I do wonder if a Brewers WS win would start to change the narrative on how best to "win". The Yanks, Cubs and Astros were top 3 in MLB in homers this year and they all went relatively quietly in the playoffs. If the Brewers win, coupled with the Jays 2025 approach, perhaps we'll see a shift to more small ball moving forward. Or at least a bit more balance...

    Yes - exactly, young 2nd base prospects also suck. So how the F is Sean Keys going to land us the franchise's next keystone mainstay who's not an embarrassment like Varsho was? Are you trying to help us prove the point?
  3. Brownie19
    Someone suggested we trade him for a long term solution at 2nd base and said don't f*ck it up like the Varsho deal. We simply suggested that Keys doesn't have a ton of trade value and that trading him for some 2nd baseman who becomes a franchise cornerstone isn't overly realistic. That's it. It's not that complicated.

    It's wild to see Yamamoto out. That guy has been absolute nails. I obviously want the Dodgers to lose, but I love watching Yamamoto pitch.

    Yeah I saw a slow motion replay. He did. Ever so slightly.

    I'm pretty sure the hands have to disengage when you step off. Am I wrong? I guess I could look that up.
  7. Brownie19
    Did they call it a ball because he didn't break his hands when he stepped off? That's my only guess as to why that's a balk?

    I love seeing Gavin Williams going beast mode tonight. That'll leave a last imprint with Guardians fans. After coming in to close Game 4? Incredible stuff. Would Game 4 have been Williams' throw day? Did the Guardians copy the Marlins approach?

That would be different. I typically don't like changes that take strategy out of the game, but eliminating the shift would qualify - and I must say - I don't miss the shift AT ALL, so perhaps I should keep an open mind on this one. It's like they'd need lines in the OF that align with the straight up positioning - allowing you to play in one back still (otherwise they'd just put a circle out there you had to start within). To be fair - I kinda like every recent rule change. I think it's made the game better. I definitely want more doubles and triples!

    I knew my comments would draw this type of comparison. What you're missing here is that Rowdy's mom was diagnosed with brain cancer in December 2016 and she died in August 2018. This coincides with Rowdy's struggles in AAA. At 21, Rowdy posted a .297/.387/.530 147 wRC+ season in AA (124 games) - then his mom got sick and died. At 21, Keys posted a .293/.378/.451 134 wRC+ season in A ball (just 22 games) - Key's parents are both still alive. I'm also shocked you didn't mention that Tellez was a .305 hitter as a 19 year old in Rookie and A ball (combined). He always hit for a good average in the minors until the year he played while his mom was dying. Tellez is a decent comparison. He never climbed any prospect lists and was never worth much value. Keys won't either.

    Is Williams still starting after closing Game 4?
  13. Brownie19
    Just noticed Spencer Horwitz finished the year with a 98 wRC+ and just 0.1 WAR. Great 1st half, terrible 2nd half. Hope he can turn it around.
  14. Brownie19
    Good possibility he's another Rowdy Tellez type.

    Report: MLB sends memo to teams about rules for potential lockout https://thescore.com/mlb/news/3615943 That can't be good...

    Who doesn't like the Braves here and how would that be related to Shatkins?
  17. Brownie19
    We know - you remind us daily.

    I gotta give some props to Kiki Hernandez. The guy's been Gimenez with the bat in the regular season and has been worth -0.8 WAR combined over the last 4 seasons. However - come playoff time, he transforms into a new player and has consistently come up clutch. He's a career 123 wRC+ hitter in the playoffs, which is remarkable for someone who's been like an 80 wRC+ hitter since the 2019 season.

    A lot of fans are getting an eye opening experience these playoffs after non-stop complaints about how bad our defense was this year...

    Michael King is a beast. Love watching that guy pitch. All hands on deck for the Padres. This must be so hard for Mason Miller - 1st kid is on the way, team is on the ropes! He also needs to stop tipping his pitches. Walker Buehler to start Game 4 is gross, but the Padres will keep fighting. Love me some playoff baseball!

    Roberts showing his massive balls by moving Ohtani down in the lineup to 5th.

    The best hitter in baseball does cover up a low of flaws though.
  23. Brownie19
    Yeah there's no way Clement is non-tendered.
  24. Brownie19
    We're seeing a lot of this so far. Grant Taylor with a 4 inning save. Braves used Didier Fuentes for 3 2/3's last night, choosing NOT to use Iglesias until Muncy made it 3-2 with a bomb... Wheeler and Sale both used out of the pen in the WC series. I find the use of different strategies in the playoffs fascinating.

    This Ray Kerr story is unbelievable. How can you not be romantic about baseball!
