due to that train of thought? Arcia has made that play before and will make that play again in the future. He also hasn't made that play and won't make it sometimes in the future. That is how it works. Your reasoning above is D or D+ detective work. -
Nick Franklin and Eric Sogard are basically the same person... and with Saladino on the DL as future depth and Dylan Moore hitting everything thrown at him ... I guess I'm confused too. If you don't trust Villar, call up the kid hitting .350 in AAA and see what you have. Sogard is exactly what he is.

Comparing 2018 Brewers with 2015 Royals
liveforoctober replied to Patrick425's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I mean, I guess I get your point ... but are we going to start getting picky about style points when it comes to getting a ring? If the Brewers re-enact the KC years and are a 'bad team' that wins the World Series, I'm not going to be too heart broken. -
Does anyone have any idea where Brice will slide into our prospect rankings? Keston slid into the top 5 almost immediately upon signing ... where should we anticipate our new SS?
-
I've always been interested in the college guys who aren't over powering for some reason. Yes, you always want the Kerry Wood prospects... but having brainy kids who know how to pitch really fill out the depth in the organization if they can progress to the higher tanks. Like Roegner, there is another Wisconsin kid drafted last year with the Padres is off to a great start in low A ball, Caleb Boushley. Sub 2 ERA, sub 1 whip, k/bb over 4, almost 9ks per 9. Like Cam, fastball doesn't go much above 90. College grad so old for the league. I like these types for some reason.
-
The comment was about starting Perez over Villar. You have a comment about his magic hands with the bullpen. Interesting. Some people go to a really nice party that the host spent a lot of time preparing for and spending many hours getting all accommodations in order and while most people are going to enjoy the party and the effort the host put forth ... there will always be people who walk out disgusted with the host because they didn't have any craft beer or the bushes weren't trimmed outside. That's his point.

We don't kill lefties like we used to. In fact we bat worse against lefties this year. We OPS .100 better against righties. Sure, if you think the Santana and Braun we had in Apr-May will be the same the entire season. If they revert back to what they should be doing ... we still want to face lefties.
-
Gosh I love facing lefties. Aguilar 2-4 with a BB, 2 RBI's, 1 R ... is anyone taking the under right now?
-
I'll let Kanye do my talking... "Looked like Tom Cruise in Vanilla Sky, it was televised There's been an accident like GEICO They thought I was burnt up like Pepsi did Michael I must got a angel" Wishing healing upon Davies and a fast return no matter the decision of DL or not. Come back stronger just like Kanye did and slay it!
-
In the words of Kanye West: "Went from most hated to the champion God flow I guess that’s a feeling only me and Lebron know" Go Brewers.
-
Who would you have started today?
-
The last 3 times I've looked at a lineup and thought "ooof, I would have done 4 things differently..." we have won in laughers. Looking forward to a 7-1 win tonight.

Williams is a pretty good piggy back to Suter for no other reason than he throws 45 mph faster than Brent.
