    Didn't know until today after seeing some mlb network discussion that this good streak by TX to get close is being done with Seager and Semien on the DL. Evaldi is down too. On paper this is not a very good looking team right now. But they're playing well at the moment.
  2. tmwiese55
    Yes, quite the domino effect on if Civale just stays the course. Vaughn might still be tinkering on the Sox. We don't get that hot streak that helped vault MKE to the big lead. Who knows where things are at right now. Also, I personally am shocked that all the 'they're going to collapse and they suck' folks were wrong again. I look forward to seeing them all again after they lose in October so they can claim to have been right all along.

    Ha, right. On paper, I'd probably say Sea has the best team in the AL. So tough to put it on management too much. But more or less, they're in the same spot they were before the moves and with the same % at a WS. While I'd think putting a dent in their farm for two guys who'll be gone at end of year

    Wow. That's absurd. Funny thing is for fantasy baseball, seemingly every time I have a starter leave a game with the lead the last month or so his pen blows the game. I have Yamamoto. I actually hadn't even checked it since he gave up the HR, figured it would be no problem over. then I saw this, crazy loss for them and the streak continues for me

    Too funny that Bauers came through again today. Good for him couldn't watch today so not privy too much. but saw no Yeli again. Wonder if him to DL is gonna be the way to get Hoskins back as his deadline comes up. lead back to 6.5 you can probably play it super safe

    it popped in my head after the L yesterday that if they sweep Pit this weekend its as good as over. You'd be at 89 wins with like 21 games left or something like that.
  7. tmwiese55
    yea i get that. But, Reynolds robbed two great hits in RF to save them 3 runs. I don't know if they called Vaughn's hit up the middle there an E or not, but imo it was a hit. Bad to even throw the ball though to give us a run
  8. tmwiese55
    I haven't watched a play of either nfl game yet, probably won't until the packers games trying to take it easy this weekend so being online keeping me from getting bored and going out
  9. tmwiese55
    One AB for the game on line or a less than 2 outs guy on third, I think I'd go with Bauers
  10. tmwiese55
    Also I don't know much about the RAmirez who just pitched. But quick looks it seems he's bounced around, only has a 5.5 era this year. If he's available in the offseason I'd be all over that guy and see what our coaches can do with that stuff
  11. tmwiese55
    What he was on the Sox before the last year and a half was competent starter. Then who knows *** happened there for a bit. Then he comes here and goes nuts. Chances are he's in between the *** and Babe ruth. Which would be somewhere in the ballpark of competency that he was before the crash. I'd say that's what most people hope or think could happen. Being an All Star 300, 1000ops 35/hr, 100 rbi I don't think is in anyone's realistic expectation. and even that just OKness he was on CWS before he crashed is more than Bauers has ever shown. And note I'm not a Bauers basher, I've been a general defender at times on here
  12. tmwiese55
    people made jokes about it. Nobody believed he had suddenly turned into babe ruth
  13. tmwiese55
    I don't think anyone here worships Vaughn or doesn't realize a snap back to reality was gonna come. Some jokers were fun at the time though I'm sure Also, even if Bauers had any kind of stretch or past akin to just what Vaughn had on CWS when he was young the point might be valid. He had back to back seasons with 750ish OPS and around 20 hr 75rbis for two seasons not that long ago
  14. tmwiese55
    ha, too funny. its crazy how much that happens. stuff we talk about and say before the game that doesn't make sense, then that guy comes through
  15. tmwiese55
    That could be a merger of topics. This goes on another day or two for Yeli and you might as well DL him. That lines right up pretty well with Hoskins approaching deadline
  16. tmwiese55
    Yea I have no real beef with Bauers the way many here do. But managements seeming dedication to him seems kind of odd. If you lose him when you DFA so be it. Sure he's probably better than Black (his closest positional comp being lefty and 1b/of) but its probably marginal at best and losing that depth this late in the year doesn't seem it should be a concern.
  17. tmwiese55
    Yea this is weird and I haven't seen anyone talking about it? He seems a well liked guy and was generally fine this year before getting hurt. My guess is some kind of roster manipulation thing? Perhaps the longer they hold Bauer the higher chances of keeping him in system when DFAd? Or generally waiting and see if anyone gets hurt before his due date so they can 'dl' that person to keep them. Or maybe if they were planning on Hoskins back in the last few days it got pushed back due to Yelich's issues since Bauers can play OF in a pinch. Just looked and it seems 9/9 is the date they have to activate him by.

    I just looked and Apple doesn't release numbers but its estimated they have over 40 mil subscribers. It was estimated around 25 in 2022. So yea they're doing very well and they do really well at awards time too. that said, I can't imagine MLB drove out new subscribers all that much so I'd generally agree. Granted, I did it last game. Its $10, and you get a whole month so the game plus a month of binging their shows for $10 isn't bad at all. Especially when a burger at mcdonalds is like $13 now. But the nfl on the other hand when Amazon did it for the first time a few years ago it worked just how they wanted, a record spike in subscriptions because of it. usa is just nuts about the nfl, as someone who's blah on nfl it still blows my mind.

    To me the more killer loss or thing that show the bigger issue right now was Monday blowing that big lead. Sure, Phil has great hitters but the biggest thing that has made MKE good for years now is pitching/bullpen. That's their backbone. Monday (along with a few others recently) have shown that strength is faltering right now. Of course partly due to injuries and fatigue caused by the 18 in 17 stretch. And now it seems Mears will be out too. One of our most reliable things all of a sudden is thin. Need Megill to come back strong to sure it up a bit. To me that's the bigger concern that the not scoring much on a rest day vs a good pitcher, while still having tons of scoring opps they effed up. That happens some days and they've generally been one of the best in the league on that so don't have much concern on it now.

    Can't believe he didn't PH Siegler there, what an idiot
  21. tmwiese55
    but they do play 6 in a row more after this. And in this thread there is one contingency bashing the manager for not resting guys enough, and also for resting too much. You have a 6 game lead and don't have to be desperate. You are looking to give guys days off and the best days to do it for LHH are when the other team has a lefty on the mound. Still, I probably hedge it a bit too and with how hot Turang has been I'd have let him roll, save him for an off day next time. I don't know what Perkins was doing today, looks totally out of it
  22. tmwiese55
    yea Jansen sure hasn't paid off. Supposed to be a lefty masher and it just hasn't happened. Sure I get haase is just blah but he was perfectly fine to me, usually came up with a hit/walk per game and seemed to have a bit of knack for coming through. I get wanting to upgrade where possible, especially if Contreras were to get hurt, but it just hasn't worked. Miller move as well didn't work. simpler route probably was just getting a good reliver who wasn't coming off an injury rather than jumping through all the hoops to get him. Hand might've been forced behind the scenes with Cortes wanting out but still a non-injure guy had to be there. Miller was awesome this year though, so i get why they wanted him
  23. tmwiese55
    He was given at least one day off. And keep in mind they were missing 3 OFs in the rotation for a chunk of that span with Chourio, Collins, Perkins. Four if you count backup OF Bauers. Frelick I think even got hurt for a few days in there. At one point they were having to start someone named Steward Berroa for a few days. In spite of all that, Yelich also DHd most of the time which is about as easy as one can take it in baseball.
  24. tmwiese55
    I saw something a few weeks ago trying to explain what's happened to him and my remembrance is a thought is that their pitch selection/location is messing up the tunnelling so its less deceiving as to which pitch is coming. Something like they where they are trying to locate each pitch gives it away which is coming quickly. He might be mentally cooked right now regardless for this season, but it wouldn't surprise me at all that brewers coaching could fix him.
  25. tmwiese55
    Two more defensive botches tonight and really still not much to show for results at the plate lately either. The way this team treats D its shocking the leash he's gotten just due to defense. Probably have to keep tapering off the platoon more as the month goes on. The way it is as of now you can't start him in a playoff game, might as well get Durbin abs against righties to prep for it as much as possible. But still, starts here and there to rest others and to keep him involved are fine. But the time has to be coming that enough is enough
