Despite a lot of inconsistency from the kids, Brewers have been fun through 5-15.

Chourio in striking out too much but the flashes of a 19 year-old figuring it out are fun.  Betting on a big 2nd half

Ortiz always had the glove.  If he keeps hitting like he is, he’ll have been a big pickup in the Burnes trade and make the eventual Adames departure easier.

Turang plays steady defense and if he can keep that OBP at .350+ and steal bases, he’s fine as your everyday 2B.

Frelick is probably not an everyday player but his glove makes it hard to take him out of the lineup.  If he can figure out a way to get on-base more, he’ll be a good 3/4 type.

Gasser has two starts and is flashing why they’re high on him.  We’ll see where he is in a few weeks after facing tougher lineups and how he handles adversity but I’m pretty bullish on him as a good rotation piece.  Not an ace but definitely a solid innings eater in 2024 terms.

Finally, through this point in the season, William Contreras is a MVP candidate and making an argument as the best catcher in the game.  Kid has been an absolute stud

I pondered it and have concluded that there is not enough data to make a real conclusion.

I lean toward coincidence, though.

Dolphins/Packers on Thanksgiving at Lambeau is a great choice, should be an entertaining game. I personally enjoy primetime games with good teams that aren’t rivals.

Gottlieb is a real steal for UWGB.

Give the admin all the credit for this hire.

So six division opponents in the last eight weeks of the season?

From what I saw, taken with a grain of salt.

Week 12 MIN
Week 13 @ DET (Thanksgiving)
Week 14 AZ
Week 15 @ MIN (MNF)
Week 16 DET
Week 17 Seattle (TNF)
Week 18 @ GB
