Since luck is part of it, I’m guessing the crew is stuck with Wolf.

Prior to this year, he walked once every 7.8 AB’s, but this year his rate is once every 3. He’s put up at least a 700 OPS each year in Milwaukee, but he’s clearly the 3rd best catcher on the roster when you take his defense into account.

I’d take him in a heartbeat as a backup C in Philly.

We could save the Brewers the trouble and they would really OWE us!

Maybe they can trade the Crew a note that says “Nyjer, LOL. What did we tell you? Seriously though, no backsies”
