  1. Didn’t really know where to post this so just doing it here. The Padres use of Hader is so confusing to me. They asked Robert Sanchez to go 5 outs today between 7th and 8th and he ran into issues in the 8th. Bases loaded in a 4-4 game with a LHH up and they don’t go to Hader for a 5 out save. And yeah I get Hader doesn’t pitch more than 1 inning but he’s pitched 2 times for 1.2 innings in the month of August. They are barely hanging on in the wild card race and Hader can’t go 5 outs for his 3rd time pitching in 13 days? Stuff like this really makes me not miss Hader all that much.
  2. He doesn't need his innings managed. He threw 137 innings last season and this year is at 107 with with 6-7 more starts which will put him in the 140 to 150 IP range which is an acceptable jump.
  3. He's been pretty terrible in AAA so far. Seems to really be battling his swing even dating back to his last week in AA. His Avg LA on his 19 batted balls in AAA is -8.8 which is absolutely horrendous.
  4. Yeah if Williams was going to be used Payamps would have been warming to come in for the 8th
  5. That's just brutal from Contreras. 3 very hittable pitches and he was totally overmatched. Him and Yelich both slumping at the same time is not ideal.
  6. Uneasy feeling about this game. Freddy's command just has not been on point. Feel like he's bound to run into some struggles at some point over the next 2 innings.
  7. Not an ideal start. Cease was catching a lot of the plate that inning and all our offense had to show for it was 3 weakly hit ground balls.
  8. Ah yes the trade that netted us 1 playoff win. Surprised you're out here celebrating a wild card birth and 1 playoff win. HaNg ThE wIlD cArD bAnNeR
  9. He definitely does have a plus to double plus FB and it's gotten better since 2020 not worse. Avg velo is 94.2 but when you factor in his 100th percentile extension the perceived velo is 96.5 which is good FB velo. His FB VAA is -4.3 degrees which is borderline elite VAA. His FB IVB is 17.1 inches which is good IVB His FB H-Mov is -10.4 which is very good H-mov. So the total package is good velo when factoring in extension, borderline elite VAA, good IVB, and very good H-Mov. That's easily a plus pitch. 2020 and 2021 his FB had a run value of -4. 2022 and 2023 his FB has a run value of +13. Taking off some velo but adding extension has improved his FB command while not impacting the perceived velo or movement profile.
  10. Sad seeing people with nothing to argue on but feelings resort to all this bad faith.
  11. Now show me where I said what you said I did. Give it up. This bad faith arguing has to be tiresome even for you at this point.
  12. Exactly. 2018 - Young guys were all breaking in and not established SP 2019 - Young guys still establishing themselves, Burnes with a horrible year 2020 - COVID shortened season 2021 - Burnes, Woodruff, Freddy were all elite. Lauer and Houser were elite for 4/5 SP. Anderson was a quality 6th SP. Unfortunately offense went cold in September and October 2022 - Burnes, Woodruff were great. Freddy and Houser were both injured a lot. Lauer was solid. Ashby was alright trying to establish himself as a SP. Alexander was horrible. 2023 - Burnes has been good not great. Freddy has been average not good. Woodruff on IL most of season. Lauer in AAA. Houser injured and bouncing between pen and rotation. Outside of 2021 this generational pitching staff hasn't been generational.
  13. Absolutely nobody said "Robert Gasser is going to make us forget Burnes and Ashby is the new Woodruff"...you're just making things up which again is a gigantic bad faith red flag.
  14. Using NL for 18, 19, 21 because no universal DH 2018 NL SP Ranks - 7th in ERA, 12th in FIP 2019 NL SP Ranks - 9th in ERA, 10th in FIP 2021 NL SP Ranks - 2nd in ERA, 1st in FIP 2022 MLB SP Ranks - 12th in ERA, 11th in FIP 2023 MLB SP Ranks - 11th in ERA, 18th in FIP So please Jopal tell me again how the Brewers have won on the back of SP in this competitive window.
  15. And yet he wasn't traded. Gauging the market =/= on the market.
  16. The fact you keep bringing up Small is a huge bad faith red flag and a reason why nobody should take your comments on this topic seriously.
  17. The Brewers won in 2021 because of their SP. Outside of 2021 they have not won on the back of their SP. You have been told his about 100 times at this point and you continue to spew the misinformation. I wonder why.
  18. He's been the best shutdown RP in the MLB since 2020 and unlike a lot of RP he has 2 amazing pitches not 1. Like Emmanuel Clase had the same ERA- and FIP- as DW since 2020 coming into today (both tied for 1st) but he had his 9th blown save of the year today. DW has 8 blown saves in his career. He's been simply as dependable as it gets.
  19. Devin Williams really makes me question my "don't pay RP" motto. He's simply the best RP in the MLB. Just hard for me to see him ever run into sustained issues when a plus to double plus FB and an 80 grade changeup/screwball. It's probably way too late to sign him to an extension but man I wish we had.
  20. If by "nobody has anwswered my question" you meant "people have answered but I just don't like the answer" your comment would be more accurate.
  21. Also forgetting Ashby who has a 3.95 FIP, 3.24 xFIP, and 3.59 xERA in his career so far and is under a bunch of team control.
  22. Crazy how the Brewers will have no pitching in 2 years. Absolutely none.
  23. Good execution from Williams. Bad pitch call from Contreras. Moncada just had a silly looking swing against the changeup. No need to go FB after that.
  24. He went 5 IP with 85 pitches last start. Don't see why he would need to throw fewer pitches this outing.
