  1. In addition to the aforementioned Jesus Made bomb, 18yo RHP Wenderlyn King has worked around 5 H | 1 BB | 3 HBP to allow only 1 ER through 4 IP (4 K) for Crew Uno so far today.
  2. Crew Dos falls 2-0 in the rare low scoring DSL duel. Pedro Tovar (3-3, 2B, SB), Kevin Ereu (2-3, 2B) and Luis Corobo (1-3, 2B) made most of the noise on offense while Frandy Lafond went 0 for 2 with a walk and stolen bag in his debut. 18yo RHPs Johan Zapata (3 IP | 1 H | 2 K) and Omar Camilo (1 IP | 1 H | 3 K) finished with four frames of scoreless, walkless work.
  3. Alec has -11 OAA in only 685 career innings as an OF. That is pretty brutal. Right up there with teammate Jordan Walker at -14 OAA in 1,055 innings as an OF. For comparison someone like Hunter Renfroe has also put up -11 OAA over that same time frame, but it took him 2,533 innings to do it. Andrew Benintendi put up -14 OAA too, but in 2,740 innings. Kind of emblematic of the Cardinals problems as a whole the last couple years... 2018-22 STL 392 W (7th) | -0.29 ERA/FIP (2nd) | +80 OAA (3rd) 2023-24 STL 107 W (24th) | +0.30 ERA/FIP (28th) | -8 OAA (20th) Defense has collapsed and pitchers have gone from one of the best in MLB at beating their peripherals to one of the worst. Meanwhile the Brewers... 2018-22 MIL 395 W (6th) | -0.12 ERA/FIP (9th) | +25 OAA (10th) 2023-24 MIL 135 W (5th) | -0.47 ERA/FIP (1st) | +57 OAA (1st) Pretty close with STL from 2018-22, but Arnold's Brewers have pulled away the last year plus by leaning even harder into defense than they did under Stearns. The bullpen's MLB best +19.14 WPA over the last two years (2nd place is all the way down at +11.81, STL in 19th at +1.61) has obviously been huge too.
  4. Nice. Believe a win tonight would run the division lead to 7.5 games then which would be the Brewers largest margin of the season so far.
  5. Bad News: The Brewers 92 wRC+ versus LHP this year ranks 23rd in MLB. Better News: They still have gone 9-8 in games against LH starters so far. As far as Hoskins specifically, it is only 35 PA vs LHP so far this year so I would expect him to put up better results against southpaws as the season goes on and he hopefully gets his legs back under him.
  6. Most teams have multiple awful relievers occupying the last couple few spots in the bullpen. That the Brewers only have one (and that is only due to numerous injuries) is a testament to their ridiculous pitching depth. For all the runs they’ve given up, guys like Vieira, Mitch White and now Elieser have eaten up 36.2 IP (over 12% of the relief workload) while combining for -0.37 WPA and one credited loss.
  7. Good thing Chourio had off yesterday so he’d have enough juice to get around the bases today.
  8. If the Brewers thought Black was a possibility for 2B (or even 3B) at the MLB level they’d be giving him occasional reps there in Nashville to keep him sharp. That he hasn’t played 2B for two years, or 3B this year aside from one game where he made two errors, tells me the Brewers don’t consider him a realistic option at those spots currently.
  9. DSL Dos wins 11-4. Jorge Quinata (1-4, 2B, BBx2), Kevin Ereu (1-5, BB), Jose Anderson (1-3, BBx3, SB), Luis Corobo (2-4, 2B, BB, SB), Frederi Montero (2-4, 2B, BB), Roderick Flores (1-2, BB, HBPx2), Angel Gonzalez (1-4, BB) and Pedro Tovar (2-4, 2B, BB) all reached multiple times. Couple of zeros on the mound belonging to Lenin Mendez (1 IP | 2 BB | 1 K) and Oliver Camilo (1 IP | 2 HBP | 1 K).
  10. DSL Uno loses 7-5. Jesus Made (2-5, HR, SB) had the big day at the plate while Juan Martinez (2-5, 3B) and Engel Paulino (2-5, 3B) each collected multiple hits including a three bagger. Juan Ortuno also made some noise walking twice and stealing three bags while getting caught stealing once. Only zero for the pitchers was Wande Torres who started the game off with a perfect 1-2-3 inning (one strikeout).
  11. As of now the roster looks like... Lillard | Jackson Jr. AJ Green | Patty C Khris | Marjon Giannis | Livingston Brook | Bobby Think they'll try to bring Pat Bev back and obviously Thanasis is on the lifetime 15th Man contract. If they use both their draft picks (I'd target a point guard and athletic big) that would bring it up to 14 players. Not sure what exactly all the new CBA provisions are, but pretty sure the Bucks will be limited to filling out the roster with Vet Minimums beyond that. As far as trades, I don't think any of the young guys have any real value beyond a throw in, Patty C doesn't have any real value beyond matching salaries, but both Brook and Bobby could be appealing to the right teams.
  12. I would guess close to zero. All indications I've seen are that Dame is excited to get to work with a full offseason of prep. Khris is still a playoff killer and Giannis's #1 so I don't think he is going anywhere. Just need to get all three to the playoffs healthy. Last year in 758 minutes on the floor together they were +17.0 points per 100 possessions.
  13. Awesome news for Dylan O'Rae. Given his slap and dash style, I feel like he is a pretty good test case for how much defense improves at each successive level... ACL (211 PAs) .426 BABIP | 151 wRC+ CAR (107 PAs) .387 BABIP | 141 wRC+ WIS (284 PAs) .341 BABIP | 120 wRC+
  14. Only three games (14 PAs) but Mitchell is hitting 154/214/231 in Nashville so far. Among 85 OF with at least 900 innings in the field since last year Perkins comes in 5th in DRS (+17) and 6th in OAA (+14). Put together being one of the best defensive outfielders in MLB with a 93 wRC+ and +2.6 runs on the bases and Blake’s 2.5 WAR ranks 51st among 125 outfielders with at least 400 PA since last year.
  15. Hoskins was hitting 233/340/474 (131 wRC+) before the hamstring. 31% better than average is pretty good.
  16. Tyler Black hasn’t played 2B since 2022.
  17. I had this year marked down as rehab/recovery for Ashby, and figured anything he might contribute to the MLB club would be an unexpected surprise. That said, it’d be nice to have more than a handful of decent outings to file in the Encouraging column compared to considerably more entries under the Discouraging header to this point. I guess that he’s stayed healthy enough to take the mound (no matter the results) is a pretty big positive in and of itself. I’ll definitely give Aaron more time to start stringing together effective outings, but to me he’s always looked more like a stiff thrower (with undeniably nasty stuff pre surgery) than he has ever looked like an athlete with feel to pitch, which I think diminishes his chances somewhat or maybe lengthens the timeline coming back from something like this.
  18. His name is Willy.
  19. Guardians put up four runs in the third to make the score 5-4. Brewers Uno answering back with an Idalberto Santiesteban single, Jesus Made double. Luis Pena single, Juan Martinez sac fly, (Pena steals #20), Freider Rojas walk and Juan Ortuno triple to get all four runs back.
  20. Crew Uno put up a five spot of their own with a Freider Rojas single, Juan Ortuno walk, Joandrew Peña single, Danny Puerta walk, Idalberto Santiesteban walk, Jesus Made reach on error (caught stealing), passed ball, Luis Pena single, Eric Martinez single (double steal). Joshua Quezada has worked around three hits and a walk to record two scoreless frames thus far.
  21. Jean Rodriguez came out for a second inning of work for Crew Dos and it didn’t go much better. Lead off double, pop out, another error by Frederi Montero, walk, ground out, wild pitch and a double ran the score to 8-0 Cubs before Jesus Broca came on and struck out the final batter of the inning.
  22. Oh boy, we’ve got a DSL special already in the first inning for Crew Dos. A reach on error, HBP, caught stealing and ground out set things up nicely for the Brewers to get out of the inning with two down and a runner on third. But a walk. HBP, single, walk, HBP, and a chicken (back to back BALKs) plated five Ositos.
  23. Black has 44 games at 1B and one at 3B (where he made two errors) in Nashville this year. If the Brewers believed he was a legit MLB third baseman he would have more games at 3B this year. What year did he win “defensive rookie of the year on defense in AAA at 3rd base”?
  24. Bayden Root goes strikeout, ground out, single to third on two base error, fly out to pick up the save in an 8-5 Wisco win.
  25. Aaron Rund settled in nicely after his two run errror putting up 3.1 scoreless with 1 H | 2 BB | 3 K. Still 8-5 Wisco with Eduarqui leading off top of nine.
