    & now Reece "I'll Buy The Beer" Walling walks home a fourth Mudcat run.
  2. sveumrules
    & Demetrio shows no respect for his elder by singling home a third Carolina run.
  3. sveumrules
    Meanwhile opposing pitchers have been 23, 22 and now 25 for the Nationals.
  4. sveumrules
    & Tyler takes his walk to put the Mudcats back on top 2-1.
  5. sveumrules
    Filippo walks to load the bases, will be up to Tyler Rodriguez (or Demetrio Nadal barring a double play) to get themselves some RBI.
  6. sveumrules
    Made walks & steals second, Anderson walks, Made steals third to get runners on the corners nobody out. Bitonti strikes out and now we've got Babe Di Turi at the plate trying to cash them in as Anderson steals second.

    Gets the first two batters to ground out to SS, then gives up back to back singles on his 93rd/94th pitches. Looks like they're rolling with him for at least one more batter and he gets the strikeout to end the inning. Impressive outing.
  8. sveumrules
    Sam still working hard at 77 pitches through four innings with 2 H | 1 R | 3 BB | 5 K and a wild pitch. Looks like his season high is 82 pitches so that will probably be it for him.

    Literal boy among menz (Jackson Ross especially).

    That 6th HR ties Filippo for 5th in the Carolina League so far... Freili Encarnacion (8 HR) 20yo | 6'2" | 181 lbs Ramon Ramirez (8 HR) 20yo | 6'0" | 180 lbs Caden Powell (7 HR) 21yo | 6'3" | 200 lbs Cesar Hernandez (7 HR) 22yo | 6'0" | 195 lbs Jackson Ross (6 HR) 25yo | 6'2" | 210 lbs Filippo Di Turi (6 HR) 19yo | 5'11" | 165 lbs

    Filippo Di Turi (1 HR in 613 PA entering the season) went deep for the sixth time this year (177 PA so far) to lead off the second inning.

    Good to see Lara starting to heat up. His best run prior to this year was at Carolina in 2023... Lara (318 PA at CAR in 23) 285/379/354 (111 wRC+) 12.3 BB% | 14.5 K% .335 BABIP | .069 ISO Lara (200 PA at BIL in 25) 262/365/357 (116 wRC+) 14.5 BB% | 18.0 K% .321 BABIP | .095 ISO Before this recent stretch I had him in more of the Blake Perkins quality 4th OF most likely outcome. Think he's probably still there for me right now, but this heater has inched a few percentage points into the more optimistic Frelick/Turang kind of outcome anyway. Still feel like someone with his wheels should have better than a .312 BABIP for his stateside career, though I guess Turang wasn't much better with a .321 BABIP off the complex. Frelick had a .346 BABIP for his minor league career, though of course he was never a teenager in affiliated ball either.

    My gut tells me neither Peralta nor Woodruff will be dealt at the deadline so “not trading Peralta” will be the next big source of consternation. If Peralta is dealt & the return is anything less than a Consensus Top Ten Big Name kind of prospect (even though Freddy’s “never been an Ace”) then it’ll be “selling low on Peralta” instead.
  14. sveumrules
    The other Jesus (Flores) walks the tight rope to secure the 4-3 Mudcats win. After Bitonti, Di Turi, and Nadal singles plated two in the top half of the eleventh, Jesus went single, line out, walk, wild pitch, intentional walk before striking out the last two with the bases juiced.

    Last year the Brewers played their 54th game on May 28th. On that date DET (26-27), HOU (24-31), NYM (22-32), and ARI (25-29) were all under .500. Three of those teams went on to make the playoffs and Arizona lost the tiebreaker with 89 wins. In 2023 the Brewers played their 54th game on May 30th. On that date PHI (25-29) was under .500 and made the playoffs. The Yankees were 34-23 and went on to miss the playoffs that year. In 2022 the Brewers played their 54th game on June 3rd. On that date CLE (23-24), SEA (23-29), ATL (26-27), and PHI (23-29) were all under .500 and made the playoffs. Most of the teams that are in the playoffs or close to it at this point are going to get most of the spots at the end of year too, but if recent history is any guide (I'm sure there's plenty more examples farther back too) they won't get ALL the spots. Personally, I don't have much faith in the Brewers making an improbable run, but if I did have faith it wouldn't be all that improbable either so the two go kind of go hand in hand. Here's what I do think I know, though. If the Ghost of Uecker is perchance pulling strings from The Great Beyond, he wouldn't draw it up for the Brewers to go wire to wire leading the division all year and cruising to the postseason. Feel like a gifted story teller such as Bob would come up with a much more devious arc than that.

    You honestly believe the front office will behave as buyers at the deadline if they keep playing like this for the next two months? Sounds like you've already moved beyond desperation to a crisis of faith.
  17. sveumrules
    If it's OK to have a down year why would be in very desperate times as a fanbase?

    45 days on the active roster (regardless of how many IP) would also disqualify him for ROY consideration in 2026.
  19. sveumrules
    Here are the K/BB ratios (& ages) for the eleven Zona Crew pitchers with at least 5 IP… Renz (18) 15 IP | 13 K | 3 BB Dubanewicz (19) 13 IP | 14 K | 4 BB Dorchies (18) 12 IP | 19 K | 3 BB Mercedes (18) 10.1 IP | 18 K | 4 BB King (19) 10.1 IP | 8 K | 3 BB Mercado (18) 10 IP | 13 K | 2 BB Tobias (19) 8 IP | 9 K | 0 BB Carra (18) 7 IP | 9 K | 1 BB Quezada (21) 6.2 IP | 9 K | 2 BB Aparicio (19) 6 IP | 7 K | 3 BB Meneses (20) 5.1 IP | 8 K | 2 BB Obviously still dealing in early season small sample territory, but pretty impressive stuff from a group of predominantly teenage hurlers to open the year.
  20. sveumrules
    Seigler must be feeling alright. 102 MPH single, stole second, to third on an error, and scored the first Sounds run on a Nick Kahle RBI single to make it a 2-1 ballgame after two innings.
  21. sveumrules
    Misio threw 97 IP last year. I'd imagine they don't want him throwing much more than 130-140 IP this year (he's already at 52). I'd guess when he does get the call that they'll be similarly cautious with how many innings he throws and batters he faces just like they do with the other young arms.
  22. sveumrules
    Misio walked 12 guys in his first 18.2 IP and really only has six appearances / 33.2 IP / one calendar month of dominating performance under his belt at this point. I've got no problem letting him stack a few more good outings to show whatever changes he has made are sustainable before throwing him to the wolves in MLB.
  23. sveumrules
    Sure that would be more exciting, but for Wilken its questionable whether that would be the best thing for his long term development. Entering the month he was hitting .164 in AA. Not sure a three week heater no matter how scorching is enough to promote him straight away to MLB. I don't doubt Misio could step into the MLB rotation and perform right now, but I also don't see the need to call him up immediately. The rotation is doing fine without him (5th in ERA- | 6th in rWAR since 0401) and there are a number of veteran arms coming back that are going to need those starts if we want to get anything for them at the deadline. Let guys like Rodriguez, Priester, Henderson and Patrick who are already on the 40 Man bounce back and forth until it sorts itself out. Jacob's first four starts he walked 12 guys in 18.2 IP. It's only been in his last five starts (7 BB in 30.2 IP) that he's appeared to have turned a corner. I'm fine with letting him build on that recent success for awhile longer then adding him to the 40 Man and calling him up after the deadline.

    So far he’s got 11 HR, 41 BB/HBP and 47 K in 176 PAs for a whopping 56.25 3TO%. For comparison Rob Deer was at a 49.78% for his career, Adam Dunn came in at 50.96%, Schwarber is sitting on 49.44%. Even the mighty Branyan could only muster a 51.35%.

    If this is No Man’s Land where are the Pirates? Or the Rockies? That feels overly dire to me. With the young talent in place and on its way I’d say we’re closer to the Waiting Room even if they do finish with their first losing full season in almost a decade. How are they not fully committing to a youth movement? They’ve got the 5th youngest position player group in MLB. Eight of their top ten batters by PAs so far this year are 27 or younger under long term control. Last year Contreras, Chourio, Ortiz, Frelick, Turang, Mitchell, and Perkins combined for 20 WAR. This year they are on pace for like 11 or 12. Young players (& Yelich) are the main cause(s) of the team’s struggles to this point. Between various injuries to Quero, Black, Boeve and Wilken last year, plus Pratt still being incredibly young (one of only five players 20 or younger in AA) none of their upper level prospects are really in a position to help the MLB team at the moment.
