Up and outside not a good place to get a strike call.

More like Meow.

Thames is fragile (physically and mentally). Aguilar is also hitting well this year. There aren’t days off for rest coming up. Mostly-there’s a LHP for MIA

It is 85 and should be even higher with the walk he should've earned yesterday. You are correct since his day yesterday helped it. But 85 is still plenty below average Is there anyone in an entire system or roster that you could honestly look someone in the eyes and say they can do better? No...not even close. So this conversation is pretty pointless. He is by far the best option we have on this roster. His worst is probably better than Sogard/Perez and has way more potential to be better. We don't freak out about how other players are starting off slow...Villar could easily warm up with the weather. He has way more power than he has shown so far. Not every player is going to be above average...even average. Villar hasn't even been our worst positional player so far. An 85+ OPS is not that bad. With his defensive downside that probably just make him a guy. That isn't a big deal if the guys who are suppose to be above average with the bat are actually doing so.

Wow Jonathan Villar is playing well and this thread just keeps kicking. No way Villar shouldn’t be the starter.

Difference is the baseball season currently ends for any team not making sectionals before school is out. If you play in sectionals it’s one week of the summer where you have baseball. The whole snow thing is so vastly overblown. This is one year that is a major problem. People act like this happens every year, not even close. Only games ever canceled at the start of the season for me we’re non conference games. In four years there was never a major problem with snow and I lived near Eau Claire...pretty far north. Where are all these summer baseball teams? Are they mostly located way up north? That is the only area I can imagine snow being a problem on a constant basis when it comes to games.

I get people hate Drake, but this comment doesn't even make sense. Not only are you making a huge assumption whoever could have been used instead was going to give up zero runs, but you are actually trying to say that pitcher was going to take a run off the board! I don't think that is allowed.

Black Rectangle Thing on the Upper Deck Facade
MrTPlush replied to Samurai Bucky's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Is this thing we are referring to on the loge level? -
I never see complaining for a machine when we get a call. Haha
-
Santana absolutely mashed last year and has been an above average hitter in over 1000 PAs...why are we looking to send him to a bench focused role? Give the guy some time. He struggled in April last year (not this bad).
-
Hey Eric what do you want for dinner?: “Reds”
-
This thread is a classic, “This would suck for me, so I don’t like it and it doesn’t make sense.” Big picture everyone....big picture. We will live in a frozen wasteland that makes HS baseball a disaster. It’s just when you would like that disaster to happen. Spring ball makes way more sense as a whole vs. summer baseball.
-
Miller Park does not need A/C. That kind of thing is incredibly expensive. Nowhere near the handful of games where you wish you had it. I’ve been to so many games and never once complained. Whether that heat or the sticky feeling when it is closed due to rain.
-
Yah with a starter they may be totally worthless. Score zero runs? Worthless. Offense scores 10? Worthless. Could have had anyone pitch that day. When Hader pitches now you know it is almost always a huge moment.
-
That was honestly the biggest consistent strike zone I have seen in as long as I can remember. I mean I guess it went both ways...but my oh my.
-
This umpire is going to get his report card after this game and schedule an appointment with his eye doctor.
-
What the....that second strike on Sogard.
-
That strike three call on Anderson was garbage. That wasn’t close and didn’t look close. Just because he is a pitcher doesn’t mean his zone should be 2x bigger. Anderson was working in the AB.
-
To be honest Villar's start hasn't been nearly as positive as people think. The .302 average is about all there is and its very hollow. The OBP matches the .302 BA because he's yet to draw a single walk this season and his power up until tonight has been almost non-existent. The OPS coming into tonight was actually lower than last season even with a .406 BABIP which probably isn't sustainable so he's even been a bit lucky. The K rate is slightly down but still over 25%. Don't get me wrong, I thought the same until recently and I think he should be the guy at 2nd and have a long leash, I'm just saying when you look past his batting average his start actually hasn't been very good. He has earned a pretty high BABIP from the hits he has gotten. His speed has earned it. No, it is not sustainable, but neither is not walking or having zero power. That being said I just called it positive. I think his approach has been pretty good. It’s not like he isn’t drawing walks because he is flailing away up there. He has been acceptable on defense and fine running the bases.

Jonathan Villar’s positive start had me wondering how Neil Walker has done so far: .188 AVG .209 SLG% .472 OPS
-
Give him a discount and the other three season seat holders will demand discounts too!!!
-
Flat out stupid, honestly. Maldonado was a proven good back-up for us. Must have wanted to save money.
-
Wait...so you are telling me people actually read those emails?
-
Just because people say Braun is bad at defense doesn’t mean he has to be bad in every single aspect. Ryan Braun is really good playing balls off the wall or richocets in the corner. It’s really impressive and even his throws are pretty strong/accurate. His reaction time and routes...pretty blah. That is what drags him down on defense.

Babe Ruth only won 1 MVP....what.
