  1. "Moderators" is just fine, thanks. I'm sorry you have been offended at attempts in keeping discussions respectful, but dropping passive-aggressive "civility police" references doesn't help.
  2. Two started at the same time, we'll stick with the one that has a couple more replies at this point.
  3. I dunno, I think the prospect of Frelick LF, Mitchell CF, and Weimer RF is awfully enticing. That's a GG-level outfield. Obviously one of those spots would go to Chourio, but if Weimer doesn't pick up the bat, he becomes a platoon piece/defensive replacement for CF/RF. Regardless, there are plenty of ABs to split between 4 OFs, assuming Yelich becomes primary DH. If Yelich could somehow play a mediocre 1B it would solve so many problems.
  4. I'm not saying we shouldn't try him again, but it's worth looking at those lines again. A 42% HR/FB%??
  5. From the Brewers own tracker, so far it's 1-10, 13, and 16.
  6. This is a Sal Frelick thread.
  7. I wonder if this is indeed the case, it'd be interesting to hear from draft picks (although they may not be entirely unbiased at that point). Obviously you have the "prestige" teams, and the hometown favorites, but beyond that I do wonder if the Brewers are getting a good rep.
  8. Let's pull back on the vitriol and disdain.
  9. Indeed, let's argue without attacking. We're all Brewers fans.
  10. If we don't trust him to pitch in a game with a 4 run lead, he shouldn't be on the roster.
  11. Yeah, a CGSO is definitely a possibility at this rate.
  12. Yelich and Contreras both over 1.000 OPS for July. Yowzas.
  13. Top prospects don't necessarily equal higher level of competition at that time though, just that they have higher ceiling. AA isn't solely composed of top prospects, nor are "AAAA" players all complete scrubs. They just may not have enough to make the leap. They were better than AA players, or they would be demoted to AA and let someone else take their spot, If AAA is the top prospects who are there for half a year to a year, plus everyone who already advanced from AA but isn't good enough to stick in MLB, then by my reckoning this is clearly superior competition to AA. I'm confident that if the Sounds and Shuckers switched leagues for a week, the AAA players would outperform the AA players.
  14. I'm not convinced this is accurate, and your two paragraphs are contradictory. If AAA is where you move your top prospects before you want to call them up, how can the talent be lower in AAA? By definition your top prospects are there. How many prospects have jumped from AA to MLB? The percentage can't be that large.
  15. As someone posted in the Weimer thread, this makes me pretty skeptical about OAA as a stat. Brice's reputation has always been as a defensive wiz, and he's made so many plays this season that have confirmed that rep, I can't take a stat seriously that says he's mediocre. I'm confident anyone on the Brewers staff would also laugh at that assertion.
  16. Counsell's smart enough where as long as Hader wouldn't pitch a fit, I could (would want to) see him mix and match and not have either one of them installed as closer. That would be an elite bullpen, but highly improbable. On the other hand, if your offense isn't good and you're not going to add much of value, just go the other direction and play 5 inning games...
