    So Baez has hit more homers in his first 3 MLB at bats then the total number of HRs of the entire Brewer team in their last 5 games total.

    Why Pancake keeps Contreras in the lineup is a mystery. He's 0 for his last 19 ABs and 5 for his last 44 ABs. He needs serious bench time to get his head right. Mitchell goes down looking once again. You would think the coaching staff could tell him to be more aggressive with two strikes. Churio too whiffs again. 5 whiffs out of 9 outs. Two whiffs with RISP. That's getting all too familiar lately.

    I'm not as sure about the hitting coaching. Milwaukee just doesn't have the talent at too many positions to be any kind of threat for the W.S... Yelich is washed up and they are stuck with him for the next two years. Mitchell is 7 for his last 56 and whiffing about 1/3 of the time. He's been hurt so much nobody knew if he could hit or not. The talent as a hitter just doesn't seem to be there. Hamilton is a once or twice a week bench guy who is playing far too much because Murphy had nobody else. Ortiz is hitting better than his career stats, but nobody is going to mistake him for a natural good hitter. Lara is a young guy who is over matched quite often. He really belongs in the minors at age 21. No amount of coaching can make up for the lack of talent. Contreras is a different story. However I don't know if at this point in his career he's going to change much.

    The long ball has been killing the Crew. Their top 3 pitchers (Miz - Harrison - Henderson) have now allowed 7 bombs in less than 18 innings in their last collective starts. Right now just about everything is going wrong.
  5. wntrtxn21
    That's 6 dingers given up by the top 3 Brewer pitchers in only 16+ IPs. With the pathetic lineup they have, it's very tough to win.
  6. wntrtxn21
    Another bomb given up by Brewer pitching. When are they going to realize that you can't throw a pitch down the middle and expect good results? Harrison just sucks tonite, at a time where the Brewers really needed him. The lineup would struggle to be competitive in AAA. Still time if they can somehow begin to hit.
  7. wntrtxn21
    Turang's 10th whiff in his last 24 ABs. Brewers desperately need his bat. Oh crap, Churio had it stolen and slid off the bag. Looks like the Crew can run on S.D. tonight.
  8. wntrtxn21
    Right now a little concerned about Henderson. That's 3 dingers in his last 7+ IPs. Good news is they are all single shots.
  9. wntrtxn21
    This is all predicated on there actually being a season in 2027. If they can re-sign Bauers for something like 3/$27M-$30M I'd do that deal. I think Vaughn is going to be too expensive for a backup if they get Bauers. In a major deal, trade Contreras and Frelick/Mitchell looking for a power hitting RF or 3B. Ashby - Hall - Koenig - Anderson - Gasser - Sproat - Crow could go in the right deals. Hamilton - Jett to sweeten some major deal. See how May performs and look at re-signing him for 2-3 years if he does well. Miz-Harrison-Henderson-May (maybe) - Priester looks like a mighty good rotation! Milwaukee has the right stuff to make a couple of major deals in the off season and be a powerhouse once again in 2027.

    Murphy almost had to run for Sanchez there. Knowing his B pen was going to pitch in the 10th he had to go for the win. With Bae and Bunty coming up it's most likely going to be two easy outs. He had to hope Turang wouldn't choke and whiff. It's going to be interesting who hits when the pitcher's spot is up.
  11. wntrtxn21
    You're right. If they lose this game it's squarely on Pancake. Drohan was finished last inning and letting him go out for the 5th was just stupid.
  12. wntrtxn21
    What 's up with Turang? He's whiffed in 7 of his last 14 ABs.
  13. wntrtxn21
    No way in heck!! Henderson has been doing a great job and zero chance they trade Made in the division.
  14. wntrtxn21
    Look on the birght side, at least he didn't rollover into a DP! It's time for Pancake to admit Yelich isn't what's best for the team right now and sit him.
  15. wntrtxn21
    I don't think we'll ever know what bats were actually available for the right price. Certainly on the surface you are right that nobody who would have made a difference was out there. In the off season the only position players I would not part with are: Turang (yes I know he looked horrible and whiffed twice in clutch situations), Pratt (looked horrible with two whiffs also), Churio (not doing well lately, but very young), and Bauers (if they can re-sign him reasonably). It looks to me like Contreras is playing himself into a trade. They might keep Sanchez at a friendly contract IF Contreras is shipped out. I don't think they'll keep Vaughn at an estimated $9.5-10M. Mitchell has gone cold and Frelick never heated up. Both of them and Lara would be tradable for the right deals. Hamilton and Ortiz if anybody wanted them (I'd probably keep one for a utility guy). The Crew is stuck with the biggest albatross, Rollover (Yelich) and his contract for two more years. Who knows what 2027 will bring or if there is even going to be any baseball.
  16. wntrtxn21
    The classic million dollar arm, 10 cent brain. Sproat needs to see the minors for the rest of the year to learn how to pitch.
  17. wntrtxn21
    I don't think anybody realistically believes the Crew has any shot at the W.S. with this offense. I'm happy Arnold didn't waste any good prospects chasing a rental in Skubal. Getting beat 2-0 or 8-2 doesn't matter, It's still a loss. Keep the prospects and hope some of them turn out to be helpful. With 2027 looking to be all but lost, no sense in losing good prospects for rentals. The Dodgers getting Skubal I believe, forces MLB to address the monstrous disparity that clouds baseball.
  18. wntrtxn21
    Imagine that, Rollover rolls over on yet another one. Many have questioned why Yelich is batting so high in the order, I am one of those. I know Murphy won't ever sit Yelich for a long stretch, so it's just venting by me.
  19. wntrtxn21
    None of the three is an improvement over what the Crew already has. Do nothing trades are a waste of time.
  20. wntrtxn21
    Rollover does what he does best, dinky ground ball (or whiff).
  21. wntrtxn21
    There is no need for the Brewers to keep a 5th OF if the keep Vaughn. With Bauers ability to play OF and Yelich the emergency OF, they don't have room for a 5th full time OF. Vaughn, Sanchez, Hamilton, and the 4th OF make up the 4 man bench.
  22. wntrtxn21
    Big shoutout to Yoho (with some help from Mitchell) for a great job in the 10th. The entire staff looked very good tonight holding a good Marlin team to one run.
  23. wntrtxn21
    Whew!!! After the untimely chokes by Rollover, Churio, Turang, and Bauers, Mitchell comes up HUGE!! Then the icing on the cake, the Twins do the Crew a big favor and beat the cubs. Hopfully this win will get the Crew hitters out of their funk and lead to big winning streak.
  24. wntrtxn21
    Not a Springs fan. In his last 5 starts covering 23 innings he has given up 27 earned runs and 28 hits. His fip is 6.04...I'd hope the Crew looks for someone a lot better.
  25. wntrtxn21
    Not much of a pickup, but Shewmake is better than playing Jones. He goes to Nashville (not sure about options or if they have to waiver him) when Hamilton is ready. Woody goes on the 60 day IL. He's done for the year and this may be it for his career. You have to feel bad for Big Woo.
