  1. Let's chat about Reds here. They beat up on a 3rd game started rookie Atl pitcher that somehow squeaks in top 100mlb rankings with a 60-55-45-45 overall 55? His 2 seasons prior were 5+ERA. Braves brought him up after 7 good starts this year. Surprise 3.2 5R votto hit 2 HRs. De la Cruz a cycle. Most of the rest nada. Votto's 3R HR was after 2 Hit batters. Reds allowed 10runs. Kudos 12game win streak. how many wins/record did Tampa start with? 13. Opened 29-7 and just 23-19 since. They'll revert to their talent and start playing 18-24 ball. They have 27 comeback wins, a RP who's 8-1 with a fip over 5. They can't sustain what they've accomplished. SPs putting them behind and bullpen outperforming Fip with offense coming back to win. They do look like they have a lock down closer. De la Cruz is doing great through 15games. Let's see when pitchers adjust once finding a weakness how well he continues.
  2. Swap Wiemer and Adames in the batting order. Wait for results. Wiemer is virtually carrying a higher slg pct the last 30games than Adames is carrying OPS.
  3. I am on the side to not trade Frelick unless he brings a return with say 4years of control. The idea sits what may the FO use to acquire a large addition to the team. I like the bats future, but not so much the pitching future. Does the FO think this year is the last year to get to a WS with the likes of Burnes/Woodruff/Peralta? Knowing there's a sell off coming this offseason that should recoup some of the losses going for it this season? I am on the unpopular (no doubt) feeling the team should just keep all these guys through team control and let them walk(2-3 QOs) because it should see the bats get a season+ of experience with the pitching to have the best real shot at a WS. The franchise needs 1 WS win. I don't care about not getting a big return for Burnes/Woodruff etc. Win a damn WS. Royals did it. I see this roster moving that way this time next year. Uribe with Williams. Quero/Contreras C/DH/1b Chourio/Turang/Black/Wiemer/Mitchell/Frelick. Still have your Big 3 +Ashby. Heck maybe even Carlos Rodriguez. 1 year together. Vs none if they make trades. Problem is trade away any of the big 3, Adames, etc. The outside fans are going to dwindle because the Hader trade. The Burnes Arb controversy. Just continues to look on the outside the team doesn't care about winning.
  4. Well it's the logical OF atop the prospect rankings seeing as Mitchell is out the remainder of season. Wiemer being capable to CF and RF being RH. Chourio the 19 old who will arrive to the team sooner than later. Yelich LH. Turang LH. Mitchell returns LH. It'd probably work out with Mitchell as trade bait the other way if he were healthy. His team control is accumulating the days though til he returns from the IL to be playing again or option. Frelick still at 0. Not on a 40man too. That's going to be a big appeal. Until he's called up, gotta feel he's the biggest trade piece prospect they would trade.
  5. Oof I misread the option as a team option. So it's a player option? From a trading stand point Gives bigger reason for Miami to be open in trading Soler. But he's just a rental now which reduces by a lot what I'd think is offered. Which makes the amount of teams that would trade for him larger. No way they pony up that competitive price. Ah well guess I'll have to search for a new target.
  6. You should lose games when you only collect 3hits. They lost both in this series. You need 3runs to give your pitchers a chance not 3hits. Adames absolutely the most at fault for this teams offense. Hasn't had an Xbh in 12games now. 8 singles in 48ABs. 4BBs. .166/231/166 for a .397 OPS. MLB shows his last 30 games at .168/.223/.301 for a 524OPS. Your #3 hitter. AZ trots out a rookie batting 328/400/698 over his last 30games. 1.098 OPS. And yet we'll see Willy at 3 or 4 every game the rest of this month. Figured I go as back and it's at 43games for Adames. 174PAs 2SF. 157ABs 26hits 3 doubles. 6HRs. 17RBI 14BBs:51Ks 1HBP. Totals to .165/238/299 -537OPS 12 GS 2nd in order 26 GS 3rd in order 5GS 4th in order. That's a long time consistently batting 165-168 occupying the best batter spots nearly 85pct of his last 43games started.
  7. 0-11 1bb 2ks today. Bb immediately revolted by Miller gidp. 😂
  8. Meanwhile a bb, single+error, and a liner that squeaks past 2bUrias scores 2 runs next half of the inning.
  9. Certainly feels that way. Top order bottom order winning games. Hasn't felt like middle has won one for us in a while...now we see why.
  10. Should have been out of the inning after Perdoma K. +6 of stress. 13 extra pitches on Teheran's arm through 5. Likely it vs pitching in the 6th. Wake up Offense and support him! And called it. 5IP for Teheran. Way to go ump +2bbs -4ks for his line. Got AZ to Crew bullpen 1inning early.
  11. 3rd K. +2 more pitches. Just when it'd been a few innings of good calls. 4th k 2nd turned into a walk.
  12. 2ks Teheran doesn't have. But does have 5 more pitches thrown cuz of it.
  13. Ump already inconsistent missed 2 calls. Marte should have k'd vs walked. Next batter calls strike further outside that actually was a ball. Bases loaded as I type this..and Teheran gets out of it!
  14. You want one I'll give you one. Jorge Soler from Miami. Big LHP killer. Probably swap some ML talents along with prospect talents to make this work. We'd be looking for some of our regulars like Urias/Anderson/Adames/Winker/Teheran/Miley to work around with whose higher value at that time intrigues Miami to replace with. Maybe the landing place for Frelick. Atm doesn't make sense for Miami. But If I'm the Brewers he's the RHB needed in this lineup over the LHB Winker.
  15. Yeah that's kinda hard to be mad at Devin. When a guy takes 2 of his changeups that cross the plate but just low of the zone? If they are a fastball that's a strike in the top 1/3rd of the zone they just watched go by. Batter is supposed to swing at that. He got lucky guessing a changeup coming twice and took them hoping it'd be ball. I'd be mad at Devin if he walked a guy because he couldn't throw anything near over the plate. That he can't do unless he was pitching around a hot Carroll.
  16. On paper the Brewers should be running away with this division. But once again multiple bats are hitting below projections. A few injuries. SPs like Burnes/Peralta hover 4ERA or higher vs low 3s. Woodruff currently out of action but will return. Winker's HR finally, maybe jumps his underperfoming self to play his projections moving forward(he hit 3HRs in AAA)
  17. By my counts ump is 6 in favor and 8 against 14 missed calls. Largest one just scored in our favor.(Urias) Contreras with a 2run 2b! Let's go and win this.
  18. The debate is 2011 playoff teams were 4 from each league. Today it's 6 teams. Looked at 2011 team and they were .500 and better from 9-9 that season. This 2023 team is now 13games Below .500. 73games in to the season. The only reason they have any playoff chance is because the division leader is 3games over .500 on an 84.4win total on the season. Not 90games like 2011. The date you start at they were on pace for 85.76 wins. 2023 Cards now sit at a 66.58 win pace. I'll take 4.25 wins and luck outperform for 1 month vs 17.82 wins in last 89games/3months. They had 7.5games behind Atl and 8.5games Milw. That's it. 5th best record(tied) in the NL on that date. They are 5th in the division needing to jump 4teams. Not just 1 out of 2 collapsing. Atl on that date should have won 96games. They underperformed 7games vs the +5 by Stl.
  19. On Cardinals and 2011-today. More teams can make playoffs then in 2011. So that last seen 12% is putting that in to the equation. Every worry that their team will have a hot stretch ignores a team like Cincy having a 9game and counting win streak. What does it matter when the Brewers or Cubs match that win output a week or 2 earlier or later than the stretch forthcoming by the Cards. A's won 7 straight iirc. Did it get to 8? When will this Brewers team get run scoring production from Winker/his replacement if DFA, Adames and Tellez again? All three are well over 1month of batting below even the lowest of preseason projections. Yet they continue to bat in top half of the lineups. Both Peralta and Burnes have underperformed their pitching expectations while Miley and Teheran exceed. It's sitting right there for this team to have another 18-20win month with the players you expect to produce yet continue to disappoint. Frelick is playing and could be interjected in to the ML lineup here shortly. That may spark the offense him leading off with current bat Yelich 3rd.
  20. I blame Burnes 1st inning yesterday on you. Clearly Burnes is below average SP now.
  21. Approaching 150ABs of Adames batting below 550 OPS. Can they option him and call up Turang? Looks like 106days to rewind his clock another year.
  22. Pointless. No reason to ask this question until after the trade deadline-Next year. Because at that point you'll know what the returns are(if any) for all the Brewers whose control ends after 2024 season. Which stands at 7-10players. Team could blow it up this year by trading most of those players and say Urias/Williams/Rea controlled through 2025. Tank to 70-ish wins, get a top 8 draft selection and have a stocked aplenty minors system of players you're likely seeing 5 or more play in September.
  23. Taken from link above this was 2D ago https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/brewers-sal-frelick-returns-from-il/ Looks like finally able to be back in true action at AAA.
  24. Adames actually had a 1 pt. worse OPS than Turang had for month of May. By my numbers he's at 400 OPS thus far in June even worse. There's no SS you're putting in for Adames right now that you may get 700 OPS from within the 40man. As Turang weakened after his nice start, Adames followed a couple weeks later. No competition, the position is his. Maybe tanking to get traded if internally a contract extension talk soured him. Adames still has next season before FA. All it takes is good one to return his value and a team 1 off a bad cpl months in 23.
