  1. 1. 1992 Brewers. So you were a kid. One of my 3 favorite Brewer teams. Edit for clarification: Brewers offense was pretty good, 5th in the AL in runs scored despite hitting a whopping 82 HR as a team (!). Different world. Pitching-wise 1st in ERA, 2nd in ERA+. Fielding hard to say. They were pretty good though from memory (FWIW). Above average. I agree with everything else you said...good points. For some reason the first thing I think of with the early 90's teams is that Bill Wegman videoscreen (as in, projector technology) batting cage at County Stadium. Definitely my childhood era. When I was in grade school, one time in my dentist's waiting room I realized Tom Treblehorn was sitting there too. I chickened out on saying anything to him. I like the add of Bradley. Seems like a good versatile player on a low risk deal. I agree with others, & like the idea of a 4-man OF rotation for a lot of reasons. I do worry about our offense, & wonder if Stearns has anything up his sleeve for 3B.
  2. We've got em right where we want em! Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
  3. Need a post from Fatter than Joey and two live brew. Wow! Alright, this is my 'Rally from down 3 to win' post!
  4. He's also only 19, & listed at 6'3"/185. I don't think it's out of the question that he could add muscle & velo in the years to come.
  5. Reese Olson was looking sharp in relief until he took a laser-liner off his pitching arm. Looked like it got him right above the elbow, and he was in real pain. He came off right away, the trainer examining him on the mound was basically a formailty. Prior to that, he had a heavy-sounding FB working well around 94-95. Hope he's ok
  6. Lazar through 4 scoreless, FB has been operating 86-88, breaking ball (I assume CB?) 73-76. He's been controlling the breaking ball as well or better than the FB. So far he's been hit really hard once, an absolute bomb in the 3rd that was barely foul, almost flew over the LF foul pole. And I mean like 50'+ vertically above it. He got lucky on that one, but has otherwise been good this far.
  7. Heading to the T-Rats opener today! Looking forward to it & seeing Turang.
  8. Wow. That's the most glowing scouting review I've seen of Woodruff, by a country mile. Let's hope Prinstein is right!
  9. I remember that logo launch very well, and remember hating it. This is 100% anecdotal, but I also can't remember one person I knew that liked the new logo. That was a terrible decision by the franchise imo.
  10. I don't like it. Build something now instead of living in the past. If this team wasn't dog crap for 25 years, nobody would be as vocal about bringing the logo back but since it was the logo when the Brewers had their first (and basically only) success until recently, people seem attached to it. Cut the cord. 100% not true for me. I think it's a great logo because I think it's a great logo. No connection to their W-L record at any point. I also love the white with blue pinstripes, & agree with others about the road grays with script Milwaukee being awesome. I just think they had the logo & uniform look & feel nailed during those years.
  11. Good point on some of those other NL West parks. I remember when the Cards acquired Holliday, he also had a road OPS that made me skeptical he'd still be a force away from Coors. Some guys are just legit hitters, & I think Arenado's one of them.
  12. Both he & CC said it was absolutely nothing to worry about, & not an injury update. They said they wouldn't have had anything to report or say about it if they weren't asked directly about JN's status. The doom & gloom was mostly self inflicted by fans. I get being skeptical of injury reports (I am myself a lot of the time), but this was one that they went out of their way to clarify as a non-issue.
