    I thought the Cubs were supposed to be in 1st place after this series?
  2. nate82
    Probably but it is baseball nothing ever goes as expected.
  3. nate82
    I thought the Brewers were supposed to be non competitive this series?

    That Rodgers jersey looks like a Bears jersey but I think it is an alternate Packers one. Otherwise I would say nice troll by that person!

    The knob of the bat should follow the ball’s path everything else is irrelevant.

    I still believe the Brewers plan for next year is to compete unless they are absolutely overblown with an offer for Burnes or Woodruff. Adames maybe traded in the off season to the Dodgers but nailing down a return for that is extremely difficult. Adames still brings elite level defense at SS and his bat this year has been absolutely awful but better than what the Dodgers have been putting out there. I don't believe the Dodgers see Lux as an everyday SS and instead see him more as a 2B.

    I still believe height is overrated in baseball or at least people seem to put too much weight into it. I would rather draft or sign someone based on their athleticism and their bat skills for hitters and pitching mechanics for pitchers over what their height is or isn't. If the player is a 1B only type of a player sure take height into consideration. But that only really tells me that they shouldn't be drafted high or signed to a large signing bonus. If someone is a 1B only defensively I don't really want to draft or sign them unless they are an absolute can't miss prospect like a Harper, Ohtani, Bonds, Thomas, etc...

    One that I have been recently watching is Metatron. A lot of good information on medieval times if you are into that. https://www.youtube.com/@metatronyt

    HUH? He only swung at one in that inning unless you are counting the one that was being called a strike all game long.

    I don't believe a catcher can do much about it other than complain to the umpire. It is the umpires responsibility to make sure the batter is inside the batters box and not the catcher. I don't think the umpire would have allowed for Contreras to move any further back as they are going to stand where they feel comfortable calling balls and strikes. This is really the umpires responsibility.

    I know I should probably just put this in the what is bugging me thread but I think it is better to put it here. I was going through some Tony Gwynn interviews and some other interviews with other players and I have come to the conclusion that some posters on here would have hated Gwynn as a hitting coach. This is mostly on his thoughts on stances or the lack there of. Gwynn didn't see stances as being all that important to hitting.

    Power isn't just home runs. If Frelick doesn't develop some better exit velocities soon he is just going to be a slap hitting singles hitter. Which is valuable as long as his speed holds up and that is only a hamstring injury away from being gone. Exit velocity or hard hit or squaring up or whatever you want to call it is crucial for a batter. So him being at the bottom of the league in exit velocity is concerning and he needs to turn that around. Right now Frelick is having a similar problem that Gwynn had earlier in his career and that is handling the inside fastball. He has to learn how to turn on that pitch otherwise pitchers are going to take advantage of him there. Add that up with his low exit velocity which means he is not getting the barrel of the bat to the ball. He is just swinging and just barely making contact.

    It is a MLB Network game tonight so scheduling time is from MLB and not the Dodgers. The Mariners @ Royals are already scheduled for the afternoon game and the two evening games on MLB Network are Brewers @ Dodgers or Dbacks @ Padres.

    OK Troll.

    It is not you should look up extraterritorial jurisdiction. If the age of consent is 16 in another country as a US citizen the age of consent is still 18 for you and you can and will be charged with statutory rape. https://www.justice.gov/criminal-ceos/citizens-guide-us-federal-law-extraterritorial-sexual-exploitation-children

    Yeah I don't think Frelick is going to be a good MLB regular unless he starts to turn on inside FB's at a better rate. He is looking more like Juan Pierre with a better hit tool.
  17. nate82
    What was Frelick swinging at? That wasn't even close to the plate was he swinging at an imaginary batter in the other box?
  18. nate82
    Some how Freeman has gone 0-4 in this game and is being out hit by Rojas, Outman, Heyward and Hernandez.

    I know CC wanted to let the bullpen have a breather for a bit but you have to remove Houser after the error.
  20. nate82
    It looks like Acuna should get to 60 SB's this year and may get to 30+/60+ season. I think Acuna by far is the NL MVP and there really isn't anyone else close. This feels like the Trout years where he was the MVP by default in the AL.
  21. nate82
    After 64 pitches and this should be Houser's last inning which is just crazy. As that is 5 solid innings from Houser but you can't really let him start the next inning at the top of the order. I wish this were a Burnes or Peralta start like this as it would save the bullpen a game but you can't really put Houser out there for another inning.
  22. nate82
    Crazy that it has been that long.
  23. nate82
    It sucks that Houser really can't be trusted going through the lineup more than twice. At about 60 pitches in the 5th and he should really be out of the game after this inning.
  24. nate82
    Hmmm I thought only the Brewers that sucked with runners at 1st and 2nd with no outs?
  25. nate82
    When was the last time there was a 20/60 player? By 20/60 I mean 20 HR's and 60 SB's.
