I think the single dumbest take I’ve seen as a result of the Brewers is that they are “showing” pull air doesn’t matter. Like there weren’t - couple of better offense built on the back of pull air. Citing guys like Soto, Ohtani, and Alvarez as “all fields” power.1/x

Forgetinf that Soto, Ohtani, and Alvarez all had their best years when they pulled the ball in the air more. Also saying that pull air is easy to defend, when in reality hard contact up the middle is much more likely to be an out and not produce damage.

Lastly the Brewers know this it’s why they drafted Andrew Fischer, and got Bauers. The reason they have so many opposite field hitters is because they were easy to acquire and because they prioritize defense over offense not because they think Pull-Air isn’t valuable.

I’ve tried not to get involved but Baseball fans are citing sports science and Cricket fans are citing Jomboy Media wiffleball tournaments
Lol! Baseball Player couldn’t handle this simple wrist spin, and they talking about Cricket is a Easier sport 😭

Choosing Peralta over Michael King is going to world out absolutely horribly for a team.
They really only should be looking at Peralta. No reason to get a declining starter with similar peripherals to Andre Pallante …. (Pallante is the left and king is the right)

Everybody wins. Brewers fans get their World Series. MLB's laughable salary cap "arguments" get completely undercut. And the Brews finally get this out of their system so the Cardinals can resume dominating the NL Central

This is one of the most dominant postseason runs ever, but I do think it’s hyperbolic to call the 2026 Brewers one of the best teams ever. There are many other teams that were better over the 162 game season, and a 162 game sample is far more important for team quality imo.

If you over weight the playoffs sure. But objectively the 2022 Dodgers were substantially better teams.
This Brewers team is far and away the best team of the 2020s

Mizzou drops after a bye week due to Ole Miss loss to Texas. Florida rises after bye week due to Texas win over Ole Miss. Mizzou beat Florida.

Cardinals are easily a top ten org in terms of pitching prospects. We really might be back.
Some interesting findings on how organizations performed this year (Low A through AAA). Seattle and Tampa in a league of their own for getting ahead. Yankees dominated K-BB%.

There’s something ironic about John Smoltz praising Jacob Misiorowski for his elite extension and low release height, then hating on “Analytics” moments later.

This will almost certainly never happen. It’s simply that there is a ton of value in day to day game planning and in game execution. Not to mention players themselves don’t have enough time during most of the season to go see third party coaches.
With the consistency by which 3rd party coaches have become prevalent at the big league level, how soon is it before we see hitting coaches disappear from the dugout?

This isn’t St. Louis.

they’re building whole villages near stadiums off of the business of baseball but that will never be included in “baseball revenue.” and that won’t be reinvested in the teams clamoring for this either. I know this because that’s how it is with revenue sharing right now
You and a friend decide to split a pizza. There are eight slices. You each get four. That's not MLB's "50/50" revenue split. MLB's proposing they just get to call some of the slices "non-pizza" and only *then* split the pizza. So they get 5 or 6 slices and you get 2 or 3.

Yes lol
Did MLB create an army of bots with Pirates profile pics to push the salary cap narrative on this app?

good point, but what you haven’t considered is that people defending the salary cap on the internet can’t read
The MLBPAs proposal has league minimum guys basically doubling their salaries lol

The way the team hit late in the year I actually thought this might happen. Also I expect a new hitting coach to be trying to get the team to pull the ball in the air more.
News out of St. Louis: The Cardinals have parted ways with hitting coach Brant Brown, but expect to retain the majority of the major-league coaching staff for next season. nytimes.com/athletic/7715360…

It’s incredibly hard to overstate just how good the offer sheets of Broberg and Holloway have been for the Blues. I have Doug Armstrong criticisms but those 2 moves ere him putting his nuts on the table.
PRETTY PASSING PLAY from the Blues and Dylan Holloway makes it SIX (6) for St. Louis 🤯🚨
