  1. Woodruff is really struggling with his command early,
  2. His average is down but his OBP is higher than last year, so he’s walking more too and hitting for more power. If he’s going to hit 25 HR and get on base 37% of the time I can live just fine with a 26% K rate.
  3. So if it’s the Celtics we’re likely getting Brown. What exactly is the point of this? To go from a bad team with a superstar player to a bad team with a star player?
  4. Hot take: the Brewers have 9 top 100 worthy prospects : Made, Pena, Jett, Pratt, Lara, Adams, Adamczewski, Fischer and Hardin.
  5. I think the long outings by Patrick are somewhat designed to keep him stretched out. I think they want to preserve the ability to start him or ask him for 4-5 innings in the middle of a game rather than just treat him like their other relievers.
  6. Supposedly Belgium not winning today is very good for the US but someone needs to explain it to me like I am 5.
  7. Call up Made and Fischer to Nashville or they’re never going to get to play again.
  8. Okay, but you are arguing that one player is just as good of a hitter from his platoon dominant side, as another hitter is from his non-platoon dominant side. That is not a super strong argument for Frelick as a player overall. It’s just saying that there isn’t a big difference when Vaughn comes to the plate with a bad R/R matchup than when Frelick comes up with the platoon advantage.
  9. In that case, he sucks, is total trash and should have been in Nashville by the end of April
  10. Well, be careful who you give away …. While I am by no means calling that a bad deal — Drew Rasmussen would sure look good in this rotation right now. I suppose both teams are probably happy with what they got out of that deal.
  11. Are prime Turang, Conteras, Miz, and Chourio just chopped liver?
  12. Lest things get taken way out of context like often occurs I am again by no means saying that Murphy sucks and shouldn’t be our manager. By and large I don’t really think there are any “special” managers and most just either win or lose 2-3 games during the course of a season and this can vary from season to season, Ned Yost won a World Series, presumably he was a very good manager that year. Would we all consider Ned Yost a very good manager in hindsight ? All I’m saying is that it’s far more organizational here and if they replaced Murphy with Rickie Weeks or whoever else tomorrow the beat is just going to go on and they are not going to suddenly devolve into an 85 win team.
  13. I’m not saying Counsell was “better” by any means but this is not a fair or apples to apples comparison when you’re talking about managers that took over their respective teams at very different times and when the organization was in a much different place.
  14. Unpopular opinion: Pat Murphy isn’t special and doesn’t really do anything for the club as far as adding wins. He’s fine, and he’s a good players’ advocate type guy and this probably kind of evens out his deficiencies in tactical game decisions, I guess. He's having similar success to what Counsell did in this era. And if they replaced him with Weeks tomorrow the Brewers would still win 90-100 games under Weeks. It’s just more of an organizational thing and the manager is just sort of the personality that happens to be along for the ride.
  15. Two games which could very easily end up being the H2H tiebreaker for the number 2 seed and a first round bye down the line.
  16. I’ll give you two major differences. 1) their bullpen is flat out better. That was essentially the difference today. 2) they don’t have to resort to a Joey Ortiz or Blake Perkins in their starting lineup when someone throws a LHP at them.
  17. 4-6 in their last 10. Not a disaster, but not great baseball lately.
  18. No you’re right. They swept us. To the original point — when it mattered, we were not in their league. We did not look like we belonged on the same field. Because we did not address weaknesses on our roster during the season and came in with a playoff roster that could not hope to compete against them.
  19. Sorry, do you mean the regular season sweep that the Dodgers regularly sleepwalk their way through because they know they can, or the playoff sweep when they actually start to take things seriously and subsequently made us look like a High A farm league team?
  20. They threw Miz and Harrison at them. Of course they weren’t going to lose by a bunch. But they still got outplayed by a better team. They may lose by 8 tomorrow.
  21. Holy small sample size. Serious contending teams still aren’t starting a .157 hitter for three straight games, even if he had a randomly oscillating non-awful small stretch of hitting.
