  1. Nico Hoerner’s injury seems important. Also, Cubs bullpen wasting no time blowing leads and allowing baserunners.
  2. …As Cubs bullpen immediately surrenders lead.
  3. Cubs take 1-0 lead against Dodgers. Counsell goes to bullpen after 4 innings of zero hits from Imanaga. Four walks allowed though.. After a stomach bug (Betts) and rib soreness (Freeman), the Dodgers lineup doesn’t seem too tough.
  4. Turang would have more opportunities to prevent runs at SS than 2B.
  5. Gallo says he will attempt a comeback as a pitcher.
  6. *Tyler Alexander
  7. Does Yelich know he is expected to be the primary DH? I’ve only ever seen stories saying Christian prefers playing in the field.
  8. I’m willing to bet our pitching lab does a good job minimizing elbow and shoulder strain but at the expense of obliques.
  9. The Brewers have won six straight spring training games. Even though it is inconsequential, it does feel good seeing the hitting and run prevention performing well last week. .
  10. Oblique injuries seem common to all teams. There is a lot of rotational force for hitting and pitching. Players strength train their legs to a much higher level than ever before and it seems that abdominal/core/oblique muscles have a hard time keeping up with the force being generated by legs. I am not a doctor, though. Quick search of current oblique injuries from this week: Matt Waldron (SDP) link Sean Manaea (NYM) link Jeff McNeil (NYM) link Tyler Stephenson (CIN) link Jesus Sanchez (MIA) link Why are oblique strains so common? Link
  11. What is our rotation now? Peralta Cortes Civale E. Rodriguez? Bullpen game? I understand Quintana might not be ready until April.
  12. The cap designs look like they were produced by AI.
  13. We are at least a few years away from AI being able to produce this level of brilliance.
  14. Our hard hit rates and EV allowed by Milwaukee pitchers last year was pretty average from what I can tell.
  15. …these hats, they are real?
  16. Looking closer at 2024 team stats, they sure are unfavorable to Brewer pitching. FIP and PRAA, etc. Our BABIP allowed was #4 in baseball…which I assume is defense and luck. Still, when we had Burnes, Woodruff and Peralta the Brewers were considered an elite pitching team. Now we have Peralta, Woodruff (mostly) and a cast of other talented arms and we are now just the ‘defense’ team. That might be true, I suppose 🤷‍♂️
  17. Fair. I trust there are stats for this but is every other pitching staff throwing in front of bad defenses? The Brewers bullpen isn’t very good?
  18. Anyone hopeful the Cubs are 0-2 by the time we finish breakfast on Wednesday? Will the Pirates have their customary ‘fast start’ before fading fast? Are the Reds ready to be above .500? Has anyone heard from the Cardinals?
  19. I appreciate MLB.com rankings are meaningless. However, it seems MLB.com barely has Milwaukee with a ‘top 15’ pitching staff. The Brewers had the fifth best team ERA in baseball last year. If the Tigers and Guardians didn’t have so many games against the White Sox, I believe Milwaukee would have had the third best team ERA in baseball. Yes, we lost 21.2 innings of Devin Williams, but added Nestor Cortes in a contract year. Plus, Woodruff might be healthy and I feel like we have even more talented arms that will contribute in 2025. Can Brewer pitching be even better than last year? link
  20. I appreciate the positive ending of Go Brewers!
  21. Let’s try to not get this thread locked 🙂 The Brewers will be ok. If Shane Smith is more than 1.5 WAR in 2025 it will be disappointing but not emotionally devastating. I will take the under on 1.5 WAR for Shane.
  22. The Internet suggests Nelly can be booked for less than $100,000. https://seattletalentbuying.com/artists/nelly/ If Terrace level tickets are $24 apiece on June 27 then the Brewers would only need to sell around 4,000 additional Terrace level tickets to turn a profit. Not counting parking or additional concessions purchased. I bet this makes money for the Brewers. At least a little bit. Bonus points if we put Nelly in Brewers apparel during a Cardinals series
  23. The Brewers should only market themselves to people who were alive for 1982. And keep ticket prices at 1982 levels.
