  12. Strong facial features? He's got the good face. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif It's funny because it's true. ~Bill
  13. What makes you think Doug Melvin has anything to do with this draft? I'm a big Jack Z supporter so I'm a little biased, but based on Melvin's track record with the major league roster, I'll give 99.9% of the credit to Jack and 0.01% to Melvin for "existing". Melvin didn't fire Jack Z, so he's got to get at least 0.10% of the credit. Add in your 0.01% and he's up to 0.11%... that's worth a mention, isn't it? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif ~Bill
  14. *Love* him. Academic All-American, too, at Notre Dame. He is like the definition of a Moneyball pick. I'm stoked about this draft, thus far. Obviously Rogers wasn't someone I would have preferred, but Jack Z. and DM have made up for it with some great picks in later rounds. Hopefully they can continue to work their magic. ~Bill
  15. Is this a draft, or a dog show? Indeed. It's so funny to read these scouting profiles after reading Moneyball, 'cause I can't help but picture the "fat scout" spitting out these sentence fragments while chewing tobacco and rubbing his gut. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif The scouts are underappreciated and they work really hard, but it's hard not to find fault with their English skills and their proclivity for treating players like meat. Good stuff. ~Bill
  16. I'm very excited by this pick. Me, too. ~Bill
  17. Patrick: Do you think Chapman has a reasonable chance to sign? This seems like a curious pick to me if they don't have some form of pre-draft agreement with him. ~Bill
  18. Great interview... wish I would have recorded it. He sounds like a really smart dude, very professional and mature, and that little 3 minute interview just made me feel a lot better about the choice. You da' man, Mark Rogers! ~Bill

  21. He went to high school and CC with Bevins, which is interesting. I assume the Brewers have a good relationship with this CC coach and/or high school coach. Also, one of the above articles notes that he was at Milwaukee's pre-draft workout last year. So this is apparently someone Jack Z has been courting for some time. ~Bill
