    His command/control unfortunately remain subpar especially with his FB (13% zone rate tonight on the FB), but that changeup is stifling the Durham lineup. Heavy changeup usage. 14 swings against it with 11 whiffs. Probably the best his changeup has looked this year.

    Speaking of the Biloxi bullpen, they are about to get stronger with Blake Holub being sent back to Biloxi again. He’s clearly shown that he’s too good for AA, so I’m a bit bummed for him.

    Don't know where Biloxi would be without him this month with Wilken slumping big time.

    Another cool Jackson Chourio stat. He has an xwOBA and wOBA above .300 against fastballs, breaking balls, and off speed pitches so he has shown an ability to hit everything. Chourio has seen 8 different pitches over 30 times this season. Of those 8 pitches he only has a negative run value against 2 pitches. Four seamers and splitters and both of those are at -1 run value. He does have a .345 wOBA and .344 xwOBA against four seamers, so he still hits that pitch really well.

    I mentioned over on BCB today that August has really seemed like the month where he's kind of figured out what he wants to be as an MLB hitter in terms of contact/power balance. By far his best month when it comes to power metrics. His launch angle is 10 in August compared to a previous month high of 7 in April. His barrel rate is at 13.6% compared to a previous high of 7.7% in April. His hard hit rate is at 56.8% compared to a previous high of 48.6% in July. His xSLG is at .597 compared to a previous high of .507 in July. His xISO is at .238 compared to a previous high of .178 in July.

    Someone needs to unplug DSL Brewers 1 and plug them back in again.

    Craig Yoho was placed on the inactive list because he's officially a dad! Congrats to him and his wife. They posted a picture of their new baby girl on instagram.

    That's such a hilarious cycle. Flyball of the top of the wall with a crazy bounce for the triple, infield bloop single, and double that the RF dove for and bounced out of his glove. Good for him!
  11. wiguy94
    Yeah he topped out at 100.1 today

    It's a game thread. I feel like this is exactly where people can come and say a bunch of hot takes in the moment because they are talking about the game and not in general. Today during the game I said Sal Frelick sucks. Do I think that's true? Not really (sometimes I do though haha) but in the moment of the game where he hit an infield fly trying to do the butcher boy play and in combo with his other terrible AB in the series I said he sucks. That's just normal fan behavior. It's when the negativity and hot takes leave the game thread where things get annoying.

    Well that puts a huge damper on a fun day.
  14. wiguy94
    Yeah I think that goes to show the Dodgers as a team have better approaches. The fact they chase basically the same amount we do while swinging at pitches in the zone comfortably more is seriously impressive. 1 is elite swing decisions the other is borderline passive over patient.

    This Jackson Chourio kid has been pretty good his last 200 PA
  16. wiguy94
    Chourio's 8th inning double is new the hardest hit ball in his career at 111.6 EV breaking his previous record of 111.2. A 20 year old hit a ball 111.6 mph leading off the 8th inning down 1 run against the LA Dodgers closer. Incredible.
  17. wiguy94
    Any chance you have zone swing rates? Feel like that's one where we might lag behind the Dodgers
  18. wiguy94
    This Devin Williams guy is pretty darn good!

    It's not a silly narrative. Peguero has allowed 64% of inherited runners to score this season and has been terrible against RHH this season yet Murphy continues to bring him in to face RHH with runners on base.
  20. wiguy94
    Yupp. If you're pitching path involves Peguero potentially coming in mid 6th inning just let him start the inning.
  21. wiguy94
    Pat Murphy when it comes to putting a RP in leverage spots against RHH whose numbers are the following against RHH - .262/.373/.374, 17% K-rate, 14% BB-rate, 1.62 WHIP.
  22. wiguy94
    They need to get Peguero off the damn roster so Murphy stops letting him come in during these crazy leverage situations and give up runs.
  23. wiguy94
    More gaslighting.
  24. wiguy94
    I think Haase has been DFA'd and outrighted before. If so I believe he could elect FA if he was outrighted a second time, but I'm a bit fuzzy on those rules.
  25. wiguy94
    Yeah his FB is a very underrated pitch by the fanbase. It's a very good pitch in its own right (that he's gotten quite good at commanding over the years btw) and when you factor in guys need to be focusing on his changeup it plays even more up. He's just got a plus FB that plays double plus because of the changeup and an 80 grade changeup. Just for comparison's sake. Yoho's changeup that everyone has been raving about has the same horizontal movement and 6-7 more inches of vertical movement despite throwing his changeup 6-7 mph slower than DW. DW's changeup is and will forever be a circus pitch. That combo of spin, velo, movement out of a RHP hand just shouldn't be possible.
