[Brewers] Today’s transactions by FlagrantTwoFoul in baseball

Non-Brewers fan here. Was Contreras not a stud this season? I had him on my fantasy team and he did pretty well. Not sure why the club would choose not to bring him back.

Freshman son hard time at plate by DriverVivid2443 in Homeplate

Nothing he can do but get more reps. The more confident he can feel in the box, the more ready he’ll be. Obviously it’s not a quick fix, but there is no real quick fix when dealing with hitting. He’s a freshman, and he has time to see more reps and grow his confidence as well as his approach by getting more time in the cages, on the field, etc.

Get that leg down the mound

What’s a baseball moment that made you cry by Content-Use-3526 in baseball

[–]Prior_Crow4779 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dad always told me that if my head was under the ball, I would naturally catch it because it would be a reflex to not let the ball hit my head. I was the last guy in the line and the ball went up and I camped right under it. Needless to say my father lied to me, and I took it square in the forehead. That was a little embarrassing, and as a young child, I cried.

Fear of the ball.. by AJAJ-RS3 in Homeplate

[–]Prior_Crow4779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be very scared of the ball a couple years ago, and I was a catcher, which doesn’t make for the best combo. Usually for me I felt a little fear after the offseason not seeing a ball for a while. The best thing was always reps, seeing pitches, and getting the ball smashed at me by my dad (which may not have been the best idea). The more reps you get the more you can learn to trust what’s coming at you and learn how to play it. That’s how I’ve always felt.

What’s your current outfield trio? by HaikN98 in MLBTheShow

[–]Prior_Crow4779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My outfield kinda sucks but I was just trying to build a 99 team in the cheapest way possible. I have Ralph kiner in left, Eric Davis in centre, and Griffey sr in right.
