  1. Brewers should ask for review. He was in the baseline blocking the plate without the ball
  2. I like the Turang and Mitchell picks. I'd like to target guys with good line drives and easy power, not necessarily pure sluggers. I think of the Overbay and Cirillo types as being the future MLB response to Statcast-derived pitching. So basically pure hitters that make contact rather than launch angle studs.
  3. Was just looking at his career. Was it derailed by injuries? He always had good numbers, but was out of affiliated ball for years
  4. the simple reason divisional games help is that they both count as a win for us and a loss for the rival. In effect, one game produces two desirable outcomes. Now it would be really nice if we can take 3 of 4 from the Reds before the break (leaving us up 8 games). Really crazy to play 7 straight against the Reds. Overall, taking 4-5 of the 7 would be huge.
  5. yes, this was mentioned in the Journal Sentinel yesterday.
  6. Hummel with three walks and two runs. What more does he have to do to earn a call-up to Milwaukee? Pretty sure a callup would be a precursor to him getting DFA'd. He hasn't been on the 40-man roster, and he would inevitably be part of the roster churn. They'd likely rather keep him in AAA for depth and development now.
  7. Not really clones. From what it sounds like, Tellez has a low strikeout rate. I think there's a good chance they they both are on the team next year. Vogelbach DH/1b, Tellez DH/1b, Hiura 1b/DH/utility OF/2b
  8. Wasn’t he hitting like this in ‘18 before his torrid 2nd half??
  9. Yeli has never been a true power hitter. He’s been a whole-field hitter with a good eye that manages to hit quite a few homers. He’ll be fine. It would help if we had another bat in our lineup. He’s missing hittable pitches, but he’s also being pitched carefully
  10. Except A-Rod signed as a free agent with the Rangers before being traded to the Yankees with cash for Alfonso Soriano. The M’s never compensated anyone to take A-Rod
  11. Cody Ponce tomorrow. He wasn’t great in our minors as a reliever, now he’s starting against us. Feeling good about our chances if the good Lauer shows up
  12. Is this true? Mitchell, Small, Ray, Jungmann Turang, Grisham, Medeiros, Covey
  13. Like that we spotted them a touchdown lead, I put an in-game bet in for Brewers $100 to win $800, then brewers put up 14 unanswered
  14. Given that they’ll need available relievers tomorrow, this logically is a 1-day call up.
  15. hasn't our current 3b been both playing good offense and defense?
  16. the Brewers previously announced tomorrow is a bullpen day. So I'm guessing Ashby won't be activated until tomorrow, and will possibly pitch the first 2-4 innings.
  17. The late homer was a fastball at the letters, which has been the primary source of his problems for two seasons. It was very encouraging.
  18. Vogelbach is cheap and will be cheap next year. I’ve believed all off-season that he was kept around with hopes of the DH becoming universally adopted (initially for this year, but now for next). Since he’s been adequate at the bag, that helps both short and long term
  19. Interesting seeing Wilson playing some SS of late. Turang really has improved. I didn’t realize Lutz had fallen off so much
  20. This is pretty harsh. They were both highly successful defensive players that were able to start in MLB for a number of years. Is any MLB player a failure? I’d argue no. Now they were likely overvalued due to their defensive skills and position, but that’s a fault of these lists. Just like OBP Is the more important component of OPS, arm and glove are less important of the 5 tools.
