    Yeah. That's still not an accurate description of what happened but okay.
  2. Brewcrew82
    I never said Lara shouldn't be playing. I pointed out reasons why he would be on the bench yesterday, and why it was understandable under the circumstances. Of freaking course, Lara shouldn't be on the bench the entire week and should be playing most days.
  3. Brewcrew82
    They're very much in the race and are as good of a bet as any non-Yankees/Rays team to make the WS out of the AL. They need bats and are not going to sell their best bat.
  4. Brewcrew82
    Why would Seattle trade one of their best bats?
  5. Brewcrew82
    A much better idea is to acquire Casey Mize without giving up anywhere near that level of future assets.
  6. Brewcrew82
    And Lara came up empty in his chance with a RISP tonight...Vaughn has been on base twice.... You're not exactly being proven right. lol
  7. Brewcrew82
    .308 xWOBA vs RHP which is below league average in AAA.
  8. Brewcrew82
    Except no one is saying you can't question him. Your line of argument in this situation just happens to be quite weak when weighed against the facts and the totality of Murph's record.
  9. Brewcrew82
    One HR doesn't really cancel anything out. Yelich hit a HR on Friday. He does play the field, but he's legitimately been replacement level over the last month plus. His game calling has left a lot to be desired. He's costing us basically as much as Yelich.
  10. Brewcrew82
    Yeah, because that's what switch hitters are famous for doing lol
  11. Brewcrew82
    Hot take: For all the criticism Yelich is getting, Contreras deserves as much right now at the plate.
  12. Brewcrew82
    Murphy is crazy for not having him in the lineup tonight. Clearly, that's the reason we're not scoring.
  13. Brewcrew82
    When is Lara going to hit as a righty against a RHP? Maybe you want to think it through...
  14. Brewcrew82
    Lara (and Pratt) are not accustomed to an MLB schedule. They naturally require more off days than the other guys as they adjust to MLB life. Mahle is also worse against RHH this year to the tune of an .872 OPS vs. .726 against LHH. Hardly nonsense. I'll defer to the decision-making of the winningest manager in Brewers history for the most part.

    Complaining about the legends game is like a new record for the IGT thread lmao

    Let's be honest. The vast majority of prospects don't work out like we think they will (see below). An elite organization like the Brewers is not only able quickly replenish whatever is lost, but they're also able to evaluate their prospects better than everyone else and maximize value by selling high where appropriate. No way am I trading Made (unless the Royals suddenly put Bobby Witt Jr on the market). Everyone else, though, should be available for the right price. I don't subscribe to the "windows theory". Who knows how things will look in a few months, let alone a few years. What you do know for certain is you currently have a team that is tied for the best record in baseball and is in need of some reinforcements. You should do everything within reason to maximize that team's chances of winning a WS. Future must always be accounted for, but you can't lose sight of the present.

    I fundamentally disagree with the assessment that the Brewers have less of a need at the top of their rotation. Their entire top of the rotation is dealing with injuries and/or innings concerns. Woody ain’t coming back. One more serious injury and you’re potentially looking at starting Aaron Ashby every other playoff game again.
  18. Brewcrew82
    You're correct my bad. Just still a consistent and concerning lack of durability.
  19. Brewcrew82
    I'm probably more willing than most to sell on Henderson as the dude hasn't come close to pitching even 100 innings in a season professionally. I would not trade him for Joe Ryan, though. I might consider it for Reid Detmers, if he were the main piece going to LAA.
  20. Brewcrew82
    The Brewers biggest need at the deadline is a veteran post-season caliber starter. Because can you really trust that each of Miz, Harrison, and Henderson are going to be healthy and pitching at their best come October? Considering their youth, injury histories and/or innings totals? You maybe could've when Woody was still an option, but not with him out of the picture imo. Skubal obviously fits the bill better than anyone out there. Skubal's teammate, Mize, is another sneaky (less expensive?) rental option. Otherwise, I'd probably prefer that they get someone with multiple years of control remaining, especially if they're going to deal from the very top of their prospect pool.

    Just gotta get the top of the order going again. I miss June when Chourio and Bauers were hitting lasers all over the place.
  22. Brewcrew82
    Joey Ortiz is your third baseman. No way they're upgrading from him at the deadline.
  23. Brewcrew82
    Bauers is starting to slump too unfortunately. It's literally every guy except for Mitchell, Ortiz, and Pratt.
  24. Brewcrew82
    Absolutely not. I can think of several different players who need to sit before Chourio. Remember when everyone wanted to bench Mitchell back in May? You gotta let guys work through their slumps.
  25. Brewcrew82
    He had no chance at that.
