    Lil smoother sailing in the 3rd and 4th innings for Brett going seven up six down (3 K) with just a single and stolen base in there.

    Ortiz has been coming around with a 100 wRC+ over 35 PA during this recent 8 W - 3 L stretch. Not sure they’d want to swap him out just when he and the team are starting to see some better results.

    From the pitchers perspective a foul ball is worse than a swing and miss, but depending on the outcome could be better than a batted ball in fair territory. Accidentally groove a meatball and it gets fouled back instead of smoked for an XBH? Phew. Throw a wicked breaker for strike three and the batter somehow clips it to stay alive? (expletive deleted) I’d guess an ancillary benefit for the pitcher could come from reading the swing. Sometimes how the batter fouls off a pitch can offer clues to get him out with the next one.

    Found this blurb on foul balls / pitches thrown in a Travis Sawchik article… “There were 129,954 foul balls hit last season in total, trailing only 2019 (which had the most total pitches thrown on record because of the elevated run-scoring environment). For context, there were more than 15,000 additional foul balls last season than in 1998, the first year there were 30 MLB teams. That's a 14% rise in foul balls even though total pitches thrown has only grown by 1.6%.“

    Feel like most of his misery is of his own making. I get the old front office promised him he'd get to play 3rd base, but they are gone and Devers is one of the worst defensive 3B of the advanced metrics era with -62 DRS | -21 FRV. You already got your $313M so suck it up and say "I'm willing to do whatever is best for the team."

    Haha, they kept panning over to Devers looking emo during Yelich's interview last night too. Can only imagine the indignity of getting swept by this Milwaukee team.

    Purely anecdotal, but the velocity readings at TRats games have always seemed a tick slow to me. Wonder if they have the stadium gone trained on home plate instead of picking it up closer to the pitcher's hand like StatCast does?

    Burke singles & steals his FIFTH base of the season, Dinges walk and a Baez RBI single makes it 3-1. Tayden Hall follows with a two RBI double to make it 5-1 and we have a mound visit.
  9. sveumrules
    Woody gave up one unearned in the fifth on account of a Daniel Guilarte error, but the TRats bats have answered back & atoned with Tayden Hall doubling, then coming around to score on a Guilarte single.
  10. sveumrules
    Areinamo doubled, Garcia walked, a Burke lineout to RF advanced Jadher to third, and Dinges drove him home with a sac fly to get the Wisco the first run of the game. Woodruff is 12U12D with the aforementioned pickoff and three strikeouts. 44 pitches, 30 strikes.

    Sure those aren't good in a vacuum, but they certainly represent a recovery compared to the 18 wRC+ he put up in July of 2024 and also represented an improvement over the 61 wRC+ he put up during the 2023 season. I don't think anyone realistically expected Turang to bounce all the way back to the 117 wRC+ he posted over the first three months of 2024.
  12. sveumrules
    No velocity readings on GameDay but Woodruff went three up three down in the first on six pitches. Goes 3U3D again in the second, this time needing nine pitches and striking out a batter.
  13. sveumrules
    I probably would have left the clip at just the home run. The single and double definitely featured some On The Complex defense. Either way, love to see Jeferson working his way back.

    They scored 5-2-5-7-7-6 runs over their last six games in April. 32 runs over a six game stretch is 5.33 R/G, well above the MLB average of 4.31 R/G. The offense didn't really turn putrid until May so coming up on four weeks. These things tend to go up and down throughout the season. In April they scored the 4th most runs per game and went 16 W - 11 L. So far in May they've scored the 2nd fewest runs per game and still managed to go 12 W - 13 L to this point, pretty remarkable really. I don't think anyone believes the Brewers have a Top Four offense in baseball, though plenty seem to believe they do in fact have a Bottom Two offense in baseball. I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle so I'd expect them to perform better in aggregate over the remaining 106 games than they have over the last 25. Then again, if we go back to May 18th (first game after the four shutouts in five games) they have scored 5-5-5-4-8-5-1-6-3-5 runs for 47 runs in their last ten games during which they've gone 7 W - 3 L . . . so maybe it's already begun and the true putrid stretch was really only like 2.5 weeks from May 1st until 17th (& the four March games of course).

    It’s not just you, batters lead the ACL in walks and pitchers have the second lowest walk rate.
  16. sveumrules
    After taking a break in the fifth with no runs scored, Zona Crew might be up to something again here in the sixth. Corobo walk and Paulino double (his 2nd of the game) to open the inning. Ibarguen walks on a wild pitch to score Corobo, 14-5. & a Holguin groundout scores Paulino, 15-5.
  17. sveumrules
    Dubanewicz must not realize he’s pitching in the ACL…three up three down with another K.
  18. sveumrules
    Maybe even more impressive than the offense scoring 13 runs through four innings…Dubanewicz with his second 4U3D inning (1 BB | 2 K).
  19. sveumrules
    Complex Crew is just insane. Engel Paulino doubled, stole third and scored on a errant throw. 12-5. Ibarguen walked, Holguin doubled, wild pitch. 13-5.
  20. sveumrules
    Jayden Dubanewicz on for the fourth inning and he notches a four up three down zero (1 K).
  21. sveumrules
    Quero’s turn on the homer carousel !!
  22. sveumrules
    Ortuno promptly drilled by the new pitcher.
  23. sveumrules
    & Holguin goes deep. Nine to five, we’ve entered the Dolly Zone.
  24. sveumrules
    Zero Alert !! Zero Alert !! Mercedes goes four up three down top of three.
  25. sveumrules
    Paulino and Ibarguen each singled then double stole a run home. Holguin walked on a wild pitch to put runners on 2nd/3rd setting up Ortuno to sac fly a second run home. & now Quero doubles home a third run to tie it back up at five each. Quintana walks making it 1st/2nd one out for Montero.
