Quote from: GB Warrior on October 16, 2025, 06:55:01 PMI'd think it makes sense if Ashby hasn't been pitched a ton, was pitching well and the dodgers hadn't seen him twice already. Alas.

This. I don't understand why he threw almost 20 pitches in the spot he did in G2 if he was going to be available to start today. The way Ashby vs Koenig have been used this series has been weird.

Quote from: MuggsyB on October 16, 2025, 08:20:07 PMExcellent points.  You would take 10 runs in 3 games 100/100 times.  But the bats have been an abomination for Milwaukee. 

I would take 0 runs in 3 games but perhaps I expect more from MY team

Tigers have offered Skubal Garrett Crochet money.  Skubal wants $400 million.

Unfortunately I don't see how the Dodgers afford him after their money printing machine got jammed

The Mariners have looked terrible in these 2 home games. Just need one good pitching performance to turn it around, though. (He said, hopefully.)

 Flacco, Rodgers, Scherzer all out there throwing in their 40s.

The difference is that Rodgers and even Flacco had looked quite good this year, whereas Scherzer had just looked old and done. But the Mariners turned him into Nolan Ryan, just as they turned Kerry Carpenter into Babe Ruth and Andres Gimenez into A-Rod.

Quote from: GB Warrior on October 16, 2025, 07:40:59 PMDon't need to see Yelich back in a Brewers uniform, thanks

Just looked up his contract, he's got two more years, then a mutual option year, and then he will remain on the payroll for $2.3M/year until 2042 to pay out the deferred money on his deal.

No he has THREE more years before the mutual option.

And is that deferment new? Because I have looked this up before and hadn't seen it.

Yep. 3 years. I misread. My bad.

Quote from: The Sultan on October 17, 2025, 11:52:41 AMOK thank you.

Great example of why the Brewers sign them up early or else let them walk.

The contract is not even really an albatross. If healthy (!) and not having the strikeout rate of Joey Gallo in the playoffs (!!) his contract isn't egregious. Of course, neither of those are true

Yeli was well worth his contract this regular season.  I truly believe he reinjured his back in early August. If we weren't in line for home field advantage through the WS, my guess is he would have been shut down. In hindsight, they should have put him on the DL and brought up Rhys as a DH. Given Yeli a true break and given Rhys time to show if he had anything left in the tank.

Next year they may need to put him on an Embiid level load management plan. Only DH and sit every other game.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Think batting Yelich in the 3-hole will pay dividends next game when they try to prevent going down 5-0

I just wish the Brewers had the scouting and coaching to develop these homegrown starters the Dodgers have.
