  1. If I’m having trouble sleeping tonight I’ll rewatch the Brewer offense try to operate in this one.
  2. Really nice job to keep riding the momentum despite the loss yesterday and take the series. Hot take: (or maybe not really a hot take at all) the Brewers’ pitching system in general (including Hook, the pitching lab, and all aspects of the organizational pitching coaching/development) is far more valuable than any individual player on the team.
  3. If I was an MLB manager filling out my lineup card, my first thought would definitely be “how can I get Andruw Monasterio the most ABs possible?”
  4. Been so disappointed in Ortiz. Last year he looked a guy we should be happy to build around.
  5. Yeah I’m mostly in agreement. Freddy shouldn’t have started the 7th, but 2 runs isn’t enough offense. No certainty they win even if he doesn’t start the 7th.
  6. This is going to blow your mind, but it is possible for a manager to make both mistakes of leaving a starter in too long and pulling a starter too early in different independent games.
  7. Zas and Anderson did all they could there. Murph put them in a lousy spot putting an already laboring Peralta out to start the 7th for an inning he never was going to finish.
  8. And yet he got no additional outs and two additional runners with his decision to send Freddy back out.
  9. Peralta had no business starting this inning. He was fortunate to make it through the 6th unscathed.
  10. The sudden downfall of Kest-daddy before his career even really began was always one of the biggest mysteries to me. I don’t think people fully remember how good his bat was for us in 2019. A .938 OPS as a middle infielder? For a rookie? Phenomenal. Granted his glove was always very suspect, but it was never really in question that he would hit. Until he didn’t. Things got bad, and then they got worse. So what the heck happened to him? It’s not like he was just some fluke prospect, he was a highly regarded first round talent. And even though it wasn’t long sustained success, it was 350 plate appearances. So it’s not like it was just some flukey stretch. So MLB pitchers just figured out the book on him after 350 plate appearances and he couldn’t adjust? That’s it?
  11. Bryce not looking so elite with the glove in this inning. Two chances for the easy pickoff at 2nd.
  12. Actually a really good comp for what we could get for Rhys. But with the context that when we acquired Peralta, thats all he was — an 18 year old lottery ticket that could possibly, maybe, become something. Wasn’t even a top 30 organizational prospect.
  13. Salary matters. Control matters. Hoskins has a relatively high salary and just a couple months of control. It’s just not about his wRC. I don’t know what you reasonably think that we would get for him.
  14. I think people are going to be disappointed. He's a one trick pony who can offer offense but not much else. That has value for sure, and there will be definitely be interested buyers, but a couple months renting his bat is not going to bring back what people are hoping for, especially for his price tag. You might get some sort of interesting prospect or two that you can dream on, but they'll be guys you need to look up, not household names that you're already familiar with from prospect lists. Mostly it'll be clearing some salary off the books.
  15. Murphy is fortunate that he doesn't manage in a market like New York, or his kids would have tears in their eyes after some of these press conferences this season.
  16. This team has "sellers" written all over it. They aren't going to win the division, and even if they flirt with .500 all year, the NL is much too strong to sneak up to even a 6 seed. Nothing in this lineup (other than the young guys that you aren't going to sell) is worth a crap, but they might have some bites on pitching. Hopefully it's a strong sellers market.
  17. All that stress and toll just to lose on a wild pitch on 0-2. 🤣 As Brewers of a loss as it gets.
  18. I think Abner can. Cruz is really good. Abner might have missed his spot but it was still a tough pitch at 99 on the lower inner part of the plate and Cruz hit it out. Sometimes it happens. It was key that he didn't walk the guy before him.
  19. Just days ago, in defense of the managerial staff, I brought up the point that the lineup couldn't hit its way out of a wet paper bag and that Arnold didn't do a good enough job assembling this roster. At that time you said it's basically the exact same roster that won 90+ games last year.
  20. Serious question, is Murphy scared of having the necessary conversation with Yelich of dropping him in the order? I get that it’s hard and there’s a lot of past and pride here, but my God, it is way overdue. He is completely toast.
