    So Taillon vs Darvish (is that accurate?!) tomorrow for the right to get Dudley Boyz 3D'd through the proverbial AmFam table, huh? I will enjoy watching that one..

    Padres have squandered a few chances here early. 1-0 should probably be 3-0.

    I want to beat the Cubs. I really don't want to lose to the Cubs. I very much don't want Cubs fans in Milwaukee... all of that together makes me pull fairly hard for SD... although at this point in the season it is a pick your poison scenario.

    In 77 PA on the season with MKE - Haase hit .229/.289/.357 with an OPS of .647 and an OPS+ of 80. In 78 PA on the season with MKE - Jansen hit .254/.346/.433 with an OPS if .779 and an OPS+ of 117 Jansen was brought in to be an offensive upgrade to our backup C position and despite a disastrous start ... is exactly that. "I can't for the life of me" ... so bottom of the 9th inning we are down 1 run with guys on 2nd and 3rd and 2 outs and Ortiz is up at the plate. Your options to pinch hit are Haase and Jansen. You're taking Eric Haase?

    I'm not advocating for Seigler per se ... but his inclusion allows you to pinch hit both Jansen and Bauers at will. Mona can go play 1st if needed late and Seigler can cover the infield and obviously he can be the 3rd catcher. Lockridge makes a ton of sense for reasons stated above but Siegler does open up two of the guys who have swung the best bats as of late to be available at all times.

    Will be a close finish it seems with us and Philly. We are in STL and SD and then close against a good Reds rotation at home. Phi gets the DBacks then a couple of cupcakes in the fish and the twins who will be playing rookies. Hang onto your boots friends. Would be awesome to get out of the Cardinals series still up 3 games on PHI!.

    Latz has been a bullpen guy for Texas all season .... only has started a few games now lately with injuries. 60-70 pitches is probably what he gets ... so if we have a bit of patience we should be in to the bullpen in the 5th or 6th.

    I think about this scenario every few days or so... The likelihood of Civale getting dealt at the deadline if he hadn't spoken up in protest was still likely BUT there remains the chance that had he just bitten his tongue and toughed out a few months in a long reliever position, we probably would have found an injury with him in August to give him a vacation for a few weeks, and right now he would be eating up valuable innings to save our bullpen probably in spot starts as well as many multiple inning chances mid game. .. and while he has now found his way to a playoff team - he has limped into a 5+ ERA season and I'm guessing is now just hoping to get a major league offer next year? The domino effect is crazy..

    Does anyone have the updated stat on the Brewers record in games started by Peralta, Priester, and Woodruff since Woody came back? I can go count at some point... Just wondering if someone had it handy.

    I just mentioned to my brother that Made is on the exact same trajectory as Chourio. If Made rips up AA next year I wonder if Pratt becomes the hottest trade ticket in the league at the deadline...

    As expected, a total of 6 home games for us with him here in Appleton. Happy for us as Brewers fans, sad for us as TRats fans.

    Curse of Phillies Karen. 0-1 since the incident with a Trea Turner injury.
  13. liveforoctober
    I don't know what the Brewers general plan of action is, but the general rule with pitchers is a 25% increase year over year. I've also read 25-30 more innings each year... But 25% is what I've seen the most. If we are using that formula and Miz threw 97+ innings last year... He would be topping out at < 125 innings this year... Which is just about exactly where he is after today's start.
  14. liveforoctober
    Seigler should finish this game on the mound.

    Miz is different man. The number of pitching prospects we've had in our team's history that are as special as him can be counted on one hand. We are not risking his arm to save Jared Koenig's, respectfully. If we are that worried about the bullpen then start Tobias tomorrow and follow him up with Carlos and tell those two they get all nine innings regardless of what happens. Patrick? Sure. Hall? Sure. Myers? Sure. Use them. Ask for more. Keep Miz on whatever program you have installed for him with reasonable adjustments given this season's circumstances. If Miz gets hurt from overuse this season and it affects his future,.. it will be an unforgivable malpractice from this front office.

    There is a good argument to be made that Ashby is our third most important reliever.

    That is a frustrating loss if you are a Cubs fan. Good pitching effort but a punchless offense against a subpar opponent at home. Hate to see it :)

    Foul ball off his right knee. Frelick always has a locked front leg like this when he swings hard.. https://x.com/UnderdogMLB/status/1964417968378401006

    Re: Yelich.. unless he feels like he is going to play in the next 48 hours.. just IL him and get him right for October. We will hold onto the 1 seed without him ... but we are not winning it all without him. Call up Hoskins so he can get 60 at bats as a DH and be ready to smash it in the post season as well.

    Look at Jorge Alfaro helping the Brewers out this year after all with an RBI knock against the Cubbies...
  22. liveforoctober
    If we go .500 the rest of the way (10-10) ... that gets us to 97 wins and the Cubs would need to go 16-5 to overtake us. It would be great to go 12-8 or 13-7 (100 wins!) or something and not make it interesting for anyone... but just win every other at a minimum and it will take a Herculean effort from Counsell and Co to do it. Firmly in the driver's seat... just don't panic, play good baseball and for goodness sake stay healthy.
  23. liveforoctober
    Priester man.
  24. liveforoctober
    It's a great problem to have... but I can't justify sitting Collins.
  25. liveforoctober
    We are taking the guy who is competing for a batting title out of the lineup?
