Curious about the economics of baseball & the #Brewers. Not an expert, yet.

Brewers can clinch a Postseason berth today with:
• Win tonight against the Reds
• Losses by both the Diamondbacks and Padres
They can clinch the NL Central as early as Sunday.
Fischer is pretty hilarious. He has some of the best batted-ball quality in the minors, refuses to hit ground balls, and doesn't chase.
But he misses a ton in the zone. Very Murakami-coded.
@MLB has proposed banning deferred compensation in new contracts under the next CBA.
Existing deals would be grandfathered in, meaning contracts like Shohei Ohtani’s wouldn’t change. H/t @MichaelaB_22
Jacob Misiorowski leads all starters in proPitching+ at 120, the best executed arsenal in the league this season. The 1.73 ERA and 222 strikeouts in 151 innings back it up. Chris Sale is next at 115, Logan Gilbert at 112.
The Brewers farm system is relentless 🔥

The Brewers just concluded a stretch of 17 games in 17 games that included parts of two west coast trips.
Along the way, they were consistently short at least one reliever and multiple starting infielders. They had stretches of poor situational hitting and questionable defense.
They went 10-7. For all that's gone wrong, that's more than enough during what was always going to be a tough stretch.
The calls went out Saturday. Teams needed to submit their best-and-final offers. Tarik Skubal was being traded that day. Free at ESPN: How baseball’s economics penalize small-market teams that want to go for it and helped deliver Skubal to the Dodgers. https://t.co/CRIPhfIJhE
Jacob Misiorowski posted the best starter proPitching+ grade of the 2026 season at 121, and the 1.63 ERA with 195 strikeouts backs it up. Jacob deGrom graded next at 116. That Misiorowski arsenal is a problem.
THE BREWERS MAKE A SPLASH!
Dustin May and his high-octane arsenal are headed to Milwaukee! The talent has always been there. If any team can unlock his full potential and get him back to his best, it's the Brewers.
Antonio Senzatela would benefit from getting out of Coors and into the Brewers pitching lab!
Just leaving Coors he’d pick up a lot of extra movement on his pitches, but there’s likely some other inefficiencies the Brewers have honed in on to further bring him into demonhood.
