  1. Because he's the only player on the 26 man roster who has any experience playing 1B other than Caratini?
  2. Yeah Chourio kind of is giving off Ryan Braun vibes right now. If he could even remotely come close to Braun's bat with his CF defense, you are talking a superstar.
  3. What you’re ignoring about Gasser’s FB is that despite the average-ish IVB, it has an elite VAA at -4.1 degrees. Also his slider/cutter/curveball statcast info is a mess because they are constantly messing up the pitch classifications with him.
  4. Plenty of potential scenarios. Justin Wilson coming off 60-day IL, Hiura, Black, trade acquisition are all potential options. I would guess Wilson is most likely scenario
  5. Well that’s interesting
  6. Really depends on what they do with Wilken. Wherever Wilken goes, Adams will likely be at the other A-ball level. Boeve is someone they said might play some 2B. Bitonti is super young so he’s going to only be in the ACL this year.
  7. And what is the reasoning that Gasser is that pitcher that’s overrated.
  8. Luke Adams slashed .588/.667/1.118 this week for a 352 wRC+. That included 5 XBH, 4 BB, 3 SB, and just 3 SO. He also had 11 batted balls with an EV over 96 and 5 batted balls with an EV over 108. He’s a 19 year old in A ball folks. Those are incredibly special numbers.
  9. None of those moves happened under the Brewers current FO model. What they did when Melvin was the GM is pretty much irrelevant.
  10. Yupp. We aren’t Trueblood’s Cubs who can go out and spend $15+M a year on mid-tier FA SP. Brewers are not going to trade their 2 closest to the MLB rotation SP prospects for RP.
  11. Have you just not been paying attention? He’s dramatically improved everything you say he needs to improve. His K-rate over his last 200 PA is 16%
  12. This timeline is so incredibly off for Chourio. He’s going to be in the MLB far sooner than mid-season 2025
  13. The Braves farm system is super weak so don’t read too much into those prospect rankings. Vodnik is a 23 year old RP in AA with a 3.10 ERA and 3.56 FIP. Gordon is a 25 year old SP in AAA with a 5.86 ERA and 4.25 FIP across AA and AAA this year. I’m not sure either of these prospects would be ranked in the Brewers system. Maybe Vodnik would be in the 20’s like Cam Robinson was to start the season
  14. You’re suggesting trading a top 100 SP prospect by Baseball America for a RP who has had mixed results in his MLB career and a good season this year. You’re comparing it to a trade where the Yankees got a RP with an extra year of service time and gave up a weaker prospect at the time. Then you suggest the Brewers should give up a 21 year old who has been one of the best SP in AA this season for a 2 month rental RP. These hypotheticals to me just show a significant misunderstanding of the Brewers roster and minor league system. Burnes, Woodruff, Lauer, Houser, and Miley are all set to be FA in the next 18 months and the Brewers are relatively thin on SP prospects in the upper levels of the minors. Suggesting the Brewers trade their 2 closest to the MLB SP prospects for RP is just a huge red flag not understanding the entire picture of the Brewers system. Meanwhile their top 6 bullpen arms are all Pre-Arb or Arb-1 this season meaning they are still affordable for at least another season.
  15. Someone in the game thread last night wanted to know the catch probability of the d’Arnaud double that deflected off Frelick’s glove. It was 75ft in 4.4 seconds with a catch probability of 5%. Frelick was a few inches away from having caught a 5% and 10% catch probability fly ball in his first 2 MLB games
  16. RP is probably the least pressing Brewers need at the moment. They have 6 very solid bullpen arms with Justin Wilson set to come off the IL shortly and Ashby potentially in the mix at some point in August as well. I’m absolutely not trading Robert Gasser or Carlos Rodriguez for RP as well lol.
  17. Brewers don’t need game changing to have a dramatic impact on the team. Brewers 1B have a 66 wRC+ which is worst in the MLB. Brewers DH have a 69 wRC+ which is also worst in the MLB. Brewers are also 22nd in HR. Upgrading to a league average bat with some pop at those 2 positions would be a dramatic improvement and could easily be a game changer for an offense as bad as ours.
  18. We literally just promoted a Top 100 prospect 2 days ago?? What moves are you expecting?? Zero trades have been made yet for the trade deadline.
  19. Does the AB have to be with the Brewers? Gennett made the All-Star game in Cincy and he was drafted and developed by us
  20. I mean we just DFA'd Tapia and selected Frelick yesterday. What is so different 2 days later?
  21. Bullpen went 29 straight innings scoreless. Can't continue to ask them to bail out our low scoring offense. It was bound to break eventually.
  22. Replay showed Frelick clearly yelling for the ball. Turang needs to give that up because OF always has priority on those plays.
