  1. I think he definitely had it in him to do this but I was expecting a bit more up and down like we saw last year. He hasn't had a single blowup outing. He's gone at least 5 innings in every start. These were his numbers as a SP last year - 4.38 ERA, 3.31 xERA, 3.59 FIP, 3.56 xFIP, 3.45 SIERA, 21.5% K-BB rate These are his numbers this year - 2.84 ERA, 2.90 xERA, 2.98 FIP, 2.63 xFIP, 2.58 SIERA, 28.4% K-BB rate ERA improved by 1.54 runs xERA improved by .41 runs FIP improved by .61 runs xFIP improved by .93 runs SIERA improved by .87 runs K-BB rate improved by 6.9 points
  2. I'll keep it to 50 PA and 10 IP for active roster players. Overperforming - Turang, Mitchell (health), Sanchez, Misiorowski, Harrison, Hall Meeting Expectations - Contreras, Bauers, Hamilton, Lockridge, Woodruff, Ashby, Anderson, Woodford, Drohan Underperforming - Frelick, Rengifo, Ortiz, Perkins, Patrick, Sproat, Uribe, Megill
  3. The 38% K-rate, .500 BABIP, and sub .300 xwOBA are all real reasons to downplay Wiemer’s start to the year.
  4. This is some generous slanting on your part. I don’t think anyone has said or will ever say the Montas trade was a great trade so the idea you’re getting push back because you don’t think it’s great isn’t accurate. You got push back because you said it didn’t make sense at the time and it looks much worse now. That pushback happened because the trade made sense at the time. Brewers needed SP depth and Junis wasn’t stretched out. Wiemer getting off to a fluky hot start multiple years later also doesn’t make it look any worse.
  5. He’s over performing his xwOBA by 134 points. 42 of his 101 batted balls on the season have a negative launch angle. How he’s produced does not appear to be sustainable.
  6. Junis was not going to have his mutual option picked up for year 2 in Milwaukee. He was a rental. Wiemer is overperforming his xwOBA by over 100 points and has a .500 BABIP with a 38% K-rate. Does not seem like his early season success is going to be something that gets sustained
  7. Yeah the fanbase seems pretty split as to what to do. We are so loaded up with forwards and could really use a D. I’ve been hoping all year we would fall off and end up low enough to pick Chase Reid. Instead we win the 2nd pick and now I feel like you have to just take Stenberg and figure out the rest down the road. BPA is the way.
  8. I saw a clip of Cam Schlittler in A ball as a 22 year old a few days ago and it was not impressive. 3 years later he looks like one of the best pitchers in MLB. These teenage pitching prospects have such a long runway to go and pitching prospects feel so much more likely to come out of nowhere and be good than hitting prospects do.
  9. Zerpa has TJ surgery announced today and Collins is 3-3 with a 2B and HR to bring up him up a 114 wRC+. That's a real gut punch.
  10. My San Jose Sharks just jumped up to #2 in the lottery. Deserved for me after the Brewers game got postponed.
  11. Of course instead of the doubleheader being tomorrow when there's no rain being projected the doubleheader is in July when the Brewers are in the midst of a 17 in 17 stretch making it 18 in 17.
  12. That's the outside of the plate for a right handed hitter
  13. I know it’s only 103 PA but 41 strikeouts and below 60% contact rate for a 1st round pick who was supposed to be a fast mover is becoming a legit concern for me with Fischer. It’s still a relatively small sample but if your swing is being exposed in A+ like this then how are you going to look in AA or higher?
  14. Sounds like he’s fine and has been okay since it happened but they are still trying to figure out what happened. I think he was scheduled to see a neurologist yesterday. I think they are just proceeding with extreme caution.
  15. It’s a combo of no humidor for minor league games and the ball carries really well in the dry Arizona air. Looking at ST this year there was a 98.2 EV, 425ft HR in Arizona
  16. Bat speed readings look pretty inconsistent so not sure how accurate they are but Frias had a 78.7mph swing and Hughes had a 76.1mph swing.
  17. Holden has a pretty nice pitch mix for such a young guy. Four distinct shapes with two clear breaking ball shapes that he threw pretty consistently. I’m intrigued.
  18. Probably didn’t end up mattering but I hated that decision from Murphy. Patrick was battling his command all game. His first pitch strike rate was 50% through the first two times in the order. Intentionally walking the bases loaded immediately felt like something that would backfire.
  19. Feel like Ragsdale is more likely to get promoted in the next month or so than Payne is if we are talking A+ OF.
  20. Chourio and Vaughn were both activated off the IL today. Priester was removed from his rehab assignment so he's still a long way off from returning I'd guess.
  21. Hogg just said he wouldn't anticipate Pratt being called up
  22. That's just online speculation because Pratt was late scratched in AAA yesterday. Could happen. If I had to guess, I'd say it's just a coincidence and Pratt isn't being called up.
  23. I'll take it a step further. I bet they wouldn't have even gotten a hit and maybe not even a baserunner if he didn't slip there. Though I still think Henderson would have been pulled after 6 innings.
  24. I’d like to see Damon Keith get bumped up to AAA. He’s almost 26 and has 752 PA at the AA level.
