    Pitching matchups are seldom to the Brewers advantage. Perhaps the opener strategy can be helpful, again. I don’t know how they keep winning behind that rotation.

    It will commence with the unveiling of his statue, right there by the bridge.

    This is my last opposing viewpoint to the new Turang narrative. He’s proven me wrong, so far. I hope it continues. However, as defenses adjust those softly struck fly balls and dribblers will find gloves. Poor contact seldom leads to good results.

    Simply stated, the starters haven’t been good and this data suggests they’re actually a bit worse than we’ve come to believe.

    Taking the out at first instead of the lead out at second isn’t radical. There’s another word for it.

    With D. Williams out the number and quality of change ups being thrown will be down. I think it’s a difficult pitch to master. Bad ones get crushed.

    I don’t know if I can agree with this. For one, it makes fielding the position more difficult, specifically because more pitches will be skipping into and away from the catcher. Framing will be harder. They’ll be reaching even more than they do now. Last night’s episode had very little to do with catcher positioning and a whole lot to do with a giant, one handed backswing.

    Once the backswing contacted the catcher while the batter was in the box the ruling became clear. The plate umpire called it immediately. He got it right.

    That’s a boatload of work. Thanks for putting it together.

    Celebrating the greatness of Jackie Robinson with the start of each new season is a great idea.. The history lesson matters. Well done.

    Hard to disagree. The lack of power in the order will slow their roll when those three hop grounders stop trickling through. Lucky may be better than good, but good is a better choice in the long term.

    Contreras is so much better than I expected. His ability and willingness to drive a ground ball through a vacated sector of the infield makes him different.

    Turang is listed at 6’0”/188 pounds. He doesn’t appear to be that big. A ten home run year would be peak power. Maybe he can be effective. It won’t be as a slugger.

    Every flare he hits has been finding the outfield grass. As it continues opposing outfielders will continue to come forward. This is unsustainable. He looks like Larry Bowa out there. That guy couldn’t hit a bit.

    Scuffling through four innings without his best stuff is a positive. While I see him as a leverage reliever, the time is right to see if he is going to be more. Sustaining velocity and developing command will always be important. 93 on the paint will carry the day. 95 down the middle will not.
