He has a 644 ops vs lefties this year…..he’s better than last season but AM is still a better option…..and Brice isn’t going to play every single game so this is fine.
Brice has not hit lefties well so far in his career…..Monasterio has a wrc plus of 118 against lefties in his career.
I know people don’t like platoons but they do have reasons why they use them……and although AM had a bad error……he has also been a plus offensively both last night and tonight……
No strikeouts and very little swing and miss from Gasser……has limited the damage but you would like to see some outs where luck is taken out of the equation.
I’ve never seen a commentator more obsessed with anything than Dillard is with starting pitchers going “ deep” into games…………he missed his chance to go work for Dusty Baker……
35 innings above A ball is an unusual move by the Crew…….lets see what he’s got
ps typically if they were going to,push Freddy back they would have waited another day to make the move so as not to be short an arm in the pen but we will see.
I’d cut Arnold a little slack…….when you have as many injuries as the Brewers have had all at once it’s pretty difficult to have a pitcher or 2 at the end of the bullpen that isn’t very good………Wilson was our long reliever and he’s now starting…….3 or 4 other guys that would be pitching for us aren’t available.
Mis walked 5 guys in 31/3 tonight…….threw more balls than strikes……I think he’s mature but his command is going to have to make a leap before he can help us this year.
