    Right, that’s why I said predominantly. Of his 13 appearances with the Brewers, three have been high leverage (0913, 0910, 0808), two have been medium leverage (0902, 0805). The remaining eight were low leverage appearances.

    The last guy in every team’s bullpen is typically a disaster. Most teams have a couple two tree back there. That’s why Counsell has limited Chafin’s innings to only 11 since being acquired, which ranks 8th in the bullpen over that stretch. Pitching your worst reliever the fewest amount of innings and predominantly in low leverage situations seems like a sound strategy.

    Brewers relievers are 2nd in MLB for Win Probability Added on the season. Only four bullpens - BAL (17), ATL (19), HOU (21) and TOR (21) - have lost fewer games than the Brewers with 23. Counsell doesn’t always make the right call, but he does so with higher frequency than most of his fellow managers.

    If Yelich couldn’t go in the playoffs lineup would probably be Canha, Frelick, Taylor in the OF with Santana, Turang, Adames, Monasterio around the IF, Contreras catching and Donaldson at DH. If one of those three OF went down in addition to Yelich, it appears Perkins is the next man up as of now. Would pretty much need three OF to go down at this point before Wiemer’s name comes up in the starting lineup. And even then, Mitchell could pass him in the interim.

    Wiemer switching to a version of his current set up is what triggered his prospect ascent in the first place. Before that he was a guy with all the physical tools that hit too many ground balls to tap into his raw power. At this point it looks like changes will need to be made, but Joey posted an 848 OPS as recently as June. There was no need to fix it earlier because it was working up until the last couple months.

    Good news. Perkins got pulled after his first AB in Nashville last night so I figured he tweaked something, but guess they just wanted to get him on a plane ASAP.

    How about our old friend Jesse Winker, currently hitting 304/487/536 (166 wRC+) with more walks (20) than strikeouts (11) over 76 PAs in Nashville. He’s outperformed Keston Hiura at AAA, but doesn’t seem to have captured the imagination of the collective Brewers internet in quite the same way.

    Since hitting a pair of grand slams a month ago, Urias has batted 180/339/240 (70 wRC+) over 62 PA with the Red Sox. His overall Boston line is 210/340/333 (88 wRC+) in 98 PA. Truly mind boggling how his wheels fell off. Went from a sprint speed of 28.0 ft/s (75th percentile) in 2018 to 26.1 ft/s (21st percentile) this year. He’s essentially gone from being as fast as Yelich to being as slow as Santana.

    Based on how much run the Brewers have given Turang this year, I am guessing whatever internal metrics they have align more closely with DRS.

    I'm sure there will be some back end roster churn before the season is over, and for sure before the first round of the playoffs, but I'm not sure any such changes are really all that past due. The Brewers have been playing at a 26-14 clip since August 1st and currently have their biggest division lead of the season at 5.5 games.
  11. sveumrules
    Brewers have scored the 10th most runs in MLB since August 1st. Their 26-14 record is 4th best in MLB over that stretch.
  12. sveumrules
    What entails soon enough? Still expect the team to be sold or on the block by spring of 2025 or possibly even as soon as this coming February?
  13. sveumrules
    He’s injured, hasn’t played for two weeks and is headed for surgery then free agency. Clearing out his locker now instead of at the end of the season seems like a sensible decision to me.
  14. sveumrules
    Makes sense to me. Diversifying the portfolio. Attanasio’s personal wealth has minimal impact on the team’s valuation, but owning the team has a major impact on his personal wealth. Instead of passing along just a baseball team, his sons will inherit a baseball team and a soccer team, both of which will likely continue to increase in value ad infinitum until the economy or environment collapses.

    Carolina gets one run top of ten via Dylan O’Rae single.

    SMOOTH 🎸🎸

    If things are wrapped up by that last series, I think the Brewers first priority will be resting guys for the postseason. Second priority would be making sure we don't face the Cubs in the Wild Card round because it would eliminate some degree of the home field advantage. With the Cubs holding a 2.5 game lead on that second Wild Card as of now, it looks like a pretty safe bet that MIL, CHI and PHI will be 3/4/5 in some order with SFG, ARI, CIN and MIA battling it out for that final spot.

    Announcing Hank The Dog’s stud fee.
  19. sveumrules
    Brown Jr, Chourio, Wilken and Quero in the same lineup…looks good.
  20. sveumrules
    He should go see the guy Kerry Carpenter works with. Video below is pretty informative and he talks about it some in this interview too.
  21. sveumrules
    Perkins had a less severe injury and has already started his rehab, he’s probably ahead of Mitchell at the moment anyway. Sounds like Yelich will be back shortly and hopefully Canha not long after, so Wiemer (or whoever replaces him) should be back to minimal PT pretty soon.
  22. sveumrules
    Yup, on July 25th his OPS was .394. Since then he has hit 279/324/510 before today's outburst.
  23. sveumrules
    Candelario has been placed on the IL with a back issue. After going eight for his first nine with the Cubs he hit 183/278/385 (79 wRC+) over his subsequent 126 PAs.
  24. sveumrules
    It's hot, but it's also 40 plate appearances. In the 30 PAs between his position player HR on 08/22 and the calendar flipping to September he hit 250/300/250 (42 wRC+).
  25. sveumrules
    Mitchell hasn't started his rehab assignment yet, and Hogg implied he'd stick with Nashville through the end of their season, so maybe he could help out the last week of the season and the playoffs, but not anytime too soon. Is Black really hot though? He has a 111 wRC+ in Nashville over 134 PAs. On August 22nd he homered off position player Daniel Robertson, since then he has posted a 111 wRC+ in 70 PAs. Before that game, he had a 97 wRC+ in 58 PA at AAA. He's been better of late, but he hasn't really been hot since Biloxi.
