BP Chats

DateQuestionAnswer
2018-04-16 14:00:00 (link to chat)Albers gets most of the Saves in Mil until Knebel is back?
(Rickey H from Oaktown)		He’s the consensus choice. I’m not so sure. Knebel is out another five weeks minimum and a lot can happen in that time. Hader has the stuff to do the job including the mentality. Barnes can do it. Over time it would not surprise me to see Taylor Williams get some high leverage chances. It’s a great opportunity for Counsell to develop a committee based on matchups. We’ll see. (Scott Delp)
2016-08-11 14:00:00 (link to chat)As a charter member of the Cody Ponce fan club, I'm curious if you think he'll be a Brewers representative in the AZL, considering he missed time in the beginning of the season. Or do you think the Brewers will be cautious with him?
(Mike from MKE)		If they're confident that he's healthy, I do think they'll send him to the AZL to accumulate innings. Nathan Kirby or Taylor Williams could be possibilities, too, depending on their rehab schedules. (J.P. Breen)
