    I liked Vogt in the Willy Wonka suit and Sogard(?) in the purple tiger striped suit. Garza looks like he was told they were going to play the Pirates.

    North of Campbellsport Its not "up north" when over half of the state is north of there...

    I've been impressed by Suter over his last couple starts but he did this last year before getting hit harder. If it comes down to Suter vs Woodruff, I take Woodruff and move Suter to the pen

    Nah. JJ is ARod 2.0. Trade him for prospects, reaquire him for peanuts.

    Dubon as starting 2B for MLB club in 2018?

    CC pretty much emptied the bench yesterday. So I was shocked to see Pina catching the last inning. I guess this explains why.

    I lived there for 11 years. 12,000 is generous. They may report based upon sales. Actually butts in seats is more like 4,000. To be fair, everyone reports sales, not the people who show up. At yesterday's brewer game, they reported 41k fans, which is near MP capacity. It looked more like low 30k range.

    Agree. He's been up 49 days and has only 13 appearances and 17 IP. He had 52 IP in AAA. At roughly 1/3 IP per day, he's on pace for around 93 innings for the year. He should get around 150 if he wants to be a Brewer starter next year. Yikes, I hope he doesn't reach 150 IP while pitching out of the BP this year. None of our BP guys should be reaching 100 IP out of the BP (with Hader's 52 at AAA, he would need 100 in 4 months). That is incredibly hard on an arm out of the BP.

    I'd say just about any other team, yes. But since Yost the Brewers pretty much let every team do whatever they want to them. Really? I have no problem with it. It (was) the 3rd inning. Play the game. We blew a 8-1 lead late like 4 days ago and the Nats have about the worst pen in the league. If they want to pile it on and we can't stop them, more power to them. Would you feel comfortable with a 8-0 lead in the 3rd with our pen? Me either. I have a bigger problem with our defense allowing Lind to steal. Shows a lack of concentration and focus even when you are losing badly. I'd be ashamed if I was one of the pitcher/catcher that allowed it. With Lind stealing its like the Nationals were trying to give us an easy out, but we just blew it.

    Just north of 100 ABs at R+ this year and 19 year old Gabriel Garcia is hitting 302/448/481/929. This after hitting almost identically last year at AZ. I would be surprised if he doesn't get a bump to A-ball this year yet.
  11. CheezWizHed
    5 in one inning and 6 in 2+. Ouch. So who wanted Blazek to get a SP spot? Add in Adam Lind getting a steal off of Peralta and our pitching is a joke today.

    Congrats GAME05. I took a step back 6 months ago. I got there and proved myself. A manager left and now I'm back up to where I was at my previous job. You never know what might happen when you work hard.

    [sarcasm]Personally, I think Brewcrewin07 is actually Mark Attanasio. Thus proving a rift between MA and DS. Then poor MA comes here to vent about the lack of trades....[/sarcasm]

    I also think David Stearns is pretty brilliant. Hopefully Swarzak pitches like he has all season, would be a big pickup. And went to harvard haha though not law school. Rick Hahn did go to Harvard Law. David Sterns [sarcasm]just[/sarcasm] went to Harvard.

    Oh course he'd pitch great tonight after I make a post about him being the 5th best pitcher in system.... Now call him the 10th best! Ortiz's main problem is his endurance. Weight might have some implications to that, but injuries have more. He needs to stay healthy and get his innings up. I think that is one reason why his results are sporadic - endurance. But most scouting reports are very high on his abilities, which is why the scouting lists have him higher rated. High ceiling/low floor type pitcher. Granted with some of the new reports of Burnes' FB, Ortiz might legitimately drop not due to his performance at all. I'm still not putting Peralta in this group however. High K rate is interesting, but I wonder if he has enough pitches to stay an SP. Or if he will need to move to the BP.

    Play it out. Because I live in reality. #realitybuzzkill

    RHP Corbin Burnes Best Case comp: Michael Wacha Likely comp: Jered Eickhoff Worst Case comp: Doesn't make it in the majors/Jed Bradley Burnes has already exceeded Bradley.

    He pinch hit against the Cubs late in the makeup game on July 6th. He was called up when Sogard went on the DL. I knew he was up. Just not why...

    *Hiura yes, Kiura is my poor attempt at a nickname. K Hiura = Kiura as in Kiura ("cure a") franchise of never winning a World Series I'll let it go Thank you.

    In my mind "Core" guys are those you are thinking could likely retire with the team. At this definition, I doubt any of these guys are core. But for a longer term player: Nelson - he has always been a bit of a tease to be dominant with control being his biggest bugaboo, but I think last year's loss of control was a fluke; a worst case outlier. This year is interesting to me because he has changed that way he pitched. For years he was forced to be a lowball pitcher. And now he moved up to a high-ball pitcher. As long as he controls his curveball, he will be effective (same with Anderson and Knebel there). Finally, as a pitcher, we need to take a chance that it is legit. Shaw - The simple reason for him to be considered core is we don't have a replacement. Erceg might be, but is a few years away at this point. His MiLB numbers and scouting back up that he is a legit MLB bat. Maybe not a 900+ bat, but certainly a 750-850 type hitter. With no one to push him out, what other choice do we have? If Erceg starts knocking on the door, then you evaluate how long he stays or if he is trade bait. Santana - I think he is probably the most "legit" of the three. Ironically, he is also the most replaceable with other prospects knocking at the door.

    I guess (last season and when the Bulls were actually good) 47-48% from the field and 5-6 assists per is bad these days. He was a double digit per in assists during the time the Bulls were good. Add the 85-90% from the FT line. He hasn't been above 5 assists per game in 5 years. In 2012, he had 7.9 assists per game, which is still a ways from double digits. He only shot close to 47-48% in three seasons(last year and 2008-2010). Add in that he shoots 3pters under 30%. He has no value to this team, IMO.

    That seems high from what I've heard about Angel in the past. Was it the stadium gun? SBNationhad him at this (also 2 years ago) On Thursday, Ventura worked at 90-92 while topping out at 94. That was my perception of him. I'd be surprised if he was topping at 97. And That has always been pretty high on Ventura in the Link Reports. Perhaps he has more recent info?
  24. CheezWizHed
    There is good and bad of signing veterans. I'd have loved to have Grienke and his production on his LAD contract. The tricky part is knowing who is worth it and who isn't. So, if Shaw is the mayor of Ding Dong city, then Pablo must be the king.
  25. CheezWizHed
    I'm just glad that Shaw is a Brewer because if they hadn't, this thread would be an argument on whether or not we should pick up Panda.
