    Whiffs are alarming lately. 45 Ks in the last 30 innings. Bauers 9 whiffs in his last 15 ABs. Mitchell 9 whiffs in his last 16 ABs and Ortiz 9 whiffs in his last 19 ABs. Runs are down along with the big jump in whiffs.

    I look at Drohan and Patrick as bullpen guys. Maybe openers if needed, but not full time starters. They both have added value to the pen this year. Gasser looks to be the #5 to start the sason. Hopefully Preister can come back and be servicable. Who knows about the head cases (Sproat and Harrison) but you can't count them out. Crow and possibly Hardin are in the mix. Woody is a very outside chance as a #4-5/Pen type. Milwaukee definitely has to get a veteran in a trade or FA for the #3 spot. The have plenty of pieces in the minors and I'd include Frelick, Ashby, Sproat, and Harrison to make deals for a SP. Obviously everything now depends on the new CBA.

    Getting concened about the huge number of Ks the Brewers are putting up going into the playoffs. 28 whiffs in their last 19 innings. For a team that doesn't have a lot of power, they need to score runs by putting the ball in play.

    Let some other team pay the high price for the disappointment. Brewers can find somebody else in the off season. Who, I don't know, but that may be a topic for discussion.

    Going into the playoffs I believe the Crew might keep 13 pitchers on the playoff roster because of the questionable starters which means some bullpen games. Right now I think Gasser is their best third option for the playoffs. Harrison is done for this year. Hopefully he can come back next year and be what he was at the beginning of this year. Drohan looks like a pretty good pen guy, who knows about Sproat, and Preister may come back in 2027 and be a viable option. Either way the Crew needs to look for a legit third starter for next year.

    When Murphy is looking for post season pitching things are getting jumbled. Sproat is out for sure. As horrible as Harrison has been, he is highly questionable. Senzatela is on the bubble. He's either good or awful. Can they trust him for the playoffs? Either way he's gone after this year. Drohan's last two outings are certainly not encouraging. Stallings has looked good, but he's a low leverage guy at best. Wilson, Anderson, and Koenig are possibilities but not locks.

    I don't see any way the Brewers offer Bauers a QO. He's been pretty much a journeyman 1B before this year with a career .223 BA/717 OPS. The most he's ever made was this year at $2.7M. This has been a career year for him, but he'll be 31 next year. I could see something like 3 for $24M - $27M.

    The kid just looks over matched too often at the plate. When you have absolutely no power you have to put the ball in play.
  9. wntrtxn21
    Just let Turang sit for a while! 8 whiffs in his last 13 ABs. Brewers 24 whiffs in the last 17 innings. OMG! One of the slowest runners in baseball just scored from 2B on a wild pitch! It looks like the Crew didn't want to come out after the rain delay. I'm hoping for a much better effort from everybody tomorrow.
  10. wntrtxn21
    Especially after throwing 19 pitches last night. This is entirely on Pancake.
  11. wntrtxn21
    22 whiffs in 16 innings so far in this series. What happened to putting the ball in play especially with RISP.
  12. wntrtxn21
    To be fair, an old lady with a limp running backwards would give those three a good race.
  13. wntrtxn21
    How many times this year has Yelich whiffed on that exact same pitch.
  14. wntrtxn21
    You're right. Vaughn has to be in the lineup more. Turang has to be hurt the way he's playing. 2 for 16 with 7 whiffs in the series. They need him healthy (or as close to it as possible) for the playoffs, so sit him for a while. Hopefully Bauers can get the bat untracked. He's getting on base with walks, but the hits and RBIs aren't there right now. I don't know what to think about Rollover. He looks good for a couple of games then goes right back to little weak grounders.
  15. wntrtxn21
    Turang with 9 whiffs in his last 21 ABs. Murphy doesn't have a lot of options for the upper part of the order, so that makes it that much tougher.
  16. wntrtxn21
    Henderson's pitch to pca was right where many, many lefties love it. Low and over the plate. A lot of LH hitters have that golf type uppercut. That ball pca hit didn't even look like it would clear the wall w/o that basket, a routine flyball in Amfam. All right Vaughn!! Got one back.
  17. wntrtxn21
    I'm wondering if the Brewers are getting concerned about Miz. His velocity is down in the last 3 games and so are the Ks. Tonite he didn't have anything that was working and it showed. They are concerned about Harrison's decreasing velocity, and Miz is showing signs of wear too.
  18. wntrtxn21
    I'm scared to death that this is a preview of the playoffs to come. 1st and 2nd nobody out and Churio does something stupid and Bauers then whiffs for the 6th time in his last 10 ABs. Gasser walks the lead off guy then falls apart. The defense is shakey too.
  19. wntrtxn21
    Turang has had an horrible September. .174 BA and OPS with 32 Ks.... They say he keeps losing weight which effects his play. Time for Pancake to bench him for a while (probably never going to happen) or at least move him way down in the order.
  20. wntrtxn21
    It's doubtful the Crew would re-sign May to be a #4-5, but if he continues to pitch like he has, it will be an easy decision to let him go at the end of the year. On another note, the Crew has to get Turang going! He hit only .183 in Sept. with 31 Ks. He often takes the first strike then continues to chase the high fastball and the inside slider with two strikes. He's lost 15 pts on his BA and OBP since Sept 1st. Despite Pancake's sometimes questionable pitching decisions, their lack of power, and occasional frustrating offense, I'd still rather be in their position than any other team in baseball.
  21. wntrtxn21
    You're right. His fastball is down 5-6mph and his cutter is in the low 90's and very hittable. I hope Pancake can see what's happening. Hate to use the pen this early again, but Miz doesn't have it tonite. The mound problems doesn't help.
  22. wntrtxn21
    Or they trade him for a much better package.
  23. wntrtxn21
    He swung at ball 4 and then whiffed on ball 5. Horrible AB with RISP.
  24. wntrtxn21
    IMO it's a way, way too weak package for Contreras. I'd rather keep him and get a good draft pick in 2028,
  25. wntrtxn21
    Sanchez might be the slowest man in MLB history. If not, he would give anybody a "trot" for their money in a "race" to 1B.
