    Falter it is.

    Hayes is on some kind of tear right now. He's hitting homers off of pitchers he's absolutely stunk against in Burnes and Peralta.
  3. Brewcrew82
    If Keller is the long-man today, Shelton is stupid.
  4. Brewcrew82
    Willy picks up Sal.

    The difference between Hiura and Frelick is K rate. And it’s a major, major difference. Hiura struck out 26% of the time in AAA and his K rate kept increasing at every level of the minors. Looking back, that was evidence that he had a huge hole in his swing that major league pitchers would be able to exploit, and they did, despite his reputation as a “bonafide hitter”. Frelick, who already started out as a high-contact hitter, has seen his K rate shrink at each minor league stop, culminating in a 8% K rate last year in AAA, which was one of the best in all the minors. As for BABIP, yes it’s harder to maintain in the majors due to higher quality pitching and fielding. But we’re talking about a more than .50 point difference here for someone who has always maintained a high BABIP due to his speed. That cries for some positive regression, even if it’s not quite to his minor league levels.

    Sure and most rookies do. But you gotta like the minor league track record over any other of our rookies.
  7. Brewcrew82
    Not with a top 5/3 farm system like the Brewers currently have.
  8. Brewcrew82
    True. There’s a little projecting involved for Frelick that he will start to make harder contact as he continues to adjust to major league pitching. I don’t see why you wouldn’t project that though given how he’s hit the ball everywhere he’s been. Perhaps his double and triple last night are evidence that he’s figuring it out a bit.
  9. Brewcrew82
    Frelick’s BA is going to rise here very soon. .271 BABIP is more than 50 points below his minor league average. Garrett Mitchell gets a lot of love from the fan base for how he’s performed in his brief major league stint, but he’s the exact opposite of Frelick in terms of being a huge beneficiary of BABIP luck. Not to mention a 40% K rate vs a 16% K rate for Sal.

    Makes you wonder who’s the long guy today. You gotta think they wouldn’t have an opener if it was Keller pitching….That would be significant with the way that guy’s been throwing the ball.

    It hasn't even been a few games for Donaldson. Today was literally his second game. As for Hiura, his problem is that he got injured right when they might have considered calling him up. And then for a while upon returning from injury, he wasn't performing close to as well as he did earlier in the season. He regained his form eventually, but by that time the Brewers had Santana and Rowdy was due to return. The difference with Andrews is that Andrews has options. Hiura doesn't.

    Sophia said tonight that Houser will be returning to the rotation during that stretch.

    Giants really suck now. We kinda got the short end playing them when we did.
  14. Brewcrew82
    Giants tie the game 4-4.
  15. Brewcrew82
    Andrews is unfortunately a AAAA player it looks like.
  16. Brewcrew82
    Still don't understand why they don't start using Gasser out of relief. Especially if Rea is our 6th starter.
  17. Brewcrew82
    Chafin actually looks......kinda good.
  18. Brewcrew82
    I love Miley, but I wouldn't start him over Burnes in a playoff series.
  19. Brewcrew82
    Someone said Frelick should be benched? Almost like you have to let rookies go through the adjustment process.
  20. Brewcrew82
    I think that's your game 1 starter right there.
  21. Brewcrew82
    Nice at-bat by Yeli to start the inning. Maybe that will get him going,
  22. Brewcrew82
    Of course. Teams that are in first place and with a +95% chance of making the postseason usually are.
  23. Brewcrew82
    They did get the 2nd best catcher in baseball this year by fWAR for pretty much nothing.
  24. Brewcrew82
    He’s going to get blacklisted regardless at this point as an impending FA.
  25. Brewcrew82
    We could always sign and trade for “big-time”hitters like the Phillies. Oh wait….
