    The lockout looms though :( If he gets called up for a week and then MLB locks the players out he cannot play next year because he is a part of the union. If he stays off the 40man he can play a full minor league season next year. I just can't see the Brewers wasting a year of development for Made, Fischer, Burke, etc unless they need them to help win a ring this year. Otherwise, why risk it?

    Looks like Edward Cabrera was carted off for the Cubs. Did the splits at 1st and grabbed his groin/hamstring area...

    Lara 4-4 tonight down in Nash..

    Ebel's best game as a pro at the plate. Quickly approaching an .800 OPS

    I'd be lying if I said they are not driving me nuts as well.

    Frias with 3 stolen bases thus far in his debut so he has definitely gotten the memo of what we do around here.

    Hand up, I'll take this one. Shouldn't have been cocky.
  8. liveforoctober
    I'm declaring this a scoring opportunity.
  9. liveforoctober
    I understand what is likely to happen in about 35 minutes... but I have very much enjoyed the Roger Clemens impersonation Sproat has given us through 2 innings.
  10. liveforoctober
    Sproat at 100mph! 6 pitch inning. Let's go.

    Umm, Brady Ebel with legit power? This is not a cheapie... https://www.milb.com/video/brady-ebel-homers-5-on-a-fly-ball-to-right-center-field-nick-monile-score

    Frias' first Single A at bat was a bases loaded RBI fielder's choice. He promptly stole 2nd. As I'm typing this Ebel just hit one out. 2-2 on the day for him. His arrow is pointing up.... We have so many good shortstops in the system it's hysterical.

    Cooper's nice start with the big league club does leave me intrigued about Jett. Both guys started slow, had a hot streak, then slowed up a bit again in AAA... Jett more than Pratt. But Pratt seems fine thus far handling big league pitching. Some guys are just gamers and better competition brings out the best in them. I see it a lot with Blake Burke and a little with Fischer, too. I have no way to predict it but I wonder how Jett would rise to the occasion if and when he gets his chance and I have a small hunch he will be a 'gamer' in this sense as well.

    That would be an amazing issue to have to deal with. Given our luck this year ... more DL stints are incoming and we will need everyone. I hope not though. If Gasser and Sproat end up getting starts in AAA that will mean good health up top and that would be a welcomed change.
  15. liveforoctober
    Yes definitely. Sorry I wasn't critiquing your thoughts on the lineup tonight ... just quoted you to expand on the lineup talk overall.
  16. liveforoctober
    I have no idea if there is a psychological effect for some guys when they hit in front of the run producers that they try and take more pitches vs being in a run producing spot and free swinging, etc While Chourio has thrived in the 2 spot - Yeli and Turang have regressed since being flipped (willing to be fact checked on that). An order of Turang, Chourio, Yeli, Contreras, Bauers just feels better to me? Flip Bauers and Yeli if we need to... that would be fine too. Anyone else?

    Lockridge late July :(
  19. liveforoctober
    I know this isn't the first time this has been talked about but I would be curious how he would do if he slid into the Drohan/Patrick role with them. I feel like his stuff would pair well as a follow to Gasser.
  20. liveforoctober
    I wonder if we can find a trade back partner for one of our top 2 for a later 1st and a future pick or two. OKC has a million picks in the future.... Maybe they want to bump up from 17 and throw us some good fortune.

    He is kind of like a penny stock. The ticker gets pumped and everyone jumps on for the climb up. You know you should take the profits and run but you get greedy and before you can blink twice the other shoe drops and you are down 30% on the trade. (this is not financial advice)
  22. liveforoctober
    Agreed. I don't know what Miami had to offer in terms of picks between now and then but the projection of Miami hopefully lands us in a great spot when those picks come due. Long, LONG term health of the team those could be incredible.

    Do kids these days know what 'pepper' is? Do they still play it? I feel like that could be a good nickname for Sal. Doesn't swing and miss much, most of his contact is able to be handled softly, etc
  24. liveforoctober
    5 pitch innings are >>>>
  25. liveforoctober
    Just some random poking around with Turang stats... found this which is not much but maybe of note. At bats when he swings at the 1st pitch: .310/.359/.548/.906 At bats when he takes the first pitch: .237/.376/.409/.784
