He is currently 38/42 among qualifying NL OFers in geometry. Terrible -
Here is a good trivia question I have been reminded of. Other than the MLB logo itself, can you name the only 2 mlb teams that do not have any white at all on their primary hat?
-
I never would have known Reyes. Pretty sure it was Willie Wilson in ‘82 and I’ll say Boggs in ‘87 but that is a complete guess, I have no recollection but I think that was around the time he was good. Got them both 1973 winner was Rod Carew
-
I also missed one since he was so far behind the leader, but 1973 George Scott
-
I think cooper hit like .351 the year Brett chased .400 and Coop came in 2nd. I honestly can’t remember one. Maybe Molitor in ‘87 with his 37 game hitting streak? Good guess. Here are all of our second place finishers (Brewers only). Can you name the winners? 2011 Braun 1987 Molitor 1982 Yount 1980 Cooper - Winner = George Brett
-
Hank Aaron? nicely done sir
-
Yelich is starting to sniff a batting title, can you name the only Milwaukee player to win one?
-
Makes me think of the time where Yo beat the Giants with the bat off of Randy Johnson. This was the only HR Randy Johnson ever gave up to an opposing pitcher. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/event_hr.fcgi?id=johnsra05&t=p

Stearns and Counsell- How much rope does each have?
topper09er replied to rickh150's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
The Indians will get to 90+ wins. You have to consider how many divisional games they still have remaining. And before bashing the win total, consider the 1997 Indians won the AL Central with a 86-75 record and then lost GM 7 of the World Series to the Marlins... I know, I said if needed. The point is that because of having automatic playoff births going to relatively small divisions, you can sometimes get a scenario where none of those teams belongs but gets in because they are the best of the rest. I do not think the Indians will win 78, but if that is all they won they would still make the playoffs. In the NFL, 4 team divisions make these undeserved playoff spots more likely to achieve. -
bases loaded on no hits, not acceptable in the majors Fredo. Also if Pina cant keep a pitch like that in front of him then he is providing nothing to this team.

12/32 is not much different than 10/30. Its not like GB is often #12 either. That said, I'll admit there's quite a difference between being in baseball's smallest market compared to football's smallest market. In baseball it is 8/30. Making a 1 game "playoff" does not count Also football has 4 team divisions, so slightly less competition for the one guaranteed playoff spot for 1 of 4 teams. Like the Indians this year who would make the playoff with 78 wins if needed. -
Glad to see Murphy take a meatball down mainstreet to give Turner a chance to run which he does not take
-
Feel bad for Soto, comes to Milwaukee but can't drink
-
Please just don't walk the leadoff hitter Williams
-
Phillips with such a long swing on the high heat, when Fielder was on he would pull the hands in on pitches like that and crush it
-
Plays like that make me think infield defensive stats are useless these days
-
Do you have a play index subscription?
-
You can use the handy tOPS+ for each split to see that even though we are 14/15 in bases loaded OPS, there is a wide spread in the stat and we are way off the average. Our OPS+ with the bases loaded relative to our normal OPS+ is 51. That is bad
-
So is Zimmerman still incapable of throwing a baseball for than 20 feet? Guerra has to know that and go right away on anything hit to Zim. Didnt matter but still we need to be more aware of these kinds of things.
-
That is hard to figure out, but we 11/15 in OPS with RISP overall
-
.547 OPS with bases loaded, only 14/15 this year in the NL, can't be historically bad. AZ only has a .519 OPS
-
so Jenks in the booth next? The face of the forgotten 90s Brewer logo.

Yes somewhat lesser known fact, a sac fly does not count against your average but does count against your OBP. It is why Ryan Braun had a lower postseason OBP than BA in 2008.
