  1. Thinking about it more, Voit probably has until Taylor returns. Once Taylor is back, we can just go with Taylor/Wiemer in RF, Anderson at 3B and Brosseau at 1B against LHP....And then Contreras at DH, with Caratini catching. Still probably one above average against LHP hitter short, but that can be taken care of at the deadline.
  2. Getting Taylor (109 career wRC+) and Urias (120 career wRC+) back will help against LHP. But the Voit experiment has to be nearing an end unless he suddenly picks it up with the bat. It's getting to the point where I'd rather have Hiura, whose K% has decreased over the last week or so in AAA (SSA I know).
  3. Yeah. First time was sort of a dumpster dive. This one was just a really prescient signing.
  4. I did. Mainly because Rowdy came into the game with only one hit against LHP. Oh well good on CC
  5. That’d be good honestly. Last thing we want is an NL team trading for Ohtani, especially the Cardinals.
  6. That’s a really nice win. Opportunity to salvage a rough home stand the next two games. Where would we be without Miley. Given how the injury bug has once again struck our rotation, that might turn out to be one of the best FA signings of the Stearns/Arnold era.
  7. Yeah. Tyrone can go to RF when he comes back.
  8. I’ll scoff at the notion that Andrew McCutchen and Connor Joe are going to keep hitting at the MVP/all-star level they currently are and power them to a division title.
  9. So CC pretty much listened to me. I didn't really expect him to DH Contreras today seeing as he sat on Wednesday. Only complaint I really have is Wiemer hitting a bit too low, but that's small potatoes.
  10. Hey he still be more than fine. Even when he doesn't rhyme He may not have all the time. In his stead we can just mime.
  11. Joey Wiemer over the last 7 games: .348/.375/.608. Kid might be figuring it out at the plate. Already at a .7 bWAR/.5fWAR due to the value he provides in the field and on the basepaths.
  12. Would like to see this lineup tonight: Yelich LF Brosseau 3B Adames SS Contreras DH Anderson RF Voit 1B Wiemer CF Caratini C Miller 2B Think we could score some runs tonight with that lineup. Naturally, though, CC’s lineup probably won’t look anything like this and will almost certainly involve Brosseau leading off and Yelich hitting 3rd…
  13. Brewers are never landing that big-time of a player from Japan. We were never seriously in the picture.
  14. Connor Joe, Andrew McCutchen, and Jack Suwinski leading the charge for them alongside Reynolds. I think we can expect some regression there....
  15. Despite our injuries, we're still in pretty good shape almost a month into the season. I don't think many people are buying the Pirates as a real contender, and even the Cubs to a lesser extent.
  16. His performance in AAA this year was a huge SSA. He already earned it with his performance last year, a la Wiemer and Mitchell. Not that I think he should go right to the big league roster when he's healed from surgery, but a week or two of games with him showing no ill-effects, and I'm calling him up if Wiemer and/or Taylor are struggling/injured.
  17. It'll be worth it if he's hitting and we're in contention.
  18. Good read based on study of MLB players. Basically, he'll miss the 6-8 weeks post-surgery, but shouldn't suffer any ill-effects re. performance. https://www.healio.com/news/orthopedics/20180912/mlb-players-likely-to-return-to-usual-play-after-thumb-ucl-repair
  19. I have no clue why we're suddenly thinking that Frelick is done for the year. Mike Trout suffered this same injury while sliding into a base in 2017 and returned six weeks later and was just fine. Frelick's not even a guy who's reliant on his power.
  20. They changed the ruling on the Anderson botched fly-ball and gave Maton a double. Runs now charged to Freddy. Stupid. Completely disagree with the scorers being able to change their ruling after the game.
  21. Woody throwing basketballs into the stands at the Bucks game. But doing so left-handed lol
  22. Braves didn't have a problem DHing Contreras last year with D'Arnaud catching...
  23. Geez. McCutchen's already put up more than half of his bWAR total from last year in 21 games....
  24. Okay, fine, you said they don't catch everyday. But, if Rutschman can play every game so far this season, why can't Contreras play a little more than he has been, including at DH? Winker is the full-time DH AGAINST RHP. Against LHP, he doesn't play...Creates opportunity for Contreras to get rest from C and see time at DH without having to be removed from the lineup completely. FWIW, Winker wasn't even in the lineup on the roadtrip, yet Contreras still didn't DH...
  25. Speaking of Tyrone Taylor, how long we thinking he'll need to be in Nashville for? Haven't been able to find anything from CC or Arnold. He didn't play at all in ST, so I'm assuming a week and a half at minimum...
