    I think equating what Braun did to what Machado did is a bit extreme. Braun cheated and lied about cheating throwing out ridiculous accusations then got caught cheating again. Machado dragged his back foot kicking Aguilar in the ankle. It was overblown at the time and the fact people still act like he tried to kill Aguilar is wild.

    Ashby just doesn't have anywhere near good enough command to be a SP. He's in the right role as a multi-inning type leverage reliever.

    I like all three of these things especially the Division Series bumping up to 7 games.

    X-factor for the series in my opinion is Brice Turang. We need this guy to start swinging the bat again.

    You're right but the Yankees were also in the ALCS two years ago. The ALCS this year is Tampa vs Cleveland/Chicago. Maybe that changes things?

    I'm just guessing but I think I'd be surprised if they didn't have the late slot on Monday. I'm guessing they want the Dodgers in the primetime slots.

    I mean I think that's fair. The context of the catch was far more impressive than the actual catch. He barely had to jump and it's not like he was sprinting into the wall. He was kind of set up before the ball got there.

    Statcast numbers have been delayed all postseason. The non-statcast numbers are all accurate. Here are the statcast numbers through 4 games courtesy of baseball savant. .260 xBA (1st) .387 xSLG (4th) .327 xwOBA (3rd) 91.3 Avg EV (3rd) 46.7% Hard Hit (1st)

    Those statcast numbers are through game 3 FYI

    The Brewers are pretty clearly better this year from a pitching perspective than they were a year ago. 2026 Misiorowski > 2025 Misiorowski 2026 Henderson > 2025 Freddy 2026 Gasser > 2025 Quintana Chourio has two hamstrings this year. Mitchell is healthy this year.

    This is very normal. Do you not remember the discourse back in 2024 about Devin Williams potentially tipping pitches and the Mets catching onto it?

    Honestly I think it was shameful of the broadcast and post game show to act like that was definitively going to be a HR if it didn’t hit the roof. Maybe it would have (I personally think it’s either a fly out or foul ball) but there’s no way anyone definitively knows.

    Bauers says this team is different and has a different belief among them and I'm right there with him. This team is clearly better than the Padres. Go out there and take care of business and win the series.
  14. wiguy94
    I'd hardly agree with that because Uribe was hurt and unavailable in that series. In game 3 May turned the game over to the bullpen in the 8th inning with a 1 run lead and Chad Patrick came into pitch.
  15. wiguy94
    I think I read something about Johnson that he had a pretty unique between start routine that he’d been doing his whole career as a pitcher and Maddux made him ditch it and do things the way Maddux wanted. After Maddux was fired Johnson went back to doing what he was comfortable doing. Sometimes you need to just let guys be themselves.

    Here's a comparison between the Padres top 3 relievers (Miller, Morejon, Rodriguez) and Brewers top 3 relievers (Megill, Uribe, Ashby). Think Padres top 3 are clearly better but the Brewers are pretty dang good themselves.
  17. wiguy94
    Isn't that kind of Bregman? I know he is pretty well regarded as a great clubhouse guy.
  18. wiguy94
    I don't know if this is sarcasm or not but the Angels pitching took off after he was fired including Detmers. Team Numbers With Maddux - 4.51 ERA, 4.34 xERA, 4.30 FIP, 4.29 xFIP Post Maddux - 3.73 ERA, 3.82 xERA, 3.50 FIP, 3.83 xFIP Detmers With Maddux - 4.00 ERA, 3.50 xERA, 3.47 FIP, 3.60 xFIP Post Maddux - 1.62 ERA, 2.70 xERA, 1.78 FIP, 2.74 xFIP Urena With Maddux - 2.83 ERA, 3.40 xERA, 3.82 FIP, 4.30 xFIP Post Maddux - 3.28 ERA, 3.05 xERA, 3.19 FIP, 3.17 xFIP Rodriguez With Maddux - 7.20 ERA, 6.84 xERA, 5.10 FIP, 4.79 xFIP Post Maddux - 4.53 ERA, 4.41 xERA, 4.89 FIP, 4.39 xFIP Johnson With Maddux - 6.71 ERA, 5.58 xERA, 6.48 FIP, 5.48 xFIP Post Maddux - 3.00 ERA, 3.96 xERA, 3.92 FIP, 4.85 xFIP

    I'm already mentally preparing for the backlash in game 2 of the NLDS when Ortiz is on the bench because Michael King is starting.
  20. wiguy94
    Oh I think the second inning was totally fine. I was more talking about the play it by ear potentially sending him out for the 9th inning as well.
  21. wiguy94
    Yeah that just seems silly especially because he's largely been a single inning guy this year. It's one thing for the White Sox to do that with Grant Taylor who has been used in a multi-inning role this year and it's a totally different thing to do it with a single inning guy. Definitely a sign of Mattingly being an old school by the gut type of guy.
  22. wiguy94
    I don't think Mattingly had any intention of having Duran getting a three inning save. Maybe he said differently after the game and if he did I agree he definitely was out of his mind. Pretty sure Boylan was warming in the 8th but this is a guy who hasn't pitched in a game since 9/17 because of a groin injury so who knows if he is truly 100%. It didn't work out and unfortunately for the Phillies that's the type of move that can essentially kill your chances of winning the series considering you need to win the next two games now and it feels unlikely that Duran is going to be able to pitch in both of those games.
  23. wiguy94
    Yeah if you can't beat the Padres then you were going to stand no chance against the Dodgers so it never really meant much to me.
  24. wiguy94
    This is a solid point. Brewers offense looked pretty good against the Cubs pitching last year and then had a rough transition to the Dodgers pitching.
  25. wiguy94
    He did hit 2 HR in the game in Tampa but this is his first night game since he got hit.
