    When Ozuna got close to the wall I was like, “Damn! Going to be short of a HR!”

    Just how many young pitchers come up and dominate? I was hoping for better from Houser tonight for sure, but all is certainly not lost. I think he showed enough for a longer audition. I wasn’t referring to the long term viability at all when it come to Houser. I rarely have any good expectation to someone making an unplanned start like this. All too common someone like Houser gets hammered.

    I mean, did you really expect anything more? Not all of us are pessimists. Haha oooooookaaaay. Or the guy has been mostly terrible for a large portion of his MiLB career and comes up for his starting debut. Not hard to imagine that will go poorly. Not saying he doesn’t have promise, but hardly something special that would come up and dominate.

    I’m waiting for a “Goldy kills us” post. No, our pitching just flat out sucks.

    Arcia nearly getting hit by a pitch, still swings, and hurts himself (not anything serious). Sounds like something Arcia would do. On most swings.

    Miracle this team is even above .500. They are absolutely garbage. With a more human Yelich and Hader not unhittable they are bottom of the barrel. Guys need to step up or the losses are going to pile up real quick.

    Kimbrel is a different maker? Really? He is going to pitch 1000 innings in the rotation for us?

    What are you doing Martinez?

    Braun: "Hold my beer"
  11. MrTPlush
    Starting his bat early has been happening (always has) since that thumb injury. I remember it being a major issue when that thumb injury was a new thing. I’d guess the thumb problem is still there (I recall at the time it was called a forever thing for him) and that is why he starts the bat earlier...still. If a smaller bat would fix the problem, I bet he would do it. But I am guessing he has tried in practice or over the offseason and didn’t like it.

    These days why do they even play a second round? Heck why even a semi final?
  13. MrTPlush
    Well, strike is a strike.
  14. MrTPlush
    Jesus Aguilar needs to stop playing, period...maybe against lefties...but never against righties. Just stop starting someone so useless.
  15. MrTPlush
    His only struggle is refusing to lay off of them. He should have a more compact swing and be a good singles/doubles hitter like prime Lucroy. Well he can’t and really never did. So his long bat helps him fight many off...and still does. No point in dreaming of him magically laying off of them now.
  16. MrTPlush
    He already mightily struggles with outside pitches...a shorter bat would have just made that even more brutal. Not sure if the positives from that change would really outweigh how much more he would get destroyed outside. Sure he could move up in the box to counter that...but he also gets burned inside horribly...so back to square one we go.

    Not trading Braun was a massive mistake I am still shocked to this day they did not do. One can defend him all they want...and the Braun fans will. That’s what people do when they like a player so much. I would have taken Puig and flipped him for whatever, but Puig has been WAY better in years that matter.... 2017-Present. Since then Puig’s WAR has been 4x higher! Not even in the same zip code of production. Khris Davis in LF would EASILY be more productive than Braun is for us. Once again not even close either. Domingo Santana would easily be comparable at worst and he is dirt cheap. Braun is owed millions! I was really hoping swing changes would help him out...but sure doesn’t look very promising. Maybe he can still turn it around this year and be above average offensively...but not too hopeful so far. BUT Travis Shaw should go back to his usual ways so I don’t see why Braun can’t just click one of these days.

    Ask to get the charge taken off...99.9% chance they will if you didn’t play on the thing. Why harm the poor server cause of some petty charge they can’t control? Just tip them on their service they did for you. If the food sucks or the company has some dumb charge chalk it up as a loss and never go back. Never will understand tipping the server for things they don’t control. If some other part of the experience is bad complain elsewhere or don’t go back. The tip isn’t for the kitchen or corporate.

    Ryan Braun hasn’t been a middle of the order bat since 2016. One doesn’t have to wonder any longer if he is a middle of the order bat right now. Then again at this point the rest of the line up is absolute garbage...so what does it matter.
  20. MrTPlush
    No, we just don’t have good pitchers. Rarely do we have good guys who actually can be counted on every season. It is almost always a veteran, who had a career year, and then time comes to be brought back down to earth. Loose was old and done, Peralta wasn’t good in the first place, Guerra was a fluke, Anderson had a career year and regressed, and Chacín isn’t particularly all that good himself. Not psychological at all. We just never have a true reliable top of the rotation guy.
  21. MrTPlush
    ...........wow.
  22. MrTPlush
    I agree. He looked...different than last year. I’d take last year Anderson at this point than multiple 10+ ERA guys in the rotation.
  23. MrTPlush
    Chase Anderson probably should just stay in the rotation...we need some stability. He may not pitch like he has tonight all the time and serve up taters...but he is solid and will keep us in most games he pitches. I am surprised he didn’t start there...but I can’t fault giving young guys a chance.

    Some info: Greg Gard visited with the Hauser brothers yesterday in Stevens Point. Sounds like Virginia isn’t really an option and if anyone outside of Wisconsin gets them it would likely be MSU. A bit more out there, but rumor has it Wisconsin has known they would leave Marquette for at least a month. It sounds like they will pick Wisconsin for location purposes essentially: Joey - Always wanted to play close to home and likely preferred to go to Wisconsin, but wanted to follow his brother. Sam - He has a girlfriend that goes Wisconsin Parents - Big influence on them and definitely don’t want them going out of state. They know their parents want to watch them play. Ego - They want to be the guys on the team and score. They can pretty much be the Wisconsin basketball team. And yes...Howard was the final straw. No way they were playing again with Howard from the reliable people I have talked to. They likely know they are going to Wisconsin, but are waiting to announce until they are off Marquette campus. That would be connecting predictive dots in my opinion.

    All I know is the Brewers definitely aren't going to base their promotion of Hiura on when there is a long homestand. People don't care nor know much about prospects when the Brewers are winning. Because it isn't much of a concern and it isn't shoved down our throats. It sure isn't going to get people excited. People only get excited for prospects when the team sucks and it is the only bright spot...and Hiura certainly isn't a prospect to get hyped enough to sell anything.
