    We know nobody is gonna want Rhys at the deadline now, right?

    The Brewers have no one in their lineup who can hold a candle to the 2, 3, 4, 6, and 7 hitters in the Cubs’ lineup. So yeah. That’s a problem. As good as this organization has been at developing pitching, whatever their system is for developing productive MLB hitters is absolute dogwater, to put it nicely.

    I see Contreras (Cardinals) was chirping up a storm in the media about the incident at 1st yesterday. Wouldn’t be a Cardinal player if he wasn’t. Especially when he was 100% to blame.
  4. adambr2
    3 out of 4? I’ll take that.
  5. adambr2
    Fun fact: by OPS, that is our best hitter. It is mid-season, and by OPS, slap-hitting Sal Frelick, with single digit homeruns to his name for his entire career, is our best hitter. Good times.
  6. adambr2
    Ouch.

    It took Hoskins a bit, but he's finally starting to find his 2024 self again.
  8. adambr2
    I know it's Joey Ortiz and he's unlikely to have a better outcome anyway, but giving away an out down 6 runs (at that time) is wild.
  9. adambr2
    Nice win.

    I’m pretty sure they can and effectively will delay his free agency via the option, but not really intentionally for the purposes of gaining the extra year of service time. He’s a strong candidate to be non-tendered next year, let alone by his final year.

    I’d rather take a shot on the upside of Patrick in the rotation than the “devil you know” #4/5 starter that Civale is. I also don’t want to make rotation decisions based on who will be most upset and who will be most understanding.
  12. adambr2
    Yeah, I mean, I expected nothing for Civale, so it’s not like my expectations weren’t met in that sense. We just don’t have any organizational track record in being able to “fix” hitters, so I don’t have any faith that we will be getting anything out of Vaughn. The pitching development system in this organization has earned much more of the benefit of the doubt.

    Our plan next year for 1B for an already bad offense is one of the worst players from the worst team in the AL? Yikes.
  14. adambr2
    I figured we’d get nothing for Civale and we somehow still managed to fall short of that.
  15. adambr2
    Peppers screaming at Burnett to get down was so bizarre. There was damn near half a quarter left. I don’t know if he would have scored but he had a lot of green in front of him and at least gets into FG range.

    Had to expect some regression to the mean after the Brewers’ 4 run offensive explosion yesterday.
  17. adambr2
    Someone explain to me how Aaron Jones neither scored nor got out of bounds on this play. If you’re looking for a real actual reason why we lost, this is it.
  18. adambr2
    Well Collins was 11 years retired by the game in question, so… And Bahk was basically our offensive Jaire. Yes, it sucks that his ACL recovery failed. It sucks he never went back to being the same healthy guy after 2020. But like Jaire, we were used to being without him. Every team can play the what-if game with injuries to their best players all day. Would the Bucs have been able to make a Super Bowl run last year if they had never lost Godwin? Would a healthy Hutch have finally brought a Lombardi to Detroit?
  19. adambr2
    Yeah, the only guy from that playoff loss that was a big loss of a valuable player that we were used to having in the lineup, was Elgton Jenkins. If that’s the difference between winning and not even being able to score a single offensive touchdown, you’re not a contender. IIRC that was the game where Aaron Jones appeared to have a long breakaway touchdown down the sidelines right before halftime before he bizarrely slowed down to try to cut inside instead, neither scoring nor getting out of bounds to stop the clock, and we somehow ended up with 0 points on the drive. The defense played their butts off and the offense and special teams blew it. It sucked.

    Tonyan had 204 yards in the 2021 season and 2 TDs. Like, we can’t be serious here. Why do I care what he did in the weird COVID season 12-18 months earlier? Why does anyone? And Jamaal Williams had 17 TDs the following season. It doesn’t mean he was a special, valuable player. Neither is Robert Tonyan. If you are going to cherry pick the TD total of some flash in the pan TE in a season that literally *wasn’t even the one we are discussing* to help explain away a playoff loss, I don’t even know what to tell you. Are we able to chalk up every loss where Jaire or Bahk were rostered but unavailable as a bad injury fluke throughout the entire post-2020 era? That should cover quite a few of them.
  21. adambr2
    If we are going to use the absences of Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Robert Tonyan and Kevin King, to excuse a playoff game loss, we might as well just go ahead and acknowledge that we would go 20-0 every season if it weren’t for those darn injuries. Especially if we’re going to add two players to that list who were unavailable due to injury more than they were available from 2021-2024.
  22. adambr2
    Going to need the TLDR version.
  23. adambr2
    I never said Jaire was a bad pick. I literally said he was either the best 1st round pick, or 2nd best 1st round pick, in the Gute era.
  24. adambr2
    This is a genuine question, I’m honestly just asking — do you have any statistical/data backing on that “maybe 10%” number or is it just totally out of thin air? Also related to that, I’d like to point out that I was quoting his 1st round track record specifically, which is unrelated to his success on Day 2 and 3, where I think he has done rather well relative to most of his peers.
  25. adambr2
    This is true, but this has been a problem a lot more than just tonight.
