    At the point they commented that the Brewers as a team had a chase rate over 50%. That is certainly an anomaly
  2. Lucas O.
    Pretty sure they are talking about the Brewers swinging at pitches that aren't strikes
  3. Lucas O.
    Brewers have a 58% chase rate through 2 innings.
  4. Lucas O.
    Freddy as a SP in the postseason has a 5.11 ERA now.

    What's even more sad is he's only had RBI in 2 of his 24 playoff games as a Brewer. He hit a 2-run HR in game 1 of the NLDS in 2018 then had the HR in Game 7 of the NLCS in 2018. So he's had 1 RBI in his last 23 playoff games.

    He's in one of his classic Yelich ruts right now. 72% GB rate in the postseason. Back to rolling over everything

    Frelick in CF certainly opens the door to getting Bauers and Vaughn into the lineup. Might need to consider it with some RHP on the mound

    Brewers simply need a SP to give them 5 or 6 innings at some point. We have asked our bullpen to go 5+ innings in 5 straight postseason games and tonight the 2 runs the Dodgers scored were off 2 relievers whose stuff was not as good as it was in the Cubs series in Patrick and Uribe.
  9. Lucas O.
    I'm pretty worried that Uribe might have hit a wall after his super heavy usage during the regular season. His velo was way down today. Sinker was down 2mph and slider was down almost 3mph. If that's going to be the norm going forward then I don't know if you can look at him as a trustworthy arm.

    In the regular season, sure. Against a legit ace level pitcher in the postseason, sure. Just don’t think it makes much of a difference driving up the pitch count of pitchers like Boyd, Imanaga, or Taillon in the playoffs. None of those guys are going to have leashes that let them go deep into playoff starts. Taillon was pulled at 75 pitches yesterday and Boyd was pulled at 67 pitches today.

    Brewers have 3 positions players (Yelich, Vaughn, Contreras) that had started a road playoff game and 3 pitchers (Peralta, Quintana, Ashby) that had pitched in a road playoff game heading into these two games at Wrigley. Feel like the away crowd atmosphere might have messed with a lot of the guys.

    The fact Busch only got 2 AB today and one was against Koenig was great management from the Brewers. Cubs hottest hitter and you basically neutralized him with a bullpen game.
  13. Lucas O.
    Agree with this on Murphy’s management of Game 3. Honestly the only gripe I had was that he probably left Devin in too long. Letting Devin give up another run after the 3-run HR really sucked any hope you had left for that game. I hope that even if Megill is back that Murphy opts for going more by matchups rather than have a dedicated 9th inning guy. I don’t think any team in baseball has a combo of 2 LH (Ashby and Koenig) and 2 RH (Uribe and Megill) like the Brewers. Use that to our advantage and play matchups as best you can.

    Got a chuckle from this. Alejandro Kirk was thrown out at 1B on a hard hit liner to RF. Don’t see that very often.
  15. Lucas O.
    Awesome stuff Terry. Hopefully Letson can have a fully healthy 2026 season in Biloxi.

    His wrist was bothering him. Said it was nothing bad. Just was the difference between feeling 90% and 100%. Priester threw 158 innings in 2023 so he shouldn't have any innings limit issues this year.
  18. Lucas O.
    Just for fun. Magic number to clinch a playoff spot.

    Rob Zastryzny must have been down today then despite not pitching since the 24th.
  22. Lucas O.
    Turang's month is very comparable to Braun's July 2008. Turang - .354/.413/.707 with 9 HR and 23 RBI Braun - .366/.411/.752 with 9 HR and 23 RBI
  23. Lucas O.
    Don't know if it was mentioned in the thread but Brewers have a legit shot at having both the NL player and pitcher of the month in August with Turang and Peralta. Have they ever done that before?
  24. Lucas O.
    Think tasing Ashby would be pretty harsh. He gutted through an inning on a day he really had no business being available throwing 26 pitches in the process.
  25. Lucas O.
    My bigger issue with Ashby is he just shouldn't have been used today at all. Multi-inning reliever who had thrown 64 pitches in the last 4 days and that's what he looked like on the mound today. You'd figure Ashby would be down for the series now but I'm guessing he will be available on Sunday. Just need to hope that his body can hold up to this type of usage as losing Ashby would be a major blow to the pen.
