I haven't been following Nelson's minor league starts too closely, but what are we thinking for pitch limits? 50? 80? Let it rip? -
Keston Hiura called up, Shaw optioned
topper09er replied to jjgott's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I know. The Angels are 26-30 in Mike Trout games, I guess he sucks now. Shaw's OPS is barely higher than Hiura's SLG right now. Hiura's batting average against lefties is higher than Shaw's OPS against them right now...by 100 points. -
If they are going with a righty 1B would have been a nice chance to start Braun over there with Gamel in LF.
-
2 outs, tied game, bottom of 10th, runner on 2nd. If Buckner keeps the ball in the infield the game doesn't end on that play. Even if he gets the out the game just moves to the 11th, so its not like that was the world series clinching out.
-
I mean, it is objectively true he is most famous for that error. Maybe you don't need to lead with it, but he would have already been long forgotten without it. His strikeouts were low and average high but his OBP was below average for this time (thanks to that fancy new +stats). Buckner's AVE/OBP/SLG relative to his league was 110/97/104. So his super low strikeout rate is not all that impressive considering what he gave up in production to avoid strikeouts. He is the modern day Fred Snodgrass. First paragraph of his wikipedia page: ...He is best known for dropping a key fly ball in the 1912 World Series...
-
Nice, where did you get that stat from?
-
Have to disagree, the pitcher was throwing a shutout and our bullpen has been bad all season
-
OK fine, just no more innings that count in the majors
-
Yep. Leaving Davies in is a hindsight is 20/20 decision. You gotta have faith in your late inning guys to keep the game competitive. If they can't, then perhaps they shouldn't be your late inning relievers. I would prefer our manager figure out who should and should not be a late inning pitcher without finding out the hard way. Claudio's 5.5 ERA and 1.100 OPS against RHB are a few pointers
-
Yup, and now sadly for Claudiohe needs to be DFA'd to protect us from CC misusing him. It would be like putting Aguilar in CF, he has no chance for success.
-
He would have been facing the top of the Twins order for the 4th time this game. Not that the results would have been any worse, but statistically speaking, that's a bad idea. Not if your other option is a mediocre high school pitcher Claudio
-
Massive swing from Aguilar. Last year he throws his hands at that and gives us a chance at least
-
Ok Braun time to show this Eric Sogard pitcher a major league bomb. Edit now he can watch it from the bench
-
Hey with 2 crappy grounders Hiura got his K rate below 40%. Progress
-
We are last in the NL with .49 runs/PA with R3 < 2 out, not counting 0-3 tonight
-
Why do we even have a coaching staff. Every player takes the same approach every single AB of the entire season.

Can Yelich hit 50 home runs this season?

I agree but it is May 28 and he is 2nd in the NL -
Can Yelich hit 50 home runs this season?
topper09er replied to TURBO's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Yelich has a shot to be the first player since Chuck Klein in 1932 to lead the league in HR (38) and SB (20). Willie Mays did lead his league in SBs and HRs but never in the same season. Yelich is first in HR and 2nd in SB right now. 2 HR lead over Bellinger and 2 SB behind Jarrod Dyson -
Reds are hitting an NL worst .218 as a team. Ouch
-
And Burnes still leads the league in homers allowed
-
Barnes must be close to a record for % of pitches that hit the dirt
-
That hit is on you. Apologize to Burnes
-
That flyout is gone at Helfaer field
-
Typical power hitter, thinks he is too good to learn how to bunt
