    I know who should be staying on the major league roster instead of Turang and Brosseau.
  2. Brewcrew82
    Nobody on this team wants to step up.

    "One-sided incessant whining about calls that are borderline at best". While the ones we were previously discussing were more borderline (but still strikes), that one wasn't even close. Whining is more than warranted.
  4. Brewcrew82
    Yes. And not just for the service time either. Needs regular at-bats.
  5. Brewcrew82
    The one I just showed you was far from borderline, though. Missed strike 3 which led to a walk...
  6. Brewcrew82
    I think it might be time for Strzelecki to be demoted in favor of Payamps.
  7. Brewcrew82
    Or they could be...Gameday and the strike zone TV box both showed them as strikes. He's missed plenty of pitches tonight. He also missed this dandy earlier, which led directly to one of Burnes' walks. "Clear enough of a strike"?
  8. Brewcrew82
    A strike is a strike. He missed all three pitches.
  9. Brewcrew82
    He was more than okay last year...I don't think I'd trade him at this point unless a team blows you away. Bet on a rebound 2nd half and then trade him in the offseason.
  10. Brewcrew82
    I think you need to readjust your glasses. They were strikes that hit the bottom of the zone.
  11. Brewcrew82
    Okay result from Corbin all things considered. 4 walks is not great obviously, but the umpiring tonight certainly didn't help. India's HR was just a good piece of hitting and then the other run scored without a single hit. Still, need more consistency with location/command from him. Leadoff walks and throwaway pitches are killers. What's preventing him from being his ace self right now...
  12. Brewcrew82
    This ump is terrible.
  13. Brewcrew82
    After he missed two strikes at the bottom of the zone...
  14. Brewcrew82
    They have another two day off day coming up before their series with the Cubs in London at the end of July.
  15. Brewcrew82
    Can our defense please go back to being good.
  16. Brewcrew82
    I think you'd still have to consider a discount for Woody or Corbin if it's suddenly available. I doubt it, but you'd have to consider it.
  17. Brewcrew82
    Wild Bill kills lefties.

    "Extreme homerism" First of all, this is a Brewers fan site. That stuff does tend to appear from time to time. Second of all, how is simply pointing out the models viewing the Brewers as division favorites extreme homerism? That's as neutral and objective as it gets... Finally, what's also not objective is saying the Cardinals' rotation is underperforming close to the extent the Brewers is, as Wiguy has pointed out to you. That's once again just pro-Cardinals spin.
  19. Brewcrew82
    Yeah. Something is clearly wrong with Winker. Suffice to say, he hasn't recovered from neck surgery. Did they rush him back too soon or is he simply done at the age of 29? Should get the answer to this question by what they do with him after this IL stint and whether he can show any semblance of power on rehab. Ready to see what Toro can bring. An offensive breakout like Owen Miller would be nice. The positional versatility over Winker will also be much appreciated.
  20. Brewcrew82
    They actually have a good shot at making a deep run with how the bracket is lined up. Could potentially be the first US men's team to ever make a final at a World Cup. Didn't concede a single goal in the group stage. And they ran roughshod over CONCACAF last summer.
  21. Brewcrew82
    Well, hopefully we can go back to winning now that we're not facing the Giants. My best guess at tonight's lineup: Ruf DH Contreras C Miller 2B Yelich LF Anderson 3B Brosseau 1B Taylor RF Wiemer CF Turang SS Need Houser to keep up the good work with his increased usage of his 4 seamer. And for Tyrone Taylor to take off the independent league hitter disguise he's been wearing since coming off the IL. Would help if Brosseau decided to start hitting lefties again, too.
  22. Brewcrew82
    Yeah. I don't see how anyone could reasonably draw the conclusion that the Cardinals are better positioned with their SP right now. The evidence just isn't there. ERA isn't a great stat, but despite everything going wrong in their rotation the Brewers are currently 10th in the majors and the Cardinals are 23rd. I think that pretty well encapsulates things. And the upside for the Brewers with Burnes, Peralta, and eventually Woodruff is so much higher. Brewers right now are tentative favorites followed fairly closely by the Cardinals/Cubs, and behind them the Pirates and Reds. A mediocre division for sure. Still the Brewers can't continue their May play and expect to win the division. Thankfully, due to the extent of injuries and underperformance combined with their current position, there's good reason to think that they won't.
  23. Brewcrew82
    And I take that into account too when I see you swiftly dismiss ERA-, WPA, etc. All the while spinning everything in favor of the Cardinals and against the Brewers despite the Brewers currently being the consensus division favorites by the models. I may not have your quantity of years, but I've lived and died with the Brewers all the same. FWIW, like Wiguy I don't actually question whether you're a Brewers fan....It's just very unusual the lengths you'll go to defend the Cardinals and attack the Brewers sometimes.
  24. Brewcrew82
    Lol. No one is saying the Cardinals are dead. Just that they're not the favorites to win the division at this point and that the Brewers, for all their flaws, are. Which is backed up by the projections. (I don't think anyone is willing to consider the Brewers a shoe-in by any stretch). As Wiguy points out, the Cardinals have factually had less injuries than the Brewers and an easier schedule to this point. Their offense is performing right in line with expectations and yet they've still been mediocre to bad and are 7 games behind the Brewers in the loss column. You consistently going out of your way to qualify these simple facts and twist them in favor of the Cardinals is what's getting others to wonder/joke about your leanings.
  25. Brewcrew82
    Hitting/underperformance and injuries.... Cardinals have been hitting really well and yet are still barely over .500 on the month due to their SP.
