  1. At this rate, it sure seems the downside of keeping Yoho in the minors is greater than the benefit of protecting a fringe bullpen member. We don’t seem to struggle with finding high-performing relief pitchers at low cost.
  2. You are allowed to complain that large market teams have the resources to overcome strikeouts but small market teams do not.
  3. Great job getting this first guess in six minutes.
  4. Agreed. Those three did not pan out. Not sure if Brewers mismanaged all three or not. I am on #teamhiura for giving him longer leash to hit against RHP.
  5. Who was the last top prospect that disappointed for Milwaukee? Not necessarily top draft pick but universally recognized high prospect?
  6. Grant Anderson took the hill, His fastball crisp, his slider shrill. With each sharp pitch, he carved the zone, Determined to make this start his own. But Slade Cecconi matched with might, His heater humming, breaking right. Guardians batters roared with pride, While Milwaukee’s dugout swayed with stride. Final frame, the air was tight, A Guardians threat loomed in the night. But the closer fired, sharp and true, A swinging strike—the game was through! Milwaukee stormed the field with pride, A Cactus League win—must-win supplied. Though just the spring, the tone was clear: The Brewers came to fight this year. Credit: ChatGPT
  7. Only if @treego14 is ready for pre game poetry.
  8. If 100% of the .350 OBP person’s outs recorded are strikeouts, I’m not sure that is true. Especially if it lacks slugging percentage. It is such an extreme hypothetical mentioned in the above post. The high OBP only matters if the batters behind him don’t strikeout all the time and also get on base. Putting the ball in play does matter. I think the difference between .330 OBP and .350 OBP is one or two extra times on base per month.
  9. That can’t be universally true, though? If the .350 OBP strands every runner on third and the .330 OBP person drives them in? I also suppose it depends on whether the higher OBP results in runs scored.
  10. @Brock Beauchamp How many team sites are you up to now?
  11. The NFL is boring and trending downward. I appreciate they are still massively popular, though. Los Angeles and Anaheim are more desirable television markets than Milwaukee and Wauwatosa. I would wager there are many more Dodger fans in the world than Brewers, Pirates, Royals, Twins, Rays and Marlins fans combined. We are a small minority. I assume there will be reforms after next CBA. A league with 30 equally mediocre teams is not the way, though.
  12. Tyler Black batted 2nd, 3rd or cleanup for 66% of his plate appearances last year in Milwaukee. He was the #9 hitter for only one plate appearance. Pat Murphy has a strange way of demonstrating a lack of confidence in Tyler Black.
  13. It would be like buying a house for $2 billion and then have it suddenly be worth $500 million less. I get the Dodgers are now worth $5 billion but diminishing your own profits by hundreds of millions is tough.
  14. Billionaires invested billions to buy their franchises, in some cases. It will be hard for them to diminish their own profitability ‘for the good of the game.’
  15. What was Connor’s key point? Can’t get behind paywall.
  16. Joey Wiemer is 1 for 10 this spring and recently turned 26? 🤷‍♂️
  17. I read Chafin signed a minor league deal so the Tigers could maintain roster flexibility until opening day when he will be on the big league roster. https://www.bleachernation.com/cubs/2025/02/24/andrew-chafin-tigers/
  18. I thought our forum had a rule against saying nice things about Andrew Chafin.
  19. Unrelated note: 42-year old Nori Aoki was teammates with Santana last year. Aoki got 129 PA to a tune of .558 OPS. New Brewer, Elvin Rodriguez, was also teammates with Santana last year, too. Small world.
  20. Santana with a .920 OPS in Japan last year. This will be his age 33 season in 2025.
  21. Small sample: did Hoskins appear to not be in the best shape of his life during his home run trot earlier this week? Good news, he hit a HR. Bad news: man, I forget how he lumbers around the bases. Maybe I’m overreacting.
  22. Hudson hit 94 mph today?
