  1. Not exactly. I know where his house is but it’s a little north and east of us.
  2. Shouldn’t have given Contreras anything to hit.
  3. Whitefish Bay. About a mile from the lake and 5 miles north of downtown. They are out practicing for the show this weekend so we’ll be seeing/hearing them for a few days. They started yesterday.
  4. Unless the Braves rally they’ll be coming to AFF on a 5 game losing streak.
  5. This isn’t a good triples park for a cycle. Best bet for Yelich would be a sharp grounder past the first baseman and down the line into the corner.
  6. If they have Adames, Winker, and Miller batting 3,4, and 5 they could walk both of them and escape unscathed more often than not.
  7. My attention is being divided by the Blue Angels flying over and around the house.
  8. I understand that, but the productive part of the “month” came in the first 8 days. Saying that the Brewers offense has been scoring a lot of runs and getting a lot of hits when they’ve scored 17 runs in the last 6 games is more than a little misleading. Since the ASG and coming into today the Brewers are dead last in MLB in runs scored.
  9. After the All Star Break counts too. If he said the Brewers had been scoring a lot of runs before the break that would be something else again.
  10. Half of the game’s running time so far was in the replay review of the pickoff.
  11. Getaway day special. Swing early, get the game over, and get out of town.
  12. Is Dillard seriously trying to tell us that in July the Brewers offense has produced “a lot of runs and a lot of hits”?
  13. I always liked the Phillies 70’s vintage powder blue uniforms. Raises memories of a team I liked with Mike Schmidt, Larry Bowa, Steve Carlton, et al.
  14. I think he’s also referring to the team that has won 5 in a row and 8 of its last 10 and has seen its Fangraphs playoff probability increase to 11%.
  15. I can’t see the columns on that chart and the ads on the site block half of it. But is it telling you that Owen Miller is the best defensive first baseman in MLB and Freddie Freeman isn’t one of the top 20? What is the meaning of the alphabet soup you provided ? Does any of it translate to “ability to scoop low throws?
  16. A below league average bat is an above Brewers average bat. For my education, what advanced stats are you using to conclude that Miller is one of the better defensive 1B in MLB.? If he is it must be because most teams prioritize hitting over defense at the position.
  17. Really. It isn’t that hard to follow a baseball game and carry on a conversation at the same time.
  18. Exactly. They were saying on the telecast after he botched a couple of plays against the Cubs that Miller was out working with the coaches on footwork and scooping throws. That doesn’t sound like something you do with a seasoned, polished 1B if you think his misplays are just one of those things that happen to everyone. I don’t know how some of those advanced defensive statistics are derived, but maybe they focus more on range and fielding ground balls than the ability to come up with imperfect throws. First base is usually seen as a position where you put a prolific hitter. Even if Miller were a gold glove fielder, the team would be getting hurt by his offense. And he is not a gold glove fielder.
  19. A good first baseman doesn’t miss as many plays as Miller has in his short time at 1B for the Brewers . Maybe the stats are inaccurate or misleading, or he has been much worse for the Brewers than he has been in the past.
  20. Regardless of who should have been charged with the error, that was the easiest short hop a first baseman can get. Easier than fielding a ground ball. That flub opened the door for the inning. Miller isn’t hitting anywhere near well enough for a first baseman who is a defensive liability.
  21. Just saw that 12 teams in MLB scored in double digits yesterday. First time that has happened since 1894. The Brewers reached double digits last night too; it just took them 5 games to get there.
  22. When I see that offense I feel like the Brewers will be lucky to win a game or two out of six against them.
  23. I wonder if we’ll be seeing Harper make his debut at 1B tomorrow.
  24. Adames’ hot streaks seem to last for 2 or 3 days then he reverts to pulling off everything.
