  1. Wichrowski seems to have that velo back up again consistently. He is pretty nasty especially tunneling that plus slider off the fastball.
  2. Also the BS agenda of pushing out every small market star every chance they can get (Giannis) has made me outright quit watching all together (unless there is MNF)
  3. I still think Chourio overall is still a bit too aggressive in his approach. He is swinging too much early in the count and out of the zone as a result. However, it is good to see him striking the ball with more authority consistently.
  4. Wichrowski is a little rich for my blood considering the salary he has this year and he would be just a half season rental. Especially with his velo bump and starting to miss a lot more bats at AA.
  5. I am gonna ask a really dumb question. How do you even get started with investing? Do you go through a financial planner? I just really need some direction in order to start planning for retirement. I am almost 30 and really only just have a decent HY savings account.
  6. I am gonna be pretty vulnerable on this post. I am 29 years old and have never felt so stuck career wise. I am busting my rear end now more than ever with little to show for it. I am a (now) remote insurance broker. A lot of serious changes have happened in the past two months. Our small start up has merged with another company and just like that my commission basically halved. I am a top performer and I am starting to just plateau. I went from hitting my yearly financial goals to only making 60% of it. Now it is projected for worse. It is the offseason so to speak and I am an independent contractor since the start of January. It is really feast or famine in this format. They are now including bs deductions to our pay as well for lacking proficient client retention. Even though we have a team for this and I have followed their protocols to a T. I just am so disheartened and really don't know where to turn next. Any type of guidance would be greatly appreciated. I have my degree in biology, so I have been working at getting my foot in the door for medical device sales but after a couple phone interviews it is the classic ghosting. I am willing to change my career field entirely but I think sales is where I thrive. I have a good knack for connecting with people and I really enjoy doing so. Some nights go by and I feel like I am failing my 1 year old and wife (who is a K teacher) even though I am absolutely busting my rear end.
  7. I like to think of myself pretty informed on the player dev side of things, but this interview was phenomenal and I learned so much more. Brenton sounds like a huge reason for our success in the minors and I am excited to see his rocket like trajectory in the org.
  8. Hey Spencer what are we thinking about Braylon Payne? You think the injuries are affecting him or threw off his rhythm. Was the start to the season a bit fluky? Down to a 109 wRC+ now. The tools are definitely there.
  9. Exactly. He is one to always be locked in his takes and never usually wavers even with new information. Probably an ego thing, but to be the best evaluator possible you'd think you'd be far more fluid as new info and data comes in. Baseball is a sport where the point the player begins can be vastly different to where they end. Adjustments exist and can change a player's entire trajectory. Has happened all throughout MLB history. You would think he would know this.
  10. Keith law… that name just gives me, as the girls say now, “the ick”. Always one to go against the consensus and it rarely turns out for him. Contrarian takes that are often loud and wrong. He’s been consistently one of the most inaccurate evaluators in recent memory and there’s always such a negative undertone. That blurb directly contrasts with Josh Norris’ opinion on Made (someone that knows ball) Hate that I even gave it a click.
  11. Oppo Taco for Wilken! That is number 12 on the season so far! The wife knows best!
  12. Made with a hard hit ground ball but turns into a 4-3 putout. He is getting his first taste of adversity at the pro level. Still walking at a good clip at least though, so lets see how the young man responds!
  13. Do we know when Game 2 of the mudcats game starts? Didn't see it on MiLB.com
  14. Hell yeah Sal that's as uncomfortable AB as it gets for a lefty. Awesome piece of situational hitting.
  15. When you do become a parent (if you're a good one) you have constant anxiety about their safety lol. A proper car seat is a bare minimum. I drove myself nuts looking at all the statistics and stuff that could go wrong with my 1 year old and then you realize the stats are skewed by stupid people. There are a LOT of stupid people and stupid parents. Gave me a lot of peace as a dad.
  16. Wish we could have at least cleared the pitcher's spot in the lineup. Errr I mean Ortiz's spot in the lineup.
  17. Given the nature of Ashby's original injury the fact he is up to the velo he's currently at is pretty remarkable. I think Hall has way higher expectations. Also due to the fact Ortiz has been a dud.
  18. Thanks for nothing Yeli lol, Yelich is up to a 7 wRC+ against lefties. Richest contract in Brewers history is nothing more than a platoon hitter now. Sad
  19. I think he'd command more than the Soto deal due to extreme cost control of a generational arm. However, I don't understand why any team would do that. Especially the brewers. He only performs once every 5 games at the end of the day. If the Pirates have no inclination to contend or add payroll. I don't see the point in holding him hostage so trade him! (Preferably out of the NL Central to the AL lol)
  20. With how much control he still has I completely disagree. He will be the hottest name possibly available on the pitching side of things at the deadline.
  21. I love hearing it. Think a Luis Castillo prospect package should be equal value. With our lower levels and our pitching depth currently we could ignite the start of a powerhouse. Adding two top 100 guys to one of the best farms in ball is enticing! I love Freddy but I am not sure his value will be any higher.
  22. Not one top 100 prospect. Yeah that's not accurate lol. We already have been fleeced once this year no thanks.
