  1. ERA- isn't some crazy stat. It's just ERA adjusted for park factor and put on a scale where 100 is average so it is easier to compare across teams/players. WPA, SD, MD are to take into consideration context of bullpen ERA. Cardinals have a better bullpen ERA than the Brewers by 0.50 but that's pretty irrelevant because the WPA, SD, MD better measure how the bullpen is actually doing in leverage sitautions. Brewers have excelled in leverage situations and the Cardinals have stunk it up. Their ERA is better than ours because we have had some huge run totals mounted against our bullpen in non-leverage situations which effectively make no difference in the results of the game.
  2. Also Brewers have had a much tougher schedule. 6 of 9 series against teams over .500 compared to Cardinals 4 of 9 series against teams over .500
  3. That isn't relevant to my post. My post was about you trying to pull the "Brewers only giving up 0.25 runs per game less than the Cardinals" as some attempt to lessen the gap between the 2 pitching staffs. The Cardinals pitching is healthy and still significantly worse than the Brewers pitching staff that is battered with injuries. The Cardinals are 14-13 in April despite playing a relatively easy schedule with an opponent win% of 47.7%. Cardinals have played 9 series this month but only 4 of the 9 were against teams above .500 Brewers are obviously 10-15 this month but have played a tougher schedule with an opponent win% of 51%. We are starting our 9th series of the month tomorrow and 6 of the 9 series were against teams above .500
  4. Here you are arguing on behalf of the Cardinals again. Brewers SP have a 94 ERA- compared to the Cardinals SP 117 ERA-. Brewers relievers are 1st in WPA and have the best SD/MD ratio in the MLB compared to Cardinals relievers being 24th in WPA and 26th in SD/MD ratio.
  5. Luke Voit DFA'd.
  6. Luke Voit DFA'd.
  7. I have a feeling Caminero is probably untouchable for a team like Tampa Bay. I've seen the prospect sites raving over him. Saw a baseball prospectus guy last night that thinks he will be unanimous top 10 prospect in all of baseball during the midseason updates and this guy also has Caminero over Chourio at the moment. Tampa isn't going to give up a prospect like that for 1.5 seasons of Corbin Burnes.
  8. I had originally thought this, but I think teams will stay pay up for him. He's 6th among qualified SP in stuff+. His stuff is still super elite and I think teams will care more about that than they will middling numbers. If a team is willing to trade for him they will likely believe they can get the most out of his elite stuff and that they will be getting a great pitcher out of it.
  9. There’s no need to rush to extend him. He’s a guy who was non-tendered largely because of his recent injury history keeping him off the field/unproductive on the field. Rushing to extend him because he’s stayed healthy for 50-ish games could seriously backfire for Milwaukee.
  10. Black can play the OF (I would argue it is where he is best defensively), and could potentially make sense as an option this season. I personally would promote him to AAA and if he keeps raking there for a few weeks would potentially call him up to the MLB around the beginning of July.
  11. I didn't see any injury situation during the game. He hit the HR in the 6th then was in the field in the 7th where he wasn't involved in any plays. Biloxi gave up 3 runs that inning and were down 11-1 going into the 8th inning when he was removed.
  12. They are getting their ass kicked and probably just wanted to give him a couple innings off.
  13. Jackson Chourio just smoked another moonshot to LF off Montgomery's Mejia. He's now 2-3 with a 2B and HR in the game today. His OPS is currently sitting at .734
  14. I hope not. He has not been good during his rehab stint at the plate and even worse in the field. I really hope they don't rush him back.
  15. And Ke'Bryan Hayes (who is probably better than Arenado at this point). And Machado.
  16. He's played like a totally washed dude this year so wouldn't at all surprise me if he's out of the league within the next couple of years.
  17. Winker scratched with neck discomfort. This feels like it ends up with a fake IL stint for something super minor.
  18. So you get to make all these excuses and stipulations just so you can continue to be incredibly negative all the time. Must be a fun way to be a fan!
  19. LMAO. Gasser and Ruiz (who turned into Contreras and Payamps) is now a subpar return for 1.5 seasons of a 1-inning reliever.
  20. People can keep saying this but the top 3 of the rotation have been either extremely injured or extremely underperforming in the last 2 seasons.
  21. No chance Burnes goes 9 innings but this 1-0 prediction is looking pretty realistic.
  22. Burnes is a great thrower of the ball. He has electric stuff but he's just not currently a good pitcher. He's made zero adjustments to how he pitches in 3 seasons despite the results continuing to get worse. Last 145 IP he has a 95 ERA- and 96 FIP- despite having elite stuff for a SP.
  23. Going to suck for you when Burnes pitches 9 innings of 1 run ball and we lose 1-0 lol
  24. What addition should they have made? Toro is worse defensively and has hit worse than Monasterio this year and Alvarez is in the middle of a huge slump.
