    Not to mention Carter struck out 32.0% of the time in 2016, which shook out to a 156 K%+. Alonso strikes out 21.2% of the time in 2023, which shakes out to a 94 K%+.

    Cubs pretty much need to go 4-2 (to get the tiebreaker) or 5-1 (to close the gap outright) in their remaining games against the Brewers. Anything short of that would make things a lot tougher for them. Tankathon has their remaining strength of schedule pretty close with the Brewers at .486 vs .498 for the Cubs.

    If the Yankees lose tonight it will be their first ten game losing streak since 1913. If they finish the year under .500, it will be their first time doing so since 1992. Been a bad year for big spenders, by Cot’s OD payroll rank…#1 NYM (59-68) #2 NYY (60-65) #3 SDP (60-67) #6 LAA (61-65)

    Wainwright has 3 W in 17 GS this year, with the last one coming two months ago, and he needs to pick up two more dubs to get to 200 with what…six starts left? That first start outta the break has gotta sting, left after five up 5-2 but the bullpen blew the lead in the 6th/7th. He’s been credited with the loss in each of his five starts since. They might be better served moving him to the pen and bringing him into tie games to try and vulture those last two?

    Except they haven’t really sat on him for months. Yes, he started out the year sizzling (155 wRC+ over his first 134 PAs), but then he got hurt. When he returned from injury a month later, his pop was gone, 112 wRC+ over 119 PA from 6/16 to 7/25 with only 2 HR. Since then he has hit for a 166 wRC+ over 88 PA with 8 HR, so the pop looks to have returned over the last few weeks. I’d say there was reasonable justification for him not to make the OD roster, not to be called up after only six weeks, not to be called up while injured, and not to be called up after returning from injury with no pop and the trade deadline looming. If they don’t call him up Sept. 1, the writing will really be on the wall though.

    I love Alonso, he’d be the best hitter we’ve had since Adames put up a 136 wRC+ in 2021. But he’s also looking at around $20M for his last year of Arby’s, so even if you wanted to project him at 5 WAR (which he hasn’t cracked since his rookie year), that’s still only like $25M in surplus value on the high end. He’d be the perfect “all in” bat for 2024 if they decided to hold all of Burnes, Woodruff and Adames. Could conceivably QO all four and set up ridiculous for the 2025 draft.

    If the Brewers end the season 18-18, the Cardinals would have to go 33-2 to finish higher in the standings.

    Carolina has gotten a couple more with a Sibrian walk, wild pitch, another Areinamo double, Barrios single, DO’R walk leading to a pitching change. Now down 8-5 heading to top of nine.
  9. sveumrules
    TRats have taken a 4-2 lead in the bottom of six with Boeve walking, advancing to third on an errant pickoff, Gray Jr walking, stealing second, and then Wood doubling them both home.
  10. sveumrules
    Mudcats have scratched out a third run with Castillo singling home Adams, who had doubled. They’ve got six outs left to get five runs with Sibrian, Avina, Areinamo due up bottom eight.
  11. sveumrules
    Biloxi finally on the board via Chourio single, to second on an error, to third on a Collins groundout, to home on a Quero sac fly. Trailing 7-1 top of seven.
  12. sveumrules
    Sounds went off for four more top of five via Black walk, Hiura single, Toro bomb, Miller bomb. And now Keston has left the yard for the 22nd time this year. 9-3 Nashville with Toro on 2nd (double), Dorrian on 1st (walk) and two out top of six. Miller at the plate.
  13. sveumrules
    Jadher single, another DO’R double and a Luke Adams groundout get Carolina their second run bottom five. Trailing 8-2 heading to top of seven.
  14. sveumrules
    Dorrian has gone deep for the 21st time to get the Sounds a fourth run top of four.
  15. sveumrules
    A couple doubles from Jadher and DO’R have Carolina on the board, but still trailing 8-1 after three.
  16. sveumrules
    Hendry single brings home EBJ (walk, two steals) and Wilken (walk, steal) to get Wisco a couple runs bottom of one.
  17. sveumrules
    Toro single, followed by Dorrian and Miller doubles, then a pair of fly ball outs from Jahmai and Navarreto netted Nashville three runs in the top of the second.
  18. sveumrules
    Milwaukee "icon" who kinda resembles Wolverine that is frequently seen walking shirtless (sometimes with his little dog) around Bay View, Walker's Point area.
  19. sveumrules
    Are they going to make him put a shirt on? Will Freeway be catching the pitch?

    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.
  22. sveumrules
    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.
  23. sveumrules
    Welcome to the board!
  24. sveumrules
    Maybe he hasn't been extended because Mark A thinks his handling of Hiura has been inexcusable.
  25. sveumrules
    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.
