Amazing. Amazing. That right there? Absolutely indicative of how far Nova has come in a very short period of time.Said it outing 1: has the stuff just needs to harness it. Well, shiver me timbers, he may be finding something within himself in real time. -
I know. I know. In their last season in Zebulon? I'm straying. I want playoffs!😅
-
Absolutely agreed. My contention remains: just give the clean inning to Nova. He has been quite good in Close Out scenarios of late. His stuff is better. It is legit close out material. I know he's likely hoping to Save him but Reyes very obviously didn't have much of anything today and now Nova is in and you risk losing the game. It's a silly sequence of events imho.
-
Ok. Praying for a Nova miracle. He's been very good lately but this is an unfair ask.
-
AND his answer is give a bases loaded mess to Nova who has only proven to find any success with his control in clean innings. IF this is your plan, just give him the 7th off the bat! So frustrating.😅
-
I legit don't understand Stanley. He makes fascinating decisions with the pitching staff on the regular. You know Reyes is prone to walking guys. You saw he wasn't sharp. SO, leave him in to walk in two and then give his mess to another late-to-warm-up arm with zero outs? It is just silly.
-
I can't watch. Turning it off. 😅 He is prone to this exact type of outing. I knew he'd be trot right back out there too. Ugh. Single, single, four pitch walk.
-
Oh man Reyes is going to make this interesting isn't he? Pain.
-
Welp, Handelfry tried to take 3B on a follow-up single by Eric and was thrown out. Ouch. Anderson flies out to end the inning. Pain.
-
Di Turi with two more K in game 1 here. 0-for-2. Let's hope he or Bitonti can bring home Handelfry (line drive single to CF). Man, Di Turi's late slump has me in pain. He is such a nice player but this ongoing woe is eerily reminiscent of last summer's late fade. If the Mudcats want to get to the post-season and find success they'll need Di Turi to rediscover his stroke.
-
He falls behind 2-1 to the next batter but luckily gets the sharp line out to CF. Reyes has now walked 30 batters in 36 1/3 IP on his season. When you are holding opponents to a 0.220 BAA but are sporting a 1.61 WHIP this just might be the reason.
-
Reyes just walked his second batter of his inning on four pitches. Runners on 1st and 2nd. Two outs. 2-0 Muddies lead.
-
Yup. Earlier in the season we only got an inning here and there. He has been trending in this direction most of the summer. Today's outing, tho, we haven't seen the heater that good for an entire outing. Really awesome to witness.
-
Incredible one-hit 5-inning outing with 6K. He gets the K swinging to likely end his work at 68 pitches. I don't believe the Brewers have allowed Torres to eclipse 75 pitches in any outing in 2025? Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. They pulled him at 67 pitches his last time out - a one run 5.0 IP affair. Torres is absolutely trending up. You love to see it. He's given up plenty of hits in 2025, but as @wiguy94 states above, the heater was moving different today. Only one late knock conceded (a single) and more importantly no free passes, no HB, and no WP. 48 strikes of 68 thrown is absurdly good at any level when the surrounding results look like this.
-
I certainly hope so.
-
I want to be clear: I'm not referring to anything on our BF forums. I routinely see such comments on twitter - saw them repeatedly in the early part of this season and all this past off-season. - and I admit that completely flavors my thinking. Now, I don't post or comment on twitter I just use it for access to post links for my ML reports. But when I see the hive mind and it includes complaints from bigger accounts from other Wisco teams - Frank Madden does it; Aaron Nagler most definitely does it; Andy Herman does it etc.. Now, twitter is very much a virtual reality. And I am alcoved in my farm valley so certainly don't have a pulse on the greater state of Wisconsin any longer. BUT, I am pretty sure Spencer sees this negativity routinely taking questions for the BF pod. We've joked about it before, at least and I'm not saying he thinks what I think here. From my vantage point, the only thing unique about the present state of things, and holy heck is it unique, quelling this dialogue is the Brewers are playing the best baseball in all the MLB. Anywho, I don't really want to belabor this any longer. Big game today. That's all that matters. I apologize for side tracking the thread. Let's hope Tobes has the goods..
-
Well I don't equate complaining in game threads to anything, really. We all get emotional and over-reactive in games. I know I do. I am more talking expressly to the ongoing tired narrative literally every off-season and every Trade Deadline. We are abundantly obviously in the Golden Era of Brewers baseball and the vast majority of fans act like petulant children because the Brewers don't spend like the a different Market en lieu of embracing and appreciating what we very much do have with this Brewers organization: a group of really really awesome people. Murphy has said this on numerous occasions. We see it in real time. THAT deserves to be celebrated - and consistently so while we have it. Everything else is just noise. Anyhow, this is merely my opinion, of course. But, I was amazed after watching him in this interview I legitimately found myself mentally preparing for the off-season of negativity!😅
-
Weird. Yeah, none of those work for my browser. Lol. No worries. I trust what my eyes saw regardless.😅
-
Pat telling it like it is. So refreshing to have a man so comfortable in his own skin. He is honest and candid and has a sense of humor to help deliver many of the messages. And, given this, I am already preparing for another off season - regardless of how well or disappointing this current season winds up - of fans unrealistically expecting something different and then putting the age old 'Attanasio is Cheap. He steals sand." complaint sector on 'Repeat and Rinse' Cycle. As predictable as the sun rising and setting. Instead of marveling at how incredibly gifted and talented this current group of people within the organization are, the vast majority of fans will complain they don't have the eye candy offered by bigger market deeper pocket teams. We saw it yet again at the Trade Deadline. It legitimately never ceases to amaze me how much people love to complain.
-
That 'No Fans in Stadium' link goes to a MSN Feed of videos for me. Is it trying to go to an article?
-
I want to again remind everyone, Tobias last pitched over 50 pitches on July 4th. I imagine the Brewers are hoping he can get through the Mets line up twice as a best case scenario. Hopefully, Tobias shuts me out with a 7.0 IP vintage throwback 2024 masterpiece.

Misc. Minor League Alumni News & Notes - 2025 Version
Joseph Zarr replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
Old Friend and Super Utility vet, Mike Brosseau, was released by the Padres: -
Before he was a baseball player, he was a man... Or something something.
-
Yeah, realistically speaking, they probably know they are going to have to have three inning eaters ready for the meat of the game..
-
I do think the Brewers are likely preparing for a piggy back scenario tomorrow, regardless. Tobes hasn't thrown any type of meaningful innings in any game since July 4th. He only lasted 1 1/3 IP and 48 pitches his last time out on August 1st. My guess would be they are hoping to get 3 IP and anything else is pure gravy. Hope to get through the line up 2x?
