    My bad. Still the Brewers are not generally in the business of giving MLB contracts to guys to sit in AAA or on the bench. If he's extended, I would expect him to be called up soon and be seeing significant MLB ABs, almost certainly at the expense of Frelick. With Chourio, Mitchell, and Bauers already taking up the lion's share of ABs, it becomes a simple numbers game. Would they need to trade Frelick? No, especially with Mitchell's health always in question. But he would become a 4th/5th OFer and likely be on his way out sooner than later.

    Sal Frelick has had three full seasons in the majors at this point. There's a major difference. Do I think that Sal is quite as bad as his numbers would indicate? No. But an extension of Lara right now would be quite ominous for Frelick, with a trade possible as soon as the deadline.
  3. Brewcrew82
    If an extension is what is occurring, I would imagine Sal Frelick instantly becomes a trade candidate.
  4. Brewcrew82
    Made is obvious. But not trading Pena either unless for a legit controllable star. We have a multitude of back half of top 100 guys that can be made available for the right player.

    Last year in Game 5 he wasn't dealing with a hammate injury sapping him of his bat speed
  6. Brewcrew82
    He was 0-4 with weak contact galore. He's not close to as good against RHP as he is against LHP right now.
  7. Brewcrew82
    Hopefully tonight will get people to stop whining when Vaughn isn't in the lineup against a RHP.

    Notwithstanding the caveat that batting order has a limited impact, I'd like to know the reasoning behind why Pat Murphy doesn't bat Brice Turang leadoff.... Other than Shohei Ohtani, I have a hard time thinking of a more ideal leadoff candidate in the modern game than Brice... 2B Turang RF Chourio DH Yelich C Contreras LF Bauers 1B Vaughn CF Mitchell..... Looks like something that would end up producing a lot of runs by the end of the season provided at least basic production from the 8 and 9 spots. Best OBP hitter leading off. Maximize the PAs for your very best hitters. Power scattered effectively throughout the lineup. L-R alternates so opposing manager can't attack weakside.

    FWIW, the increased revenue sharing going to small markets under the MLBPA’s proposal is illusory. You have more money being diverted away from small markets through the massive increase in the CBT threshold and the consequently sharply reduced tax payments from clubs like the Dodgers. Let’s be honest MLBPA couldn’t care less about small markets. They just want more money for themselves, particularly the well off members who comprise their executive committee. Which basically means they’re pro-Dodgers.
  10. Brewcrew82
    I'd say local TV revenue sharing is just as important, if not moreso than any cap. The Dodgers are able to spend more not only because they've got a massive TV deal due to their market size, but because they are also EXEMPT from having to pay out the standard share of that pie on account of a bankruptcy settlement under their previous owner. That needs to be dealt with first and foremost because how the heck is a market like Milwaukee supposed to compete with that? To Manfred's credit, his idea of combining MLB TV rights like the NFL is a logical solution toward reducing those disparities.
  11. Brewcrew82
    Or.........perhaps no one knows the full truth, and they're withholding judgement in the absence of those clear set of facts. Of course, Brewers fans are going to tend to want to take the Brewers player's side. What a strange concept.

    What is this an interrogation? Watch the video yourself at 1:53....

    I don't have any reason not to believe Uribe that the Cardinals weren't innocent in this. Should he have done what he did? No. But the Cards' organization does have a history of this sort of crap. It's whatever for me really. So long as he backs up his antics on the field.
  14. Brewcrew82
    Uribe said this happened yesterday fwiw....
  15. Brewcrew82
    Prediction: Cardinals will not throw at a Brewer tomorrow because it will be obviously intentional and clear grounds for a suspension by MLB.
  16. Brewcrew82
    According to Uribe, Cardinals were stirring things up in their dugout and there was an "event" pre-game which precipitated his gesture.....
  17. Brewcrew82
    I can assure you that this team isn't playing Andrew Vaughn at 3B except in case of absolute emergency.
  18. Brewcrew82
    It's worth noting Luis Lara is considered to be arguably the best defensive CF in the minors.
  19. Brewcrew82
    Tarik Skubal may become available here if the Tigers continue to fall off. Just saying.
  20. Brewcrew82
    Bauers in LF and Chourio in CF tonight vs. Imanaga. Giddy'up.
  21. Brewcrew82
    There was handwringing on here over Chourio's defense yesterday.... In far less innings, he's already been better than every single one of our OFers by OAA and FRV. That play yesterday was low probability. Mitchell, for instance, has failed at numerous other similar or higher probability plays this year. Chourio's range gave him a chance at a ball that normally the LF should make. He's fine in CF (no worse than Mitchell and Perkins this year). And elite in the corners.

    Plenty of depth in AAA to tap into yet too between Gasser, Crow, Yoho, etc.

    DRS has Mitchell graded out negatively (-3) FWIW.
