The intimidating figure of five foot ten, hundred sixty five pound First Baseman Kevin Ereu with eight singles and one home run in his first 100 PA worked his 19th walk of the year to open the Zona Crew seventh and scored on a Demetrio Nadal double to tie things up at two each in the desert. -
Five games away from THREE HUNDRED with the Shuckers. & his 122 wRC+ (15th in the Southern League min. 150 PA) has been a nice step up from the 92 wRC+ he had posted with Biloxi from 2022-24 for sure.
-
Didn’t result in any runs but Blake Perkins hit a 96 MPH single and Handelfry followed with his 10th double of the season at 113 MPH. guess he hit it too hard.
-
Not just any double play either, but a 3-6-3 double play with (checks notes) first baseman Kevin Ereu ?!? who is making his (checks notes again) second ever start at the cold corner ?!?
-
StatCast stream has gotten a little spotty in AZ (no exit velos on the Handelfry or Quintana singles) but Pedro Ibarguen just ripped a 104.4 MPH base hit. & I must have jinxed Griffin as he walks the leadoff man bottom four. All apologies young man, I’ll try to be better.
-
& Griffin Tobias goes 1-2-3 in the third picking up two more strikeouts. Busted out a couple curveballs in the 74.9 to 78.6 MPH range. Now up to 23.1 IP without walking a batter.
-
GameDay giving velo, pitch type & presumably more trustworthy locations. Griffin Tobias on for the second and goes 4U3D (1 H | 1 K). Mostly working four seam and sinker at 91-93 (93.9 max) with a 82-84 slider and one change at 85.5 MPH. Crew got on the board bottom two with a Blake Perkins walk then back to back singles from Handelfry & Jorge Quintana.
-
Robinson with an effectively wild inning, 24 pitches (11 strikes) to get the zero. He was hit with a 93 MPH batted ball from the leadoff man, then worked around a single and walk before getting the K to close out the frame. Fastball between 91.6 MPH to 94.6 MPH. slider around 82-83, curve and change up coming in around 80-82.
-
Hayden Robinson starting on the complex and it’s at Cincy so we’ve the got the full StatCast experience.
-
Tobias still cruising. Five scoreless, two singles, two walks, three strikeouts. 72 pitches (44 strikes).
-
Dorchies opens the ninth with a double and walk, prompting a mound visit. Bounced back with a pop out and fly out before giving up a two RBI triple. Now a 3-2 game, need one more out.
-
Juan Baez with his THIRD walk of the game, bases were loaded (including Yhoswar’s second double of the game), 8-2 Wisco. & a two RBI Jadher single makes it 10-2 TRats
-
Mitchell & Quero each singled then Dalbec went deep to get NASH an early 3-0 lead. Tobias with a single, walk and two K through a pair of scoreless frames.
-
Too Many Garcias.
-
There are 501 pitchers in the minors with at least 40 IP so far. Tyson Hardin (1.90) and Coleman Crow (2.03) have the two lowest FIPs in the entire sample.
-
There are 577 players in the minors with at least 200 PA so far and only nine of those players have at least a 170 wRC+. Three of them are Brewers…Luke Adams (179), Brock Wilken (173), and Marco Dinges (170). Nine more hitters have a wRC+ in the 160’s with Anthony Seigler (161) representing.

Brewers trade for RHP Quinn Priester
sveumrules replied to Ron Robinsons Beard's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
On the one hand, Priester was the higher draft pick and generally more well regarded as a prospect, so his stuff was more obviously apparent. On the other hand, “stuff” is generally correlated with getting strikeouts, and Myers has a clear advantage over Priester there. Its really just two different kinds of stuff. Priester is a little more old school working everything off the sinker down and Myers a little more from the new school of mostly working off the four seamer up. -
Jacob Misiorowski gets the call to the show!!!
sveumrules replied to Jastro's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Pretty cool article at FanGraphs today breaking down Misio's first start and comparing his slider/changeup to some fastballs of days gone by with similar velocity and movement profiles. -
Brewers trade for RHP Quinn Priester
sveumrules replied to Ron Robinsons Beard's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Here's a breakdown of their respective "peak" profiles. Priester ranks are among 80 pitchers min. 40 IP since May 3rd, Tobias ranks are among 75 pitchers min. 100 IP from June onward last year... Priester (44.1 IP | 41st) 55 ERA- (14th) | 85 FIP- (28th) 78 K+ (63rd) | 67 BB+ (26th) | 58 HR+ (16th) 137 GB+ (4th) | 68 FB+ (74th) | 81 LD+ (`14th) Myers (111.1 IP | 39th) 59 ERA- (4th) | 85 FIP- (20th) 99 K+ (38th) | 70 BB+ (18th) | 79 HR+ (19th) 90 GB+ (58th) | 106 FB+ (25th) | 109 LD+ (54th) Pretty crazy how close the ERA-/FIP- are even though they go about it in different ways. Priester with the ground ball heavy / no K profile, and Myers with the more fly ball oriented / average K profile. -
Harper signed with Philly prior to 2019. Even if the Brewers were in a position to beat their 13/330 offer, they already had Yelich, Cain and Braun under contract for about $45M total each of the next two seasons with no DH available. I don't normally like to use words like "laughable" or "dumb" because they come across as overly dismissive, but the idea that the Brewers might have ever had a realistic chance at signing Bryce Harper seems a little far fetched to me.
-
$330M is not cheaper than $188M dollars.
-
Yelich's extension kicked in 2022, from 2022-24 he put up a 123 wRC+ and 8.9 WAR for $78M. During the 2023 season teams paid around $10M per win at the top of the market. By that math, Yelich's production exceeded his salary for the first three years of the extension. These last four years could get ugly post-back surgery, but the degree to which Yelich's contract has been some kind of disaster or boat anchor to this point has been pretty overstated.
-
MLB owners / front offices decided each player's value, not me. But yes, Soto did get $450M more and five extra years over Devers for being better, younger, and a free agent.
-
Please refrain from using the word "ass" in future posts, it is against the Community Guidelines. Yelich has three years and $78M after this year. Devers has eight years and $254M after this year. Those are two different levels of expenditure even if the AAVs are close. Juan Soto has a 157 wRC+ and 38.1 WAR since 2018, Devers has a 127 wRC+ and 26.8 WAR over the same timeframe. These are two different calibres of players, plus Soto is two years younger and signed as a free agent versus signing a pre-free agency extension like Devers.
-
Buster being aggressive. They've gotten Adames and Chapman (& Jung Hoo Lee) to take their money, but haven't been able to land that true difference making bat in FA. As long as Devers keeps hitting around a 135 OPS+ the money won't be an issue for them.
