    Again, again, again….he hits 4th because he is good at SS? Not logical.
  2. rickh150
    Fair point, but there are all kinds of hitters who cannot hit certain pitches and have to live off a pitcher’s mistake. And yes, the tools are there. Hiura 2022/2023 with Brewers is still a better hitter than most. And in an era when hitting #s are down, I cannot see how he is undervalued at the DH/spot start 1B position.
  3. rickh150
    Literally a “miscellaneous news” thread. So here is miscellaneous for you… 2022 Hiura is hitting better than 2024 Adames. One doesn’t deserve a roster spot. The other has no talk of moving him down in the order….hitting .723this year, .717 last year.
  4. rickh150
    And yet he is hitting 2nd for MLB team….in minors, he usually hits #3 or #4 yearly. I am not saying he is top hitter in the game and his struggles are notable. He is not making things easy on himself with dry spells, for sure. However, I think he is a better hitter than half our team…easily. The new rules everywhere with a DH spot and a 26 man roster (not 25) are for him.
  5. rickh150
    Not really. Adames plays a position well at SS and his value is high because of it. However, BATTING ORDER does not take into account position played in the field. Why do we have to bat him cleanup? Because he plays a good SS?

    .765 OPS in 2022 with Brewers (career .770)…..yanked around constantly up/down AAA, up/down order, not playing for a week plus, pinch hit……mismanaged to the highest hills. Just put the guy at the DH and hit him consistently low in order. And then Inconceivable to let him hit monster numbers in AAA (like usual) and not be given opportunity when like a dozen plus guys do awful at DH in 2023…..and we PAID him a couple million to stick around in 2023! Makes and made no sense! Counsell was content to hit Winker, Adames and Rowdy #2-4 for half the year too. Adames lifetime .755 OPS hitting cleanup for Brewers….Hiura not good enough to hit anywhere in lineup at DH, mind you.

    Better career OPS than Adames, who hits #4 for us.
  9. rickh150
    And he is up again! Beating the Cubs! The Angels had him at 2B over the weekend….batting 2nd! Hitting 3-8 in two games. And his OPS still clearly higher than Adames. Hope he continues to get a chance to play. Always thought he got the shaft EVEN when he was hitting well.

    Rentals don’t make sense to me unless we give up little….add on for this year and at least one more.

    And love the two pickups to the rotation already, even though I cannot believe Keukel is getting guys out and giving up no run games. Great no/low risk trades that are needed!!
  12. rickh150
    I love having a great minor league system, but I think the fan base expects the team to try when we get into July six games up. I hope we trade at areas of depth and get a playoff game caliber starter and a rotation piece for next year.
  13. rickh150
    Williams/Megill can both get save situations. However, I cannot believe we throw Williams in save situations right off the bat.
  14. rickh150
    If we struggle in bottom of 8th, I think it might be wise to let Megill go 1 and 1+ today….off tomorrow.
  15. rickh150
    Get wm tomorrow and the road trip is tolerable...
  16. rickh150
    I give him this guy and thru Ohtani…

    Still selling on Stubhub in the 4th inning? Much cheaper now! Ha.
  18. rickh150
    Worst seat in house on Subhub was around $60

    0 wins in LA…bad road trip (2-5) 1 win in LA…content with west coast road trip (3-4) 2 wins…good trip (4-3) 3 wins…wow (5-2)

    Off day Monday….bullpen should be wide open for three games.
  22. rickh150
    Adames is a cleanup hitter with a 755 career OPS. Glad he was on fire for a third of the year, but his normal spot on a good team is 7th. Hoskins career OPS is .833…still have hope for him.
  23. rickh150
    Lots of movement on the ball….wiffle
  24. rickh150
    Before this series, I was content with a 3-4 road trip…not happy, but content. Really tough to win 3 of 4 anywhere. Now it’s a bad road trip with no wins in LA, a contented one with a win in LA, and a great road trip if we win the series in LA.

    Murphy talked about giving Frelick starts at 3B before the season. This is not far-fetched. Regular? No. Kinda like with Black at first. And it looks like he is 5’10” again…not 6’0”.
