    I don’t think Chourio will because he’s 19 and has played a ton of baseball this season. He could end up with close to 600 PA depending on Biloxi making a deep playoff run. My guesses would be. EBJ - Missed a lot of time to injury so could use the extra reps Hendry Mendez - Same reasoning as EBJ Eduardo Garcia - Same reasoning as EBJ and Mendez Adam Seminaris - Missed a lot of time to injury and could use extra innings Alexander Cornielle - Finished the year very strong but has almost 30 fewer IP than last season. Gets him more innings and against some heightened opposition. Brian Fitzpatrick - Coming of injury he’s only thrown 30 innings this year and could probably use some more innings

    Misiorowski and Blalock are both shut down right now.

    I was generally on the opposite side of this argument previously but at one point yesterday there was literally 6 posted articles on the MLB forum in a span of 24 hours. That’s just totally excessive. Zero need for 6 articles to be posted in 24 hours on a site like this.

    Feels like a lot of clickbait in this article.

    Angels are going to have to eat quite a bit of money to get a sizable return. Entering his age 32 season with 7/$248,150,000 left on his contract. That's a lot of money to pay a guy that has played 237 of a possible 486 games (48.8%) in his age 29-31 seasons.

    Wow good for him. 100% deserved as well.

    I feel like this does a great job of illustrating the current state of the Central division race. Record each team needs to finish with 90 wins. Brewers - 11-10 Cubs - 14-5 Reds - 17-2 If Brewers play a game above .500 ball the rest of the year the Cubs would need to go 14-5 and win the final series against us to win the division.

    They can still get that year back going forward. Not like it only could happen this year. Based on how he hit this year, I would be shocked if he didn't spend some time in AAA next season.

    Keston is hurt. Glad the obnoxious Keston discourse can be put to a rest

    I could actually see a similar situation with Canha

    They did exercise Wong's option. They excercised it then traded him to the Mariners.

    Unfortunately with the big cut down in stateside minor league player allotment kicking in next season this was going to be a reality. I feel awful for all these players losing their spots because there just won't be many spots open anywhere this offseason.

    Cubs bullpen has been much better since the beginning of June. Since June 1st we have 3.83 bullpen WPA compared to the Cubs 3.47 WPA. 5th and 6th respectively in the MLB. We have 88 SD (3rd most) and 39 MD (7th fewest). Cubs have 71 SD (23rd most) and 32 MD (Tied for fewest) I just don't think their rotation will hold up the rest of the year. Steele might end up with 60+ IP more than his career high. Hendricks is good. Taillon is not good. Assad and Wicks are rookies way overperforming their peripheral numbers. I think our veteran rotation is quite a bit better than their rotation.
  14. wiguy94
    I would certainly consider it.
  15. wiguy94
    Definitely needs more AB. I’d be looking to have Canha play LF or RF and Frelick, Taylor, Yelich to mix in more off days to get Rowdy’s bat into the lineup against RHP.

    Yeah there’s just zero reason to say Nadal is on the same level of prospect status as any of those guys. Nadal was an over age DSL repeater. He’s 3 months younger than Luke Adams who had many dominant stretches playing 2 levels above Nadal. Bitonti is actually 16 months younger than Nadal. Nadal had a great season no doubt but he needs to show quite a bit more before he’s on the same level as any of those guys you listed.

    John Cassidy went 1-20 for the Brooklyn Atlantics in 1875 and Jack Nabors went 1-20 for the Philadelphia Athletics in 1916. Those are the 2 worst records minimum 1 loss I can find in MLB history. Post integration the worst I can find is Mike Parrott who went 1-16 for the Mariners in 1980. He won the season opener then lost 16 straight to end the year. He was traded to the Brewers in March of 1982 for Thad Bosley but never played another MLB game after the trade. Anthony Young also went 1-16 for the Mets in 1993. Between May 1992 and July 1993 he lost 27 straight decisions which is the longest losing streak in MLB history. So Greinke is flirting with history at 1-14.

    How the Brewers assign prospects next year will be pretty interesting to watch. Seems like there are a lot of guys at AA, A+ and A that should be starting next year at the next level. Feel like the Sounds next year will be a much more homegrown team than we had this year.

    23 because San Francisco and Arizona both have tie breakers over us.
  20. wiguy94
    If the point is evaluating overall team strength, I'm not sure it matters that rookie pitchers are potentially the Brewers kryptonite because the Cubs don't exclusively play the Brewers.
  21. wiguy94
    This is way too generous to the Cubs pitching. Steele is already 25 IP over his career high. Taillon hasn't been good this year and then they have 2 rookies in their rotation in Assad and Wicks.
  22. wiguy94
    His surface numbers might not be amazing this year but his peripheral numbers are outstanding.

    Tyler Black's batted ball metrics in AAA this year. Avg EV - 85.9 Sweet spot % - 21.3% Barrel % - 4.9% (1 of the 3 barrels was off a position player) Hard hit % - 23.0% Josh Donaldson's MLB batted ball metrics this year. Avg EV - 92.8 Sweet spot % - 25.0% Barrel % - 19.7% Hard hit % - 51.3% I don't at all think it's safe to suggest Black who has had horrible batted ball metrics in AAA would be a better MLB hitter than Donaldson who has put up great batted ball metrics in the MLB this year

    Unfortunately the batted ball data really isn't trending up at all. The results have gotten better in the last 2 weeks but that isn't from improved batted ball numbers. Here are his batted ball numbers over the last 2 weeks taking out the HR against the position player. Avg EV - 86.2 Sweet Spot % - 28.2% Barrel % - 5.1% Hard HIt % - 23.1% Negative LA + LA over 40 - 21 of 39 (53.8%) All of those numbers are still really poor and the only number that's really seen any improvement is the sweet spot % which is still a poor number.
  25. wiguy94
    Still not in love with the idea of promoting Black to get a majority of AB at 3B. His batted ball data has been horrific in AAA. Average EV of 85.9, Sweet Spot % of 21.3%, Barrel% of 4.9%, Hard Hit % of 23.0%. 39 of his 61 batted balls (63.9%) have either had a negative LA or a LA above 40.
