  1. Him transitioning to a pitcher really has nothing to do with it. I get you love to do the whole contrarian spiel but you're way off here. The Brewers did Erceg a solid because they didn't think he was good enough to be rostered at the end of the season. That showed pretty clearly to be a mis-evaluation of Erceg's talent considering Erceg immediately went to MLB and had good underlying numbers. It's a clear miss.
  2. I'm well aware of Erceg's history. Also you're underselling Erceg . He was good in AAA in 2022 then got off to a slow start in 2023. Him being a minor league FA is irrelevant because they could have added him to the 40 to prevent that from happening. It was just an evaluation miss same as with Shane Smith.
  3. I mean they traded away someone who had a really good season for someone that is already out of the org. Erceg I get the context but it was still a missed evaluation of his talent. They would have never traded him away if they thought he would be as good as he has been especially as quickly as he was.
  4. I mean yeah pretty easily. Good Acquisitions - Peguero, Payamps, Wilson, Megill, Patrick, Hudson, Civale, Mears, Anderson (so far) Bad trade away - Topa and Erceg The good has so far pretty heavily outweighed the bad in terms of good acquisitions and bad trade aways.
  5. I just realized today that Wisconsin has had a ridiculous schedule to start the season. All 27 of their games have been against the top 4 teams in the Midwest League so far this season. 9 vs Cedar Rapids who are 17-9 6 vs Quad Cities who are 18-8 6 vs Lansing who are 16-11 6 vs West Michigan who are 17-10 So while their 11-16 record isn't good the +1 run differential and schedule difficulty might mean they could go on a run here in May when their schedule softens up.
  6. Arnold's hit rate on trading for pitchers has been pretty good to this point so hopefully that continues.
  7. The close to back end Top 100 prospect for Yophery is not a consensus thing. Pipeline has him 11th in Boston's Top 30. Fangraphs has Yophery at a 40 FV grade.
  8. Daniel Corniel was placed on the full-season injured list. I'd guess that means elbow/shoulder surgery
  9. Zamora's underlying numbers are not good. I don't see him being able to hit MLB pitching. Monasterio - .244/.329/.449 expected slash, .338 xwOBA, 89.6 Avg EV, 38.5% hard hit, 12.8% barrel, 27.0% whiff Zamora - .217/.351/.269 expected slash, .294 xwOBA, 86.4 Avg EV, 14.3% hard hit, 0.0% barrel, 20.3% whiff Zamora's numbers are really bad. Just absolutely no pop in his bat.
  10. Thumb injury on his glove hand. Expected to be short term.
  11. A LHH OF is pretty much the last thing the Brewers need.
  12. The two least worked leverage arms didn't even throw today (Megill and Koenig) so the whole "people needed work" line falls pretty flat. A manager needs to be worried about 162 games not keeping a game that never looked competitive to a 4 run deficit.
  13. If Brewers lose tomorrow, it will be their third 4 game losing streak of the season. They had zero 4 game losing streaks in 2024.
  14. Murphy's bullpen management was not good last year but it has regressed to absolutely horrific this season. Call up a long reliever today to replace Yoho and instead you burn leverage arms and middle relief arms down 6-2.
  15. @Brock Beauchamp I don't know if you want to remove these names but Jorge Quintana, Christopher Acosta, Tanner Gillis, Matthew Wood, and Yerlin Rodriguez did not receive a single vote.

  17. So looking at the ACL roster we have 29 players active between 2024 holdovers and these additions. I put Hayden Robinson on long term IL even though he's currently listed as active just because he had TJ less than a year ago so it's hard to believe he's active. With 29 active players on the ACL roster that has my count at 156 of the 165 stateside slots being filled. This does include Ty Duvall on the Sounds Development List just because I'm not sure what to do with him. I wonder what's going on with Dylan O'Rae.
  18. I'm personally going with 15-13.
  19. Don't want to steal @RobDeer 45's thunder but with the Brewers playing at 1:10 tomorrow, thought this should get posted tonight. What are your May predictions? Here's how the schedule looks. 1 @ CWS 3 vs CHC 3 vs HOU 3 @ TB 3 @ CLE 3 vs MIN 3 vs BAL 4 @ PIT 3 vs BOS 2 @ PHI
  20. It really looks like they rushed Myers back too quickly. He just doesn't look good.
  21. Brewers didn’t lose 4 games in a row at all last season. This year they’ve lost 4 in a row two times in the first month. When you’re a team built to win on the margins and your bullpen stinks and your defense and baserunning have regressed, it’s difficult to win on the margins
  22. Murphy's decisions with pitching moves has frankly been extremely confusing this season. Seems like his logic on when to pull SP changes every game. Also he and the front office need to get on the same page with regards to Payamps. Murphy's refusal to use Payamps when up big or losing has potentially cost us games already and could have longterm implications if we burn out some other bullpen guys. Like tonight, Payamps absolutely should have pitched the 8th inning. We were down 3-2 with Helsley an elite closer coming in the 9th to face Collins, Capra, and Durbin. That's an extremely unlikely win even down just a run so Payamps needed to be the guy. Instead he used Anderson the day after overusing Anderson cost the Brewers a win because he was unavailable for the 8th inning and they had to use Alexander.
  23. Per Jeff Hem during the broadcast, Ernesto is dealing with a right thumb issue so I was woefully off thinking it was a right thigh issue. Though I got the correct side of the body haha
  24. Honestly who cares. Are you going to post after every single start? We get it. The Brewers messed up. This belongs in the MiLB alumni thread not constantly being posted on the main forum.
