I enjoyed watching that game more than I thought I would tbh. It won't be must watch TV for me or anything but I will definitely flip it on sometimes in the afternoon if they are airing replays of the night before
-
Wow, that escalated quickly! I really hope it's true. Conflicting information. Keith Law says it isn't true. Jessica Kleinschmidt, & Bernie Pleskoff say they have heard the same thing as Plouffe

I actually think it'll help. We won't have to worry about anyone's innings limits now.
-
Yea I can't imagine they will go through the logistical nightmare of rescheduling games. I'd guess they'll just play with an unbalanced schedule. Even if that gives some teams an unfair advantage
-
At this point I would be shocked if it is played in Milwaukee. At this point I kind of will be shocked if it's played. All it takes is one member of one team to contract the virus and an entire team then needs to be quarantined

If we hadn't signed Anderson we'd be looking at an opening day rotation of Woodruff, Houser, Lindblom, Peralta, Burnes with Shelby Miller as our top fill in option. No thanks
-
So is last season better when we started with the young guys in the rotation and they all bombed immediately? I'd personally rather the vets hold down to start and as more starters are needed we fill them with young guys who have earned a shot. Unless Peralta or Burnes dominant for an extended stretch and force their way into the rotation.
-
I doubt he's solely talking about his ST stats. Especially with pitching, you need to look past the stats to his stuff...and how hitters are reacting to his stuff. Burnes is downright filthy and it shows when you watch him pitch. If you want the best 5 arms to open in the rotation, you'd have to pick Burnes. I would be slightly less annoyed by Burnes opening in AAA than Peralta, only because he was so incredibly lost in 2019. I could get behind him starting in AAA for a few weeks to make sure his stuff plays well against AAA hitters on a regular basis. One of Lindblom/Anderson should open in the pen. Woodruff, Houser, Lauer, Peralta, and one of Lindblom/Anderson in the rotation please. So I'm confused? You don't consider Burnes one of the 5 best arms then? Or do? For me, I need to see Burnes be good for an extended stretch in the minors before I trust him to pitch in the major league rotation. I'd go Woodruff, Houser, Anderson, Lindblom, Lauer, with Peralta getting the first shot after an injury and then if Burnes keeps this up he can have the second shot either due to injury or poor play by another SP
-
I personally don't bring ST results into the equation at all unless it's used as a tie breaker of sorts. On one hand we can't look at guys like Burnes and use ST stats as a reason to give him the job while also disregarding guys like Hader, Garcia, etc and their poor results so far. I think Burnes should go to AAA and if he can keep pitching well he will definitely get a shot this season to pitch in our rotation
-
What makes things interesting is if you go on each of their last starts this is how our current starters lineup for their first game in the rotation 26th: Lindblom & Lauer 27th(off day): Anderson 28th: Houser 29th: Woodruff So it seems like we still have some shuffling around to do. I have heard the rumor that they might use opening day as a bullpen day since they have the following day off
-
Hmm....something creative for Opening Day?
-
Urias should be playing in games by the end of the week -
So we all know that realistically you need 8ish pitchers for a full season. I'm sure Peralta will get plenty of starts this season.
-
I think Bickford & Rasmussen each have a real shot to be big time bullpen contributors this season
-
No opts out and a full no trade clause according to Nightengale
-
I gotta say it is really nice knowing we will have Yelich & Hiura anchoring our lineup for the foreseeable future
-
Also worth noting, Arcia is making 2.2 million and Gamel 1.4 million. That's a lot of money to pay someone to play in AAA as depth. We might have to option these guys for brief spells if everyone happens to be healthy at the same time, but adding Morrison as a permanent fixture would force us to have 1-2 of these optionable guys down all the time(or traded). So let's even say both Gamel & Arcia make the OD roster over LoMo. Arcia goes down when Urias comes back right? Unless of course there is an injury C Narvaez/Pina 1B Smoak 2B Hiura SS Urias 3B Sogard/Gyorko LF Yelich CF Cain RF Garcia/Braun Util: Holt OF: Gamel
-
CC has also never had 5 bench guys for a long stretch of time. I really don't see the 13th position player getting more than a start every 10 days or so. Whether that is LoMo or Gamel. Also are we sure Arcia sticks around after Urias is back? Urias, Arcia, Gyorko, Holt, Sogard is alot of overlap when Arcia can be simply optioned
-
He doesn't, this Logan Morrison stuff is getting ridiculous. He had 15 good at bats in the first half of spring, many against non-mlb caliber pitchers. He could mash for 2 more weeks and would still be very unlikely to crack the roster, because small sample and he has zero versatility. It's way more likely the Brewers are talking him up and hoping to trade him for anything of value 2-3 weeks from now. When has Stearns ever kept a guy with options over a guy without options if it's close? Especially for the last guy on the bench who will rarely play
-
Anyone think this was a MA special? I wouldn't be surprised if MA was the driving force behind this.
-
Yep, & Counsell seems adept at getting the most out of his bullpen.
-
It is pretty crazy we're in a time where the Brewers have locked in their MVP talent while the Red Sox traded theirs away and the Cubs are signaling they might need to trade theirs
