  1. Campusano is 1 for 24 in throwing out runners this season…seems odd. We have had two to three dozen opportunities to run tonight with speed on the bases.
  2. Are we not running tonight for some good reason? Even this inning…
  3. Black watched about what, a dozen pitches, without attempting to steal…what’s the deal? He had 55 SB last year.
  4. How bad/good does he have to play to have both sides pick up the mutual option for 2025? Gotta be somewhere close right now..
  5. Perkins could be the odd man out in the OF. He can be optioned down and kept as insurance. Mitchell, Frelick, Chourio, and Yelich (and Perkins) can split time in the OF for the next what….4 years! I can’t imagine this team not trading for at least one SP, even if it is last minute before the deadline and only involves a last place team’s 3rd or 4th best pitcher on an expiring contract. Better yet, adding another top starter for the 2024 and 2025 season would look really good though…a definite need this season and a great piece for next year’s rotation along with Woodruff, hopefully.
  6. I think Ortiz will move to SS in 2025 for the next 5-8 years, leaving Turang at 2B for the same time period.
  7. Peredes too…just great arm movement…
  8. Just love how Myers reaches so far back…great arm motion.
  9. More like he didn’t want to be the goat and felt his best chance of getting on base was with the bunt….I still struggle with his explanation by his locker.
  10. Gotta believe Black’s defense is subpar everywhere or he would be up at the beginning of the season. However, his bat is good enough that Murphy hits him third. He is fast too, and the Brewers could use yes another stolen base threat on the lineup or off the bench. And I think the DH position and spot start at 1B might fit him well for us. Still cannot believe his bat is worse than Turang or Frelick…..there is a carved out spot for him on this team.
  11. Who would this even be? B to B- starters, sure, but is there an ace on the market? Is there a Sabathia even out there?
  12. For one…no trade because of the Hader trade aftermath. So no. For two, this wouldn’t be a move to help the team this season either. I think players and fans expect one or two good starting pitchers to be added in the next month and a half, not us dealing our starting SS for more prospects. And for the third strike, we are loaded with prospects already and we should be feeling a Rule 5 and 40 man crush this offseason already.
  13. THE story, of course, is that we are up 7 games in the division on June 11. And doing it with the following… _ 22nd in payroll, a third of Yankees and Mets _ a severely makeshift and injury-riddled rotation including Woodruff, Miley, Gasser, Burnes (trade), Junis, Ross, etc. _ a new manager
  14. Exactly. Just get in and get hot.
  15. And I can see Black being here soon too as our left-handed 1B. I can’t see us adding an infielder. If Murphy hits him 3 for multiple games, that tells you a lot.
  16. I cannot imagine the Brewers looking for another OF who is injury proned and owed almost 60 million dollars like Roberts. They have an abundance of cheaper and healthier options, just an outstanding position for a small market team, and gambling on an injured OF especially seems unneeded.
  17. There should be a bunch of quality upgrades to trade for at SP once late July comes around and the Wild Card picture gets clearer. Even on Florida and Chicago (AL) alone, there are five or six possibles. Starting pitching is the obvious weakness. I am all for someone who can pitch next year here too even if it costs us a bit more prospect wise. We will be having a 40 man crush starting this offseason….no use in standing pat just to put more up for Rule 5. We are in an excellent position to add a SP rental AND a long term SP for the next few seasons.
  18. Code is DAYGAME...it should work. I just checked. But if you are confused, it might be because those HALF prices are the half prices...not the regular price. As themed for this year, Brewers jacked up half price game prices A LOT!
  19. I hope he can do home games this year and and a couple more yet… If his mind and voice are fine/ok, just get the guy to the stadium and have him do his thing. And even if it is just 20 games a year, I think the fans would be thrilled, and it would be good for Ueck’s mental side, as well.
  20. Hader hijacked CC’s way of using relievers. He “couldn’t” use Hader the way he wanted (more than one inning outings…not always the 9th when Knebel and Jeffress were around). CC chose not to make an issue of dealing with Hader and his agent, and the bullpen was less match up based, Hader coulda shoulda came in to finish the 8th when leading a few times, as well. I think what CC did for the Brewers was still fantastic. I will give him an A- for two division titles, several playoff appearances, and a NLCS Game 7…so close to a WS. The big impress is doing it on a payroll ranked around/between 17-24 of the 30 teams yearly.
  21. Phillies’ 4 of 5 first batters were lefties. Brewers could list Koenig as starter next three games! Or Koenig, Milner, and Hudson. This either makes Phillies move lefties down in order or make switches with righties. With a hot team like Phillies, get them doing different things. Also, this allows Brewers starters who maybe go 5 innings the opportunity to face the bottom of the order three times and not face the top of the order three times.
  22. Not sure why a normal high leverage guy isn’t on now…
