That's why fans/owners/etc. need to shut the whole thing down until the league becomes fair!  It's a joke right now, and has been for far too long.

Boycott the MLB!

The Big Leagues are the Rig Leagues.

Make MLB fair again.

None of the groups you mentioned, will ever do that.

Are you drinking?

That last sentence needs some work. 

The way they're playing, if I wasn't at work, I would've been drinking, too. Lol

Mr. Hook is gonna log a lot of miles between the dugout to the mound this year.  

If they don't start pitching a lot better, and soon, he better be on his way out of town.

What more can Mark A do besides find another co-owner with deeper pockets?

Like I've said before, Jimmy Haslem. He may be a tool, but he's surely not shy about spending $$$. 

[rickh150]

Woodruff for $18 million?

No that would be dumb and just making a change just to make a change.  Hook has earned a really long rope.

[Nola Beery]

We'll be fine when Adames gets back... Oh wait..💩💩💩. Never mind.  
Even if we still had him, he "might" not be able to pitch better than this clown car.

We're on pace to be the '24 White Sox of '25.

Rickie was an all-star.... Mediocre doesn't work for him

I'm also one who thought Weeks was a very average player. Was never a big fan of him.

If we get him back it's because he was released. He would have to suck something awful

Maybe but he is the least of my worries right now.

The starting rotating is by far the biggest worry.

In order to save Bauers' arm, I would like to offer my services as the mop-up pitcher for the Brewers for the remainder of the season.  I understand it will take up a bullpen slot, but I will agree to half the vet minimum.  I will not require any rest and will be available to pitch as often as needed, which as of now appears to basically be every day.  It's a bargain!

Sorry, I've already contacted the FO for the same roll. They seemed very interested.

Right. And this whole, "we have reinforcements coming" word salad doesn't real mean much when Hall and Ashby can't stay healthy or aren't very effective in a starting role. We have zero clue what Woody can provide. We're going to have to count bigtime on Myers, when he's healthy, to be a horse in the rotation. 

I don't know. Not seeing it. Bullpen looks like trash, too. 

We likely would be way more upset if the Brewers were losing games late or an error blew a game open they should have won. But these games aren't even competitive.. like.. at all. 

[Bulldogboy]

Murphy hiding behind his kids once again after that embarrassing performance is a shame.

The only reason he was an All-Star is Prince picked him.

.830 OPS the season before and ..818 during is 100% worthy of an All-Star selection.

I would classify him as a good player but quite a ways from a great one.

Good player, yes. Mediocre player, no.

[HarryDoyle]

I don't know what's worse. Getting hospital jobbed for three straight games or getting walked off three times to start the season like the Pirates did.

He would be the best player on this team by an incredibly wide margin.

[rickh150]

Why isn’t Quintana ready to pitch?  Was he hurt too?  Crazy.

For sure, if he were healthy. A couple of injuries (especially the ankle in 2011) really seemed to impact Rickie's career. I'll always wonder what if on that one--he was just going gangbusters that year until then.

[Frisbee Slider]

I didn’t like how they play guitar music after every strike at the stadium. Is that new for this year?

*shakes fist*

[brewmann04]

Just a horrible 4 games this team pitching is horrible the starters as well as the relievers have taken their lumps. But the offense struggled thinking that Jackson will need to sit for at least one game 

[Brian]

NY will probably be in the WS with LA, because of $$$$$. BINGO!

But kill the headlights and put it in neutral. 

We are in the weakest division in the MLB.  It is MIL, CHI, CIN, PIT or STL.  that is step ONE and will be our struggle for the next 6 months or so. 

 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

The O/U for the game tomorrow is...8.5.

Seems awfully low, but that probably means it'll be a pitcher's duel. Or KC will win 8-0.
