    I find it really hard to believe this would ever get approved. This would be deeply unpopular with traditional baseball fans and I don't think this would bring any new fans to the sport.

    Feel like you're underrating what Montas did. He had 1 really bad start that blew up his Brewers numbers but outside of that start he was exactly what we needed in solidifying the rotation. Overall Brewers Numbers - 11 GS, 57.1 IP, 4.55 ERA Brewers Numbers taking out his blowup against the D-Backs - 10 GS, 54.2 IP, 3.62 ERA Sure Junis had a better ERA but Junis wasn't starting until September. His first time throwing 5 innings after the deadline was 9/7. He could not have solidified the rotation starting in August like Montas did so him having a better ERA is mostly pointless.

    So the change was that nobody used to have fully guaranteed pay to now the people who settle have the fully guaranteed pay?

    I thought they changed that rule in the last CBA?

    No. He has no place on the Brewers roster. Bauers was a LHH. Wisdom is a RHH which makes him redundant with Hoskins.

    I'd bet Pratt starts in Biloxi. I'd also very much bet against all 4 of Made, Pena, Anderson, and Ortuno going straight from DSL to A ball.

    I mean that still doesn't mean it was surprising. Everyone knew Patrick was someone who could potentially be protected. What would be surprising is if someone like Russell Smith or Wes Clarke was protected.

    Keep so Scooterfletcher has a place to spam posts that isn't the main forum.

    Gasser should still be on their prospect list. Mitchell was still on their prospect list heading into the 2024 season. They either forgot about Gasser, changed their eligibility rules, or actually have him outside the Top 10.

    He's been much better outside of Coors the last few years. I've posted this like 3 times on Fanatic this offseason. Another time won't hurt. Here are his home/road with RHP/LHP platoon splits over the last 3 seasons. Home vs RHP - 87 wRC+, .332 wOBA, .331 xwOBA, .437 wOBACON, .435 xwOBACON Road vs RHP - 114 wRC+, .336 wOBA, .353 xwOBA, .426 wOBACON, .455 xwOBACON Home vs LHP - 105 wRC+, .359 wOBA, .344 xwOBA, .442 wOBACON, .417 xwOBACON Road vs LHP - 39 wRC+, .225 wOBA, .259 xwOBA, .285 wOBACON, .339 xwOBACON He's been good against RHP outside of Coors with very good underlying numbers. He can't hit LHP to save his life outside of Coors. You'd probably have to view him as more of a strong side platoon guy getting 550-ish PA and sitting most days against LHP but there's a lot to like about his bat against RHP outside of Coors.

    Devin himself confirmed he was never suspended.

    Didn't Chourio win one of the 3 OF GG awards last year as well or was that 2 years ago?
  13. wiguy94
    You both said signing Hoskins was the 1% dream scenario then after signing him said you wished he did not have a player option for the 2025 season.

    Overreaction city.

    Childers might be pitching himself into legit RP prospect. Tonight his FB topped out at 98.4. It averaged 97.4mph, 2400rpm, 17 IVB, 5 horizontal.

    I think there's a pretty clear spot for him in the back of the rotation. You have 3 should be dependable SP (Peralta, Myers, Civale) and a gigantic list of question marks after that. Saying there's not spot for a 4th should be dependable SP doesn't really make sense. Of the other names you listed Woodruff, Ashby, Hall all have legit question marks. Henderson doesn't have a real third pitch and has durability concerns. Crow has never pitched in AAA and is a very light throwing RHP. Patrick was doing well in AAA all year and was never given a chance in the MLB even over a guy like Dallas Keuchel. Misiorowski hasn't shown near the command needed to be an MLB SP yet. Rodriguez has stuff and command concerns. If you trade Rea you're putting a whole lotta faith in Woodruff being a solid SP as 32 year old post shoulder surgery and Hall/Ashby proving they are MLB level SP.

    That definitely does not seem like a group that you would feel comfortable trading proven MLB SP depth from. You have 3 guys who should be dependable SP and then a bunch of question marks.

    Just realized that Victor Estevez was either fired or not re-signed by Escogido. Albert Pujols is their manager this year.

    Birchard getting notably squeezed again according to statcast. 6 strikes on 15 pitches while statcast has him with 9 strikes on 15 pitches. Just some bad umping really hurting him.
  20. wiguy94
    I think I would have put both Tate Kuehner and Manuel Rodriguez over Misiorowski at SP. Misiorowski as a SP in AA had 79.2 IP, 3.50 ERA, 4.08 FIP. Kuehner this year had 104.1 IP, 3.19 ERA, 3.82 FIP. Rodriguez this year had 94.2 IP, 3.23 ERA, 4.00 FIP.

    Man that was a fun game. This is going to be a great series.

    I'm guessing defense wasn't factored in. At least the article didn't mention defense. Based on the 5 AAA guys, I'd imagine that OPS, HR, RBI, SB were what most of the votes were based on which ignores that the AAA hitting environment is substantially different than the other levels. Carolina League - .661 average OPS, 4.41 runs per game Midwest League - .684 average OPS, 4.42 runs per game Southern League - .664 average OPS, 4.04 runs per game International League - .763 average OPS, 5.13 runs per game Mejia had the 2nd worst wRC+ of the 5 catchers substantially behind Rodriguez, Miller, Garcia but was 1st in OPS, HR, RBI which largely just comes down to the International League being a far more offensive league than the other 3 leagues.

    Mejia being the C is a major whiff. He wasn't even close to being the best catcher in the system. Ramon Rodriguez - 121 wRC+ Darrien Miller - 120 wRC+ David Garcia - 116 wRC+ Francisco Mejia - 103 wRC+ Matthew Wood - 102 wRC+ I'd also say Yophery not being in the OF was a pretty big whiff.

    Here are some numbers showing just how insane Fernandomania was.
