Random stats Brett Phillips batting 220 in 60 games for AAA club Luis Ortiz has a 10.80 era for mlb team, 7.00 for AAA club

Shaw, please just go away.
-
Appreciate Yelich while you can. Have never had this type of production in our history. Glad he’s on our team.
-
Yet, here we are with this terrible pitching coach in 1st place. The best pitching coach in last place. Reminder that it’s a team game and a pitching coach doesn’t make or break a team. Tough crowd.

Jimmy Nelson update from On Deck
ThisIsMyCrew replied to anglotiger's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
He is a liability to a division leader. Never really showed much at aaa or now in his two starts that hes worthy of a starting gig. Results need to start mattering with the likes of him, Aguilar and Shaw. Can’t keep trotting them out there and not getting production. Not sure what the answer is, but my eyes tell me Jimmy ain’t it, at least right now. Bummer for him to put in so much time for these results. -
I get what you are saying but that was the go ahead run from that sac fly. Eh, Turbo is right. He’s had like 5 calls that were routine flies that he got pretty excited about. So the go ahead one wasn’t the lone call.
-
Nelson throwing 90-91 in this 5th inning.
-
Jimmy just isn’t the same pitcher at 92-93 mph. Missing the 96-97 he was hitting pre injury. Off speed looks sharp. Hope he can reinvent himself a bit.
-
Moose has a very underrated throwing arm.
-
Wow. What a 1st inning.

Keston Hiura called up, Shaw optioned
ThisIsMyCrew replied to jjgott's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
With the recent moves, struggles, etc with our players...which what are the odds that Shaw re establishes some value to be traded? Any? Just don’t see how we can keep Shaw, Moose, Aguilar, Thames, Arcia, Perez and Hiura in the infield. Maybe Aguilar is the odd man out in that scenario. -
Yelich glides around the bases!

Yelich 2.8 Gamel 1.1 Braun 0.3 Cain 1.6 Our outfielders WAR so far this year.

How about surplus value in the following years? The Brewers have to look at the future too. They don't have the cash nor the farm system to lose high end prospects for a 3 month rental. That is the following years. Now probably would be the time to go for it. The farm system sucks and most of the talent is in the low minors anyways. Might as well cash in for as much as you can and try to win in the next few years. I wouldn’t worry so much about the following years... Outfield is set. SS/2b should be set. Maybe a moose return. Rotation should have some quality options for a few years Bullpen has JJ, Hader, and hopefully knebal back to anchor them. Lots of quality players under control still. I’ll go out on a limb and say Stearns had an idea of that.

Keston Hiura called up, Shaw optioned
ThisIsMyCrew replied to jjgott's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Travis Shaw is set to rejoin the Brewers after this weekend’s Triple-A series against Omaha, Craig Counsell said. Corresponding move is obviously TBD, but there aren’t a lot of options in the position player group. Guy has done nothing to prove he’s ready to come back. Unless this is for Aguilar this is a joke of a move imo. -
I don't think we definitely know that to be true. I do believe we were definitely in on Machado last summer. Is Hiura going in a rental, no way, but beyond that, I don't think Stearns has shown any aversion to rentals. Also I think an overlooked value in rentals is a chance to sell a player on extending their stay in Milwaukee if all other options are equal. We've seen that with Moose and Gio. I doubt either are Brewers now if we hadn't rented them. Your last point is very profound and appears to be true. My question is does Milwaukee have a bad rep among players until they actually play there? And Why? I’m not sure it has much to do with a bad rap as it does 1) Brewers being terrible for a long time 2) location is not on the coasts/big market I think winning cures a lot of the recruitment gaps we’ve had in the past. Just my opinion that those are two of the gaps we’ve had as an organization.

Nationals continue to struggle. Despite there high payroll they are 9 games below .500 and how some very expensive assets. I’m going to assume the Brewers will be out on Scherzer/Strasburg based on the obscene numbers they are still owed. And filtering the needs of the team. Two names pop up as reasonable options that probably won’t come cheap. Anthony Rendon: Thought here is you get an all star level player for half a year. He’s owed $19 mil in his walk year, which obviously would be prorated. He’s currently batting .320 with an obp of 424. Ops of 1.079. Between him and moose could one play 1st and solve that issue? Sean Doolittle: He’s been talked about a few times on this board and is having a relatively solid season. He’s owed $6 mil this year and $6 TEAM option for 2020 (this becomes mutual if he finishes 100 games combined in 2018 and 2019). Currently sitting with a 3.52 era / 1.39 whip / 11 k/9 ratio. Would be nice to have another lefty in the pen not named Claudio. Either of these two realistic gets? Do the fix our needs? What would it take to get them?

Keston Hiura called up, Shaw optioned
ThisIsMyCrew replied to jjgott's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
For those of you who love war....Hiura in 13 games has a 0.2 war. Shaw in 40 games had a -0.7. Now that Hiura is up and has shown at least some flashes of high quality at bats. I don’t see him not being our 2nd baseman the rest of the year. Moose makes $7mil+$1buyout and has played well. No room for Shaw other than 1st but at this point it’s a matter of him/Aguilar/Thames....all of them are making John Jaha look like a hall of famer. -
Guy has an era close to 6. Come on...
-
Correct. Fourth best record in NL means we are “garbage”.
-
Pitcher throws 5 straight balls and Braun strikes out. Sad.
-
That 3-2 pitch from JJ to Acuna is unhittable. Wowza
-
I don’t think I’d use Barnes and High Leverage in the same sentence...unless if it’s for he should never be in them.
-
Poor footwork by Aguilar costs us a base runner. Use the right foot to stretch guy.
-
He does have two options. And he was quoted as being open to “anything.”
