  1. I've been super high on him ever since we signed him. Plus-Plus defense at a premium position and now potentially a plus bat? Him and Chourio could be a sight to behold.
  2. Looks like CC is going to go with Perdomo for the final 2. Hope it's smooth sailing.
  3. Wonder if CC will try for 8 innings now for Woody...
  4. All good points. I guess I just look at the 16 walks and 9 strikeouts Frelick has in AAA to go with a .366/.454/.455 batting line and see a perfect hitter for the #9 slot in this offense. And Frelick is no slouch in the field or on the bases either. Either way, I expect both players to be key contributors for us going forward.
  5. Oh, I have a lot of hope for Mitchell for sure. Just believe that Frelick is a more advanced hitter and better positioned to help the club right now.
  6. Yeah. Why I said "would". Some guys take longer to develop and adjust to the major leagues than others.
  7. Trade just keeps getting worse for the Marlins. What a kick in the nuts that would be.
  8. Yeah. Criticism of his latest comments is definitely justified. However, I strongly disagree that he's a "chump" because he opted out in 2020 in the middle of a pandemic.
  9. Since the break...four games (7/26-7/30). On the season...five games (4/26-4/30).
  10. For all the criticism of Adames' offense this year, he's straight-up become one of the best defensive shortstops in baseball...
  11. Why does he owe us any explanation when his teammates and the front office were all perfectly okay with his decision?
  12. Frelick should be up over both Ruiz and Mitchell. Grrrr
  13. They're definitely a lot more fun to watch at this ballpark.
  14. "Garbage"? You should think about what you're posting. Baseball is just a game man.
  15. And yet his teammates were perfectly understanding of his decision when he made it....The fact that you think you can judge a guy with a young family and when you don't know anything about their personal health situation says a lot imo. He's a human and a father more than he is a baseball player. He doesn't owe you an explanation.
  16. He could struggle, like any prospect experiencing their first taste of the majors, but he's also a more advanced hitter than Mitchell who's now done all that he can at the minor league level.
  17. Yeah. Posted before the official measurement....lol
  18. That might be the furthest I've ever seen Yelich hit it.
  19. And what do you know about his young family's personal health situation? A lot of major leaguers opted out during the 2020 season...Buster Posey, David Price, etc. Again, he didn't stink up the joint last year. This year? Yes. But the Brewers knew that when they signed him as an early 30s player to a 5 year deal. Criticizing him for anything 2020/COVID-related is such an asinine take, and I don't understand why you continue to repeat it.
  20. Between him and Gasser, Misiorowski, Rodriguez, etc, I don't think our organizational pitching depth is as bare as some seem to think. Small has been a disappointment, for sure, but on average I would say things are on the up-and-up....
  21. I know he won't be eligible for the postseason roster (if we make it there), but it also might be time to consider calling up Sal Frelick if Mitchell continues to struggle at the plate. Rooting very hard for Mitchell, and he provides tremendous defense, but Frelick is clearly a more advanced offensive player right now. 15 walks versus 9 strikeouts at a .376/.460/.468 clip in 109 at-bats in AAA....
  22. I wouldn't take McCalvy's article at face value, fwiw, as I find it incredibly hard to believe that a professional baseball player did absolutely nothing in the off-season to stay in shape other than "chase his kids around". I'm sure he worked out in some form behind the scenes, and the "chasing the kids around" was more of a comment in jest. Also, he was not "subpar" at the plate in 2021. He was around league average to slightly above average with a 103 OPS+ and a 3.2 fWAR. Combined with his typically stellar defense and baserunning, that was more than enough production from him when healthy. The problem really started this year, when his power completely vanished and he turned into a below replacement-level player.
