    The Sanchize!!!!!

    They want their players to run. I guess they could be sending everyone else but him? I doubt that. There’s no way Willy should have more stolen bases than him.

    Does anyone have any idea why Frelick refuses to attempt stolen bases this year? This catcher literally is unable to throw guys out. He only gets on first due to weak power and walks, why is he refusing to use his speed on a team that encourages it.

    I for one am keenly looking forward to seeing what 7-10 starts a piece look like for Gasser and Myers. If Junis does indeed come back to the bullpen, perhaps they can stretch him out slowly if need be. Its really a bummer about Rodriguez so far this year. Would have loved to see him take that next step and be available for spot starts. He still may yet.

    Man the Brewers normally don’t do this; try to fix something that isn’t broke. I really can’t see any reason why they forbade him from throwing a four seam 5% of the time and upping it to 20% of time with two strikes. It just seems like such a strange thing to eliminate.

    Have been wanting to this talked about because it’s so absurd. Thank you for addressing it. Another frustrating development is that his slider has gone from a plus pitch that sat in the mid to high eighties to a poor looking pitch that hardly has any velo separation from his curveball. He’s also commanded his slider pitifully. How can he just lose shape and speed to that effect literally overnight? His curve has looked good, and at times his changeup has too. Thats about it….

    That would be so dope if Rea outperformed Burnes tomorrow. I’d love to see Burnes have one of his mini temper tantrums.

    This homeplate ump has been shamelessly helping the Brewers today.
  9. Sugarrayray
    They have both always been guys who sit in the mid to high nineties. They just need to get back up to their talent level to perform as expected. Ashby will get up to at least mid nineties soon as he is working his way back from injury. Hall has no excuse for throwing 91-93,94. He will not have success that way. Hopefully as the weather warms up he’ll gain a couple mph.

    I have to say, these last 3-4 games have been some of my favorite in recent memory. Just the certainty with which they play. I also have to say, and I’m not necessarily complaining, that this ump has favored the Crew to a near absurd amount today. I’m surprised Baltimore isn’t chirping more at him.

    The entire team has a higher ops than probably any player under the last four years of the Counsell area. And yea, I think it has a lot to do with him not having influence anymore.
  12. Sugarrayray
    Yeah and I’m tired of these announcers trying to say Willy brings an aggressive edge or whatever. He’s like the nicest most friendly guy in the league, Mccann tried to talk down to him and point in his chest for no specific reason and Willy didn’t back down? Great, as he shouldn’t have. But why aren’t they talking about Mccanns inexplicable behavior?

    The Sanchize….. :)))

    It seems like its going to clear up late in the evening tomorrow. You don’t think they’ll just wait til then instead of reschedule? I’m hoping they stick it out.
  15. Sugarrayray
    Hmmm 🤔
  16. Sugarrayray
    Is anyone else confused that Ortiz, who is supposed to be a defensive wizard at short, can’t make good throws from third? I mean this is getting ridiculous how often he is spiking it.
  17. Sugarrayray
    I’m seriously starting to get pissed about these throws. It like Contreras said, stop letting De La Cruz and other guys scaring you into bad throws. Especially for a veteran leader like Adames who has a hose. Fortunate Haskins wasn’t playing.
  18. Sugarrayray
    Sorry man. Wish there was some way to help.

    Feeling good about the start of the game so don’t want to be negative, but I am starting to have serious concerns about Ortiz’s throwing actions from 3rd base. Sometimes those shorter guys end up throwing low from long throes to first, but that throw to Turang just now was way too low for exactly no reason. And the other night was putrid.

    Hot damn, I love articles like this!

    I was always very pleased when he used his four seam on occasion last year. If My recall is correct, he did only throw it rarely but upped its usage noticeably with 2 strikes. Even the if pitch metrics forecast limitations, I was very disappointed to see they just had him ditch it. He throws it harder than his sinker and it plays much differently up in the zone, as stated in the article. I will never understand ditching a quality pitch BEFORE it gets hit hard. I think it should be proven over a solid sample size first. Hopefully they correct the error of their ways shortly. They almost always do when it comes to pitching. Great read by the way. Thanks.
  23. Sugarrayray
    Great response. I will not be saying or spelling his name correctly until his play earns my respect 😁
  24. Sugarrayray
    Yes terrible swing at ball 4 but I think that ump would’ve called ball 5 a strike. He gave the Reds pitching almost every 50/50 call tonight and then some.
  25. Sugarrayray
    Really disappointed in Rhys Haskins. Also in Willy going back to his old ways and only going for homeruns tonight. Is anybody as surprised as me by Frelick’s absolute fear of attempting to steals bases? He should have done it earlier because Ashcraft is relatively slow to homeplate, but boy if he had taken second just now, it would have changed the entire at bat for Haskins.
