  1. BRef has Acuna +6 on base running, then -1 for double plays, which seems to line up with the FanGraphs number. Believe FG accounts for double plays under batting runs.
  2. Why didn't they win in spite of cheapskate Selig for the last 15 years he owned the team then? 1989-2004: 1155-1369 (.458 W%, 2nd worst among non-expansion teams) 2008-2023: 1292-1192 (.520 W%, 7th of 30 MLB teams) Pretty remarkable to win in spite of ownership across multiple front offices, managers, coaches and players over the course of 15 years. How much do you think Craig is going to make Mark A increase payroll by annually in order to stay on board as skipper? And why did Mark A choose to run a franchise record payroll this year (and last year) if all he cares about is turning a profit?
  3. They've won the 6th most games in MLB since 2018, and the 5th most games in MLB this year. They are doing alright for a team whose owner apparently doesn't care about anything besides turning a profit.
  4. Or Escobar, who was traded for Greinke. Or Arcia, who has the 4th most SS innings in franchise history. But again, the past is irrelevant to the future since the whole program was revamped over the last few years and we’ve already started seeing the results at the MLB level.
  5. Just won their 8th straight. Record is finally catching up to their run differential. FanGraphs had a nice deep dive on their chances.
  6. No doubt there are factors to consider beyond raw win percentage. The league has expanded, scheduling formats are different, the talent pool has grown exponentially on an international scale, I don’t know what payrolls were like 1978-83 but I’m guessing they were much more tightly grouped and the Brewers weren’t at a hundred plus million deficit behind many of their competitors.
  7. Hopefully we can finish this year out in the platinum tier.
  8. Ethan Small stays in for the 9th and picks up the save going K, single, pop out, ground out to secure the 8-5 Nashville victory.
  9. After tonight Brewers are 483-380 since 2018, a .560 W%. 1978-83 they were 518-400, a .564 W%. 1984-86 they were 215-268, a .445 W%. That’s a pretty serious hangover. 1987-92 they bounced back, 508-464, but that .523 W% is a healthy clip behind the current run or 1978-83.
  10. Jahmai doubles (98.9 MPH exit velo x 26 degLA = 385 feet) to bring Cam around from first.
  11. Alex Claudio gives up one in the eighth going K, single, double, ground out, single. Ethan Small then came on and stranded runners on the corners inducing a first pitch ground out. 7-5 Sounds bottom of eighth and Devanney leads off with a walk to turn the lineup over to Jahmai (and Jackson) at the top.
  12. Lauer comes back out for the 7th and gets four outs via K, reach on Toro error, ground out and K to retire the side. Presumably ends his night at 7 IP | 4 ER | 6 H | 2 BB | 1 HBP | 10 K with 99 pitches (67 strikes).
  13. Started off 143/333/250 (62 wRC+) over his first 8 G | 36 PA in Nashville. In the 28 G | 124 PA since he has hit 330/435/553 (150 wRC+).
  14. Lauer struck out the first batter of the sixth on three pitches. Followed it up with a 104 MPH single, walk, HBP, mound visit. Struck out the next guy, but just surrendered a single to (who else) Austin Allen that plated two.
  15. Darin Ruf singles Black home on a ground ball (97.3 MPH at zero degLA) to the left side. Now 7-1 Sounds heading to top of the sixth.
  16. Tyler Black leads off the Nashville half pulling a triple to RF. 101.6 MPH exit velo x 21 degLA = 325 feet.
  17. After sitting in the dugout for the long Sounds barrage, Lauer surrenders a lead off HR to Austin Allen. 91.3 MPH exit velo x 30 degLA = 337 foot wall scraper? Bounces back with a K, ground out, line out. Pitch count at 51 (39 strikes) through five IP.
  18. And a Wild Pitch nets Nashville a sixth and final run bottom of four.
  19. Chourio hits a first pitch cutter at 103.9 MPH exit velo x 30 degLA = 404 feet for a sac fly. 5-0 Sounds.
  20. Take that back, bases loaded one out for Jackson as Jahmai Jones called strike three is overturned to ball four.
  21. Nashville has gone off for four runs here bottom of four via Miller double, Wiemer single, Black single, Toro single, Ruf sac fly, Henry single, Devanney walk. Still runners on first and second and two out with Jackson stepping to the dish.
  22. Kinda surprised BRef has the signing bonuses from back then but looks like BJ got 150K, Will got 160K, Barry got 125K and Bobby Witt Sr. got the biggest check at 179K.
  23. Nothing nothing headed to bottom of three. Lauer gave up a single and fanned two more over the 2nd/3rd innings. A Jahmai Jones single is it for the Sounds offense so far.
  24. Two of my favorites too. Hamilton was just so smooth. Surhoff going 1-1 over Barry Bonds and (my favorite player as a kid) Will Clark is pretty nuts looking back, but have to imagine both those guys essentially told Milwaukee not to draft them.
  25. Almost, 13 back on July 8, 1990. Gantner went 3-4 with 5 RBI leading off. Darryl Hamilton (RIP) went 3-5 with 6 RBI. Deer 0-5 with 2 K.
