    crappy infielders and crappy pitchers are the new market inequality. Or at least that seems what the Brewers' decisions suggest.
  2. Robocaller
    And I feel bad about losing Feliciano, though I don't think he'd really be given a chance, except as a callup after an injury.
  3. Robocaller
    Doesn't hit very well. Doesn't field terribly well. Brewerfans, this is the reason Turang will be in AAA on O.D. He's an upside guy like Toro; they could have a breakout or they could be a AAAA guy for the rest of their career. I'm sure he's overjoyed to play for his (nearly) hometown team. Reasonably strong negative splits in ML, so doesn't help vs. LHP.
  4. Robocaller
    Turner would be great, but I don't think we'll sign him. I didn't think we'd acquire William Contreras either.
  5. Robocaller
    If 100 is average, 104 is above average, is it not? I didn't say he was well above average. And he can play every OF position just fine. There's a big difference in my mind between a 4th and a 5th OF. The 4th OF will play a lot. the 5th OF might be in AAA. He's an ideal placeholder until Wiemer can be promoted. I was all for trading him before Renfroe got traded. Now, we have to keep him (unless another RHH OF is acquired).

    ah, so it's not SO rates, it's OBP. There are plenty of high SO pitchers that give up high OBP. Not giving up a SB, once a player is on base, is determined (from the pitcher's standpoint) by how well the pitcher can hold the runner on (LHP tend to be better), how many pitches per PA, and how quickly the pitcher works.
  7. Robocaller
    He's a better-than-average hitter and a better-than-average fielder. He has value, particularly after trading Ruiz, who is a RH bat that could have been on the roster on O.D.
  8. Robocaller
    yeah, maybe when someone is nicked up but not put on the DL. And we'll probably always have a C on the taxi squad, if that's still a thing.
  9. Robocaller
    why would that lessen SB? High K means they tend to go deeper in the count, so more pitches to time the steal.
  10. Robocaller
    some good stuff there. There's a mistake in the first sentence. We acquired William Contreras, not Willson.
  11. Robocaller
    I'd assert that there's no team that would rather have Willson Contreras on his contract than William Contreras on his contract. Probably not even the Cardinals.
  12. Robocaller
    I went to an A's site where a guy was denigrating Ruiz's batted ball stats. Bunts kinda tank batted ball stats, and what, Ruiz did it more than once a week?
  13. Robocaller
    They might be. Billy isn't running them anymore.
  14. Robocaller
    After the Contreras trade, we should all be giddy, right? Share your positivity. Things are going great for the Brewers!

    Is Chirinos a legitimate prospect? He's not very big for a 1B.
  16. Robocaller
    If you're an idiot and don't consider context, like Law, and base your decisions on batted ball stats, you'll always undervalue Ruiz, whose batted ball stats are skewed because he bunts regularly.
  17. Robocaller
    Second Best Post!
  18. Robocaller
    click on that. the responses are priceless.
  19. Robocaller
    I'd guess that almost every team would rather have our Contreras on his contract than the other Contreras on his contract. Maybe even the Cardinals.
  20. Robocaller
    Yeager only has to improve his control to be a ML pitcher. Like a hundred other guys, but maybe he's one of the ones to do it.
  21. Robocaller
    Payamps looks like he should be on the 26 man roster O.D. and he won't be a FA until 2027. and Yeager has a chance to have a ML career as a reliever as well.
  22. Robocaller
    What is astounding to me is that Matt Arnold had the balls to say, "You know, you guys need to sweeten the deal a little bit for me. Contreras isn't enough."
  23. Robocaller
    Unless Contreras improves defensively, he becomes a DH/C, playing in the field when Quero is resting.
  24. Robocaller
    I don't think people understand what BTV is doing. It doesn't predict what a player might get traded for, it estimates what similar players have been traded for. Different teams obviously value different players differently. If you're a good trader (and Arnold seems to be a god among GMs right now), you identify teams that value your players more than you value them. But if Ruiz is all we're giving up, Oakland is valuing Ruiz as high as Adames. Which is insane. BTW, BTV has increased the value of Woodruff, which many of you had been complaining about.
  25. Robocaller
    This a great get for the brewers, particularly if our contribution is mainly Ruiz (they really needed to trade him, Mitchell or Frelick, with Ruiz being the most desirable to trade). Contreras has been a LHP-destroyer, so that helps a ton. Eager to see what else we lose.
