  1. 95% catch probability so you thought right. Chourio could a horrible jump and read and even still could have caught it he just whiffed it.
  2. I'd move Mears up a tier to possibly trade. Otherwise I pretty much completely agree, I'd also have a separate tier for Woodruff that's basically if he wants to be traded then trade him. If he doesn't then keep him. As for some fits, for Hoskins you have Texas, Kansas City, San Francisco, Seattle, Houston. All those teams are getting sub 100 wRC+ from 1B and DH combined this year. For the pitchers, pretty much every team could use a pitcher or two at the deadline so all of them could be fits.
  3. Ryan Jeffers had as many hard hit balls tonight as the entire Brewers team. Al Laboeuf...you're fired.
  4. The Rays are also 21-24. They have 7 wins when the opponent scores more than 3 runs.
  5. Here's an insane stat. It's May 17th and game 46 for the Brewers. The Brewers have won 2 games this season when our opponent scores more than 3 runs.
  6. They have 3 hitting coaches now not 2 and the lead hitting coach is 65 years old and has never been an MLB hitting coach before
  7. There's a lot of glue. Adames was a good clubhouse guy. Ueck when he was around always lightened the mood. Berry was a good energy guy. Rea and Miley were good clubhouse guys. Brewers lost a lot of good clubhouse people this offseason.
  8. Perks of hiring a competent hitting coach and not hiring your 65 year old buddy that's never been an MLB hitting coach
  9. Or the Brewers just suck. They are 28th in offensive xwOBA, 19th in pitcher xwOBA, and pretty average defensively.
  10. Pulling Myers at 72 pitches when you're basically guaranteed a loss is just so dumb
  11. I think the Brewers need to fire Al Laboeuf. So many of these hitters just look awful at the plate. Timing is off. Swing decisions are awful. This team needs a shock move and firing Laboeuf is the easiest one you have.
  12. Just really bad hitting in the first. Chourio and Yelich can't take advantage of middle-middle mistakes. Frelick watches strike 1 right down the middle then swings and pitch 2 dotted down and in.
  13. Can you forfeit minor league games? If not we might see like 5 innings of position players pitching today for Carolina
  14. I do wonder if Wande Torres might benefit from a demotion to the ACL. He's really struggled in Carolina and jumping straight from the DSL to A ball probably isn't the easiest for a pitcher.
  15. Yeah this is really bad. I don't even think Torres is going to get out of the 2nd inning.
  16. I have no clue how Carolina is going to get through these next two games pitcher wise. Wande looks set for a very short outing. I assume Welch will start tomorrow but there will be a lot of innings to eat tonight.
  17. He's small for a catcher just in terms of build. Most catcher's are a bit sturdier. Seems like he can make it work back there with more reps. Per his fangraphs scouting report he's popped sub 1.90 pop times so the arm is good.
  18. Not saying anything is wrong with the comments. Just saying it's bizarre that after making these comments last night that he moved Chourio back to the 2 hole after going 0-4 with 4 pretty awful strikeouts.
  19. There were quite a few. "It's perspective. Hey Jackson, look around. If you're going to hit in the middle of the order - he's done great, and this kid is not, quote, at his best an still putting up some pretty impressive figures, hitting balls hard - you've got to meet the game halfway" "You have a guy who can spot the baseball and scoot it over this much and make you swing at it every time, fly out to right, that's too simple. He's better than that. And he's got to see that. And maybe hitting a little lower will take the pressure off a little" "Trying to get him to understand the ball-strike thing a little better. When you're hitting in the top of the order and you're swinging at almost every pitch, it makes it hard to run in front of him. I'm not saying don't swing when it's a strike, but when you're leaving the zone, then that's it's hard to get your offense going" "When you're behind in the game, you can't leave the zone. Everybody comes into it saying 'Hey, we just don't have to throw him strikes, go above and go away and soft down'" "We saw some of this early last year, and he came out of it. So, hopefully he will. I don't know if he takes it too personal. He's a young man. We'll get it straightened out"
  20. His underlying data at AAA is pretty poor. I'd guess they think he has no chance against MLB pitching. For reference he has a 28% hard hit rate and 0% barrel rate this year.
  21. So Chourio is back in the 2 hole tonight after being moved to the 6 hole last night and having his second worst game of the season...just bizarre especially taking into consideration Murphy's comments. Who the heck is making the lineups for this team??
  22. Aidan Maldonado pitching for the first time in nearly 3 weeks and has thrown back to back 5 pitch walks.
