    For the rest of this year they have Toro, Black, Devanney and Dorrian as 3B options in AAA. Of course Urias has an established MLB track record and none of those guys aside from Toro do, but with Luis’s performance thus far in 2023 there’s no guarantee he’d return to those 21-22 numbers, just as Willy or Rowdy or Tyrone haven’t been able to replicate their 21-22 success in 23. Even with no moves, they will likely open next year with organizational 3B depth something like… MLB: Monasterio AAA: Black AA: Wilken A+: Adams A: Bitonti/Baez The no third baseman storyline looks to be wrapping up shortly too.

    Because at the time of the trade he had hit for a 59 wRC+ in MLB and an 84 wRC+ in AAA. It appears as though the Brewers didn’t believe he’d be worth his Arby’s number this offseason, and they had two 3B who were outperforming him already on the roster, so they traded him for a talented arm. It’s cool that Luis hit two grand slams, but he had a 45 wRC+ with Boston before that, and even then he had three days off before the first grand slam, then a day off after, then another day off after the second one so he isn’t even playing every day.

    Yeah, a 56 wRC+ in the first half (with a 7.3 BB% | 23.7 K%) versus a 96 wRC+ in the second half (with a 13.0 BB% | 16.3 K%). Anyone still complaining about Turang's bat hasn't been paying attention recently.

    Welcome to the board!

    Maybe he hasn't been extended because Mark A thinks his handling of Hiura has been inexcusable.

    No Misio in Biloxi today but Nick Bennett, Ryan Middendorf, Max Lazar, Noah Vennaro, and Russell Smith had a shutout through eight. Cam Robinson’s ninth went fly out, double, walk, Zavier Warrrn error, before inducing a double play to seal the 2-1 victory for the Shuckers. They would have had a no hitter, but Luke Waddell (any relation to Rube?) went 4-4.

    Biloxi waited out a second run top of eight with an Isaac Collins single/steal followed up by walks of Wes Clarke, Ernesto Martinez and Lamar Sparks.
  8. sveumrules
    Biloxi leading 1-0 heading to bottom five with run coming via Jason Lopez single, Carlos Rodriguez double, Ethan Murray groundout.
  9. sveumrules
    Nick Merkel has shutdown the last 2.2 IP for Wisco with 1 H | 3 K. Tanner Shears on bottom of eight.
  10. sveumrules
    Wisco trailing 4-1 bottom of four with their lone run coming when Matthew Wood singled home Hendry Mendez, who had doubled.
  11. sveumrules
    Carolina up 5-3 through seven with Chase Costello trying to work out of a runners on the corners, two out jam of Jeison Pena’s making. Dylan O’Rae and Tayden Hall have a pair of singles each while Gregory Barrios has singled and doubled with Luis Castillo adding a solo shot. Will Childers had a nice start with 1 R over 6 IP and 3 H | 1 BB | 3 K.

    Milwaukee has always been among the smallest markets in all of professional sports, do you have any data that makes a case otherwise? Or something that illustrates how the Brewers have a demographic advantage relative to other MLB teams?
  13. sveumrules
    Are they? This link would indicate Mark A is among the half dozen poorest owners in MLB. This one says they receive the least annually on their local TV contract. Which ten MLB markets are smaller than Milwaukee to make them mid-market?
  14. sveumrules
    Sure, so could every other owner in MLB. Some owners, with larger team specific income streams and greater personal wealth, could easily spend another $100M+ a year on payroll.
  15. sveumrules
    They’ve played one game over .500 since the 14-5 start, but it’s been split into two pretty distinctive sections… 4/21 to 6/14: 20-29 (79 wRC+) (bookended by six game losing streaks) 6/16 to 8/19: 33-23 (91 wRC+) (5th most wins in MLB over last two plus months) Maybe not scorching hot, but they’ve been much more capable of late than IGTs might imply.
  16. sveumrules
    Lara double, Wilken single gets Wisco another run top of eight. Now top of nine has gone Mendez double, Miller double, Acosta walk, Vargas single to close the gap to 5-4. Doston up with men on the corners and no outs and he grounds into a DP to tie it up.
  17. sveumrules
    Jackson Chourio with the lone Biloxi hit so far as the Shuckers are down 2-0 bottom of four.
  18. sveumrules
    Carolina trailing 2-0 after five with singles from Tayden Hall and Jose Sibrian the only hits. Dylan O’Rae has a walk, reach on error and stolen bag so far.
  19. sveumrules
    TRats even things up at one in the top of the second as Mike Boeve comes around to score on a pair of groundouts after hitting a double to lead off the inning.

    DSL1 falls 4-1. Yophery and Pedro Tovar with the lone hits while Gery Holguin walked twice and Brian Sanchez walked and got plunked. Lots of scoreless pitching lines including Esmir Suarez (3 IP | 1 H | 2 BB | 2 K), Yonawil Florimon (1.2 IP | 1 BB | 2 K), Argenis Aparicio (1 IP | 1 K) and Roman Perez (1 IP | 2 K).
  21. sveumrules
    DSL2 falls 5-3. Demetrio Nadal (2-3, BBx2, SB but also CSx2), Roderick Flores (2-4, 2B, SB), Luis Lameda (0-3, BBx2), and Danny Puerta (0-2, BBx2) were all on multiple times while Christopher Vasquez had a big two RBI single. Justin Caceres gets pitcher of the game with two scoreless innings and 1 H | 2 BB | 2 K with Pedro Quintana working around 1 H | 2 BB to throw a scoreless frame of his own.
  22. sveumrules
    Anderson has 17 PA in August. They dealt Urias for a talented pitcher to stick with Monasterio and Turang as the starters.
  23. sveumrules
    Counsell’s dad worked for noted big spender Bud Selig. Craig won the World Series as a player with the Marlins and DBacks. If we’re editorializing here, I think he understands the financial realities of small market baseball better than most, and has probably accepted those realities as part of the challenge.

    Believe they moved the Sunday games for SDP, LAD and LAA up to Saturday doubleheaders in anticipation of the looming hurricane.
  25. sveumrules
    Probably comes down to how good the glove is at SS. Even with Zamora’s throwing issues, he’s still got 588 innings at SS for Biloxi this year compared to 366 innings at SS for Murray. Otherwise their offensive lines are pretty close… Zamora 271/373/391 (110 wRC+) 12.7 BB% | 20.8 K% 15/3 SB/CS Murray 266/383/380 (111 wRC+) 14.8 BB% | 20.3 K% 10/4 SB/CS Ethan is a year and a half younger than Freddy too.
