One Less Complex League Team in 2023?
Robocaller replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
I disapprove. -
they should have Mitchell, Frelick, and Taylor splitting time in CF and RF, with some games at LF when Yelich is on the bench or DH.

I want to applaud you for the time it took to do that analysis. However, looking at the context of each HR is worse than evaluating a hitter's ability by their RBIs. There are already good ways to look at a hitter's production. Perhaps some day you will provide a better way of doing it, but it is not this day.
-
It's the worst possible outcome. Frelick, Mitchell, and Taylor would all be better options in RF.
-
When I was a little kid, I was at a game and Briggs made a catch against the wall right in front of me. He seemed huge. Baseball Ref. has him as 190#, but I can't imagine him being that light.
-
I've come to think he means valuable in the fantasy baseball context, which I think has modest to no relevance to real world baseball value.
-
As others have said, this isn't a good analysis, but you seem to have neglected to remove his HRs from his ABs (although you might have removed them from his hits). He hit .197 if you remove them from both. Though doing so makes no sense.
-
Aaron Judge only batted .226 if you take away his HRs.
-
I think it's an exaggeration to say he blew it. He was basically average. This isn't Lake Wobegon, all of our children can't be above average. If Frelick is up on O.D., I figured Mitchell, Frelick, and Taylor would all get 450-500 PA.

Article: The Five Best Shortstops in Brewers History
Robocaller replied to Harold Hutchison's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Adames seems to have been downgraded for lack of seniority. If so, you should state that. The two main takeaways from these top 5 lists are: 1) It's very arbitrary. 2) We haven't had enough success to make this a productive enterprise. Has anyone done closers yet? At least there would be some good choices there, even beyond #5. -
This should probably be in the other Anderson thread, but. . . I wouldn't be surprised at all if 1/3rd or more of Anderson's ABs come as an OF (or 1B). But I think Turang won't be on the OD roster (Particularly since Frelick predicted he'd start in AAA--if he does, Turang will too). Replace Turang on the roster with Brosseau, and 2B will be covered by Urias (when he's not playing 3B) and Toro (or one of the other guys who might take that slot). This is not what I think will be optimal. I think Frelick and Turang will be two of the best 13 position player/hitters we could put on the O.D. roster. And I don't know what to think about Hiura. If they don't feel comfortable having Anderson and Winker as their 4th and 5th OF, they might keep Perkins.
-
I dunno. The Babe is guaranteed a WAR of 0.0.
-
Aroldis Chapman. The comparables are players signed right around when Anderson signed, or after. Guys who had good offers took them earlier.
-
The comparables should be players signed around the time Anderson was signed, or later. The earlier a guy signs, the more likely he had a good payday.
-
well, if Rowdy or Winker are injured to start the year.
-
Significantly? I don't see it. I'm not all that high on Toro, but he might have more upside than Anderson. Of course, I could be wrong and he goes back to an .800+ OPS.
-
Except this wasn't really much of a bargain.
-
So Toro and Miller are sent down? And Brosseau becomes a 1b? I'd be surprised as hell if it went down like you propose, though I think Urias will be playing both 2b and 3b. I can't see any way, barring injuries, that Turang is up before June.
-
Definitely. I think we'll have an INF mob with Rowdy and Adames pencilled in most games at 1B and SS respectively, but with Urias, Anderson, and whomever else breaks spring training on the 26 all playing multiple positions. If Adames gets injured, Turang will have to be brought up because the other guys shouldn't be playing SS except in an emergency. It's really hard to know what we'll get from Anderson. I'm wondering what this means for Hiura, who already wasn't certain to make the roster, but has a guaranteed contract.
-
I think that's a bit of an overpay. I'd rather have a $3.5-5.5M late-inning reliever.
-
He hit LHP pretty well in 2022.
-
Yeah, poor guys might not even have $30M career earnings. :-)
