My fantasy Brewers offseason for 2013-14 now includes signing Cruz and Jose Abreu.

 

1) Gomez

2) Braun

3) Cruz

4) Abreu

5) Lucroy

6) Ramirez

7) Segura

8) Gennett

 

Sick. Even minus Garza. Oh well.

Yes, most guys don't get too much crap. The problem is Braun was an MVP and was way too vocal about his denial. Also, the thought out there is he ruined someone's life (the tester). I'm sure it's somewhat overblown, but he just came across as a wanker to the general public, hence the booing.

 

Cruz is crushing. Could he have played 1b for us????? If Yuni can, anyone can.

Well Braun being 3rd in All Star voting probably means the majority of people don't give a rats behind about last year.

 

Cruz at $8 Million has been a crazy good deal this year and he is setting himself up to make some big coin this offseason.

well if Baltimore falls below .500 he could be a very big trade chip for them in July. that bat in Miller Park? YES PLZ

I think Cruz should HOPE he gets traded so Baltimore doesnt give him a QO
