yeah, I'd word it more like they were hoping he'd start to hit better against lefties, because that's what most RH hitters do. So they are giving him opportunities. They should give him more opportunities vs. RHP.
But I don't think that's their intention. If their intention is as reported, it's only to assure he still qualifies as a rookie next year. They control his ABs (or is it PA?) so they can keep him under 130.
I feel that the only reason feliciano was brought up was he was with the taxi squad and they needed someone available immediately in case Caratini got hurt in the next game.
so we lost Reetz because Mario was able to get to MKE (or wherever they were playing) quicker? Otherwise, Reetz could have gotten called up and played a couple of games before being sent back down.
It's like a parent saying you can have a puppy if you take care of it. I'm feeling the brewers haven't been taking good care of some of their pitchers this year.
I think they're a better bet to win the division than to be a wild card team.
The Yankees have been 3-12 recently; it's not that they suddenly became crap, it's because there is a lot of chance involved in winning baseball games.
Brewers could get on a winning streak at any time. the sooner the better.
There is literally no significant downside of giving him a chance. If he's lost in the majors, the brewers can send him back to Nashville and still have 3 or more reasonable alternatives.
I think we have 100% of the information required to make a decision, and Frelick should be brought up as soon as there are no significant negative consequence of bringing him up.
100% of the Information: He's raking, and CF is our worst position.
It's easy to remember to spell his last name Wiemer. In German names with back-to-back vowels, the second one is pronounced (sorta). His name is pronounced WEEMER, so it's Wiemer.
