  1. I love how WAR is the end all be all for journalists in the sport, except when it comes to nominating the best players of the season.

    Yeah, okay.

  2. All Star voting is such a joke. Turang should be in the competition for STARTING and yet he doesn’t even make the team. Fuck the All Star game.

  3. Take away fan voting and let the players vote. At least then they’d pick the right guys.

  4. Unpopular opinion: I’d rather the Brewer players not participate in the ASG.

    Yeah, I get the honor thing, and the contract bonus thing too, but team goals must come first, and getting rest for a late-season run is essential.

    Just my take on it.

  5. Arraez is known. He’s won a batting title. But he’s mostly been playing first base this year, not second. He shouldn’t even be in the second base consideration.

    I agree that Turang should be on the All-Star team. No question. He’s the Brewers leader in WAR and he’s proven that he’s made a huge leap forward since last year.

  6. I guarantee Turang doesn’t care if we win the WS. So let’s do that! Go Crew!

  7. Holy shit I didn’t realise how big a gap there was between Fangraphs and BRef WAR for Turang.

    I guess TZR likes his defence a lot more than UZR. I wonder why
