  1. I don't think they will shut Fiers down. I would agree, he is probably getting tired though.
  2. I don't think they will shut Fiers down.
  3. Yeah I have been trying not to poop on everybody's parade so I have avoided this thread as much as possible.
  4. At this point all the optimism reminds me of Homer Simpson following the flying pig.
  5. I would complain about Loe in that situation in a closer game but 6 runs, no way. If the Cards go 5-4 we need to go 8-1 just to tie. Brutal.
  6. After 4 years of fairly constant use my Eneloop batteries are dying on me. It bugged me at first but I considered how much use we got out of those things and they have paid for themselves several times over.
  7. Be well John Spartan.
  8. Draft status applies in the amount of years of control a team has. a team has rights to offer 1-year contracts for each of the first 6 years of service (unless bought out in extension), and that player cannot become a FA and take offers from other teams until the controlling team doesnt extend a contract during that six-year window, or they accept contracts all six years, but do not receive an extension following those 6 years. If Aoki was drafted the brewers would control his contract for each of the next 5 seasons. during each of the first three seasons, pre-arb years, the player gets a set contract amount, to which they can accept/decline. Once the pre-arb are done they get arbitration years, and depending how quickly they accrued time in the majors in their first two seasons, they could have up to 4 years of arbitration (Super2), as long as the controlling team offers it. If the brewers at any time decline to offer Aoki a contract he would then be a free agent. Most often what happens is those players get traded off so they don't lose arbitration/control years Aoki was not drafted, he was offered a free agent contract by the Brewers for two years and an option year. When Aoki ends next year, Aoki will be a free agent and allowed to take contracts from anyone, as long as the brewers have not offered him an extension that he accepted. Right, but has any of that changed since the new CBA went into effect? Cot's has crib notes on the previous CBA as well as a link to the full CBA.
  9. What would lead you to believe Bianchi has more power than Green? I wouldn't mind Bianchi as a backup infielder. I don't mind backup young players. Doen's't seem to be Melvin's MO though.
  10. We have an option. Not really sure what we will be paying him for the rest of his contract or what the option year will cost. Per Cots Norichika Aoki of 2 years/$2.5M (2012-13), plus 2014 option 2 years/$2.5M (2012-13), plus 2014 club option signed by Milwaukee 1/17/12 12:$1M, 13:$1.25M, 14:$1.5M club option ($0.25M buyout) performance bonuses based on games (75-150) and starts (100-140): $1.675M in 2012, $0.8375M in 2013, $1.0875M in 2014 2013 salary increases by one half of 2012 bonuses earned Milwaukee won negotiating rights with $2.5M bid after Aoki was posted by Japan’s Yakult Swallows 1/12 agent: Nez Balelo ML service: 0.000
  11. I think Peralta had Tommy John at some point.
  12. Unless that guy is subbing for every single player on the field that is way to much.
  13. I think Aoki would have taken more time from Gomez in CF. After Gamel got hurt, they used Ishikawa at 1B until giving Hart a shot. Only then did Aoki move over to RF. By then he was already taking the majority of starts in CF. Correct me if I am wrong but didn't Ishikawa get hurt before Hart started getting a lot of playing time at 1B?
  14. I would give the edge to Peralta over Rogers because I think he pitches more to contact and over the long haul will go deeper into games more consistently. I don't think we have a pitcher on Sheets level in our whole system. Gallardo, as good as he is, is not on Sheets level.
  15. I believe hey would have focused on a SS regardless of the injury to Gonzalez since we didn't have any long term guys at that position. I doubt they would have brought Segura up as quick though. Yeah Macha definitely was to restrictive on the running game. I think our manager handles the running game well if you ignore the bunting and contact plays. With our speed and power we should give up as few outs as possible since we have such a good chance to score at any time.
  16. The second link in post #15 gives run frequency for each base/out state. Runner at 3B with zero outs you score at least one run 86.4% of the time. Runner on 1B with one out you score at least 1 run 28.3% of the time. Runner on 3B with one out you score at least one run 66.2% of the time.
  17. That's not even funny. Not even a little bit. Just the thought of that even being possible makes me sick. That guy is a jackass and the sooner he disappears from baseball the better. Threads about him make me want to circumvent the cuss filter.
  18. I don't think Peralta will be eligible for the postseason.
  19. I know this wasn't started as a Peralta vs Sheets debate but seeing as how we haven't had a guy with as good as pure stuff in a while(leaving Rogers out) that seems to be the direction this will go. I don't think his slider is as good as Sheets curve. Not even close. Sheets curve was ridiculous. It looked like a ball rolling off a table withe the same arm slot as his fastball. I don't think his control is as good as Sheets either. I think his change is better than Sheets' though. I think his velocity is a tick better. He has a nice 2 seamer which Sheets never used much. I hope he can be close to as good as Sheets at some point.
  20. I don't think you were in the minority. I understand how it would get tough to read though.
  21. That is why he was our top prospect going into the year. I think that got marginalized a bit because our system as a whole was pretty bad.
  22. Some even wanted to trade Braun. Every single player comes up for trade talk at some point. That is why you have to address the merits of posts one at a time and not make sweeping generalizations. Even in a good year somebody is going to talk about trading players. Whether or not it is more beneficial to trade Hart and Ramirez before next year is still up for debate.
  23. A few thought the team needed a massive overhaul. Most thought we should trade a few guys to get young good players back in return.
