Good job Mitchell. Awesome.
-
Let's get some pitches on this guy's arm..
-
That bullpen chart >>>>> Having Drohan and Patrick giving the rest of the pen full reset days is incredible. What a gift to be able to say "we need to get this guy some work" going into games... 6 of our 8 guys have only thrown once in the last 5 days. Incredible.
-
No Vaughn... But as someone mentioned earlier it would seem an easy transition to pinch hit Vaughn for Mitchell whenever necessary and move Bauers to left.
-
Payne's power does not make any sense to me. It seems like his weight is out completely on his front foot at contact. Exact opposite of Sal Frelick's swing.

I dunno, I would bet 90% of Twins fans couldn't have named a single starter we were throwing at them before that series started. We just beat the Cubs yesterday with 9 innings on Brandon Sproat and Shane Drohan. Go read through the Cubs Reddit game thread and see if Cubs fans knew anything about the two guys that just out pitched their ace. Some may be tired of the ho hum schtick but it likely is and will always be the main motivating button for 70% of our roster. We are a team of misfits and overlooked guys who out perform our projections partially BECAUSE our coach puts those chips on their shoulders. The few you named (Yeli, Bill, Brice, etc) are the guys who don't need it or who are motivated in a different way. But if Vaughn and Bauers and Megill and every starter we have not named Jacob or Woodruff, etc all gain a superpower because they believe they have been slighted by another team or org, etc... awesome. Let's lean into it.

I think Fischer just hit that ball out of the stadium.

Can I ask why? Being disrespected is such a big motivator to perform. If it doesn't happen naturally and you can manufacture it yourself to give yourself an edge .. isn't that a good thing? Michael Jordan was the king at creating fake disrespect from an opponent to light his own fire.

BRef numbers: Hamilton .4WAR Mona .2WAR If Mona -> Hamilton was the part of the trade the Brewers 'missed' on then this was the heist of the century. I don't mind someone liking Mona over Hamilton as a player but I'm pretty firm personally on who is the better fit for this specific team. Having a LH shortstop option to spell Ortiz has been a very underappreciated value add.
-
Amazing win last night. If the Cubs can beat Miz today that brings momentum right back to them going into the finale. If we take Gm 2 they might straight melt down. Their Reddit board last night was a treat.

You're an OG man. Respect.
-
Bunty Hamilton is incredible.
-
Having Drohan and Patrick in the pen has unlocked something.
-
How many teams can call up their AAA pitching staff to throw an entire MLB series and win the series with little help from the offense?
-
Crow can't come back up without an injury, so maybe he is rotation insurance if they stick with the 5 man?
-
Whole different meaning to "3 up, 3 down"..

You must not be following the chat. Ortiz got on base all 4 times today. Today we are mad at Hamilton and Rengifo and a little bit Gasser and probably still Perkins somehow. Check back in tomorrow for the usual Ortiz fury I would think. -
Just went through the play-by-play and it looks like an outfield assist double play to end the top of the 9th for the Sounds?
-
The Brewers have a sneaky (not so sneaky?) good crop of catchers in their system..

No and "pushing 30" (stealing 3 years) from a player coming off of TJ to fit a narrative of unworthiness is awesome. That's politician type stuff, well done. -

Are you talking about Gasser? You think he is almost 30yrs old? -

Re: Strzelecki ... that felt procedural to me? Even after the game when Murphy was talking about the plan for the night he mentioned Patrick/Anderson/Hall/Uribe (but didn't need anyone after Patrick) so Peter wasn't in the plans seemingly. I have a hunch this was the Brewers way of throwing him a bone and exposing him to waivers to let him see if he has MLB interest anywhere else? They just did a similar-ish thing with Waguespack earlier this month. He exercised an out clause, didn't find any takers, then re-signed with us back to the minors. I'm hypothesizing but if there is any merit to it I think it's a tip of the cap move by Milwaukee.
