    Freddie Freeman re-imagined as a 5'11" middle infielder? I'll take it !!

    ERA is a fine stat for communicating how good a pitcher and his defense are at preventing runs. The peripherals tell us more about the pitcher's individual abilities. I don't look down on either, they both work in conjunction. Like Bryse Wilson has a 3.42 ERA with the Brewers and that's better than Freddy Peralta's 3.68 ERA with the Brewers. But we all know Peralta is a better pitcher than Wilson which is most succinctly communicated by Freddy having a 3.68 FIP versus a 4.68 FIP for Bryse.

    After three walks and zero hits through four innings, DSL Gold made a game of it anyway falling 14-12 with one of those good old fashioned DSL football scores (two point conversion to tie was stuffed at the goal line as the clock expired). Some box highlights... Christopher Acosta (triple, two walks) Kenny Fenelon (single, walk, HBP, stolen base) Jonathan Rangel (Home Run, sac fly, walk) Francis Sosa (double, two walks) Roniel Paulino (double, single, three walks) Fabian Reyes (one 3U3D inning)

    Jorge Quintana also back in the lineup at DH for the ACL Crew after an eight day absence.

    Couple pitching duels in the early innings on the island. DSL Blue hitters have just a pair of singles from Justin Lugo and Joan Gutierrez while Luis Velasquez has given up just a walk and single through three innings (1 K). DSL Gold hitters have no hits to speak of while Christopher Peralta surrendered a solo shot and single through three with three strikeouts. Wandy Cabrera now on for the Gold fourth and is having himself more of an On The Island inning with two walks, two wild pitches and an HBP so far to load the bases with one out.

    It sure seems like Marco Dinges is the magic elixir. Carolina was 26-12 after Dinges' final Carolina League game. Since Dinges joined Wisconsin, the Rattlers are 16-6. So, Marco and his 1.002 season-long OPS has enjoyed a 2025 42-18 record in uniform! Awesome pull @Jim Goulart Definitely paid off the cliffhanger in the title.

    Yes, the same Mark Canha with a 67 wRC+ this year that can only play LF (where we have Collins 102 wRC+), RF (where we have Frelick 114 wRC+), 1B (where we have Rhys 113 wRC+), or DH (where we have Yelich 106 wRC+). Our backup at those positions Jake Bauers has a 111 wRC+ too (to say nothing of the 0.00 ERA) so Canha wouldn’t be an upgrade over him either.

    Logan Henderson surrendered three singles and a double in the first but it only added up to one run with a little help from himself (picking off a runner at 1st) and Eddie Rosario (gunning down a runner at home). Sounds got the run back in the second when EMJ singled, advanced on a groundout, and scored on an Oliver Dunn RBI single.

    DSL Gold has been low scoring this year at 3.63 R/G scored and 4.13 R/G allowed. DSL Blue is at 7.38 R/G scored and 6.88 R/G allowed, so maybe you've just been keying in on the Gold games.
  10. sveumrules
    DSL Blue currently tied 4-4 in the ninth. Offense has featured four doubles from Angel Gonzalez, Brailyn Antunez, Johanderson Tarazona, and Kegnnalex Seijas. Sixteen year old Steven Duran opened the game with a perfect inning (1 K) in his debut outing. Seventeen year old Merwin Manrique also made his debut and worked around a walk, single and HBP after two outs to retire the sixth man up and record the zero (1 K) in the 8th inning.

    DSL Gold pull off the 4-1 victory. Select box highlights include... Christopher Acosta (single, double, stolen base) Kenny Fenelon (single, HBP x2, stolen base x2) Francis Sosa (second HR of season, stole base) Raymond Sarmiento (4.1 IP | 1 R | 3 H | 1 BB | 2 K) Joan Pena (4.0 IP | 0 R | 3 H | 2 BB | 7 K)

    He kinda is, but he's also a pretty major regression candidate as the season goes along. 2021 (his current best season) was 144 IP of 67 ERA- | 73 FIP- which shook out to 4.6 rWAR | 4.0 fWAR. The quantity wasn't there, but the run suppression was supported up by the peripherals at 144 K%+ | 109 BB%+ | 71 HR9+ So far this year he is at 77 IP of 67 ERA- | 97 FIP-. The run prevention is still there, but the peripherals have backed up big time at 112 K%+ | 112 BB%+ | 100 HR9+. The main thing saving Freddy so far this year is a redonculous strand rate. From 2022-24 he ran an 86 AVG+ | 105 LOB%+, so he was really hard to get a hit off of helping him run a better than average strand rate. This year he is limiting hits slightly more at an 84 AVG+, but the strand rate has exploded to a 119 LOB%+ that is likely unsustainable. Love Freddy, and he has more than earned an extension, just not sure the Brewers should be paying any pitcher $20M plus for multiple years in their thirties.

    Will be interesting to see how the change of venue and fielders impacts an extreme fly baller like Civale. White Sox stadium has a 96 park factor for HR per StatCast versus a 106 for AmFam, so that should help. StatCast has pegged Brewers OF for +10 FRV (2nd) versus -8 FRV (27th) for the White Sox, so big downgrade there.

    Vaughn is only $5.85M, so saves a couple million at least. If Brenton Del Chiaro and staff can unlock the goods that made him the #3 overall pick that would be pretty cool.
  15. sveumrules
    Definitely cool to see him tapping into the power with more regularity. Last couple years his .168/.169 ISO were nice (especially considering his youth) but the BB/HBP were still doing a lot of the heavy lifting. So far this year the ISO is up .235 and after tonight’s bomb the only guys in the Southern League with a higher ISO will be Wilken and Xavier Isaac.
  16. sveumrules
    Where is he going to play? Two errors in only 45 career innings at 3B. It doesn't appear the Brewers have any desire to move Turang to SS midseason. Maybe they could give Seigler regular DH at bats if Yelich is going to need an IL stint.
  17. sveumrules
    Civale’s kinda fun with how he goes about his business. He’s up to 96 IP with MIL and there are 190 pitchers with at least 100 IP going back to last year. First thing that jumps out is all the bombs. Civale’s 156 HR+ would slot in at 182nd. Though that is partly a function of all the fly balls. Civale’s 128 FB+ would slot in at 6th. Strikeouts (93 K+), Walks (96 BB+), Hits (98 AVG+), Base Runners (97 WHIP+) are all pretty middling. As you may have surmised that all shakes out to a pretty ugly 121 FIP- that would slot in at 172nd. So how has he managed to keep runs off the board (94 ERA- would slot in 82nd) at an above average rate with the Brewers? When all those fly balls aren’t sailing over the fence they result in a low 89 BABIP+ (26th) and high strand rate with a 114 LOB+ (10th).

    I dunno, I think the season ticket holders would enjoy the 20 W - 13 L home record so far (never mind the -5 run differential). Meanwhile all those road runs (& the corresponding +35 differential) have only shaken out to a 16 W - 19 L record.
  19. sveumrules
    The main reason is it’s easier to control his workload in the lower stakes environs of AAA than it is in the fighting for a playoff spot MLB. After 97 IP last year I’d guess they want to keep Misio around 130 or so this year. With 63 IP already under his belt let’s say that leaves around 70 yet to throw. That’s fourteen starts at five innings each, but there are still eighteen trips through a five man rotation after Thursday. I guess 18 x 4 gets you to 72 too. The math more or less dictates that it will take some degree of creativity to have Misio pitching meaningful innings in Sept (& hopefully Oct). Think the thought process would be something like giving him a mini breather here for the rest of June/July (extra days / lower innings in AAA) sets him up better to help the MLB team down the stretch (& hopefully beyond) after a spot or two open up at the deadline.

    Durbin is hitting 246/338/391 (107 wRC+) during the Brewers recent 15 W - 7 L run. Ortiz is at 230/338/328 (95 wRC+) over that same stretch. Nothing earth shattering by any means, but massive improvements (some might call it positive regression) on the 53 and 26 wRC+ marks they were sporting on May 17th.
  21. sveumrules
    Drats. Hard not to feel for Tobias. Demetrio giveth (two run HR) and taketh away (walkoff error). Such is life…On The Complex.
  22. sveumrules
    Maybe it will be enough to warrant the ever elusive ACL highlight clip package from BrewersPD.
  23. sveumrules
    Griffin Tobias back out for the sixth and works around a leadoff single to put up another zero, adding another strikeout.
  24. sveumrules
    Outside of the solo homer Griffin Tobias has only allowed a single over four frames with three strikeouts. He has yet to walk a batter in 19.2 IP. Jadyn Fielder has four triples already (on the season, not this game).
  25. sveumrules
    A two RBI Luis Lara double drives home Pratt & Wilken (who both walked) to give Biloxi a 9-8 lead top eight.
