    Cardinals losing 10-3 to the Reds in the top of the 9th. The Cardinals active pitching staff has just 4 pitchers with an ERA under 4.00

    Biloxi have the third most runs in the Southern League despite being by far the youngest positional squad in the league...

    Second time on the IL for him this season. That's a bummer because he's been absolutely fantastic.

    Houser rattling off good starts with him actually using his FB up in the zone consistently? Who would have guessed? Now someone needs to relay this message to Corbin Burnes so he can start utilizing the top of the zone and dominating again.

    That Rowdy error really hurt. There's a chance that whole inning goes differently if Houser has 2 outs against Bregman. Also it's a lot easier to let pitchers pitch deep into games when you have bigger than a 1-2 run lead so the offense performing better would help as well.

    Rowdy/Ruf DH platoon. Contreras - C Miller - 1B Turang - 2B Urias - 3B Adames - SS Yelich - LF Wiemer - CF Anderson - RF With Caratini, Brosseau, Taylor, Ruf on the bench. Honestly might be our strongest team at the moment.

    Mid-week promotion. Don't see those very often anymore unless this was just announced late.

    His baseball savant page is rough to look at. That 2.89 ERA is major fools gold and hopefully the Brewers regress Bielak’s ERA to the mean today.

    Houser’s FB is nothing special compared to other FB around the league but it allows his other stuff to play better and makes him a bit more unpredictable for the hitter. Burnes absolutely needs to take notice, but I think that’s mostly a lost cause at this point. Even if you go back to 18/19 when Burnes primary FB was a 4 seamer, he wasn’t throwing it up in zone at all. For whatever reason he hates pitching up in the zone and it’s been 6 different seasons worth of him not pitching up. Really just seems like a lost cause.

    Guessing CC was planning on using Taylor as a defensive substitution in the 9th and didn't want to eat the DH to do it. Pinch running for Tellez just shifted Miller to 1B and Anderson to 3B whereas for Winker it would have lost the DH.

    He's had a special game today. Loud contact in all his AB and he's been flashing the glove tonight. Has looked like a future GG out there tonight.

    AA season is split into 2 halves. Enhanced ball is being used the entire first half. Then the AAA/MLB ball in the second half. Believe the halfway point is the last week in June?
  13. wiguy94
    He may be making adjustments to his mechanics to try and get his command up but he’s made zero adjustments in what he is throwing and where he is throwing it. His stuff still grades out strongly but he’s just not fooling people close to as much as he used to. Contact rates up both in zone and out of zone. Whiff rates down. I think MLB hitters are just too good for Burnes to get away with avoiding the top of the zone like the plague especially with his command being down.

    Since the All-Star break last season, Corbin Burnes has made 25 starts. He has 145 IP with a 96 ERA- and 96 FIP-. He’s basically been a slightly above league average pitcher for almost an entire season’s worth of starts at this point.
  15. wiguy94
    I don't think it's anything to do with the pitch clock. The book is just out on him and he's doing absolutely nothing to adjust. The guy had a 3.97 ERA post trade deadline last season and his ERA this season is also 3.97, so I don't know how people can blame the pitch clock.
  16. wiguy94
    Probably less tipping pitches and more he just refuses to pitch the ball up in the zone. Hitters can just focus on the lower half of the zone so when Burnes with his shaky command leaks one over the middle of the plate it's just getting crushed. He's already given up more HR this year than he did in his Cy Young winning season and it's not even freaking June yet lol

    Ride the hot hand with Miller. 1. Miller 2. Yelich 3. Adames 4. Tellez 5. Contreras 6. Anderson 7. Winker 8. Taylor 9. Turang

    10 times out of 10 I would say it would make more sense to do a brief retool than to trade away some higher level prospects in an attempt to help this years team.

    I'm sorry..right shoulder??

    Varland, Guerra, and Bush are seriously dragging down the team bullpen numbers. 2 of them are DFA'd and the other is on the IL with no known timetable for return so I think the overall bullpen number is pretty misleading. Our current 8-man pen has a 2.71 ERA, 3.71 xERA, and 3.67 FIP. The xERA and FIP are weighted by IP so this isn't just a raw average.
  21. wiguy94
    Last year DW and Hader combined for 44 saves and 4 blown saves. The rest of the pen combined for 8 saves and 25 blown saves. In 2021 Hader had 34 saves and 1 blown save. The rest of the pen had 10 saves and 26 blown saves. What you’re talking about happens basically every single season.
  22. wiguy94
    I’m guessing that 1 in 16 chances isn’t correct. You don’t need to be pitching the 9th inning to get a BS. If the 7th inning pitched blows the 1-3 run lead then it’s considered a BS so I’m guessing most of those 15 are situations like that not blowing actual 9th inning save situations.
  23. wiguy94
    Yeah I would agree. When I stream the games I have Biloxi/Nashville on one side of the screen with both muted. On the other side of the screen I have Wisconsin/Carolina and whichever stream I don't have on the screen at the moment is playing the audio. I'll pretty much only tun into the Sounds games when Gasser/the potential MLB relievers pitch.

    Yeah here are the average age of position/pitcher groups relative to league average for all the Brewers minor league teams. Carolina Position Players - 19.8 years old vs 20.9 league average (-1.1 years), 12th oldest out of 12 Carolina Pitchers - 21.6 years old vs 21.7 league average (-0.1 years), 7th oldest out of 12 Wisconsin Position Players - 22.0 years old vs 22.5 league average (-0.5 years), 10th oldest out of 12 Wisconsin Pitchers - 22.9 years old vs 23.3 league average (-0.4 years), 10th oldest out of 12 Biloxi Position Players - 22.5 years old vs 23.8 league average (-1.3 years), 8th oldest out of 8 Biloxi Pitchers - 24.3 years old vs 24.3 league average (0.0 years), 5th oldest out of 8 Nashville Position Players - 27.7 years old vs 26.6 league average (+1.1 years), 7th oldest out of 20 Nashville Pitchers - 28.0 years old vs 27.3 league average (+0.7 years), 4th oldest out of 20 Outside of Nashville, every single position/pitcher group is in the younger half of the league.

    They went 3-1 today and have 3 teams above .500...how has the whole system been disappointing?
