    A rare poor AB from Yelich there.
  2. Brewcrew82
    3 more years.
  3. Brewcrew82
    Yeah, and he's missed what? 3? 4?. How many more plays has he made at 1B, particularly by getting to balls and making outs that the average first baseman doesn't. It's just that that doesn't get magnified like a missed scoop does.
  4. Brewcrew82
    Ughh. We just have such a hard time piecing hits together.
  5. Brewcrew82
    There's no reason why Turang should stay put at 1B here with two outs. Go for that extra run.
  6. Brewcrew82
    Sure. But not Miller. There's nearly 1000 innings worth of evidence out there. A missed scoop here and there doesn't change that. Adames makes bad throws from time to time (as he did here) and he's a GG caliber SS. More you get the ball, as 1B and SS do, the more opportunities for mistakes.
  7. Brewcrew82
    He's missed like 2-3 scoops. On the other hand, he gets to a lot more balls that the average 1st baseman, including Rowdy, doesn't get to. Scoops are just one part of the overall defensive profile at 1st.
  8. Brewcrew82
    Wild Bill, the lefty killer.
  9. Brewcrew82
    Yeah. Because all you see is the missed scoop. But have you ever focused on his range and the balls he gets to and makes outs on that few other 1B would...That's why the "eye test" is deceiving sometimes, and what advanced stats help highlight. .
  10. Brewcrew82
    I hate life. That was a 4-3 game.
  11. Brewcrew82
    Rowdy Tellez is the one who's a defensive liability at 1B...
  12. Brewcrew82
    Again, Miller has been one of the best defensive 1B in the game the last two years in 800 innings. He's not a defensive liability. That's a fallacy that keeps getting repeated.
  13. Brewcrew82
    Not as much Wiemer because he's shown the power and the ability to hit it hard. Turang doesn't hit it hard, isn't walking, and is striking out a ton. The latter two are particularly concerning as those are things he did really well and was known for in the minors...
  14. Brewcrew82
    Miller is a quality big league 1B (defensively). He just didn't make the play. Willy, a GG caliber SS, also didn't make a great throw.
  15. Brewcrew82
    I am super skeptical of Brice Turang's ability to be a major league hitter.
  16. Brewcrew82
    Miller got it, but it should've gone to Adames.
  17. Brewcrew82
    Because picking short hoppers is just one of the things that makes a good first baseman.
  18. Brewcrew82
    I have no confidence in this Schwarber at-bat.
  19. Brewcrew82
    What's so frustrating is how they followed up that 30 pitch inning with a 7 pitch inning...
  20. Brewcrew82
    At this moment I do.
  21. Brewcrew82
    I love the middle of our order!
  22. Brewcrew82
    Yeah. I’m not saying Miller should be our 1B because his bat isn’t good enough. I’m just saying that Hiura probably isn’t our solution there, either. He’d be better off at DH.
  23. Brewcrew82
    Who would you swap for bullpen arms? I think we should be pretty happy with how our bullpen is set up right now. Also, trades are rare this far out from the deadline due to the prices. Prices come down closer to the deadline and that’s when trades will happen.
  24. Brewcrew82
    We'd probably benefit more from playing Bellinger at 1B instead of Owen Miller.
  25. Brewcrew82
    The same thing applies if you extend it across the 800 innings he's played there the last two seasons. It's been his most frequent position in the majors. He's got excellent range for a first baseman and has gotten to balls that Rowdy could never dream of getting to. "Eye test" is deceiving, because he's been unable to scoop up a couple of throws, whereas Rowdy was generally able to do that well. But there's much more to fielding the position.
