    If we want to talk tangible reasons Hiura might not have gotten the call look no further than his chase and whiff rates before August (August numbers aren’t updated but will probably stay pretty similar as his K rate and swinging strike rates have actually jumped up this month) Before August he had a 32.7% chase rate and 30.3% whiff rate. Those would both be 23rd percentile in the MLB which wouldn’t be entirely problematic if he could maintain those rates in the MLB. The issue is those rates always spike in the MLB as the quality of pitchers is night and day compared to AAA.

    Are you sure about that? Seems pretty cyclical to me. Here’s the order. 1. Hiura has a good game 2. You post about his good game and how insane it is that Hiura isn’t a Brewer 3. Someone talks about his AAA numbers being irrelevant because he’s always hit there 4. You bring up his 2022 MLB numbers as a counter argument 5. Someone argues about the unsustainability of his 2022 numbers 6. Argument eventually fades until another good Hiura game then back to #1.

    Jesus Chirinos with a solo HR to open the bottom of the 9th. We have ourselves a tie game!

    Blayberg Diaz gives and Blayberg Diaz takes. After a huge CS earlier in the 9th he has a throwing error throwing down to 2B with runners on the corner and 2 outs and Columbia takes the 6-5 lead. Another blown lead by the Carolina bullpen. Lynchburg won earlier today, so if Carolina can't come back from down 6-5 the division lead will move down to 1 game.

    Yerlin has faced 4 batters and hasn't pitched an out. 3 singles and a BB. It's looking bleak in Carolina right now.
  6. wiguy94
    And the save has been blown. Big shoutout to Blayberg Diaz for a huge CS or the Mudcats would be in serious jeopardy of going down.

    Game 2 of the Mudcats series and I'm already ready to be done facing this Trevor Werner dude on Columbia. He's 5-7 in the series with 1 2B, 3 HR, and a BB.

    I don't know why this thread hasn't been locked. It's 23 pages of the same argument over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

    I'd be curious to hear who your top 5 1B this year are if Alonso isn't one of them.
  10. wiguy94
    Mudcats get the lead back in the bottom half. O'Rae BB and SB, Guilarte 1B and SB, Chirinos BB, Adams 1B, Areinamo 1B, Avina 2B. Mudcats up 5-2 after 1.
  11. wiguy94
    Mudcats going to have to come from behind to win again today. Down 2-0 before they even come to bat.

    Looked rough there on that play but he's been a great OF at all 3 positions in his career. LF - 376 innings, 3 DRS, 9.3 UZR/150, 4 OAA CF - 849 innings, 8 DRS, 4.2 UZR/150, 6 OAA RF - 692 innings, 5 DRS, 14.9 UZR/150, 4 OAA Overall - 1918 innings, 16 DRS, 8.4 UZR/150, 14 OAA

    Just need Yelich to start hitting again now. He's had a very rough month.
  14. wiguy94
    Alonso's wRC+ is 21 points higher than Carter's was in 2016 it's not remotely comparable production.
  15. wiguy94
    He had hit 5 years service time so optioning him wasn't really on the table.
  16. wiguy94
    2016 Carter - 644 PA, 113 wRC+, 1.8 fWAR 2023 Alonso - 505 PA, 134 wRC+, 2.9 fWAR Not even remotely comparable production.
  17. wiguy94
    The fact they have like 4 players who have played every game this season makes me at least somewhat hopeful they will still have good lineups in the 2nd to last series of the season. I imagine those 4 guys all want to play every game this year.
  18. wiguy94
    Will Atlanta have to worry about setting up their rotation for the playoffs? Regular season ends on 10/1. NLDS starts on 10/7 which is a full 5 days off. I don’t think they would need to do that. I think a better way of looking at the schedule comparison is by number of series left against potential playoff teams/not playoff teams rather than win%. Cubs have 7 series vs potential playoff teams and 4 vs not playoff teams. Brewers have 5 series vs potential playoff teams and 6 series vs not playoff teams.

    Stroman missing even more time is pretty huge. Every start Steele is setting a new career high in IP. Wonder if he can maintain this level the further he gets over his previous career high in IP. Hendricks has been a steady mid rotation starter. Taillon and Smyly haven’t been good. Assad’s underlying numbers are horrible. They really need that offense to continue playing lights out the rest of this year and so many guys on that team are screaming for regression.

    Gorgeous bomb. 105 EV, 422ft bomb....but it was off old friend Daniel Robertson position player on the mound.
  21. wiguy94
    Oh boy Calzadilla comes in and gives up a 3-run HR to the 1st hitter he faced. 7-0 Columbia with still only 1 out in the 1st.
  22. wiguy94
    Not the ideal start for Carolina who have seen their 2nd half division lead trickle to just 2.0 games. Vallecillo doesn't make it out of the 1st inning. 0.1 IP, 2 H, 4 ER, 3 BB, 1 SO, 1 HBP with runners on 2nd and 3rd when he was pulled.
  23. wiguy94
    So no you don't. You have no clue the quality of contact against and especially not if the contact was soft or hard.
  24. wiguy94
    Do you have any tangible proof of this? I’m not aware of anywhere that has public batted ball data like that for DSL.
  25. wiguy94
    Wow this made me look at team splits vs LHP and the Brewers are all the way at 19th with a 94 wRC+ vs LHP. I didn’t even realize we were hitting LHP better than RHP this season.
