    I said they don't catch. Not that they don't play lol. Brewers have a full-time DH on their roster in Winker. It's not as easy to just play Contreras at DH when he isn't catching when they need to get Winker consistent ABs.

    Love the report!

    Regarding Contreras use, I will say this. He should absolutely be playing in all 3 games of the Angels series with 3 LHP on the mound for them. I think Counsell will have Contreras catch the 1st and 3rd game with Caratini catching Burnes in the 2nd game with Contreras DH'ing.

    I've been paying a lot more attention to his on the broadcasts this year. Sometimes those strike zone boxes are not remotely close to being the knee to the belt so the pitch doesn't hit the box and people complain about the call when it was actually a strike.

    No just a poorly located cutter.
  6. wiguy94
    He's set to pitch tomorrow against the A's. We are scheduled to face 3 LHP in the Angels series though so not much better.

    The double in his first AB was off a slider (granted it was a hanging slider) but still good to see.

    Especially with him playing at Coors in that time. The average batting line at Coors in the late 90's was insane. HoF level hitting splits being the average hitter splits there.

    Caratini bomb! Maybe Counsell knows what he is doing!

    Adley and Contreras have both caught 17 games this season. Seems like they both are getting plenty of games off behind the plate. Realmuto has been catching 140 games for over half a decade he is used to it. Contreras has never caught 100 games in his career and he only caught 68 games last season. He's on pace to catch 111 games this season.

    Catchers rarely ever play day games after night games. Why do you continue to ignore that?
  12. wiguy94
    Someone at the game said EBJ is sitting on the top rail of the dugout with no ice on his face. Seems like a good sign it was just precautionary to take him out of the game!

    Nice to get an early lead. Hopefully BA can push it to 3-0 here.
  14. wiguy94
    Which again comes back to you wanting to give up on Winker 25 games into the season. We got Winker to be our every day DH against RHP.
  15. wiguy94
    Both were accidents. I don't think it looked that terrible in terms of getting hit in the face so fingers crossed he won't miss more than a couple of days.
  16. wiguy94
    Would be nice to have a single game thread this season where people aren't complaining about Counsell's lineups.
  17. wiguy94
    Contreras played 97 games in the MLB last season and 13 in AAA. He's on pace to play 15 more games this season than he did in the 110 games combined last year. Winker had a day off 2 days ago and was pinch hit for yesterday. He's also being exclusively used as a DH so he doesn't need "rest days" when he isn't playing in the field.
  18. wiguy94
    Eric Brown Jr hit in the face with a pitch in the 1st inning and was removed from the game. Very scary moment.
  19. wiguy94
    So you just want to give up on Winker 24 games into a season! Fantastic idea! I've also explained ad nauseum why Contreras is not remotely comparable to Grandal. Stop comparing the two situations.
  20. wiguy94
    Catchers basically never catch day games after night games. You're making this way more difficult than it has to be.
  21. wiguy94
    Mexico City's elevation is 7300 ft. Denver's is 5200 ft. Again not really comparable.
  22. wiguy94
    Helton has Coors working against him though and Votto has an MVP.
  23. wiguy94
    Big reason I think he's bound for 1B eventually. Doesn't have the arm to play 3B and doesn't have the range to play 2B. I actually thought he has looked best defensively in the OF but we have a lot of OF prospects above him on the pecking order.
  24. wiguy94
    Need to get off to a good start in this one. 3 game losing streak and we have been down early in all 3. Down 4-0 in the 2nd yesterday. Down 3-1 heading into bottom of 3rd Monday. Down 3-0 in the 2nd on Sunday. Absolutely need Freddy to bounce back today.
  25. wiguy94
    Thank you for this article. I thought he was way further away from the plate than normal lol.
