  1. Where are we in terms of challenges won from our hitters vs. others teams? I cannot imagine we are not bottom 5.
  2. Feels like Henderson is the obvious choice to come up if an IL stint is needed.
  3. Does anyone know of any reason other than injury that would cause such a velo drop from the onset of a game?
  4. I am giving that the LFO stamp of approval for a productive inning.
  5. Sal Frelick ends up on a knee after swinging more than any player I've ever seen. To think of it ... he sometimes ends up on a knee while taking pitches.
  6. That's a great at bat. Maybe strikes but borderline calls to go down 0-2. Works back even and squares on one. Good job Luis!
  7. I'm hypothesizing here but I am assuming Murphy is looking at opposing pitcher splits and filling in bodies to correspond. I don't know what Soroka's splits are against R/L but I'm assuming it is wild enough that Murphy wanted 8 LH bats in the lineup. The names Jones, Hamilton, Frelick, etc mean less than the (L) or (S) next to their name. Whether that is the correct move is debatable, I would also be playing Lockridge over Jones right now without thinking twice... but I'm assuming that is what is happening.
  8. Beautiful. Oppo too. Would love to see this jumpstart him for good. 2 strong weeks and he would be in Milwaukee.
  9. I was excited to get the lefties in the game after Rodriguez got pulled. The at bats from Mitchell, Frelick, and Hamilton were umm... definitely at bats I guess.
  10. There are many things to talk about on that play. Rengifo looks like he is holding or limping on 3 different spots on his body. Great job Ortiz. Great heads up Lockridge.
  11. I was just going to comment. Maybe he has given up some inherited runners that make it seem different.. I can't speak on the peripherals but an ERA of 2.19 surprised me.
  12. I trust Ortiz the most at the plate out of those bottom 3 and that is .... saying something.
  13. Will be good to get Rodriguez out of the game so we can insert Mitchell/Black and have some more juice top to bottom...
  14. I am requesting a body language expert to weigh in on Blake Perkins.
  15. Chourio walked and Vaughn singled in their first Nashville at bats...
  16. Another guy with an OPS over .800! Power hitting offense..
  17. I don't disagree with this and it is the product of upwards pressure coming from a great system as well as establishment on top. I think(?) one of the unique nuances of developing a minor league system well that doesn't get talked about enough (not that I can speak to it at all - I'm hypothesizing) is creating trade capital from non-trade capital sources. If the Brewers can turn Will Childers into a tradeable asset, if they can 'day trade' Tyler Black's hypothetical good May/June stretch, if they can graduate Brian Fitzpatrick into a major league contributor which makes someone like DL Hall or Jared Koenig expendable, etc - you are creating excess system value that can be harvested. The Brewers haven't been perfect by any means but we just haven't traded a lot of prospects that we have regretted in recent memory and I think that speaks to both the return being optimal but also that maybe we have maximized abilities here that show well on the trade block.
  18. Brewers' 10th rd pick in '22 out of Rutgers. Big Ten product! The Brewers have grown and are grooming some decent bullpen arms in Nashville right now. Childers is also putting himself into the call up conversation. The wheels keep turning.. Hoping for the best for Fitz!
  19. I'm joking/not joking but having Black's plate discipline/contact ability on the bench JUST to pinch hit for Ortiz for the remaining 45 bases loaded at bats he will get yet this year is probably worth +25 runs to us and worth the roster spot. Blue?
  20. I know this will shock everyone but up here in Appleton the weather is unfavorable again. I was planning on going to the game but it is currently raining and 40+ degrees. I haven't seen a delay announcement yet but wouldn't be surprised.
