  1. Weird comparison as they weren’t even drafted in the same draft. Abbott was drafted in 2021, 2 picks after Russell Smith not Zamora who was drafted in 2020.
  2. Minnesota has to absolutely be kicking themselves for that Mahle trade. 1.5 seasons of Mahle (tore his UCL so they only got the 0.5 seasons) and they gave up Steer, Encarnacion-Strand, and I think a minor league pitcher. Steer is having a great season and CES is destroying AAA. That trade is going to age quite terrible for the Twins.
  3. If you go to the team stats page on Fangraphs and toggle to win probability that’s where you can see the WPA, SD/MD and leverage type numbers. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=pit&lg=all&qual=0&type=3&season=2023&month=0&season1=2023&ind=0&team=0,ts&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&startdate=2023-01-01&enddate=2023-12-31
  4. Hader's numbers are wrong. You aren't including last season's numbers, but this trade is a win for the Brewers. We ended up getting Gasser, Contreras, Payamps, And Yeager for 1 year and 2 months of Hader, a 3 out RP. Gasser had some early season command issues but has been incredible over the last 6-7 starts. Contreras is a well above average catcher with 5 years of control. Payamps has been a very dependable high leverage RP with 3 years of control. Yeager is a minor league RP who has intriguing stuff. Did the trade have some locker room impact last season? Yes, but I am still hesitant to say it's the reason we missed the playoffs considering we played basically the same level baseball from June 1st to the end of the season. Our high leverage bullpen has been the best in baseball this season. Leads in WPA. 1st in SD:MD ratio.
  5. Why are you continuing to compare the 2011 team to a team that is 14 games under .500 on July 1st and has one of the worst pitching staffs in the MLB?
  6. The Cardinals suck dude. They have zero intent on actually winning at this point and trotting a completely washed Wainwright out there every 5 days so he can get to 200 wins is all the evidence needed to prove they have no intent on winning at this point.
  7. Tapia also seems like an easy DFA candidate when Taylor is ready again or Frelick gets the call.
  8. Yelich is on pace for a 5 fWAR season. That's well outperforming his contract, so no we don't need even more.
  9. Oh wow.
  10. I feel like I’ve heard nothing about Tyrone since he went back on the IL. I know he got a second PRP injection but have heard nothing about timelines. Feel like he could definitely be pushed to the 60-day.
  11. Feel like concern over the Cape performance is probably less wood bat related and more small college struggling against better competition on the Cape. I agree with you that any concern is probably overstated
  12. I’d rather they get hot and start winning but I think the most realistic situation is they just continue to get by for the next month and are in a weird spot of buy/sell. I just think there’s too many holes to fill. RF, DH, 1B, 2B are all among the worst in the league this year offensively and I don’t think we can get 4 good hitters through the trade market. Leads me to thinking selling is probably the best option for this team because let’s be real does anyone think this team could score enough in the postseason to make a run?
  13. Alex Jensen from ProspectsLive was raving about Jesus Rivero last week. Here's the tweets.
  14. Was Quero 2019? He might save that class. Overall though a rough year between the 2019 draft and IFA class.
  15. My hypothetical trade. Burnes and Payamps for Manzardo, Montgomery, and Basabe. BTV has it as pretty fair. Brewers getting $51.3M surplus value and Rays getting $54.6 surplus value.
  16. I really pray the Reds operate like you want them. Please blow the farm system for rental/old starting pitchers!
  17. 2020 - 189 PA, .338 xwOBA 2023 - 200 PA, .340 xwOBA He's hitting about as well as he did in 2020 over a very similar sample size. However in 2020 he had a .292 BABIP so he underperformed his xwOBA and in 2023 he has a .406 BABIP so he's overperforming his xwOBA
  18. Jam shot that caused thumb soreness. Curt Hogg said he is expected to return to play as soon as this week. It’s about all we have gotten.
  19. Ashcraft has shown nothing yet in his MLB career to be listed with those other names.
  20. Not to mention Adames, Urias, and Winker all had good games at the plate. We desperately need those 3 to start hitting better and hopefully today was the day that starts happening.
  21. Figured I would start a thread on this. It's a fun little daily baseball trivia game that I have enjoyed playing the last few weeks. https://www.immaculategrid.com/
  22. This is an optimism thread we are also 6-1 against the Reds and Pirates this year .
  23. That's 1 average SP not 3 like you said. I've also seen nobody say Freddy is an above average pitcher this season. Two above average RP by ERA+ doesn't make an above average bullpen. Good relievers typically carry ERA+ far above 100. For comparison's sake here is the Brewers bullpen by ERA+ DW - 227 Payamps - 172 Wilson - 152 Milner - 144 Peguero - 156 Megill - 129 Strzelecki - 88 Here is Cincinnati's bullpen which is average by WPA. Diaz - 257 Farmer - 204 Gibaut - 140 Young - 169 Sims - 171 That Cardinals bullpen is just flat out bad.
  24. 5-0 Nationals in the 2nd inning against the league average SP. Also the scary Nolan Gorman that was included up with Goldschmidt and Arenado has a 48% K-rate in June and has seen his wRC+ drop from 148 at the end of May to currently 118 after his first AB today.
