  1. If that were the case would the Packers have the sudden option to promote Becton first and block the acquisition, or is it an immediate transaction since the Packers already had the option to promote him?
  2. Even accepting Bauers leaves (which I don't think is a foregone conclusion), aren't the Brewers in a better position to just roll with rookies at both 1b and 3b seeing as they have four prospects about ready to come up also with platoon potential? If anything we need to figure out how to subtract. I agree with trading Turang after 2027. It'd be maybe a year too soon, but bring up Pena the second half of the year to acclimate him on the hopes he'll be ready the following year. That way you can trade two years of Turang, and I'd figure you could get a heck of a return to fill in whatever gap we may have.
  3. You can't point to his second-half performance without also pointing to his first-half. He's a one-tool player, and it's sure a great tool, but we're as sell-high a position on Ortiz as we're ever going to be. I don't think he's worth a high-end prospect by any stretch, but with MLB's new fondness for defense and bad teams needing ML-ready players he'd fit really well in a package with somebody else.
  4. I'm pretty close to Wilson. I feel a little shame for not going to a game this season. But I've been right next to the stadium and it's a great spot.
  5. Looks like I'm going to have to completely miss two of the games. That stinks.
  6. "How to buy crypto" is trending up on Google, though I wonder how much retail interest will be in the space this time around. I think a lot of people are sick of it. Still really tempted to gamble and try to hit on that big winner, but so far been pretty conservative with my % of that. Only Router and NetNet so far, and even those are already in the $2-30M range. Largely just a Tao holder right now. Didn't dodge this current dip but avoided the last one, so small profit so far but nothing of any significance. Last cycle DogWitHat and SPX were popping off and the memes to get, but I just don't see anything right now with much excitement behind it. Qauntum is popular right now, but they were allowing influencers to mine it pre-sale, so it all seems to be just marketing and nothing real. Maybe if Robinhood has another hype cycle I'll jump in for the nonsense, but otherwise whatever.
  7. Isn't Harrison's deal that he just doesn't try very hard, or is his talent just not translating to production? Wasn't Ditka the guy who said indoor stadiums were for roller skates and not football and did all his walkthroughs and practice in Detroit on roller skates?
  8. Cat is down to 6#. Maybe a gut thing, maybe kidneys. Dunno. Can't really pay $700/organ for the vet to try and narrow things down, either. Unlikely a curable thing, anyway. Eats roughly a can of wet food/day, which is better than before. On some steroids now which is probably the last bet. This is the good one of the two, too. edit: Stopped home today during work. Cat hadn't eaten much of the wet food from the feeding machine. So gave it treats which it gobbled up, greedily. Gave it more, at that, too. So took the wet food out of the machine and put the tray on the floor and it wouldn't eat that. Just moved the wet food from the tray to a plate and then it ate all that food, too. It used to get dry food, but I figured it would like wet food more (and it does, as it begs me for it in the morning). Is there something I can interpret from that which would change its feeding or food? edit: Well, nevermind.
  9. ABS and the Designated Hitter and Wild Card teams are gimmicks, too. It adds to non-playing events of interest and gives fans more to argue about.
  10. But we all knew they'd push to expand each Series, eventually. Probably try to push through those two additional playoff teams like MLB tried to do last time, too. They'll make sure the regular season means about nothing.
  11. Or just chewing innings when we've got a huge lead.
  12. Already happened when we moved from 145 games. A baseball season already takes too long, made even longer with added playoff series. And adding more and more teams to the playoffs makes the length of the regular season less and less necessary. We're already awarding the playoffs to teams who only manage to reach .500. >The idea of top seeds picking their opponent is intriguing. I've been wanting this for a while and have posted as much. It would really help to develop rivalries plus be a further reward for getting higher seeds. It should happen in all sports. I'm also in favor of a realignment more toward E/W of the Mississippi River, which would benefit players not having to fly as many miles during the season. No reason the Brewers and Twins or the Yankees and Mets shouldn't play each other more often. Really I don't see why we need Divisions at all.
  13. Well we appreciate your sacrifice of watching the remainder of the Brewers playoffs on your tiny screen.
  14. You know in that moment every player wants to be the guy, so it's such a selfless thing to do in that moment to take the walk so another player can have that chance. What's so amazing to me is the last few batters' abilities to recognize and actually take a ball when you know all they were thinking is the one thing they can't do is take the third out looking. I've been watching the inning replays over and over again and I'm still getting nervous.
  15. Well, he had more people to pass it to and an offensive scheme geared even more to him. I don't think it was GA, but I'd heard it said that they didn't like Bud for how strict he ran things, but with as relaxed as his predecessors were, then the players realized there was value to how Bud ran things.
  16. I can just see it, Parsons comes back in Week 8 and turns around a 2-6 team to finish 8-9. Miss the playoffs but the second-half turnaround is enough to convince Policy that it was all a matter of unfortunate injuries and the status quo is just fine. Plus the third-round tackle we pick up is going to change everything next year.
  17. Seems fair. It's two years of him, too. Plus what other choice did the Giants even have? They're a playoff team if they get even marginal play from him, I would think. And if Sam Darnold taught us anything, maybe it's worth the lottery ticket that it was just the coaching.
  18. To be fair to Gute, Jordan Morgan is obviously a project LT so we should only expect him to be decent in Year 5.
  19. He only needed his arm to come back to just average, but that he's not catching now says he's probably done. All very sad for a guy who was so close to being there. It doesn't mean we have to keep Contreras, though.
  20. Packers have a long history of being patient with HCs and GMs unlike the Browns or Jets. There's still good job security in a Packers position and that's attractive. And a GM wouldn't have to have his whole job ride on the success of a QB he drafted. Plus every GM in the League would be happy to pay Parsons what he's making now.
  21. What's the O/U on team rushing yards next week? 40?
  22. I get all that time off is going to mean a heck of a lot of rust, but I don't understand how he could have gone from being one of the best QBs in the League to the absolute worst. But since the Browns clearly want to tank for a QB, anyway, maybe their best payback is have him continue as the starter for everyone to watch.
  23. We just need to get out there and execute.
  24. Been trying to research how to use AI as a stock/crypto screener and evaluator using my own parameters. I'm a caveman when it comes to this stuff, so when I find a resource I like I'll have to do more research to explain the first resource. I've been using Anthropic but I've been running into some "I won't do that for you" constraints that I may switch to something else. Nothing bad, but sometimes it's more like arguing with someone as opposed to a computer program that's supposed to just do what you tell it.
  25. Yep. I recently did the same thing and got a small charcoal (+rotisserie) grill to compliment the pellet smoker and pellet pizza oven. Then realized that charcoal is insanely expensive to make grilling almost prohibitive. I haven't done it yet, but I'm going to be making my own charcoal. All the stuff is ready, so I just need to do it.
