    im mostly curious to hear about velocity. his control is abysmal right now but i would think he can figure that out.
  2. cragi
    there might be something to this strategy of having him pitch 162 games
  3. cragi
    I guess it really depends on whether Woody and/or QP can get healthy enough to compete effectively and long enough to build confidence to stick with for the playoff run. Wouldnt expect anything significant happening until close to the deadline.

    im a huge fan of Claude and been using it as my primary AI for the past year, but its not the best tool for research. Grok and Perplexity for research. Chourio was #1: https://www.mlb.com/news/jackson-chourio-is-brewers-first-no-1-prospect

    I think Sproat is built for the pen also. similar game to Ashby and cant go deep into games
  6. cragi
    I get the feeling they are comfortable filling the infield from within unless a favorable deal falls in their laps. I think pitching is more likely. Too many question marks between Koenig, Priester, Woodruff, Woodford, Megill. Zerpa out. They dont trust the AAA arms yet. Sproat seems more suited for the pen right now. This is a solid group for the regular season but is it enough for playoffs where top of rotation matters? Are they going to approach playoffs with low MLB experience in the starting pitchers?

    seems with Mitchell, once the book was out on him not hitting the high fastball, he's kind of fallen apart across the board. Maybe some time at AAA could fix that, but its going to be Ortiz-ugly if he stays up trying to work it out

    Cubs had a massive lead over the Brewers this time last year and then crashed. Brewers have had more than their share of injuries this year but should be in good shape if QP / Wood are able to return

    yeah the brewers did seem interested in signing him before he got too big but there didnt seem to be movement in Miz's camp and Miz seems to be betting on himself to stay healthy and be an ace.
  11. cragi
    i dont see the brewers giving up a top-tier talent like fischer. They can offload from a position of strength at OF/1B
  12. cragi
    Seems time to deal some excess 1B/OF for pitching to make room for some of these guys. Black and Bauers should have some value. Not like we dont have another wave of outfielders coming right behind them, either.
  13. cragi
    brewers look really gunshy on these challenges right now
  14. cragi
    That was my belief to start the season as well. However, thats not how its playing out and maybe i shouldnt have qualified it as "starting" pitching but another reliable arm somewhere. Last year's starting pitchers were Peralta, Priester, Miz, Quintana, and Woody. Only Miz is standing right now from that group and he's even sidelined at the moment. We had high expectations for Zerpa. Koenig gone. Sproat doesnt seem to be ready. So yeah, lots of potential in the minors, but I think they will look for another arm that can be plugged in.

    Arnold made pretty clear when they traded away Durbin/Mona/Siegler that they were expendable because they didnt want to block prospects (Pratt, Made, Fischer, Pena, etc). Then they signed Pratt, making their intent clear. Everyone else is just a very temporary fix and someone is going to be filling 3B/SS soon from within. Brewers need starting pitching right now and not much else.
  16. cragi
    yeah its actually remarkable what this team has been able to sustain without a good number of their best players. In the past, a single one of them would be enough to tank the team. If they can hold serve with these guys, they could be sitting pretty in a couple months.
  17. cragi
    any updates on Pena yet?
  18. cragi
    probably not the best time for snap judgment on a team when 3 of the top 5 OPS guys from last year's team are injured and you've just faced both Cy Young winners back to back
  19. cragi
    shhh. im trying to get to my first T-Rats game of the season next week

    gotta be thinking Lara for Perkins at this point
  22. cragi
    That seems to be the entire staff this year if you think about it. Just makes me wonder if the Brewers are adjusting their approach to the season to preserver the arms more. Remember they dont look at pitch count but rather the number of high intensity pitches
  23. cragi
    yeah that popped out at me as i was reading through it. try an inflation number of 5+% and curious to see those results instead. though historically, 2% is fair. Also, the win-win of this for both sides is that it motivates the Brewers to bring up sooner rather than later. He could lose a year waiting around otherwise. i think they are looking at serious inflation plus getting him up sooner
  24. cragi
    kind of surprised not to see Fischer at this point. Seems like a number of guys have fallen in the rankings.
  25. cragi
    yeah i had to chuckle at one commenter posting during the last game how bad this offense is right now with the injuries. i get they could be betteer, but having the most runs in baseball right now hardly qualifies as "awful"
