  1. Really hope Letson is starting today or it would be another week where he was listed as the SP on Saturday all week only to not actually pitch.
  2. I think that's ultimately what he's searching for. On paper his stuff in 2024 is as good as it's ever been, but he's struggled to find both consistency and results. I think he's trying to find what works best for him right now.
  3. Freddy is averaging the highest FB velo if his career this season. He just made an effort to pitch to contact last night
  4. Agreed. The thing with Ashby is that he's still only 18 months removed from shoulder surgery. Hopefully he can make as much progress in the next 6 months as he has in the last 6 months. If so, he very well could find himself on the opening day roster in 2025.
  5. He just made a concerted effort to pitch to contact tonight. Said so in the post game.
  6. Technically 1.5 back of the Dodgers because they have the tiebreaker over us. We also would need to sweep Philly in September to have a chance at the tiebreaker over them. Any loss would give them the tiebreaker, so I'd probably just consider it 1.5 and 2.5 games back.
  7. The fact it wasn't a bad pitch is kind of what scares me about Freddy this year. Even when he's executing pitches well he's managing to give up HR which is a scary proposition to think about for the playoffs.
  8. Some Craig Yoho viewing courtesy of Josh Norris of Baseball America. Get this dude into the MLB bullpen please.
  9. Yeah his velo is way up this year. He put a lot of work in where he trains in the offseason to focus more on creating velocity from his whole body and it's definitely worked.
  10. Hey if anyone wants a nice view of what could be coming to the Brewers bullpen in the next few weeks take a look at Craig Yoho courtesy of Josh Norris.
  11. Koenig just went 1-2-3 with 3 strikeouts against guys putting up these slash lines vs LHP this season. Noel - .250/.306/.750, 181 wRC+ Fry - .304/.459/.598, 192 wRC+ Kwan - .369/.426/.523, 172 wRC+
  12. Mitch White follows up his great start last week by not even getting out of the 1st inning today. That's a bummer.
  13. Personally I think the only lock is Henderson. I think there are arguments for others like Patrick and Smith, but the 40-man is going to be tight this offseason especially if Yoho and/or Misiorowski get added to the 40 for the stretch run.
  14. The fact Mears after tonight has a 4.46 FIP with a 37.5% HR/FB rate is pretty crazy. The 40% K-BB% will definitely do that for you. Such nasty stuff. If he keeps the ball in the park, I think he could be a mainstay among the high leverage arms the next few years.
  15. He's definitely getting pitches to hit. At least today he did. AB1 - hanging slider right down the middle on a 1-1 count AB2 - 2 middle-middle FB in the AB, hit a soft line drive single off the 2nd AB3 - get me over curveball pitch 1 that was a can of corn in LF AB4 - 2 straight sliders that caught a good chunk of the plate
  16. Also totally agree on Mitchell. Some of his best AB all season. Even that 1st AB strikeout was really nice where he was able to foul off 2 98mph pitches at the top of the zone and an 89mph changeup on the outer black.
  17. While I agree he needs more time, that time needs to be out of the 3 hole in the lineup. But I can't blame anyone for being discouraged. He's a 24 year old Top 100 prospect who is a bat first prospect that has just been totally overmatched in his first 51 PA.
  18. Think if that wasn't 3 times in 4 and 4 times in 6 for Mears that he would have come back out for the 9th. Plus they probably want to be careful with his usage with him already being at his career high in IP from 2019.
  19. Mears inning tonight was about as dominant you'll see. 8 pitches, 6 strikes. 4 swings, 4 whiffs. 2 called strikes. The Cleveland hitters couldn't touch him. He now has a 42.9% K-rate in his short time as a Brewer.
  20. The Brewers could set up a just disgustingly lights out bullpen in September. 9th - Williams 8th - Megill 7th - Payamps Middle inning monsters - Mears, Yoho, Misiorowski LHP - Hudson, Koenig Swingman - Hall Phantom IL/DFA - Ross, Wilson, Milner, Paredes AAA - Peguero
  21. In 401 career games, this was only the 10th where he didn't reach base safely with 5 or more PA. Pretty special to shut him down like that!
  22. Tyler Black flashing that big pop that got him placed in the 3 hole today. 82, 78, 82 EV on his 3 batted balls. Big power!
  23. I'm just glad Seymour isn't in AA terrorizing Biloxi anymore. He's the new Elko to the Brewers minor league affiliates.
  24. That unfortunately spiraled so quickly. Such a fluke double as well. Soft fly ball that barely stayed fair down the LF line.
  25. Should say it's more been control than command tonight with his pitches being pretty well located in the zone, but lots of very wild misses.
