    I live in LA and they don't look at it this way at all. They aren't competing with the other teams in the 2025 season, they are competing against historically great teams and dynasties. They don't care that it came from financial loop holes as opposed to drafting or however the '27 (do we have to start putting a 19 in front of that soon?) Yankees got so good.
  2. thebruce44
    Is the full list somewhere? These lists are always super subjective, but I would expect to see Turang and Churio on these somewhere.
  3. thebruce44
    Is your argument that any player on the team should be available to play any position when called upon or not play at all?
  4. thebruce44
    This makes more sense than how I initially read the argument. Despite what the advanced stats say for Sal, I could see him adding some power in the next 3 years and eventually hitting 20+ HRs in a season. Not to say the ball jumps off his bat like Braun's, but I would agree he is closer to Braun in tools than Collins. We have so many solid above average players in their mid 20s, its exciting to see this team continues to develop as these guys get to their 27/28 yo seasons.
  5. thebruce44
    IMO its stilly to compare Sal to Collins. One is 25 and a first round pick while the other had a breakout year at 27 as a 9th round pick. Besides their height, they are very different "prospects."

    The OQ is a great system for the Brewers, its like a franchise tag but cheaper than the prime NFL positions. If Woody accepts for next year at $22k, we know they can temporarily increase payroll and its not a long term commitment. Its pretty likely he would provide more than that in value.

    Taking away how angry the imbalance in MLB makes me, this has to be one of the best WS of all time.

    As someone who lives in LA near Dodgers stadium, 3pm during the workday is horrendous for local fans. I get it, you like to go to bed at 11 and get your 7-8 hours. And I have young kids who couldn't stay up past 8. But we do have the technology to record and rewatch, so just go to bed and watch it in the morning if that's what works best for you.
  9. thebruce44
    I must be in the minority. I LOVE this game of attrition and how it affects the rest of the series.
  10. thebruce44
    We already have a Peralta.
  11. thebruce44
    I could see the Mets, Dodgers, Yankees, and Phillies all lining up to give me more than that.
  12. thebruce44
    I know everyone rips on Ortiz's offense, but I'm not so sure Monasterio has the arm to get that force out at home or turn the DP on Betts. His defense may have saved 2 runs alone last night.
  13. thebruce44
    Its playoff baseball and good pitchers can dominate a game. It doesn't mean our offense is falling apart, we just ran into a buzz saw...and yet still almost stole a win. If we win tomorrow, in my mind its still a coin toss.
  14. thebruce44
    Pack it in boys, no sense in even playing the next games.
  15. thebruce44
    All drugs are unbanned and legal for the entire time from the 3rd out in the 9th until the close of the game. All of them.
  16. thebruce44
    If I take anything from the pitching strategy last night its that they don't view Q as a legit post season starter at this point in time.
  17. thebruce44
    How does that work with the pitch com now?
  18. thebruce44
    I can't believe Vaughn would be that expensive given his overall body of work. I would think they would keep Bauers based on his second half and relatively low cost.
  19. thebruce44
    I almost want to see Uribe and/or Megill get an inning tomorrow with the time off as opposed to throwing everyone after Quintana in G3.
  20. thebruce44
    Informal poll...would you rather have the 1 seed and guys going hard until the end, or the 2 seed with a well rested team. I know which I would pick.
  21. thebruce44
    My knowledge of baseball is stuck in 2019 when I had my first kid, but back then it was common place not to have a SP increase their innings more than 25 IP from the previous year. I feel like this started after Dusty Baker destroyed Mark Prior and Kerry Wood and I remember first reading about this practice when Dontrelle Willis was shut down his rookie year in the playoffs. We obviously have better analytics now that we did 10 years ago, so is there a new metric in place or best practice for building innings for young pitchers? Miz threw 97 innings in 2024. By old standards, that would mean he should have been shut down at 130 IP if we are pushing it. It looks like he is currently at about 123, but I continue to see internet posters talking about his post-season role. Shouldn't he only be getting 1 or 2 more starts? Have the Brewers addressed this?
  22. thebruce44
    I wonder how he would do in a closer or setup role. Especially with McGill on the IL.
  23. thebruce44
    Sorry, but how does being OCD effect this? It seems like this is just what every fan would want.
  24. thebruce44
    Are they staying in Chicago and getting poisoned by the hotel staff or commuting down each day from home in MKE? (not blue text)
  25. thebruce44
    I wouldn't mind.
