  1. One of the Cardinals "league average SP" has already given up 3 runs in the 1st inning against the incredible Washington Nationals offense!
  2. Their run differential is 1 run better than the Brewers lol. They also have a terrible bullpen so them underperforming their run differential is not at all surprising.
  3. Where are you getting above average bullpen and 3 average starting pitchers from? Cards bullpen has been one of the worst in the MLB this year and Helsley is on the IL with forearm tightness. Mikolas and Flaherty are not average SP. Their ERA- are both below league average and their xERA and peripheral batted numbers are well below league average. Montgomery is their only SP who is average or better
  4. Players I think are could be ready for promotions. A - Lara, Adams, Wehrle, Smith A+ - Lazar AA - Black, Campbell A+ is a bit of a log jam with not a lot of players deserving of promotions. I think they could push Gray again if Lara gets promoted to A+. Woessner I think could handle a promotion but I feel like he needs to maintain his velo deeper into starts before he’s truly ready for a promotion.
  5. If only Brewers fans on this site believed in the Brewers as much as they do the Cardinals.
  6. As of today: Brent Suter - 2.88 ERA, 3.39 FIP, 4.47 xFIP Chase Anderson - 4.12 ERA, 5.68 FIP, 4.85 xFIP Vs their Brewers counterparts that you wanted to replace Bryse Wilson - 2.83 ERA, 3.90 FIP, 4.64 xFIP Colin Rea - 4.71 ERA, 4.80 FIP, 4.34 xFIP Julio Teheran - 1.78 ERA, 3.73 FIP, 4.43 xFIP Thank goodness we didn't trade prospects away for Suter and Anderson and just continued to ride with what we had considering they have performed pretty much on par with Suter and Anderson.
  7. I think there are plenty of AAAA guys in Nashville that the Brewers can simply release if they wanted to get time for Valerio in AAA. Eddy Alvarez, Josh VanMeter, Skye Bolt, Monte Harrison, Tyler Naquin, Roman Quinn, Michael Reed. Those are all AAAA type guys who shouldn't prevent a prospect from being promoted and getting playing time in AAA.
  8. Greinke had a 93 ERA- in Milwaukee. He didn't pitch like an ace when we had him. Sheets had a couple seasons where he pitched like an ace but 87 ERA- in his career in Milwaukee isn't exactly ace material.
  9. Out of qualified pitchers, Burnes is 28th in ERA and 45th in FIP. That's not ace level pitching. Just because it is better than Gallardo and Greinke who never pitched like aces in Milwaukee doesn't mean that it's ace level pitching.
  10. Feels like this is just delaying the inevitable.
  11. This isn't even a hindsight thing either. Basically everybody I know who remotely follows the Brewers minor leagues hated that trade.
  12. You should absolutely never draft by need in the MLB draft. Always draft the best player available that fits the team's signing bonus strategy.
  13. I think Teheran might survive over Rea for the sole fact that Rea has an option and Teheran does not.
  14. 94 EV HR. Hard to get excited about that.
  15. Good. Get all of their runs out of the way against Pittsburgh before they play us.
  16. I think they can give him all the time in the world. (Lauer himself said he expects the rehab assignment to be longer). Teheran and Rea have both been solid as depth guys. Miley makes a rehab start on Sunday and has said he only expects himself to need the 1 rehab assignment. With Miley back in the next two weeks, Lauer can take all the time he needs.
  17. Was interesting how heavy Peralta went to his FB. Think he threw it almost 70% of the time. It was a good adjustment by him/Contreras to rely on it that much last night when the Orioles could barely touch it.
  18. Didn’t really seem like Lauer was actually pitching to win. 59 pitches and 46 of them being FB when they couldn’t touch his secondaries feels like he’s just trying to mechanically get right and get the velo back on his FB. He averaged 92 last night which is between the 93 last year and 91 on the season which I think is an alright start.
  19. deGrom getting TJ surgery.
  20. Brewers current wRC+ is 87. If you swapped the 242 DH PA at 55 WRC+ for 242 DH PA at 100 wRC+, the Brewers team wRC+ would be about 92 so still not good at all. DH is obviously a huge issue but it is far from the only issue. C - 108 wRC+ (6th) 1B - 97 wRC+ (19th) 2B - 87 wRC+ (18th) SS - 67 wRC+ (28th) 3B - 116 wRC+ (6th) LF - 104 wRC+ (13th) CF - 98 wRC+ (20th) RF - 52 wRC+ (30th) DH - 55 wRC+ (28th) We are in the bottom 3 at 3 different positions and 2 of those positions are positions you are supposed to get excess offensive value from (DH and RF). I guess the silver lining is Tyrone, Winker, Voit, (and soon Turang) are not longer on the roster and they were the biggest culprits to the poor numbers at those positions.
  21. That seems pretty notable. When is the last time the Brewers had a 17 year old pitcher completely skip the DSL? Has it ever happened?
  22. 90th EV, Barrel%, sweetspot% are my 3 favorites. LA can be noisy because of outlier pop up and ground ball.
