  1. April 22, 2006 Brewers hit 5 HR in one inning. Guess the Reds manager.
  2. I agree that the lineup will be strong but I think the pitching may be weaker next year than it was to start this year. Given that I think we should punt on 2013 to be stronger for longer after that. The turnaround shouldn't take long but I think we could give up one year for 2-4 years in the future. I don't think this is a case where Braun and Gallardo will be starting to decline much after next year so in my opinion you don't consider trading them.
  3. I like our young pitching but I don't like betting on them for next year. I also don't really want to see Segura up until later next year.
  4. It all comes down to whether or not you expect to compete in 2013 or not. I personally don't and don't think we want Hart after next year so he is an expendable piece.
  5. I had to stuff the ballot for the wheats. So many other breweries make solid IIPA, BIPA's, Bocks, Brown Ales, etc. New Glarus' Wheat beers are really on another level, and I can count on a single hand the number of wheats I've had that I think are in the same ballpark as NG's. Yeah their wheats are really good. Vote for Black Top also. Probably the best dark IPA I have had. Most are not balenced well between the hops and roasted grains. I voted for Black Top, Black Wheat, D'man, IIPA and Imperial Saison. It's hard to get good Belgian style beers locally and their IIPA is really good. Has anybody tried the Saison New Glarus put out? I thought it was pretty good. Nice subtle fruity flavor.
  6. Hart and Ramirez are valuable pieces they could have traded. They may net more in the offseason though. Ramirez may or may not be around when we are good again and I doubt Hart will be. We need to be building for 2014 and beyond not next year.
  7. You are right. We are not trying to win so batting Gomez #2 isn't bad. There really is no reason to bat him #2 though. Also, the gap between those 2 OPS's is huge. Weeks OBP heavy OPS is much more valuable than the SLG heavy OPS.
  8. except where he has been batting in the order.
  9. Don't forget to vote.
  10. I would go with 9 but grading on a curve I would say 7. I was hoping for more trades but the ones we made were pretty good. Florida and Chicago sort of broke the curve in terms of volume. I still get the feeling we are trying to be a playoffs team next year instead of tearing things down a bit and focusing on 2014.
  11. I was really happy when Brian and Bill were talking about how our manager did more suicide squeezes than any manager in recent memory.
  12. That is the impression I get. He sounds like a solid fundamental player but lacking some physical tools. We'll see.
  13. Scouts & prospect-watchers seem to really like Gennett's swing, and the reports tend to agree that his defense has improved quite a bit this season. Good to know the scouts and MiLB fans like him. His stats look unimpressive. I know you have to take scouting into account with minor leaguers but I like to see some nice stats too.
  14. Don't forget the Astros but luckily they are moving to the AL.
  15. Yeah Gomez towards the bottom of the order is way more palatable. To continue batting him in the top of the order is insanity.
  16. I would feel better about his increase in wOBA being sustainable if he was developing plate discipline as opposed to just hitting the ball harder.
  17. If this was the Titanic, we struck the iceburg at least a month ago. Now is the time to decide who gets a seat in the lifeboat and who drowns.
  18. I don't see Segura coming up this year and getting any meaningful playing time. I would honestly be kind of surprised to see him up before next June. Then we would get an extra year of service time. He hasn't even had a full year worth of PA in AA let alone much time in AAA. Of all the SS in our organization he is probably the best but that really isn't a reason to bring him up.
  19. Who is our legit 2B prospect?
  20. Sweet. Good to see Kyles is gone. Now we will go 50-0 in the rest of the games we are leading by 3 or fewer runs the rest of the way and make the playoffs. World Series here we come.
  21. Can't be De Los Santos. He was just optioned and can't be brought back up unless there is an injury. 10 days I think unless there is some trade loophole.
  22. Fire the whole coaching staff while we are at it and bring in a new one for next year to develop with our young players next year and gear up for 2014.
  23. We should also examine whether we should reasonable expect him to continue hitting this well. Personally I don't think we should. Somewhere between this year and last year seems pretty reasonable which would be pretty good but not one of our better hitters.
