Deja vu here. They are very well prepared for Boyd. Not chasing horsefeathers.
-
Are you intimidated, Matt, what the hell?
-
Last time Boyd faced these guys his command inexplicably unraveledand they hammered him. Can we not repeat that?
-
Iowa call ups have our 2 most recent hits with the bases loaded.
-
Missed strike 3 almost cost us a run. Durbin just missed that.
-
I was thinking shoulder as well.

I did not know this but apparently William Contreras has been playing with a fractured middle finger on his left hand since May 7. Tucker's is on his right ring finger, so both injuries are on their drive hands. Contreras has a 122 since his injury. I have a feeling Tucker has another injury that hasn't been disclosed. Even bad mechanics brought on by pain or discomfort shouldn't completely neutralize a players power like this. Is his swing speed showing decline?

I have a feeling one team will adjust accordingly to the conditions and 'babip us to death' and sneak a couple line drives into the basket, while we hit 105 mph rockets that turn into 300 ft cans of corn.

He's not a Boras client. Do some research before you post.
-
Milwaukee is built the same way. Cut the crap. Every team is building the same way. How do you guys not realize this?
-
BTW people, Happ is 2-32 career vs Peralta with a homer. They were right to give Caissie a shot.

He had half of our hits and we had no hard contact. The whole lineup looked like dog horsefeathers when they actually swung the bat. Changeups are killing the offense, especially the LHB.
-
Tears are flowing

Moore dogged it a lot last year and doesn't exactly get a pass because he didnt trust the coaches. If that were the case, why did he sign an extension? He gave up on a lot of plays and was highly disappointing. He needs to prove himself again this year.
-
His swing looks slow and laborious.

This offenses inability to hit non-fastballs is embarrassing, and my theory, is that the approach has been so effective against them that they cant get out of their heads and now they aren't even on the fastball. Im ok with being wrong but to me theres a lot lacking in the preparation dept IMO To me, far too often these are going out there with no plan besides try to pull the ball. Doubles to the pull side are tough these days unless its right down the line or a low line drive. Our pulled-air contact is finding a lot of gloves because of defensive alignment, not bad luck, and we just dont hit many low line drives. But now that we aren't on the fastball, almost all of our hard contact is up the middle lately and dying near the CF warning track.

I mean they just threw away Bellinger and 20m so who cares
-
Thats how it started though in 2017. They fell apart and we took the division, the moniker took off.
-
This forum has severely underrated the Brewers for 6 years. They still like to throw the 'vaunted' joke around. They toppled our dream team and have owned the division for more than half a decade. They just went on a .750 tear for a 3rd of a season, we cant win 6 games in a row.

Jed gambled that he had a viable 3B and enough starters to get the job done. Since the deadline Shaw is a top hitter in the league and the rotation has the best ERA. What could he have done to prevent 5 guys going from 850 OPS to 500?
-
Im talking a out the offense had a 74 wRC+ going into this game
-
Good things sometimes happen when you dont chase, when you swing at strikes, when you rarely whiff, when you hit it where its pitched, etc etc. They have literally doubled our offensive output this month, so let's stop pitching about the curiosities. They have a 156 to our 74. They have 34 doubles, we have 16. They have 28 HR, we have 12. Our hitters are predictable and have made themselves easy to defend. The 4 seams have dropped dramatically and none of our guys can slug a sweeper or a changeup.

Haven't seen a collapse so rapid and complete since they detonated the WTC
