  1. Absolutely. Love the Manfred runner in the regular season and I love even more that they ditch it in the postseason.
  2. That was simply incredible
  3. Adamczewski 1-3 with a 1B and BB today. His two batted balls were 106 and 108 EV.
  4. I think the only way we will get a salary cap passed is if team control is reduced or changed. Instead of 6+ years of full team control, maybe replace arbitration with restricted free agency. Think restricted free agency is a nice middle ground between players being able to get paid earlier and teams still maintaining team control. I'd also be down for term caps on contracts like the NHL and NBA have.
  5. Very strong day for the Surprise Brewers today. Adamczewski - 1-5 HR Adams - 1-2 2 BB O'Rae - 3-4 2B, SB Peterson - 2.2 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 SO Broca - 3 IP, 0 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 4 SO
  6. Last time the Brewers got a low slot LHP who most recently pitched for the Angels it worked out pretty well. How about round 2 this time?
  7. Devin will get much more money this offseason than the Brewers would ever pay a RP
  8. It started tailing off a bit. His velo peaked in August trended down in both September and October though the September drop off wasn't as extreme as the October drop off August - 99.0mph (this was his peak velo month) September - 98.3mph October - 97.3mph Slider saw something similar happen August - 87.6mph (this was his peak velo month) September - 86.2mph October - 85.3mph
  9. Yeah Uribe’s hardest sinker was 97.7mph in the NLCS compared to his season average of 98.7mph. His velo was down 2-3mph. I think it’s pretty safe to say Uribe just wore down because of overuse during the whole season. I mean the guy threw over 80 innings including the postseason I believe
  10. Durbin had a .973 OPS in the series. Are you really trying to pretend that isn’t really good? That was the second best OPS of anyone in the NLCS behind Ohtani.
  11. Murphy using Uribe every other game for 6 and a half months straight has finally worn him down. Uribe is clearly out of gas. His average sinker velo in the regular season was 98.7mph. The hardest sinker he's thrown in the NLCS is 97.7mph. His average velo is down over 2mph on both his sinker and slider in this series.
  12. With Muncy getting up there in age and the big Japanese posting this offseason being a 3B, we probably will see the Dodgers throw out a huge contract for him. It's just not the same sport that us and the Dodgers play.
  13. At the point they commented that the Brewers as a team had a chase rate over 50%. That is certainly an anomaly
  14. Pretty sure they are talking about the Brewers swinging at pitches that aren't strikes
  15. Brewers have a 58% chase rate through 2 innings.
  16. Freddy as a SP in the postseason has a 5.11 ERA now.
  17. 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.
  18. He's in one of his classic Yelich ruts right now. 72% GB rate in the postseason. Back to rolling over everything
  19. 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
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. 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.
  24. 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.
  25. 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.
