    Lara switch hits. Also Perkins has been solid against LHP both this year and in his career. People are getting way too down on him. He’s perfectly fine as a bench OF who is only going to get at bats against LHP going forward.

    I would venture it's partially that they don't want him to come up to sit (especially because he's not already on the 40) but also he's way overperforming his underlying numbers in AAA so far so they might also just not believe the production would translate to MLB. Nearly half of his batted balls this year have 0 or negative LA. Tonight he had 3 batted balls over 100 EV and every single one of them was negative LA.

    Judge honestly played that pretty poorly. I think if he gets behind the ball better that he guns Rengifo at home there.

    I came into this series just hoping not to be swept against the Yankees lineup with their big guys on the mound. Instead we are heading into Sunday with a chance for a sweep.
  5. Lucas O.
    Good call. I forgot the hit for Hamilton
  6. Lucas O.
    Ortiz should be coming in to pinch run for Rengifo here
  7. Lucas O.
    What the hell is Hill smoking. One of the dumbest plays I've ever seen
  8. Lucas O.
    Chourio shortened up big time there. Risky but it paid off!
  9. Lucas O.
    I didn't have any issue with that slider against McMahon. Just bad execution on Ashby. Should have been buried just like the pitch before.
  10. Lucas O.
    Just a bad pitch from Ashby 0-2.
  11. Lucas O.
    I really like this decision to walk Judge with 2 LHH up and Ashby on the mound.
  12. Lucas O.
    As soon as the pitcher goes out to start warming up for the inning they have to face at least one batter or complete their 3 batter minimum so they could have hit Ortiz there against the LHP
  13. Lucas O.
    Hamilton hitting against a LHP in the 8th inning down 1 run is a major indictment on the roster.
  14. Lucas O.
    Probably just a one time thing for now though he might head to the pen when Woodruff comes off the IL
  15. Lucas O.
    Rengifo honestly looks totally cooked to me. Just don't think he has anything left to offer MLB. Even when he has a good swing and connects he barely gets the ball to the warning track.
  16. Lucas O.
    Nobody. He said Mitchell needs to pick it up and I said Mitchell has a 115 wRC+ and he got upset about it and went off like everyone was saying Mitchell is perfect and has no flaws.
  17. Lucas O.
    Yeah seems pretty optimistic though Yelich doesn't seem like the type to do a rehab assignment so maybe it's not out of the realm of possibility.
  18. Lucas O.
    Murphy said Yelich might be back on this homestand.

    Historically speaking the Brewers have really struggled at developing the power over hit corner prospects. The Brewers have invested considerable money in these profiles the last 3 drafts (Wilken, Bitonti, Burke, Fischer). How do we feel the return on their investment has been so far? Personally speaking I'm not yet buying into the Brewers figuring out how to develop this profile based on the early results. Not sure I'd like seeing the Brewers tap back into that profile again this year.

    Just for comparison on how crazy different the offensive standard has been in the Southern League this year. David McCabe in 2025 - .286/.379/.434 for a 142 wRC+ Jesus Made in 2026 - .282/.371/.444 for a 113 wRC+ Virtually identical production between the two and McCabe was 42 percent better than league average while Made is only 13 percent better than league average.

    The minor league ball (AA and below) this year looks like it's a juiced ball situation. Typically this early in the year offensive numbers are down especially in the leagues that play further north like the Midwest League and International League but offense is way up relative to the full season a year ago. 2025 Southern League slash - .230/.321/.340 for a .660 OPS 2026 Southern League slash - .240/.345/.403 for a .748 OPS 2025 Midwest League slash - .237/.334/359 for a .693 OPS 2026 Midwest League slash - .244/.356/.397 for a 753 OPS 2025 Carolina League slash - .231/.335/.330 for a .665 OPS 2026 Carolina League slash - .236/.347/.375 for a .723 OPS

    The thing with Sal is the underlying numbers are on par because he's walking more and striking out less. The contact quality is down a bit this year. Specifically he's hitting way more ground balls than he ever has. He's at 56% GB-rate this year compared to 49% for his career and these extra ground balls have come almost exclusively at the cost of line drives where he's at 15% compared to a career average of 23%. Line drives are good especially for a hitter like Sal. Assuming that evens out, I think the production will start to improve.
  24. Lucas O.
    I'd love to see the swing that hit a pitch this far inside 100 EV
  25. Lucas O.
    ACL Padres clearly so tired of losing to the ACL Brewers that they had an MLB level guy throw a 3 inning rehab assignment in the ACL
