  1. He was #7 in AA, but #19 in AAA and in college. So I would venture it would be #7 which has been vacated by Sogard.
  2. Yelich was drafted as a 1B/OF, so it's not entirely out of the realm to see him get 1B reps towards the end of his deal. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/423301-scouting-florida-marlins-2010-first-round-draft-pick-christian-yelich
  3. Pretty cut and dry quote from Counsell here Craig Counsell: "Lorenzo is our center fielder."
  4. I find myself Wondering what the distance was on that outlier home run to deep right center field. Because that must have been a monster shot It was in Colorado. 478 feet (roughly 1 minute mark) This is 2019 overlayed with Miller Park.
  5. Brewers sign Jackie Bradley Jr. to 2 year $24 million deal. Player option for year two. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/03/brewers-sign-jackie-bradley-jr.html

  7. My guess if Wong gets injured is that Urias would move to second with Arcia at SS. Urias came up as a second baseman, so he'd probably be the long-term solution. Otherwise, I'd think that Robertson or Arcia should be able to fill in there for a day here-and-there. I had not thought of this. You are 100% right. Urias still might be the long-term 2B if Wong leaves after his contract is up after 2022 or 2023 (if the team option is exercised). Even if it is after 2023, Urias will still only be heading into his age 27(!) season in 2024. That kid is young. They're going to give Urias every opportunity to take and keep the SS job. I believe even if Wong gets hurt, they'll stick with Urias and SS and put Arcia/Robertson there.

  9. That would be correct.
  10. Wong and Yelich make their Spring debuts. Arcia starting at 3B.
  11. Sorry at work, what does he say? San Diego is his favorite non-Milwaukee stadium to play in, and he likes the city. Which isn't surprising ... San Diego is awesome. But him saying it really doesn't mean anything. He can't pick where he gets dealt to. Trevor Bauer also said he loved MKE and Miller Pa... American Family Field in his vlog. It's just a nice thing to say.
  12. Some interesting notes in Will Sammon's article in The Athletic https://theathletic.com/2412774/2021/02/26/what-weve-learned-in-spring-about-the-brewers-third-base-and-shortstop-plans/ It appears Arcia will be working on making himself more defensively versatile, including more reps in CF. Arcia told The Athletic that he is preparing to be used at third base, shortstop and center field. “I’m ready,” Arcia said. “I’m ready for everything they ask. I’ll play wherever they want. I practice every day, taking groundballs at third base. I think it’s more mental. And I feel really good about it.” Daniel Robertson is leading the group of super-utility players on the 40-man to make the team out of spring The Brewers also have Mark Mathias and Tim Lopes on the 40-man roster as multi-positional players, but Counsell referred to Robertson as “probably at the top of the list.”
  13. JBJ has an OPS+ of 105 against RHP and 88 against LHP. Would be a 4th OF who could get plenty of time spelling Cain and Garcia against righties?
  14. According to Robert Murray, Brewers are "in the mix" for Jackie Bradley Jr.
  15. Like I said earlier, I'm a sucker for redemption archs, but only to a point. Oof! I'd be fine if we stayed away from him. He was suspended for violating the MLB's Domestic Violence policy. https://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/mlb-suspends-blue-jays-reliever-roberto-osuna-75-games/
  16. It's baseball. Your best hitter is in the 2-hole. That's pretty much the way every team does it. I'm sure there is some science and reasoning behind it. https://www.sportsbettingdime.com/guides/strategy/batting-order-sabermetrics/ 3 hole is the 4th best hitter in the lineup.
  17. VS RHP If Shaw makes the team as the starter at 3B Wong Yelich Cain Hiura Garcia Shaw Narvarez Urias VS LHP Cain Yelich Hiura Garcia Wong Pina Urias Arcia I don't think Wong is going to be sitting very much, even against LHPs. Yelich is going to be the two-hitter. That's where the best player is put in a modern-day lineup and will get him the most AB's with runners on.
  18. I'll probably be in the minority here, but I switched from ATT internet and YTTV to Charter when I moved in January and am glad I did. The cost of having internet and a YTTV subscription and ATT internet is virtually the same as it for the Charter Internet and TV package. We use Apple TV's to stream the Charter app to watch all our channels, but definitely utilize the Fox Sports app when watching Bucks or Brewers. I probably gave up some flexibility with just being able to change streaming services whenever I wanted, but the pricing was very competitive. YTTV keeps going up in price while also losing channels or adding unnecessary ones. At least with Charter, I have all the channels I would want.
  19. I wouldn't think Villar would have anything to do with Justin Turner. Kris Bryant sure would though. For some reason, I thought he had way more games at 3B but he'll probably be used as SS and 2B depth. I was wrong.
  20. Another potential suitor for Turner, the Mets, are re-kindling talks with the Cubs about Kris Bryant according to Andy Martino of SNY And they did just sign Villar, so is it possible that they have moved on and now it's between the Brewers and Dodgers?
  21. He was going into his age 34 season according to Spotrac. 3 years for $32 million with $6 million deferred.
  22. He still shows great Statcast numbers on baseballsavant, has a career .369 OBP and doesn't strike out all that much. With the DH more than likely coming to the NL in 2022, it would be easier to stomach a longer-term deal for him.
  23. They just signed Jonathan Villar. Hopefully, that will take care of that Also, this is my first post, hello everyone!
