I should go to the forum suggestions page and recommend we create a pitch by pitch update of all Suarez and McMahon bats for the rest of the season. That way each side can feel validated after every strikeout or extra base hit (depending on your camp) 🙂
Eugenio Suarez has .385 OPS through 13 AB with Seattle I appreciate it has only been three games.
That is lower than Oliver Dunn’s .427 OPS this year in Milwaukee
Milwaukee is 33-22 against teams over .500. That is .600 winning percentage.
Milwaukee is 32-22 against teams with losing records.
Brewers technically perform better against good teams. By 0.5 game
Durbin OBP: .344
Eugenio Suarez: .319
Durbin has 9th best OBP of any 3B with 250 AB or more this season.
Durbin has 9.5% K rate, which is astonishing to me. Best of any 3B in MLB (minimum 250 AB).
It’s very clear Murphy is saving his pen for the weekend. McGee just needed to allow fewer than 12 runs in the ninth. Doubt we see McGee again this month.
Brightside: if Mark A is comfortable raising payroll in 2025 for inactive players, he could be comfortable raising payroll in 2026 for active players 🙂
Gallagher was 6th round pick last year. 1.59 ERA after two starts in AA. 22 years old
Armstrong 13th round pick in 2023. 4.62 ERA in AA. 24 years old
Gallagher seems useful. Armstrong 🤷♂️
I’m not sure Kittredge or Soroka strike fear in many people. Taylor Rogers FIP and WHIP are underwhelming. You stack them on top of Willi Castro and you maybe got one win improvement.
Some of it does seem like an impulse buy at the checkout counter when the store is about to close in 40 seconds, you just throw something into your cart 🙂
