With everyone theoretically healthy 12 of the position players will likely be Contreras, Jansen, Vaughn, Hoskins, Turang, Ortiz, Durbin, Yelich, Collins, Chourio, Frelick and Perkins. Would imagine Monasterio has the edge over Seigler for the 13th spot in that scenario since he is SS capable. Then in September it would come down to Seigler vs Lockridge for the 14th spot (again, assuming health from all parties). -
Collins 2024 Nash (500 PA) 273/386/475 (128 wRC+) 14.2 BB% | 19.2 K% Collins (first 46 MLB PA) 163/217/233 (27 wRC+) 6.5 BB% | 34.8 K% Collins (last 267 MLB PA) 291/400/430 (140 wRC+) 13.9 BB% | 22.5 K% Durbin 24-25 AAA (433 PA) 286/386/473 (127 wRC+) 11.5 BB% | 9.7 K% Durbin (first 117 MLB PA) 186/270/255 (53 wRC+) 4.3 BB% | 8.5 K% Durbin (last 204 MLB PA) 313/392/443 (139 wRC+) 8.3 BB% | 9.8 K% Seigler 2025 Nash (267 PA) 277/416/465 (141 wRC+) 18.4 BB% | 19.1 K% Seigler (first MLB 38 PA) 176/230/176 (20 wRC+) 5.3 BB% | 13.2 K% Seigler was better in AAA than both of Collins and Durbin, albeit in a smaller sample. Both Collins and Durbin have kicked out a couple hundred PA of very capable MLB production after getting off to ugly starts. I'm willing to afford Seigler that same luxury to see if we can unearth another one. Dicing up already small samples into even smaller ones doesn't necessarily get us anywhere, but something else interesting to note is that Seigler is 0 for 10 as a pinch hitter/DH with a 0.0 BB% | 30.0 K%. When he is playing 3B he has hit 250/321/250 (68 wRC+) with a 7.1 BB% | 7.1 K% over 28 PA. Still no great shakes, but far more encouraging than his overall season line (and better than Collins and Durbin to start their MLB careers).

Believe he’ll hit Arby before 2028 then free agency before 2031.

There’s been a little bit of a World Series curse of late for a few orgs… Giants (won WS 2010/12/14) have gone 817 W - 813 L since 2015 with just two winning / playoff seasons. currently on the outside looking in of the NL Wild Card race. Royals (won WS 2015) have won 641 games since, second fewest above only CHW (632) and a just behind COL (642), MIA (644), PIT (646). Made the playoffs last year mostly by going 12 W - 1 L vs White Sox. Are 56 W - 56 L this year. Cubs (won WS 2016) made postseason again in 2017 and 2018 (& 2020) but went 429 W - 441 L from 2019-24 without a full season playoff trip, should get in this year. Red Sox (won WS 2013/18) went 437 W - 434 L from 2019-24 with only one playoff trip. Currently #1 ALWC. Nationals (won WS 2019) 425 wins in the 2020s is bottom half dozen along with MIA (425), CHW (425), KCR (423), PIT (411), and COL (389). Braves (won WS 2021) lost in DS twice and WC once with a 2 W - 8 L postseason record from 2022-24. Fourth in NLE this year. Rangers (won WS 2023) hungover to the tune of 78 W - 84 L last year. Currently #7 in the AL seeding. Astros (two* WS wins in nine bites since 2015) & Dodgers (two* WS wins in twelve bites since 2013) are definitely the outliers when it comes to winning the WS and staying competitive year in year out over long stretches.

2025 Brewers vs. Top Starting Pitchers
sveumrules replied to gregmag's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Good stuff here. Obviously some small samples going on as you noted, but that’s kind of the nature of the beast when looking at such narrow parameters. Either way, definitely encouraging to see the arrow has been pointing in the right direction. -
Giants were 41 W - 31 L when they traded for Devers. FanGraphs gave them 65.0% playoff odds at that point. Giants have gone 15 W - 25 L since trading for Devers. FanGraphs gives them 8.1% playoff odds at this point. Red Sox were 38 W - 36 L when they traded Devers away. FanGraphs gave them 34.7% playoff odds at that point. Red Sox have gone 24 W - 15 L since trading Devers away. FanGraphs gives them 76.8% playoff odds at this point.

Wiemer hit 287/368/520 (134 wRC+) with a 12.1 BB% | 19.5 K% over 174 PA at Nashville in 2022. Over 670 PA since then at AAA he has hit 201/318/310 (71 wRC+) with a 13.4 BB% | 26.9 K%. That 71 wRC+ ranks 283rd of 292 AAA hitters with at least 600 PA since 2023.

Brewers Trade Aaron Civale To White Sox For Andrew Vaughn
sveumrules replied to wibadgers23's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Speaking of the White Sox. Last year they had the worst record in over 50 years, but were not eligible for the draft lottery with the new stipulations so they picked 10th this year. Now this year the Rockies could end up in the same neighborhood as the White Sox last year, but they too are not eligible for the draft lottery so will pick not higher than 10th either. The Nationals currently have the 3rd worst record in MLB, but are also not eligible for the lottery so will likely end up with pick #11. White Sox are once again eligible after missing out last year so they should end up with top odds for the #1 pick next year. -
here’s some lunchables for now kid, pitch good and we’ll stop at Dairy Queen on the way home
-
Durbin had three PA today, Seigler had two.
-
Caleb Durbin now up to ten PAs as a substitute this year. He has five walks, two singles, a hit by pitch and a sac fly.
-
Right, which is a perfect example why getting bent out of shape about batting orders before games is pointless…especially with this year’s team.
-
Today is Seigler’s seventh start at 3B this year, results of those first six games were… 0702 at NYM (W) 7 to 2 0702 at NYM (L) 3 to 7 0713 vs WAS (W) 8 to 1 0721 at SEA (W) 6 to 0 0723 at SEA (W) 10 to 2 0729 vs CHI (W) 9 to 3 So, 5 W - 1 L with a +28 run differential before today.
-
Yeah, that 96 MPH comeback sinker that burned off the outside corner to get House looking and end the inning was pretty much vintage Woody.

Going back to 2017 the Brewers have won at least 86 games every full season. Over those seven completed full seasons, plus the first four months of this season there have been 46 months total (counting Mar/Apr and Sept/Oct as one month where applicable). The Brewers have posted 32 winning months and four exactly .500 months during that stretch. Their ten losing months have been... 0717 (12 W - 13 L) 0618 (12 W - 13 L) 0719 (12 W - 13 L) 0819 (12 W - 14 L) 0521 (13 W - 15 L) 0921 (14 W - 15 L) 0622 (12 W - 15 L) 0822 (12 W - 15 L) 0523 (11 W - 16 L) 0724 (11 W - 13 L) If I counted right there are 19 predictions in the thread and four of them are for a .433 W% or lower. The Brewers have only had one month in the last 46 with a winning percentage that low. The Brewers have had at least one losing month every season of the stretch, and so far this year they are at all four winning months so they are due for a stinker at some point especially after a blazing 33 W - 16 L (.673 W%) in June/July. I'll hold out hope that they can mitigate that regression to some extent though and won't play too much worse than the 31 W - 28 L (.525 W%) they posted over the first two months of the season from here on out.

Not sure Henderson will be back up. He's already at 98 IP (previous career high of 81 IP) and hasn't looked good for about six weeks now. He got bombed for 5 ER in his first AAA start of the season, but after that he locked in from April 3rd through June 13th pitching 39 IP in AAA with a 0.92 ERA | 2.60 FIP to go along with his 21 IP of 1.71 ERA | 3.05 FIP work in MLB during that same stretch. Since June 13th? 34 IP of 5.77 ERA | 4.95 FIP. Patrick, Myers, maybe even Gasser might be bullpen options as it gets closer to playoff time and there's an extra roster spot in September, but I'd guess for now they prefer to keep them stretched out on a regular schedule over getting spot work as the last guy in the MLB pen.

It’s almost like the worse the lineup that Murph runs out there, the more runs Ueck sends down our way.
-
THATS WHAT SPEED DO
-
My guess would be Seigler. Believe he is ambidextrous and was a switch pitcher in high school.
-
Best tickle in franchise history...Nyjer single into the outfield Worst tickle in franchise history...Chourio's hammy

The pure numbers looks like this... 2022 Vaughn xwOBA: .319 wOBA: .327 2023 Vaughn xwOBA: .319 wOBA: .321 2024 Vaughn xwOBA: .319 wOBA: .304 As his actual production gradually tapered off over the last three years, Vaughn's under the hood expected StatCast numbers stayed very consistent. 2025 Vaughn xwOBA: .354 wOBA: .290 Unfortunately StatCast doesn't break down expected wOBA by team, but it's easy to see the Vaughn from this year is a different hitter under the hood than the Vaughn from the last three years. Now of course no one should expect him to keep up the .475 wOBA he's got with the Brewers so far, that would be preposterous. But we also shouldn't be giving very much weight to the .231 wOBA he posted with the White Sox earlier this year as there was clearly as much or more bad luck in there than there is good luck in what he's doing now. Some guys with an actual wOBA in the range of Vaughn's .354 xwOBA this year are Matt Olson (.356 wOBA), Tatis Jr. (.355 wOBA), Gunnar Henderson (.353 wOBA), Mike Trout (.351 wOBA) and Bobby Witt (.351 wOBA).

The Brewers made three deadline moves - Jansen, Miller, and Lockridge. I'd say the nature of the Brewers moves these last couple days showed both confidence in the players on hand and a desire to supplement them around the margins.
-
One aspect of Stearns signing more position player FA than Arnold is that we hadn’t built out the prospect procurement / development infrastructure to produce those players in house yet. Since Arnold took over (2023-now) Brewers rookie position players are tops in MLB with 14.5 WAR. From 2016-22 under Stearns Brewers rookie position players only managed 9.6 WAR (13th).

The Brewers most recent “best chance to win a World Series” was before Game 7 of the 2018 NLCS. 27 teams had already been eliminated, all they had to do was beat the Dodgers then win four of seven versus Boston. FanGraphs gave that sequence of events a 9.0% chance of happening. No matter what moves are or aren’t made, early in the season or at the deadline, the Brewers are always going to be a World Series long shot.

Seems like an awful lot of consternation over not trading for Willi Castro or Ramon Urias (neither of whom can really play SS anyway). Or was a legit SS moved and I missed it?
