    They can still qualify if they get called up within like the next week. It's not OD roster. Chourio is ineligible since he signed the extension.
  2. Brewcrew82
    2018-2019 Yeli to start the year.
  3. Brewcrew82
    No we're not. Unless Ortiz, Black, Misiorowski, or Quero (rising from the dead) win ROY.
  4. Brewcrew82
    I definitely like Junis as a guy to get you 2 times through the order.
  5. Brewcrew82
    2 days off this week. Makes sense.
  6. Brewcrew82
    Who said we still can't one run games!
  7. Brewcrew82
    Going to be hard for add-ons against Diaz.
  8. Brewcrew82
    Feel like you just tip your cap there, and be thankful you got the insurance runs. He found his pitch, which wasn't even a bad pitch.
  9. Brewcrew82
    I would imagine it has a lot to do with being stretched out as a starter and it being cold and early in the season. I'll wait a little bit to be too concerned.
  10. Brewcrew82
    I would watch his postseason highlights from last year.
  11. Brewcrew82
    Ejection and suspension.
  12. Brewcrew82
    Remember when people were freaking out over the Hunter Renfroe trade....
  13. Brewcrew82
    Halls velo down.
  14. Brewcrew82
    First pitch quiets the crowd lol

    I thought we didn’t have pitching anymore! Seriously, it’s great to have baseball back, and it’s even greater to have the Brewers. Regardless of what happens the rest of the way, this will be a fun young team to follow.
  16. Brewcrew82
    I’d be shocked if it wasn’t Uribe. They still would’ve gone to him earlier if it wasn’t.
  17. Brewcrew82
    With this rotation, I think you try to get Freddy through 6 every chance you get. Even today.
  18. Brewcrew82
    Yeli!
  19. Brewcrew82
    Don’t hit it at that guy.
  20. Brewcrew82
    Frelick sitting automatically against LHP with his minor league splits is one thing, but sitting him in favor of Perkins is another thing all together. Fire Murphy!

    Feel sorry for him because he's a great pitcher, but not for Cubs fans. Looks like a very major injury.
  23. Brewcrew82
    Projections are also notoriously conservative on rookies.... I've already granted that his rookie floor is probably lower than Bobby Witt Jr's, but there isn't much to suggest we're looking at Joey Wiemer type struggles when he's never struggled that bad anywhere and has been K'ing less than 20% of the time in the minors and 70 ABs of big league ST.
  24. Brewcrew82
    I think the evidence points to his floor being somewhere around there, maybe a bit lower I'll grant you. Even when he was "struggling" in AA last year his wRC+ hovered around 90. And that's as bad as he's struggled anywhere professionally. I get the big leagues is a totally different monster, but he hasn't been K'ing at the 30% rate that would suggest significantly below that level of struggle to like Wiemer territory.
  25. Brewcrew82
    I agree he'll probably start out relatively slow as he did in AA last year, but dude still put up only the 5th 20/40 season for a teenager of the modern era. Also, the 112 wRC+ with the half-season tacked ball is still better than what Giancarlo Stanton, for example, put up in AA at age 19 and he went on to have a big rookie year. Thing that matters most to me by far about his ST (and ST stats in general) is his K%, which was at 19%. That's exceptional, especially compared to other top prospects who had big springs like Langford (24%) or Holliday (31%), and a major sign he's not going to get overwhelmed by big league pitching out of the gates. I still think he's going to start out slow because despite the superb BTB he's still learning to only go after pitches he can do damage with and thereby minimize some of the weak contact you saw, but once he figures that out he should take off. I think a reasonable floor is Bobby Witt Jr's rookie season with a reasonable ceiling being Julio Rodriguez's rookie season. Split the difference and you've got somewhere right where he was last year and then this year in spring training with a 105-120 wRC+. I'm personally on the higher end combined with his baserunning value. Hence my ROTY prediction.
