James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Reminder that they were picked 18th in the team fun draft this spring. They won 103 games and it was the most fun 6 months of baseball I've ever experienced. 050
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Wisconsin had a 96% post game win expectancy yesterday. They throughly dominated PSU and only had to comeback because of the picks that lead to 10 points. 033
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Just got the first full on Christmas commercial watching CFB on YouTubeTV. It is September 26 100
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Harrison has not pitched since Tuesday. You need to get him as much action this weekend as possible. Why are we going to high leverage guys in a game that literally doesn’t matter 200
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Miz looking sharp pitching on four days rest is very encouraging 020
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Give MLF a three point deficit and great field position and he’ll still somehow play for the tie 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 19/09/2026This was back from May’s near no hitter for the Cardinals against the Brewers. Once one thing went wrong, he spiraled. Have seen this at times with the Brewers too. If he doesn’t have his best stuff, he doesn’t battle and gets rocked 120
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 19/09/2026All four Orioles hits have come on May’s cutter. Contreras needs to be stopped 130
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Wonder if Miz will go on 4 days rest this Sunday or the following Sunday. If he pitches on that final day of regular season, he would be on normal five days rest for G1 of NLDS 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Four hardest hit balls so far have been by Brewers. They are 0/4 in those batted balls. 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Chourio AB's are starting to feel like 2018-19 Yeli AB's. Gotta be seated for them and you are almost upset if it's just a single or a walk. 040
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Happy Fangraphs Playoff Odds clinch day! Up from 99.9% yesterday. 020
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Lara takes far too many called third strikes for a guy known for a good eye 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 07/09/2026@rdtopp.bsky.social @jaymesl.bsky.social @badgernoonan.bsky.social forget who said it on this week’s MKE Tailgate. But someone said that PCA probably wasn’t getting to 40/40 this year (33 SB entering today) and I immediately thought “well now he’s stealing 5+ bases this series alone.” 320
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Missed this live. But ball 1 challenge is quite possibly the worst challenge decision of the year (a high bar to reach!) 1st pitch of an inning, tie game so challenges will be important, and it wasn’t remotely close. A first pitch in this situation should like never be challeneged! Unless it’s 100% 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Joey struck out looking and is already having a much better day than Hamilton would have if he started 021
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 07/09/2026The punt decision was mostly ok. The decision to burn a TO and still punt from your own 36 is the killer. Sure would be nice to have 2 TO left for this drive! 130
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Quite clear that Naylor is not a quality option either at the plate or behind the plate. 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 06/09/2026If the Brewers are not up 2-0 after their two home games in the NLDS, I'm afraid it will be a quick playoff exit. The quality starting pitching depth is suddenly gone 100
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 03/09/2026The National League Central racestatic.klipy.comIts Over Over: Toronto Player on CourtALT: Its Over Over: Toronto Player on Court 020
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 03/09/2026The Wrigley wind is just so overpowered. Shaw's flyout had no business being anything but a lazy flyball. .020 xBA! And it was to the track 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Me at the start of the inning - "Why the hell is Counsell letting Boyd stay in here? Me two batters later - "Ah I see now" 040
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Brewers about to win the next three games by 1 run each and take 3 of 4 despite a -10 run differential 150
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 27/08/2026William will challenge a random 1-0 pitch in the first inning inning but not this 3-2 pitch with two outs 010
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Murph is kinda the epitome of how little managers mean in terms of in game actions. He routinely benches guys at weird times, rides his bullpen too much and inserts himself into the game far too often. Basically does 2-3 things a week a “good” manager shouldn’t do 110
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 22/08/2026It’s certainly not the case but it would be quite funny if he was never that seriously injured and this was the Brewers way of ensuring he was fresh in October. To counter what the Dodgers have done the last two years 010
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 22/08/2026The Brewers NL Central Odds are at a season high above 90%. Quite the bounce back week after that Padres series. 071
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 17/08/2026The Brewers went 10-7 in their 17 games in 17 days with two west coast trips stretch. The Cubs have picked up 0 games on them since the all star break 1384
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 16/08/2026For an unbeatable super team, the Dodgers sure don't play good defense 130
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Totally forgot that the Braves/Brewers game next Sunday is in Williamsport. That means the brewers will play one more road game than home game against each of the top NL teams: Cubs- 6 home/7 away Dodgers- 3 home/4 away Braves- 2 home/3away/1 neutral 010
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 16/08/2026If the Brewers were in the AL, they would be 15.5 games clear of a the last playoff spot lol 030
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Great win! Now tomorrow is shaping to be about as big a game that an August game can be. Winner wins the season series and tiebreaker for potential bye or homefield. Also it's Skubal vs. Henderson 031
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Pretty sure Fox national broadcast stated Megill won't be available tonight as he's pitched four of the last five. He pitched Wednesday and Thursday of this week and that is it 161
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I find it quite funny that this trip is exactly 1 year after this stretch of 6 games. Wins 9-14 in the streak including a walkoff vs. the Mets, Miz beating Skenes, and a couple crazy comebacks in Cincy. 120
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I hate to do the whole “bitch about the schedule thing” again, but this stretch was the most obvious stretch to have a team just fall apart. Could see it coming from the day it was released last summer. 3 cross country flights in three weeks and one total day off. 110
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Mason Miller once again cannot find the zone with the fastball 100
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 12/08/2026If you are going to pull a starter if he allows one baserunner, just start the inning with the bullpen imo. 010
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Trying to steal a base with two outs on a guy that couldn’t find the zone with a fastball sure was a choice 100
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 11/08/2026If the back end of the padres pen is getting these calls, it’s not your night 010
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 11/08/2026You’ll never guess it but the brewers offense is once again sluggish after flying across the country for the third time in 2 weeks 120
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Murph just burned the DH and now only has an injured Joey left on the bench for extras. The DH spot is due up 5th so a decent chance it gets there. 120
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Maddening narrative from the Athletic newsletter this morning. They traded two of their top 20 prospects including one in some top 5s! 081
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Today was the second of three consecutive Mondays where the Brewers fly across the country the prior night and play the next day. They looked sluggish in both Monday games so far 030
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 04/08/2026The Pirates pen is a bottom third bullpen with an ERA of 4.34. They have given up 4 runs in 25+ innings vs. the brewers this year. And 3 of those runs were when they led 14-2 in the final game before the break 010
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 04/08/2026About as unlucky a three innings your could imagine 020
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Not sure Aaron Ashby, the guy with a 1.55+ WHIP over the last two months, is someone that should be called upon to put out a fire with nobody out. 010
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Jackson Chourio is OPS'ing .627 in July. Just 6 XBH in 95 ABs 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 27/07/2026@rdtopp.bsky.social I’m listening to this week’s tailgate pod and did the calendar math on Miz starts. They can get to the end of the season pitching him every 6th day without skipping a start for 10 starts. He’d pitch 6x in Aug (1st, 7, 13, 19, 25, and 31) and 4x in Sep (6th, 12, 18, 24). 140
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Christian Yelich has 3 barrels today in 3 ABs 000
James Vandenberg @jamesvandy3.bsky.social · 21/07/202619th most fun team preseason. Best team in baseball on July 20. Really boring season I guess 010
