Houser would be decent as a back end starter on a team that could actually score runs. On this team, he's almost a guaranteed L.
-
Why are you getting mad that you displayed his stats to prove that I was wrong that he isn't a good hitting pitcher and I simply pointed out that the average pitcher is worse? He's been hitting well this year. I'm not saying in a vacuum to expect the pitcher to come through, but cumulatively I expect us to be able to cash in on some scoring opportunities and be able to score runs off terrible pitchers like Jeff Hoffman. And yet here we are again, continuing to piss away chances against a terrible pitcher and down by 3.
-
Yes, thank you. The average NL pitcher OPS is .329.
-
Guys making an unproductive out with nobody out like Yelich just did followed by the next guy making a productive out has just been killing us all season. Feels like it happens anytime we get a runner at 2nd with nobody out.
-
They also had the bases loaded with 1 out with the 9-1-2 batters coming up. Okay, lol. So the pitcher gets out and the leadoff guy has a 1 in 3 chance of adding onto that at that point too. Why do we just assume as a given that the pitcher makes an unproductive out? Houser is a pretty good hitting pitcher.
-
No, but he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Of course we would only get a single run from all that traffic.
-
That was the time we needed the HR from Houser.
-
Whew. Good call, but it was very close. I think Urias thought he struck out.
-
Huh? I am warming up to the trade, but 1) Feyereisen was definitely one of our top 3 relievers 2) Unless you are trading a couple garbage AAAA arms, which these guys were not, it still hurts your bullpen. We're still going to have to replace two relievers with depth that we don't have.
-
They quickly tried to kind of backtrack on the "Shaw has had a rebirth this year with Milwaukee" quote as soon as the numbers appeared on the screen.
-
I guess don't make him throw it to 1st or anything, Omar.
-
He puked on the mound in the figurative sense with that pitch.
-
Well, that should be plenty to bury us tonight.
-
Dead ball doesn't seem to be bothering Castellanos much this year.
-
Well, it's May 21st and Christian Yelich almost just hit his first HR.
-
Decent defender is selling Adames far short, but I think the rest of your take is spot on. Yeah, I mean to look at it another way, if Urias next two seasons mirrored the first two for Adames exactly, we'd be thrilled with that outcome. I'm gonna have to let the Grisham thing go as it's just gonna bug the heck out of me for awhile. As owbc points out it's a done, sunk cost and we just have to live with it and move forward.
-
The Rays always seem to be one step ahead of MLB, so I'm instantly suspicious of any deal they do where they seem to be giving up a lot of value. Perhaps Adames has been operating a secret dogfighting ring.
-
And my oh my what a HUGE bat they acquired too. I don't get this reaction. Can you not look up his career stats? He's an above average hitter at SS who averages about 20 HR per full season, and he is most likely replacing on the current roster... Pablo Reyes. It's not like we just blew all of trade capital and this is our big acquisition of the season. We traded two RP with mediocre peripherals who I did not realize were massive fan favorites until about 20 minutes ago. It's Brewcrewin07. He has a long history on here of reacting immediately and negatively to any acquisition that is anything less than a bona-fide superstar.
-
He starts arbitration next year, so we do not control him for several more years. He's about to become expensive, which will become a real problem if his production doesn't return. In essence the real reason your baffled is because your stretching the facts. Brewers look at Turang as their starting SS in 2023. That was true before this trade and nothings changed. Turang has less than 50 not great innings above High A in his career. I doubt they view him as anything just yet.

In essence the real reason your baffled is because your stretching the facts. 3 years is several more years. How is that inaccurate? It's true that he's going to get more expensive, but it's not like his price is about to skyrocket. He'll probably get what, 3-4M as a first year arby player?
-
To be fair, looking at this from the Rays side I would feel pretty underwhelmed with the return. I will be pretty bummed if JP or Drew end up as top relievers there, though.
-
Richards is definitely going to be in Milwaukee as well, I'm curious to see if he will be joining the rotation or headed to the pen.
