Play him regulary…..like 5 times a week.

Brewers players are on a TEAM. It is a presupposition that each is going to try to his utmost to help the entire body do its best. Anything less than that should be news and of interest, especially to the manager who majors in this kind of thing...making sure all are pulling together, for each other, etc. This isn't hero ball or a clown show taking on dares. I liked Murphy not making a deal of it publicly. But you can bet it got his attention.

I am guessing Murphy told Chourio not again after the game...yet just laughed it off to the press not to make a big thing out of it. I mean, as a manager, this could really get out of hand with young guys in a blowout. What would the next "dare" lead to? Very slippery slope. How about if he hit with his helmet backwards? Didn't run at all to 1B? Got a hit and kept running until he was tagged out. Young males can be extreme idiots we've all seen when egged on by peers if no apparent repercussion or fear of consequence is there.

The throw by the first baseman...

Doubles i meant

Guessing Yelich bunts too..

Perkins and Black are obvious guys to remove from 40 man if they so choose to bring up a Fischer/Made. Fischer is white hot now at a mlb weak position, and Made is the #1 prospect in baseball. It's not crazy to try either up, not that I expect this. The option is there to try it though and not be tied up trying to keep others on 40 man roster.

Why not? Why put limits here? If Hamilton and Pratt get hurt, I think one is up.

If he can help us this year, do it. At least try it. Worrying about 2033 rules and how that plays doesn't make sense to me. Especially if the next CBA runs for only 5 or 6 years. Who knows what the clock looks like or how much $ we have to sign anyone.

With the situation we are in, meaning a great opportunity to get to the World Series, I try it now (or later this year). It is a small price to pay for a potential huge lift to the team. If he struggles, send him down.

Not that fair considering Fischer's success with Italy in the World Baseball Classic. Limited at bats there, sure...but there would be worse ideas than bringing Fischer up for a few starts at 3B. He has been off the charts hot this season. Call it a basketball term of heat check. Keep shooting until you start missing. I wouldn't mind seeing how his 1st round pick bat would play here, especially if Hamilton is banged up anyway.

If they are planning on trying out Sal or Vaughn at 3B, now is a unique time to try with Hamilton banged up a bit, a double header today with no days off this week, and a spark plug waiting for outfield at bats.

Yeah...the decision has largely been taken away from the team, you'd think. Not gonna NOW. Wait til the offseason and who would trade quality prospects for a few months maybe of a top catcher? Perhaps a team or two. Maybe.

Starting this early, but with the 2027 halfish maybe season near us and with Contreras pricing himself out of Milwaukee via FA, I wonder how we view him. Do we trade him NOW and reap a good haul for him? I shutter to think of the backlash that would happen in a year we have high hopes. We have learned from the Hader Trade, I think, but ironically that Trade brought us Contreras indirectly. How about this offseason? Then again, can we expect any type of good Trade in an offseason that could go mostly or even throughout 2027? Or is he like Adames? Keep up this year and next. Let's go for it. Lots of intangibles there.. not worth it's gold in a trade. I am probably in this camp. You thinks?

Almost just want Henderson to wait until after All Star break to start a game for us....bullpen it a game or 2.
