    A trio of singles from Pedro Tovar, Angel Gonzalez and Moises Polanco plated a fourth run for DSL Dos in the top of the 4th. Polanco was caught stealing to end the inning, the fourth CS for the team on the day with Kevin Ereu caught twice already (but hey, at least he got on twice I guess?).

    DSL Dos puts up tres in the top of the segundo. Luis Corobo double, Frederi Montero plunked, Pedro Tovar single, Roderick Flores single, Angel Gonzalez RBI groundout (passed ball), and a Moises Polanco walk/stolen base combo before Jorge Quintana lined into a double play. Hoff has put up two more scoreless frames with another walk and strikeout.

    DSL Uno has the more seasoned Nicaraguan RHP Joshua Quezada taking the ball, who at age 20 is repeating the level after posting a very Tesla-esque 3.69 ERA over 46.1 IP with 48 K | 18 BB on the island last summer. First frame of 2024 goes ground out, HBP, pop out, ground out. Luis Peña walked and predictably stole second (his 10th bag of the year already) in the bottom half of the first.

    Looks like German RHP Paul Hoff - listed at 6’5” and 180 lbs while still being 17 for three more months - gets the start for DSL Dos today. Goes walk, 4-6-3 double play, strikeout in his first professional frame.

    Fillipo Di Turi staying hot in Carolina going 2 for 3 with a double and walk (and caught stealing). Hey we can’t all be perfect. Luke Adams reaches all five times with a single and four walks. Ok, maybe we can be sometimes.

    Walk, stolen base, single and Bayden Root finds himself in a runners on the corners no out jam trying to protect the 2-1 Wisco lead.
  7. sveumrules
    Patrick strikes out a pair in a perfect fifth to bring his line to 5 IP | 2 ER | 4 H | 0 BB | 5 K with the pitch count sitting pretty at 62.
  8. sveumrules
    Matthew Wood double + Tayden Hall single = Wisco regains the lead 2-1 bottom of eight.
  9. sveumrules
    An Eric Haase single moved Miller to third and a Yonny Hernandez sac fly brought him home, now 9-2 through four complete.
  10. sveumrules
    Yerlin Rodriguez gave up a walk and double to put runners on 2nd and 3rd with one out bottom of eight. Almost got out of it with a 5-2 fielders choice nabbing the tying run at the plate for out number two. Unfortunately a wild pitch evened the score at a one apiece before Yerlin recorded the third and final out via K.
  11. sveumrules
    Nashville added two more bottom of three as Chris Roller walked followed by Chavez Young and Vinny Capra singles. All three also stole a base in the inning. Score now 8-2 bottom of four and Owen Miller has just hit a lead off double.
  12. sveumrules
    Sounds offense making some more noise again bottom of three with an Eric Haase bomb (his 7th of the year) pushing the score to 6-2.
  13. sveumrules
    Yerlin Rodriguez strikes out a pair in a perfect frame top of the 7th.
  14. sveumrules
    Sounds up 5-1 top of three. Two more runs came across bottom of one with two out singles from Eric Haase and Yonny Hernandez followed by a Chavez Young triple. Fifth run came around on a Chris Roller double (wild pitch) and Francisco Mejia sac fly. Now 5-2 as Patrick has surrendered a single and RBI double with one out.
  15. sveumrules
    Chad Patrick surrendered a lead off bomb, but Francisco Mejia and Owen Miller picked him up with back to back jacks in the bottom half.
  16. sveumrules
    Fitzpatrick works out of a bases loaded one out jam to put up his fourth scoreless frame (59 pitches) with 3 H | 2 BB | 1 HBP | 2 K.
  17. sveumrules
    Yeah, there’s a bunch of guys on the ten teams (fourteen if you count the other NL Central teams) that are all within a few games of .500 that could be nice pick ups. Hopefully the mess sorts itself out some in the seven weeks leading up to the deadline.
  18. sveumrules
    Great AB by Chourio (and the ump).
  19. sveumrules
    Yeah, Kerry Carpenter (129 wRC+ | 3.7 WAR over 735 PAs since 2022) and Riley Greene (111 wRC+ | 4.6 WAR over 1,102 PAs since 2022) have been their only real hits on the position player side and Carpenter is out with a lumbar spine stress fracture. #1 overall pick Spencer Torkleson was supposed to be a guy but has a 91 wRC+ and -0.3 WAR for his career and was just sent down to AAA, resulting in Keston Hiura’s release.

    I’d prefer if Wilson was a long man, that’s his ideal role, but circumstance has dictated otherwise. Hard for me to complain too much about him putting up a 3.09 ERA over 43.2 IP in the nine games he was the “starter” prior to today. He’s been put in a tough position and done his job and then some even if the ERA has been lucky or smoke & mirrors or Brewers FIP beating wizardry or whatever one wants to chalk it up to. He’d only have one run today if Turang took the out at first.

    Found this blurb on the FanGraphs 2019 prospect list where Tarik was in the Others Prospects Of Note section… Skubal was hurt for his junior year at Seattle University and looked good in bullpens before the draft but nobody would meet his ask. He went back to school and was very wild, then dominated in pro ball after signing by throwing about 80% fastballs. He’s a ground-up rebuild who had third round stuff at his best in college. One year later on their 2020 Tigers list he has moved up to #4 with this to say… Skubal was rehabbing from Tommy John during his junior year at Seattle University and only managed to throw a few bullpen sessions in front of scouts before the 2017 draft. Scouts liked what they saw, but not enough to meet a price tag that was up around $1 million according to sources. Skubal went back to school and was horrendous early in the year before he slowly began to throw more and more strikes. Now 29 teams and their evaluators are cursing themselves for either failing to notice that upward trend throughout the 2018 spring, or for noticing but lacking conviction in the draft room. There are some folks in baseball who have Skubal right up in the same tier with Mize and Manning. He has a dominant fastball, equal parts velocity, ride, and tough-to-square angle.

    Hudson (+2.18 WPA), Koenig (+1.07 WPA) and even Paredes (+0.78 WPA) have been impactful out of nowhere acquisitions for sure. Those three guys have more WPA than 27 teams entire bullpens have produced. ZiPS projected Turang (1.4 WAR) and Ortiz (1.6 WAR) for three combined wins, they’re currently at 4.3 WAR and counting. Perkins has taken his opportunity and ran with it, already topping his preseason ZiPS by half a win. His acquisition thread is looking more and more like a BF all timer. Wilson (83 ERA- | 127 FIP-) and Rea (88 ERA- | 115 FIP-) keeping alive the rich Brewers tradition of marginal pitchers majorly beating their FIPs has been fun to watch. Brewers are 13-8 in games “started” by the pair. So that’s like four wins from nondescript bullpen pickups, an extra couple wins from young position player breakouts, and if you assume the Brewers shouldn’t be much more than a .500 team with Wilson/Rea starting that’s another two tree wins there. Obviously there’s a lot of quick and dirty math going on, but that accounts for something like eight or nine of the team’s current twelve games over .500.

    Scanning through the pitch usage leaderboards it looks like out of 355 pitchers with at least 20 IP this year there are 68 pitchers who throw a sinker and cutter at least 10% each. If you raise the usage threshold to 15% each it drops down to 37 pitchers. Wilson (34.1% cut | 30.8% sink), Rea (24.5% cut | 28.5% sink) and Koenig (23.3% cut | 58.8% sink) all clear either threshold and Gasser (9.3% cut | 27.1% sink) just misses the lower one.

    Reds in 2nd, Pirates in 3rd, Cardinals and Cubs tied for last place. Glorious sight even if only for a day.

    Here I was feeling fancy because I just put a new tip eraser on my #2 pencil.
