    wow, small sample size alert.
  2. Robocaller
    good for him to get his chance. did we get anything in return?
  3. Robocaller
    Bad end to his Brewers' career, if this is the end.
  4. Robocaller
    I didn't think much of his signing at the time, but I wonder if we might have something. His development was hindered by the Covid year, and he was rushed to the majors. Can he be a versatile defender with an OPS closer to .800 than .700?
  5. Robocaller
    Principally, I don't make hasty decisions based on small samples.

    I'm talking about the value as a calculated number, not the real, though obviously subjective value. Though if they don't demote Wiemer for at least 2 weeks sometime this season, the management has done malpractice.
  7. Robocaller
    Wiemer's calculated value is largely due to getting 3 assists already. He's a negative offensively. I'd suggest the defensive value is small-sample-related: teams will learn not to test his arm.

    Before the season, If you said the Brewers would be 8 1/2 ahead of the Cardinals on May 1, I'd have assumed that Arenado and Goldschmidt were both injured for most of the season. If you had said the Pirates would be 1 1/2 games ahead of the Brewers on May 1, I'd have assumed that at least two of Adames, Woodruff, Burnes and Peralta missed a large amount of time and our rookies had been unplayable. Weird things happening.

    His stats can't be that ugly if he has a 1.42 ERA.
  10. Robocaller
    Am I a bad person for wishing we could demote him to the minors before going on the IL so he doesn't burn service time? I'm sure that's against the CBA.
  11. Robocaller
    I can't disagree more, at least not after they acquired Winker and Anderson. I'd rather have a guy who could play decent OF instead of Winker (allowing Yelich to DH more), but after they got those guys, their decisions have been fine, with the possible exception of not bringing up Frelick instead of Wiemer (but I can see how they made that decision). Plus, I don't know if Taylor was expected to be the "primary" RF. A few guys would play there, and I think Anderson was always slated for a good number of games in RF.
  12. Robocaller
    Taylor slots in well as a 4th OF. As a 3rd OF, most folks would aspire for more, but most teams don't have a better 3rd-best OF. I can't see an argument against that. If they don't demote Wiemer for at least two weeks during the season, that is evidence of malpractice by team's management. They would lose a year of team control. His BA has dropped pretty far, so I don't think it makes the team worse by bringing back Taylor and demoting Wiemer. I just wish Frelick was forcing the issue of a promotion for him, though he's been off to a slow start.
  13. Robocaller
    Lenny Dykstra, but not a D.
  14. Robocaller
    I hope they come to their senses soon. Why is Owen Miller on the O.D. roster? He made a tiny bit of sense as a guy who could fill in at 1B a little bit, but with Voit, he won't even be needed for that. What more does Frelick have to prove?
  15. Robocaller
    I don't know how Baltimore got in that list. Oakland is cheap--even 2.2M is too much for them to take on a marginal player. If he cleared waivers and refused the assignment, Oakland might swoop in and give him a minimum salary; some team probably would.
  16. Robocaller
    no one wanted him for $2+ M. Doesn't mean no one wanted him.
  17. Robocaller
    Being up on OD doesn't mean he'll be up for the whole season. He could be up until Taylor can return, and then an extra year isn't an issue.
  18. Robocaller
    I think all of these guys have a decent chance to be in the majors at some point within the next 2-3 years. Strikeouts are hugely important when evaluating minor league stats for pitchers, but stuff trumps that. Can Cornielle sit in the mid-90s, or is he a 90-ish fastball kinda guy?
  19. Robocaller
    I think the timeline would be deadline in '23, if the team has little chance of making the playoffs.
  20. Robocaller
    well that's great. did I provide an address when I signed up for the site?
  21. Robocaller
    Success means making the playoffs and having young players develop.
  22. Robocaller
    or WPA didn't.
  23. Robocaller
    I think a 6 man rotation is a given, perhaps moving the big two up a day occasionally when their next turn would be on a day off.
  24. Robocaller
    Rollie Fingers should be #1, no question. He won the MVP as a reliever. He frequently pitched multiple innings and didn't rack up saves as much as contemporary closers do. The Brewers have had many great seasons from closers, but no one compares to Fingers.
  25. Robocaller
    Keener!
