23rd in MLB in ERA. https://www.mlb.com/stats/team/pitching?split=rp&sortState=asc Nah, that's solid. Good thing we traded away two members of that bullpen right? -
It's nice to see our hitters hammer mistakes every once in a while.

Nick Castellanos talked to Suarez & Farmer after he scored. He tipped them off to something on Suter How'd that work out for them?
-
The pen is bad posters are nothing but predictable.
-
I can't believe they called that 10 second violation on Giannis at that point in the game. My response when that happened was NSFW.
-
We will have the best SS/2nd defensive combo in a very long time.
-
He's likely to be DFA'd tomorrow when Adames shows up. Sadly there are quite a few candidates.

I like your optimism that we will score 2 or more runs the rest of this game. Glad to hear you are confident in the offense. Wouldn't matter if we did, Lindblom isn't done giving up runs. I didn't think we'd score 4. A loss by 2 runs or whatever Lindblom gives up still means the same.

I am guessing we aren't far away from eating JL's contract.

Cain is washed up

CC is the man, tons of respect for his opinion on baseball.

I'm sorry but pitching is judged based on getting outs, not based on how fast you throw. I'd love to see your pre-season posts that were so high on JP. There is the control thing as well. Both JP and Rasmussen were cheap, flexible and effective and were to remain at least the first 2 of those for quite awhile. Yes, this is a valid point. I believe DS thinks they can find more relief pitching either in the minors or on the waiver wire. We will see if he is correct.

Almost every reliever in baseball has a better arm than Suter so I don't know what point that was trying to make. I brought up your posts being high on JP because he had almost no value before the season started. The fact that he had a solid 19 innings this season really shouldn't change that much. He was coming back to earth recently and might not be a great reliever moving forward. I am not a huge fan of trading JP and Drew but you have to give something to get something. I feel this is a nice job of taking a calculated risk to try and improve the team.

Nah, I don't agree. Bullpen depth is important. The Kansas City Royals won a World Series with a totally mediocre team otherwise. The Brewers don't seem to agree with you much either, since they're very active in any contending year at upgrading bullpen depth at the deadline. I do agree that relievers can be volatile and tough to project and you have to keep then in mind when investing in relief help, but you can't just throw crap at the wall for 162 games and expect to get away with it. I am guessing you missed regular season depth in my post. You really only need a few "A" relievers in the post season to get the job done. It is pretty likely that if we make the post season that our "A" relievers would be Hader, Williams, Houser, Suter and maybe someone like Topa.

Regular season bullpen depth might be the most overrated thing in baseball.
-
Huh? I am warming up to the trade, but 1) Feyereisen was definitely one of our top 3 relievers 2) Unless you are trading a couple garbage AAAA arms, which these guys were not, it still hurts your bullpen. We're still going to have to replace two relievers with depth that we don't have. Hader, Williams and Suter are better in the pen than JP. Not sure why anyone would overrate him for a good 19 innings to start the year.
-
So we traded one "A" reliever and one "B" reliever to upgrade our shortstop position. I find it interesting that some of the "the bullpen is bad" people are the same saying we overpaid by trading none of our top 3 relievers. I am guessing we will see some Urias, Adames, Wong and Shaw to end games as that is spectacular defensively.

MLB has an issue regarding pitching dominance
wallus replied to patrickgpe's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
1. Lower the mound 2. Pitch clock 3. Get rid of infield and outfield practice throws. Make it 60 seconds until the half inning needs to begin. If all of the above fails, replace baseballs with softballs. -
It's crazy that some of you think Counsell is on the hot seat. Like this place has gone downhill crazy.

I'm really not trying to be a jerk but I wish that you wouldn't post just a link to Twitter. It kind of sucks to always click a link for a lame tid bit that I assume is breaking news when I see Twitter links posted in other forums. What I wish was that if a person posted a link to Twitter, the Tweet would just show up on Brewerfan like it does for other forums. Ah well. I second this.

I feel like you say this every season but I agree that it wasn't out.

What are you looking for Pablo?
