  1. Can’t remember where I saw it, but someone posted his numbers against sliders/sweepers this year and it’s downright horrific. I think he’s pretty well cooked. I don’t know if he has enough left to justify him being in the regular starting lineup by next season,
  2. He had a chance to do the funniest thing and leave the mound with a DX chop there. Missed opportunity.
  3. Thanks again Ashby. A walk, a balk, a wild pitch. You can’t at least just get shelled and make them earn it?
  4. I don’t know if he’s a clutch hitter yet, but he’s definitely available, which was the other qualification. And with the way the offense has been going, we need to try something to get a spark, just like we did with Pratt.
  5. I’m sorry, what? Are MLB players dropped off by a stork into the stadium for their MLB debuts with 5 years experience already under their belt, or do they have to actually get an opportunity first and then potentially become good players? I guess Pratt needs to get his butt back down to Nashville and we’ll have to talk to the Padres and see what we need to give up to get Rengifo back.
  6. We are sure making Bryse “scrap heap” Wilson work hard.
  7. [insert name of any current Brewer relief pitcher] scares me,
  8. I’m as hard on our guys as anyone about bad challenges/non-challenges but I have a hard time faulting Sanchez on that one. It was super borderline. Probably a win but not an obvious one.
  9. Yeah we are not coming back even against this terrible Cubs pen,
  10. Who? Yoho is their top option in the minors and he can’t be trusted either .
  11. I don’t know what kind of relief pitching is going to be available at the deadline, but we need it. There’s not a guy in the pen that I consistently trust.
  12. This is true. But early on from around 2005-2012 or so, it was tough to know who was pulling the strings some of the time.
  13. And it took him awhile, right ? When he first bought the team he was much more hands on. I think he wanted to make a mark and put the team back on the map. You saw a lot more aggression back in his early days, like trading for CC, Greinke, etc. Mark A was instrumental to signing Suppan, which was obviously a miss. But he learned from his mistakes and I think that’s one of the most important aspects of any businessman, I think. He’s learned that the best thing he can do is to hire a lot of smart people and let them do their job. And along the way, he did indeed put the Brewers back on the map.
  14. A side benefit of the Giannis trade is that I look forward to not having to tie up roster spots for his significantly less talented family members every year.
  15. I mean if this doesn’t prove that the Brewers organization and their success is more than one or two guys, it’s the scouts, the coaches, the assistants, the employees behind the scenes, everyone from the top down doing their job correctly, nothing will. That’s culture. That’s not a young genius with a magic wand who can turn anything he touches into gold, I think the fact that Stearns and Counsell were largely seen as spearheading our pre-2024 success and now are wanted out the door by many of the fans of the organizations that purged them from us, really speaks to that. The narrative for Stearns in New York was seen as a man who could do wonders with no money — now just imagine what he can do with money. Obviously, it’s not that simple.
  16. My guess is they get past Bosnia by two goals and their WC ends in the round of 16 against Belgium.
  17. Throw strikes with a late 4 run lead. Is it really so much to ask?
  18. On any given night I’ll say “what are you doing you idiot” and “awesome job Wild Bill” to Contreras within the same hour.
  19. I won’t cite his defensive stats this year because it’s such a tiny sample size but he’s very, very good. I believe he won 2 gold gloves in the minors. Its fair to say Ortiz has a longer track record of sustained defensive success but I believe Pratt has the higher defensive ceiling.
