@Dom_Cotroneo It’s time. The left side of infield NEEDS an overhaul.

[Brian Sutterer MD @BrianSuttererMD]

I want to clarify my point better:

In normal physiology and conditions, creatine supplementation shouldn’t be blamed for causing whole body cramps that require hospitalization.

We also have to be careful of the difference between creatine and creatine kinase.

Creatine kinase (CK) is a biomarker of muscle damage and is different than creatine. CK is released into the blood with muscle breakdown and then it can damage the kidneys and cause death. This is caused rhabdomyolysis and you’ve seen it in the news with other athletes.

Rhabdo occurs in athletes with intense bouts of exercise. Medical conditions and supplements can contribute to the risk of rhabdo, but creatine does not directly cause rhabdo. There have to be a lot of other contributing factors that lead to full body cramps and hospitalization.

So blaming a very concerning health event on taking too much creatine means either he was taking SIGNIFICANTLY more than the label recommended AND wasn’t hydrating well AND had an intense workout.

Creatine is just piece of what was probably a far more involved episode and brushing it off like it was a simple creatine dose issue puts unfair blame on what’s a very safe and well studied supplement.

@CyrtHogg Pretty over the excess “rehab” stints that occur in this sport. Can’t believe the amount of Brewers major leaguers that re-injure themselves on pointless rehab assignments.

@AdamMcCalvy Man that’s pathetic.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@AdamMcCalvy A “comebacker” to the mound is an awfully generous take there Adam.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@esidery A Kevin Warren special. 🤣

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Dom_Cotroneo It’s an excellent move by the Org. Hate to see Freddie go. But it’s the right decision.

[Andy Herman @AndyHermanNFL]

Regression to the mean is going to be lovely in 2026.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Peter_Bukowski Nope. It should count against Matt LaFleur, for throwing out WR6

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Peter_Bukowski Both CB positions need a massive overhaul in the off-season

@40kmillionaire @Datapleaz @Todd_Rosiak THIS x 💯

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Dom_Cotroneo Gonna need the updated stats for Joey O with the bases loaded Dom. He’s gotta be approaching record levels here. In both total number of appearances and runners LOB.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Strachota73 @BrewPack8 I hear ya on all that! Certainly a good “problem” to have. Most likely it will work itself out

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Strachota73 @BrewPack8 Also, let’s not kid ourselves. Since June, Priester has been the best pitcher on staff.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Strachota73 @BrewPack8 Just my opinion…but too much volatility with those 2. I think they’d actually pair nicely in a game 3 together. Playoffs need stability and guys that can pitch around the HR.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@Strachota73 @BrewPack8 Neither…Priester.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@metraUPNW Another day of unreliable commuting this week. Tough stretch for you guys.

[Matt Johnson @MJ_Strength]

@qheintz @Dom_Cotroneo Well said. They just aren’t good. Its not a matter of “wait for the pitching” or “wait until they get healthy” anymore. The team is average at best. ZERO ability to generate any form of offense.
