    I think the perspective is more so warped because the Brewers actual hitting is more like a bottom 6 offense in baseball. Their 87 wRC+ (after tonight) is 25th in MLB and well below league average. It's not an enjoyable team to watch at the plate. They don't hit for power, they don't hit for average, they aren't great at getting on base. They don't hit the ball hard or barrel it. 30th in Avg EV and barrel rate. 28th in hard hit rate. 27th in xwOBA as a team. The only thing they do at an above average rate offensively is run the bases. Even runs per game they are below the league mean runs per game which shows that there's a big talent drop off from the teams at the top of the league.

    Delgado plays a pretty routine ground ball behind second base too casually and it costs Misiorowski another run as the runner beats out the throw to 1st base.

    I don't think any SP this day in age should be making 5 starts in a row on 4 days rest (will be 6 in his next start as the off day will be Henderson's start) especially a rookie SP who due to the minor league schedule is only accustomed to pitch on 4 days rest once a month at most. It's just how the cards have gone. He had a start bumped up because Peralta had the groin thing. Had another bumped up because of Quintana's shoulder. Don't think this was planned and I don't think the shorter leash has to do with the 4 days rest. More just a matter of him not getting any run support so Murphy is going to really protect him third time through the order if it's a very close game.

    2025 Megill is just not a closer. Just not good enough at getting swing and miss in the strike zone.

    The inability to go six innings is a fallacy. We don't have any big time inning eating guys in our rotation but our guys would be going 6 innings more often if our offense wasn't so bad. Patrick would have gone 6 today if we were down 2-0 or up 3/4 to 0 but because it was a 1-0 game he got pulled.

    Uribe should not have been used today. 6 time in 9 days and 27 times in 51 games is absolutely insane usage. He's also warmed up multiple relievers that didn't end up being used. If you're going to use Uribe why the hell is Rob Zastryzny warming in the bullpen? There's zero reason if you're using Uribe that you should be pulling him for Rob Zastryzny.

    Uribe just threw for the 6th time in 9 days with a 36 pitch multi-inning outing in there. He's also thrown 27 times in 51 active games. Just absolutely insane usage.

    Pat Murphy just has no clue how to manage a bullpen .

    Also demand is higher at the deadline. In the offseason a team can improve through FA. At the trade deadline it's only the deadline.

    Really the issue is the score was 1-0. If Brewers offense could score runs our starters would be going 6 innings a lot more. Patrick would have probably gone 6 innings today if we were up 3 or 4 to 0.

    Have to tip the cap to Sam Garcia for eating a big 5 innings while pitching on 4 days rest. Completely blew past his previous high in pitches as well. 97 pitches today to 82 was the prior high.

    Ernesto just hit an absolute bomb. 107 EV, 418ft blast off the batters eye in dead center field. Also looks like he started cramping as he got to home lol.
  13. wiguy94
    Wow Made is having a heck of a game defensively today. @Spencer Michaelis Twitter thread is a must view today. He’s been a clipping machine.
  14. wiguy94
    Cooper Pratt is having a rough game defensively today. Has cost the Shuckers potentially 4 outs in the 7th inning as the Smokies continue to cut into the lead.
  15. wiguy94
    103 per Javik on the call.
  16. wiguy94
    This is so tiring. They didn't keep anyone over Smith. They had an open 40 man spot even after drafting Connor Thomas in the Rule 5 draft. They just didn't keep Smith. There were spots.
  17. wiguy94
    It's gone pretty under the radar with some of the more well regarded prospects in Biloxi doing well, but Luis Lara is quietly having a very strong season.
  18. wiguy94
    Contreras as well
  19. wiguy94
    Alexander is fine for now as a long reliever or mop up guy. Murphy using him today in a leverage spot when Ashby and Zastryzny are both available is just horrific.
  20. wiguy94
    Pat Murphy sucks but moral of the story is the team sucks and a manager is only as good as the team in front of them
  21. wiguy94
    Yeah it’s pretty clear if Hoskins is producing near where he has been to this point that he’s going to get more than just salary relief.
  22. wiguy94
    Not that Cameron should have been expected to be good but it's tough to give him grief for doing nothing when he's basically been glued to the bench since getting called up. Cameron was on fire and called up on 4/26. In his first 10 days on the Brewers roster he had 7 PA. If you want to carry over a guys hot streak from AAA seems like you should give them some everyday reps when they first come up rather than use them sparingly.
  23. wiguy94
    My goodness this is horrific from Murphy. You know your pen is ravaged so instead of committing to Ashby when you got him up you sat him down and made him unavailable for the rest of the game.
  24. wiguy94
    Yeah that's just not true. If Hoskins still has a 130-140 wRC+ come the deadline the Brewers will get more than "clearing salary off the books" to trade him. Also referring back to your original post you implied nobody in the lineup has value but some pitchers do? Outside of Peralta and Contreras nobody on our roster (that we would ever consider trading) would net a big trade return. If Hoskins is still a 130-140 wRC+ guy he'd be our best reasonable trade asset outside of Peralta and Contreras.
  25. wiguy94
    Please point out where I said he would get a blue chipper for Hoskins?
