  1. I don't think MLB would ever go to Mexico City because of the elevation. 8000ft above sea level would be way too offensive of an environment.
  2. Hell no. Brewers should absolutely avoid putting their AAA team in the PCL where half the stadiums are at ridiculous elevations and the offensive environment is absurd.
  3. The Madison Mallards average like 6000 fans per game as a Northwoods League team which is 1600 less than Nashville did. If you don’t think Madison could put up those numbers with a Brewers AAA affiliate then I don’t know what you’re smoking.
  4. You've been told countless times Suter is a low leverage pitcher. He would have been nowhere near this game. Bryce Wilson replaced him and has been better than Suter.
  5. I think 2B is no longer a thing for him because of the shift bans. Range is super important again now and Black just doesn't have good range. I thought he was pretty decent in the OF last year but our OF is stacked with prospects so 3B made the most sense. I still think 1B or super utility is what he ends up being long term but getting him practice at 3B is better than sticking him at 1B at this point.
  6. Seriously? Why is this an article? Just absolutely unnecessary for a low leverage RP. Zero reason this article should have been published by this site.
  7. Praying we get Madison!
  8. That's assuming the quality of contact is similar for both teams and it is not. Cardinals xBA is .267 (best in MLB) compared to our .243 (17th in MLB) and their xSLG is .446 (5th in MLB) compared to our .390 (22nd in MLB). Their .347 xwOBA is 4th in the MLB compared to our .318 which is 18th.
  9. Is Vegas a bigger market? Sportsmedia watch has Vegas as basically the same size market as Milwaukee.
  10. Taylor has supposedly been playing games in Arizona and will be headed on a rehab assignment soon. Frelick is on the IL currently with a sprained thumb. Would imagine Taylor will be ready before Frelick.
  11. That was good. Well done!
  12. I hope I find a wife someday that loves me as much as you love Suter.
  13. Clearly getting JB some lab work! Good to see Frelick hasn't been put on the IL with his thumb injury.
  14. A's and Rockies are both complete jokes as franchises.
  15. Brewers definitely value Turang's defense at 2B. Without the hard shift, range at 2B is more important than it has been the last few years.
  16. Nobody claimed him. He is staying in Nashville.
  17. Houser still has another year of team control. There's zero reason to give him an extension.
  18. Frelick has had a rough start. He had one of the best average EV in the system last year and he currently has an average EV around 83 which is really poor. Not very good contact from him. Conversely, Perkins has had an amazing start and is pounding the crap out of the ball. His average EV before yesterday was 91 and all 3 of his balls in play yesterday had EV over 100.
  19. I don’t think Gasser is remotely ready for an MLB spot start. Dude has 27 BB and HBP in 35 innings in AAA. His command has not looked good since he got to AAA.
  20. Slashing .219/.324/.313 for a 92 wRC+ with 1 SB and slightly above average CF defense. On pace for about a 1.5 fWAR season in 550 PA
  21. The lack of strikeouts and whiffs by the bullpen has surprised me. They have for the most part done a very good job creating weak contact but the lack of whiffs and strikeouts is somewhat concerning. Their 17.8% K-rate is 26th among MLB bullpens. Their 10.9% BB-rate is 24th. The 7% K-BB rate is 28th. They are 1st in average EV at 84.5. They are 2nd in barrel rate at 2.2%. They are 1st in hard-hit rate at 28.9%. Just difficult to get a read on them up to this point. Hopefully we start seeing some more whiffs and strikeouts going forward without a huge sacrifice to the quality of contact against.
  22. Yeah the catcher was barking at Cruz about the slide being really late. It ended up being bad for Cruz, but it easily could have gone the other way and injured the catcher. You could hear the catcher say "What the f*ck was that". If you rewatch the play, Cruz was running towards the inside part of the plate despite starting outside the line. He likely did this to make the throw home from third more difficult but the catcher wasn't blocking the outside edge of the plate. Cruz could have easily stayed outside and slipped a hand in and this all would have been avoided.
  23. I think part of the issue is he moved closer to fair territory in an attempt to make the throw home more difficult. The outside of the plate was open for a slide but he slid towards the inside of the plate and additionally slid late as well.
  24. Sell. Sell. Sell. If Bryan Reynolds keeps up his hot start, someone is going to trade the farm for him.
