One last thing from last nights game The double was hardly a smash hit. It left Fowler’s bat at 69.2 mph with a 46-degree launch angle and hung in the air for 4.4 seconds, according to Statcast. Batted balls with that profile are hits just 24 percent of the time.
Bob Nightengale @BNightengale · 10m It’s that dreadful time of year for scouts; The Milwaukee #Brewers are merging their pro and amateur scouts into one department which has resulted in the loss of several jobs among pro scouts.
On another topic......I know the MLB draft is a crap shoot.......but Gavin Lux is destroying AAA pitching....a Wisconsin kid that Dodgers picked 20th.......when we picked Ray at number 5. Would have been a nice option for our future SS......... Ok,I'm done......
Brewers bullpen has stunk all year........Guerra should have been out of that inning with a tie game. He did about as good a job as could be expected entering the game with bases loaded an nobody out. That ball has to be caught. End of story. Brewers are just a 500 team........it's been pretty obvious for a long time that they just aren't good.
