Isn't there equally a high amount of risk involved for someone with the injury history of Gray? I also think it's a huge risk to trade prospects for someone like Gray when some of those same prospects could be used to acquire a better talent. -
You would gut our system for Sonny Gray? Seriously? I am all for trading prospects for true game-changing talent but Somny Gray does not profile as more than a three starter on a playoff team in my humble opinion.
-
Agreed Briggs. We are no longer at the point in the season or the place in the standings that any roster spot can be unjustifiably wasted.
-
It's newsworthy in the same sense that Michael Jordan, Bo Jackson, or Deion Sanders was newsworthy. Two-sport athletes are a rare commodity in the professional word so it's interesting.
-
I think we should bring back K Rod just for nostalgia's sake
-
Is this Dillard collage available online or did one of you guys make this?
-
Hope they get him and pay a ton in prospects for a mid-level rotation guy!
-
I love Stroman and would be all about giving up significant assets to acquire him. Cost-controlled starting pitching with that kind of talent doesn't come around very often and I am far less concerned about his frame then I am about wasting our potential prospect trade chips on lesser starters like Gray or someone of that ilk.
-
Can we call Kodi Medeiros a bust yet?
-
I am open to trade anyone in the right move. That being said, the right move would include not only cost controlled starting pitching but someone who is an ace if we are to give up the likes of Brinson or Hader. While no one is untouchable you only move those two for an ace and not a middleling starter like a Gray or Happ.
-
What is this?
-
Totally agree with you.
-
There's a reason that Gray will likely be lest costly then Quintana. Just makes absolutely no sense to me to empty the farm for a guy who is unreliable or a number 3 starter.

I for one am not opposed to trading any of our prospects but am most definitely opposed to trading our prospects for mediocre talents like Gray who do nothing to put us over the top.
-
I most definitely say no. I do not understand the overhyping of Sonny Gray. This is the same guy who has been awful the past two seasons and was injured right?

If I recall 2011 we started the magic number thread right after the all-star break. Perhaps it's time to do so again? -
I don't mind trading prospects for a veteran difference maker under the right circumstances but for Sonny Grey? It seems like some on this thread are severely overestimating him in my humble opinion
-
Not to be "that guy" but isn't it a bit dishonest to help yourself to something that you didn't pay for?
-
Yuck. Haven't had time to actually sit down and watch a game in awhile due to work. My first thought is how can this possibly be a first place team?
-
Tony Fossas?
-
Thanks! How did you hear about this show? I think I vaguely remember it.

Where is this from?

With all due respect to those who want to forever hate Braun because of his positive test in 2011, I think that on the whole, Ryan Braun is and should be remembered for providing the fans with some wonderful memories of Brewers baseball at a time when the franchise was finally emerging from a quarter century drought. Without Braun there is no Wild Card in 2008 or NLDS win in 2011. I love the memories that he has provided me over my years as a fan and am rooting for him everyday he's wearing the Brewers uniform. I think that maybe it's a bit much to expect these guys to be perfect or to look up to them as heroes. They are guys who can play a kids game incredibly well. Would I prefer athletes to carry themselves with dignity and class; absolutely. They should strive for excellence. But baseball is a game (the greatest in the world of course), and it's a game played by humans who are not playing it to help society but to make money doing something they love. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, but I would much rather have my son admire Nobel prize winners, transformational thinkers, soldiers, and inventors than kids who put on a uniform and play a game. Bottom line is that I don't know Ryan Braun personally (so can't really judge him) and I don't need Ryan Braun to be perfect because what he does in his life doesn't effect me in my own. I want him to hustle between the lines and to try and win games for a team that I love. Anything else is just gravy.

But don't these organizations still gain something for doing this? I have worked at a stand for a charity before as well. It wasn't the most fun experience but that being said, I think that the term "one step above slave labor" for a few hours worth of work at a ballpark may be a bit overstretching it.
