  1. I think what it comes down to is they thought they could get an upgrade on D and not lose any offense with Murphy. They were trying to improve on the margins after losing in the NLDS to the Phillies despite their super lineup. Fortunately, the Brewers said, "we'll happily take the offense and go ahead and turn him into an above average defender with our catching lab."
  2. There will be no extension. But also: MVP!
  3. Yeah. I meant the solid 3/4 starter version and not the 2023 shell of himself version.
  4. I watch Robert Gasser and I think Eric Lauer, but with a legitimate out pitch in a sweeper.
  5. He's getting paid big league money currently, too....Not the major part of his salary, but still quite a bit more than a rookie contract/the major league minimum. You have to give him more time against big league pitching, something that's simply not replicable in AAA. It's not like we any better options right now either, especially with Hoskins likely to go on the IL. He's already shown one major sign of adjustment as his K% has dovetailed to 10% over the last few weeks. Now, he's gotta work to better counts and start swinging at drivable pitches and driving the ball. And he'll probably have until Mitchell returns to do so.
  6. Frelick is still probably more deserving of being sent down. He's sucked even more with the bat by xwOBA and doesn't have Chourio's secondary skills. I'm not saying Chourio shouldn't ever be sent down, but you've got $80 million reasons to give him as much leash as possible. Why my guess is until Mitchell returns.
  7. He's 20 years old, man with less than 120 ABs to his name...I never said anything about Bauers. You must think Wyatt Langford and Jackson Holliday suck, too, right? Or Corbin Carroll and Randy Arozarena for that matter. Also: Frelick; -.3 fWAR, .265 xwOBA Chourio: .1 fWAR, .269 xwOBA Frelick has also had way more MLB ABs than Chourio. He's just as deserving, if not more, of being sent down.
  8. My guess, especially with the Hoskins injury, is that Chourio has till Mitchell returns to turn it around. I think he's closer to figuring it out than many think. But he still has to show it. Honestly, Frelick probably deserves to be sent down more than Jackson right now.
  9. Feel like Perkins should have scored there.
  10. Looking forward to seeing how Cruz kills us this series.
  11. Not a good idea for a guy who missed last year with a torn ACL, Jason Lane. Not to mention you bail Mikolas out after having a chance to end his start in the first inning.
  12. 3-2 count....He had to put it in the zone because Chourio didn't chase the other slider in the dirt.
  13. Yeah it wasn't hanging. It was 3-2 count so he had to throw one in the zone.
  14. Chourio's salary should most definitely dictate what they do with him....To pretend otherwise is naive. Also, there's other players who are doing an equally good job of "dragging the team offense down".
  15. You're not doing it right if you sit Chourio on the bench only to bring him into face the other team's nastiest reliever. It was a tough pitch in that situation because Romero's giving him all sinkers and changeups and then puts that in there with his ability to tunnel. I'll blame Chourio because you probably still should fight it off, but I blame Murphy more for putting him in that spot after sitting him for 4 straight games.
  16. It's a tough pitch when Romero tunnels his pitches as well as he does. It's a heck of a spot for a 20 year old.
  17. Chourio's AB was fine. Romero just made a great pitch to a 20 year old. I blame Murphy for sending him out cold in that spot. Ortiz got screwed by the ump.
  18. Chourio it is. Heck of a spot to put him in, Murph. lol. Set the kid up for success.
  19. Absolutely have to pinch hit for Sal here.
