    Carlos Rodriguez? He's been terrible to start the year.

    18 year old Manuel Rodriguez is starting for Carolina tonight. Really curious to see what he looks like as his numbers in both the DSL and ACL have been pretty pedestrian the last 2 season.

    You’re mixing Kevin up with Jimmy. Jimmy is the side armer.

    They could want to give Tobias Myers a try next time through the rotation.

    Here’s Herget’s pitch info from this year. High spin guy. Velo below average. It’s listed as a FB, but the movement really looks like a sinker, so Brewers probably had him ditch the FB and start throwing a sinker. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/statcast-search-minors?hfPT=&hfAB=&hfGT=R|&hfPR=&hfZ=&hfStadium=&hfBBL=&hfNewZones=&hfPull=&hfC=&hfSea=2024|&hfSit=&player_type=pitcher&hfOuts=&hfOpponent=&pitcher_throws=&batter_stands=&hfSA=&game_date_gt=&game_date_lt=&hfMo=&hfTeam=&home_road=&hfRO=&position=&hfInn=&hfBBT=&hfFlag=&hfLevel=&pitchers_lookup[]=623474&metric_1=&hfTeamAffiliate=&hfOpponentAffiliate=&group_by=pitch-type&min_pitches=0&min_results=0&min_pas=0&sort_col=pitches&player_event_sort=api_p_release_speed&sort_order=desc&chk_tracked_pitch=on&chk_stats_api_break_z_with_gravity=on&chk_stats_api_break_x_arm=on&chk_stats_api_break_z_induced=on&chk_stats_velocity=on&chk_stats_spin_rate=on&chk_stats_release_extension=on#results

    Looks like it was a non-guaranteed deal so Mets only paid him $54K for the 4 days he was on the roster

    It's not just pitchers either. You have high school age position players getting TJ now because they have been playing baseball year round for like a decade by the time they are 18 years old.
  8. wiguy94
    So you're on a Brewers fan forum bragging about not being a Brewers fan anymore? That's a bit confusing.
  9. wiguy94
    Yeah he’s been in my Top 30 for over half a year now which is probably bold for a guy who had average looking numbers in A+ last season. He’s just flashed really good stuff at times and I love his size/build. I also had him pegged as a guy with more untapped potential compared to most players his age because he played 4 years of JuCo which gave him a bit of a boost as well.

    I doubt they send Ashby down until Junis is back in the rotation. With 39 games in 41 days they seem likely to keep a 6-man rotation.

    Woessner definitely built off his impressive big league camp. Sucks that Biloxi didn't use a CF camera so we didn't get much of a view to watch. 6 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 8 SO. We had noted last year that Woessner while inconsistent had games where he was just dominant. Reminded me of Woodruff and Burnes on the mound. Excited to see if he can keep the velo up this year and stay consistent.

    He should have just used Vieira. Vieira was the guy he had warming up when it was 4-0. 4-0 down we had a win probability of 4%. 4-3 down we had a win probability of 17%. Murphy needs to just use our depth relievers when we are losing especially with a bunch of pitcher injuries and 39 games in 41 days. Instead of using 2 RP tonight we used 3 and warmed up another.
  14. wiguy94
    I do feel like Wilson will come around. His stuff has been better this year. He was honestly pretty filthy tonight and outside of a hanging curveball was lights out. Milner on the other hand has me worried. Guys just seem to be teeing off on him even when he makes his pitches. Both the HR hit against him this year were on pitches he executed well but guys still smoked them.
  15. wiguy94
    They for whatever reason light off fireworks for every HR even when the roof is closed. The haze doesn’t impact the players but it absolutely lowers the picture quality for those watching on TV
  16. wiguy94
    Murphy had Vieira up and warming for the 9th when we came to bat in the 8th. We entered the 9th still losing. Why he decided to use Milner instead of Vieira there makes very little sense. Then to compound things he burns another RP instead of letting Milner face Rodriguez with us losing by 2. The same manager that let Bryan Hudson face Rodriguez in a high leverage spot yesterday. Instead of just having Hall, Wilson, and Vieira pitch we had Hall, Wilson, Milner, and Bukauskas pitch with Vieira having warmed up. I really don’t feel great about Murphy keeping the bullpen fresh over the entire season.

    The pitch clock likely has some impact, but there’s so many reasons pitcher injuries seem more frequent. 1. Velo and spin rates are at all time highs 2. Pitch clock reduces recovery time 3. Single sport specialization is far more common now so pitchers have more wear and tear on their arms pitching year round before they go pro Throwing a baseball is not a natural movement the body should make so when you combine higher effort/torque, less recovery time, and more accumulated wear and tear you’re going to see more injuries.

    Pretty sure he's just starting the year in the ACL. Have to keep in mind he was really young for his draft class. He didn't turn 18 until November 17th last year. Cooper Pratt turned 19 on August 18th last year so he's almost 15 months older than Bitonti.
  19. wiguy94
    Yes he’s on Wisconsin’s IL right now
  20. wiguy94
    Kind of funny that his ball/strike calling in that game was actually really good.
  21. wiguy94
    While the results haven’t been there he’s absolutely smoking the ball this year. 9 of his 20 batted balls have EV over 100. He needs to start elevating them, but nice to see he’s making lots of loud contact even with the poor slash line.
  22. wiguy94
    I am right there with you in not liking it. I don't have much if any faith in Ashby putting up a good start with his velo still in the 92-93 range.
  23. wiguy94
    The issue is who else are you using? Miley and Gasser are injured. Blalock and Junk are the only other stretched guys on the 40-man roster
  24. wiguy94
    The offense was average in 2021. They got cold in September though and that carried over to the playoffs.
  25. wiguy94
    You’re misremembering what actually happened in 2022. The offense was the strength of that team. The SP and bullpen were major letdowns.
