  1. I mean if you had followed Chourio at all during his ascent through the minors it was pretty easy to see something like this happening. So, you kind of set yourself up for that. There's something that has never been in doubt whatsoever with Chourio and that is his psyche/confidence. Even when he was struggling, he wasn't overwhelmed to the extent that a Jackson Holliday, for example, was.
  2. Peguero with inherited runners. Brace yourselves....
  3. Inexcusable managerial mistake there by Murphy to not pinch hit for Monasterio there.
  4. Yeah, injuries can always happen. And I would like to see him find a true defensive home. But, gosh, if that home is in the OF grass hard to see him having much of an impact in Milwaukee in the immediate future.
  5. Overall, I'm fine with not mortgaging any pieces from what should be a nice extended window opening up here in the next few years. I will be interested to see how they plan on getting outs in the postseason, though. Hard to do bullpen games all the time. We really need Freddy to pick it up like he did in the 2nd half last year.
  6. Too bad there's no room on the OF grass in Milwaukee.
  7. How do the Dodgers get away with this.
  8. They're highly unlikely to be underdogs in a Wild Card series if they stay #3.
  9. Unless some stuff goes down in the next half hour, this is shaping up to be the most boring deadline in recent history.
  10. Not quite sure how "obvious selling" and 7 game lead work together, but I'm listening.
  11. Some would say Skenes, but hard to count on a pitcher to stay healthy and he's got 4 less years of control if he wins ROY. Fangraphs sort of explored this question recently in their trade value series. Chourio came in at 25 behind Henderson, Witt, Skenes, Elly, Julio, etc. But, yeah, of that list I personally would probably only entertain a 1-1 deal for Witt and Julio. But even in those cases I would think long and hard about it.
  12. Mears looks like the dude his peripherals say he is. Could be another great relief pickup by this FO.
  13. Rangers are still hanging in the fringes of the playoff race. And I don't see why we shouldn't take him at his word when he's 40 years old and has done everything he can in this game, including winning his second WS title just last year. There's a reason why we're hearing nothing from insiders about the possibility of him being traded.
  14. From the Tigers beat....Flaherty has also been connected with the Yankees today, too. He's already been scratched from his start so presumably a trade is imminent.
  15. Scherzer already said he's not waiving his no-trade clause again.
  16. For sure. Crazy how he's been better in his 30s than he was in his 20s.
  17. Only threw 75 pitches. Wasn't as sharp today though and we have Wilson and Junis in our pen, so looks like Murph was willing to sell out to avoid the sweep.
  18. With Willy being our best player this year, they'd go down by quite a bit on top of Yelich being out. They also have no one to replace Ortiz at 3B if you move him to SS. It's just not going to happen.
  19. I'd be willing to bet my life savings that Adames is a Brewer come next week. It's really fan fiction to think otherwise at this point. I'm all for buying as we have a 6 game division lead and 85% playoff odds and that situation doesn't come around as often as we think despite how spoiled we've been the last 7 years. But I also realize that we're just entering a real WS contention window here, so it has to be done responsibly. I agree that ideally you want guys with multiple years of control. At the same time, those guys cost more so who knows.
  20. Yeah. I agree there's some nuance here as back issues are notoriously unpredictable. And he very well may have felt good enough to play at that time. I guess I just would've preferred that he played it safe and used the full rest period given his history and importance to the team. I would've had no issues with him playing if he was feeling normal.
  21. @Brock BeauchampCould you please unlock my vote in light of the news that Levonas is unlikely to sign? Silly me for assuming the Brewers would sign every top pick as they've done since 2010.
  22. Sure, a bit. It is illustration of how much Hiura strikes out. It's not a standalone stat by any stretch whatsoever, but it provides some very rough context to Keston's struggles which are undeniable at this point. Mainly, though, I just noticed that you seem to question stats quite a bit. So, I'm curious which ones you personally place value on is all....
