I think Yelich will probably get a slight uptick at time in LF while Chourio is out, maybe a start or two a week. But yeah, mostly business as usual with Perkins just straight subbing for Chourio.
-
If you’re talking Twitter, X, any social media really, we could win 110 games and go undefeated in the playoffs to win the World Series and that would still be a cesspool.
-
A quib about him making a misplay in the field and questioning him leading off is people hating? I actually thought the lineup reactions were super mild tonight compared to what I expected when I saw it. These game threads must drive you crazy every day if you think that is bad.
-
Hey, Lockridge joins the party!
-
Gonna miss Chourio, but we are deep in the outfield. The IF depth is more shaky, but we’re well equipped to handle Jackson missing a month or so.
-
With apologies to Murphy, because obviously he did something right with the lineup today, I don’t quite know what he saw in Lockridge’s profile that made him think, “I need to get this guy the most possible ABs of anyone on the team in the first game from the first day he walks in the door.”
-
Any chance that Ortiz has been looking over his shoulder waiting for the benching the last month and now that he got the vote of confidence of no deadline move to replace him, he’s going to have a great last two months?
-
Huge hit by Andruw. I thought he got it all but I’ll take 2.
-
I need to find a jump that I can be as utterly incompetent as MLB umpires are and still be untouchable.
-
Not much noise from the “bench Contreras” crowd lately.
-
The Brewers have a lot riding on being right about Lockridge. It doesn’t sound like Chourio is due back anytime soon. I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, they’ve been right about Vaughn so far. Just saying, if Lockridge flops big time and the Cubs spend August taking over in the standings, there’s going to be a lot of second guessing.
-
Ok, but pretty much regularly playing otherwise. I just don’t think having a day off or two coming off the IL is unusual or a big deal. Forelock at 80% is still better than the roster alternatives.
-
I mean he’s been off the IL for like a week and playing every day since then.
-
Probably available off the bench and just being eased back in since it’s a LHP on the mound anyway.
-
We will call this the “hey, what did you think of our trade deadline?” lineup.
-
Brewers fans: “Hey, Cortes should be worth something, right?” Brewers front office: “Hey, how much do we need to give for someone to take Cortes off our hands?” Man, I give up trying to figure out what is worth what.
-
Is Freddy Zamora worth a look in the bigs to push Ortiz a little bit? I don’t know much about him, from what I can see he profiles as your standard light hitting, slick fielding middle infielder. He’s hitting better in Nashville this year though and is getting on base at a really good clip. Bad thing is, he’s also a righty so it’s not going to be a platoon option. Just trying to see since the trade deadline has expired if there are any internal options for the bench that might be better than what we currently have. I just don’t think Pratt is ready and I don’t think pushing him will be any good for him or us.
-
He’s been amazing. I would have to think the other shoe has to drop at some point, I can’t see how he just became a 1.150 OPS hitter overnight, but if he even continues at .900 that’s a massive offensive upgrade from what we’ve had at 1B.
-
I’m not going to get too worked up over today but we’ve got to stop comparing every other move to Quinn Priester. We acquired Quinn Priester on April 7th. He has been with this team essentially the entire season. He is not “help” we acquired at the deadline. He has nothing to do with anyone else’s reinforcements that they acquired today for the rest of the season. If you want to cite Andrew Vaughn, fine. Quinn Priester was closer to an offseason acquisition than a midseason acquisition. He was a nice pickup. In April. We move on.

Brewers acquire Shelby Miller and Jordan Montgomery from Arizona
adambr2 replied to bm1090's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
He’s a free agent next year, so he won’t unless he re-signs here. I wonder if the idea is to finish his rehab here, get him into the pitching lab and see if we can sell him on a prove-it 1 year deal next year? He was obviously a solid pitcher up until last year. That’s the only way it really makes sense to me. I mean we could have just sent them cash. -
Lockridge will (hopefully) barely play. More Perkins, more Yelich in the field.
-
I know we don’t like parting with young prospects especially in a move like this, but he hadn’t shown a ton, even in rookie ball. I don’t think Quintana was in our organizational top 30 anymore. I know he’s 18. As they almost are in Rookie ball. Someone said there’s probably a 98% chance he never amounts to anything, I think that’s probably accurate. There’s only so many guys in the organization you can even get on the field. It just opens up an opportunity for the next 18 year old. It's just not that big of a deal.
-
Yeah I think I would have rather kept Cortes.
-
What about MLB stats? (Agreed about taking El Paso stats with a grain of salt). I dunno. I just don’t see much to sleep on here, not at 28.
-
I’ll concede that I wish they would have (still can for 37 more minutes!) make a minor move for an infielder or two. The bench is really weak, and they’re an injury or two away from some black holes in their lineup. They’ve got plenty of help on the way, but it’s a ways away yet.
