  1. I would argue the Dodgers are past-peak with most of their regular positionals 31 years of age or older. The great Ohtani should start showing his age any time now. The Dodgers don’t want him hitting in most of his mound outings, so maybe the decline has already started. Too many players moving into their mid-30’s. Look for the Brewers to pass them up over the next half-decade.
  2. Patrick has incredible poise and he raises his game when the pressure is on like no Brewers pitcher I can remember. I like him pitching the highest of leverage innings the Brewers can find for him.
  3. I think it might be time for Quinton Low to consider switching back to hitting a baseball.
  4. Finally seems 100% healthy after that terrible shoulder injury and subsequent surgery. Nice to see the power start to show itself since he’s always had that in him imo, with his EV’s. He’s a must follow for me now that enough time has passed from his surgery for him to get back to the hitter he was prior. With his hit tool, adding a better LA gives him a real chance to become a factor at 1B for the big-club.
  5. Not sure about early promotions, but I am sure about one thing — there is some serious talent in Arizona, and on both sides of the ball, but especially positionally. Mills-Hughes-Frias-Antunez should all impact Wilson before too long.
  6. To see Josh Knoth’s stuff this good, this soon after his TJ rehab is really something. Looking forward to seeing what he can do once he gets built-up.
  7. Jack & Aram have been ahead of the curve regarding the Brewers incredible infrastructure and farm system. They had us with the 3rd best, 5 year future last year with just 2 large-market teams ahead (Boston-LAD respectively) of MKE. In my opinion, they aren’t being hyperbolic when they say the Brewers farm system is twice as good as the next closest system, they are just describing the combination of depth, upside, balance of positional & pitching talent, proximity of their top prospects and ages of their affiliates below AAA. What a time to be a Brewers fan.
  8. They still have a ton of big arms yet to debut, Thompson-Knoth-Morrison-Broughton-Episcope all should appear in the next month or two. That handful should be fun to follow. I think by mid-season things will look a lot different pitching-wise.
  9. Back to the exciting speed/power prospect again now that he’s finally healthy. Having Lara-Payne & Adamczewski all take-off early in this minor-league season has really improved the OF depth for the system and given it as well balanced a farm system as I can ever remember them having. And not just positional but pitching as well. This system has turned into quite the monster.
  10. Upper-minors starting-pitching with a good night. Kuehner & Hardin with strong outings. Kuehner has to be our most underrated SP in the system doesn’t he?
  11. System pitching is set to explode starting this season. We have a ton of arm talent returning from injury that by midseason will start to make their mark. Woodward-Galindez-Knoth-Broughton-Low all returning from TJ, all talented arms. Thompson & Episcope should both be back pitching again within the next month. Letson-Dorchies off to slow starts, but Hardin has looked good with BA pointing out his stuff has taken a step-up. The upper-minors are stacked with arm talent and the BL team is full of 5 & 6 years controlled solid or better SP.
  12. Gasser pitched on April 10th and threw 60+ pitches so unless he didn’t recover well, he’s not injured anymore and is likely to pitch again for Nashville in the next day or two.
  13. Nice outing by Drohan. Him being an option for the big-club either out of bullpen or rotation could allow the team to add starter arms to the BL pen, which should help stabilize.
  14. Yeah a likely 40 pitch planned first outing back from his second TJ. 2 hits, zero BB’s and 4 K. Impressive performance.
  15. Great to see Woodward starting games again for this organization. Hopefully he can stay as a starter and not get shifted to the bullpen coming off his second TJ.
  16. Well Koenig is now down, so his velocity dip explained by injury. Megill is a ticking time-bomb (my opinion) with his flexor issues and has yet to get his velocity anything close to where he was at pre-injury. He can’t continue to pitch at 96-98 and close games for this team. Uribe I’m a little less concerned with at this time but if he can’t consistently touch 100 fairly soon, count me as concerned.
  17. I’m concerned about the decreased velo with Megill-Koenig & Uribe. All 3 are down considerably from where they were at last year. Megill is far too hittable unless he’s commanding his CB. Koenig is a shell of his second-half of last season self. Uribe’s stuff is still good enough to get outs, but down a couple of ticks just not the same dominance. Unless a couple of them get their stuff back to where it was last season — we could be in some trouble ahead.
  18. Giving up their comp B pick in the package to acquire Harrison-Drohan-Hamilton looking good in the early going so having a draft without their usual top 10ish bonus pool tolerable thanks to the organization’s incredible young talent depth.
  19. Yeah, not too optimistic on Wichrowski as a starter. Maybe middle-relief but his stuff has regressed, imo, since he burst onto the scene in ST a couple of years back when he was touching 100 with a nasty slider. Hoping they have him relieving from this point on. As far as the 1st round pick — I’m hoping they add an OF, hopefully of the college variety that can potentially reach MKE in a couple of years. That’s the 1 system weakness we have. Need more OF talent besides Payne & Adamczewski and a couple of 17/18 year olds. I think this team has such good scouting of pitching, both amateur & pro, along with maybe the best pitching development in the game that they will develop TOR starter arms without a first round pick, like they did before with Woodruff-Burnes & Peralta.
  20. Kuehner has to be the most underrated arm we have in our system. He was great the second-half of last year, fantastic in ST and now off to nice start in this game. Hard to believe the starter arm talent we have developing in our organization.
  21. With Arnold’s promotion to POBO he very likely received an extension with a pay boost.
  22. This team will win the Central because they are not only the best team in the division but also among the best, if not the best in all of baseball. They have everything except Starting Pitching experience — but that’s overcome by the shear numbers of upside SP’s throughout the BL rotation and upper-minors. They dont need Mitchell to play 145 games, or Chourio to become a superstar this season. They have as good of depth as any team in the game, including the LAD. They have more prime-aged, experienced positional talent that’s playoff-worthy than any team in baseball. This team rivals the 1982 team as the best in team history.
  23. Watching this team play games that count has me convinced this roster is better than last year’s roster and in every way. I know it’s only one game, and it’s against one of the worst teams in baseball, but — • having a lineup of mostly 3rd to 5th year players reaching their prime-aged performance years is the biggest reason this will be an improved team. Experience matters, development matters and this team has it now. • starting pitching depth is the best in team history. Organizationally it’s absurd. Upper-minors is loaded. Yes it’s inexperienced outside of Woodruff, but they have the numbers to protect from the inevitable injuries ahead and those numbers should also allow them to settle on a good starting 5-6. • what team in this game has a deeper or stronger bullpen? • what team has a better FO, Manager or coaching staff? • what team has a deeper and or better farm system that can fix weaknesses that pop up throughout the season? With average health, this team is one of the best teams in baseball and can absolutely win a WS championship THIS year.
  24. Adding Hamilton to this roster fixed one of this team’s biggest weakness — backup SS. He’s the perfect Brewers player with his elite defense and speed. IF defense with him at 3B, Ortiz at SS, Turang at 2B and Bauers-Vaughn at 1B has to be among the best in the game. Incredible trade by Arnold adding him, Harrison & Drohan.
  25. Woodruff is healthy, knows his body as well as any pitcher in this game and has a ton of confidence in his new repertoire. Once the real games begin and the adrenaline starts flowing we’ll see some 93’s & 94’s with a steady increase in velo as the season moves along (like last year) and he builds up arm strength.
