  1. I don't like to see that kind of velocity at all, but what is Narron doing to get AAA hitters out with that horrible velocity? Jeff Weaver throws a lot faster with better stuff and he can't get an AAA hitter out worth a darn. Whatever Narron is doing in AAA, I think can translate to success in the majors. Can't a 2.77 ERA in Nashvile over 52 innings translate to a 4.80 ERA in the Major Leagues over the next 52 innings? I consider that a pretty conservative estimate and a 4.80 ERA would be a lot better than Dave "Big Inning" Bush. Is anyone here going to argue that they'd rather have Dave Bush in the rotation? I hope not.
  2. Yes that's because I got a strike last night for not doing anything wrong. This would probably be better discussed over PM.
  3. I never said anything about "waxing". That must have been someone else. Check your records. You can PM me with the results if you would like.
  4. If you read the chat again, this was never mentioned. We were talking about mowing lawn. And that is honesty. I offered to mow a member's lawn after work to help out. I'm deeply apologize if that was misunderstood.
  5. As long as he keeps his OBP around .370 I'm not worried. Power always comes later. It will develop.
  6. I seriously wonder what the tipping point is for Melvin and Yost to give Branyan a shot. When we are starting Craig Counsell at 3B when you have a 100 point higher OPS available at a low price/risk, what is stopping them?
  7. Anyone know what velocity that Narron tops out at? Does he even get close to 90 mph? I'd say if he can hit 90 mph, he'll do fine as a fill in starter for the Brewers and possibly get a rotation spot next year. On that note, is anyone in our system going to be in our rotation next year? I think there's a good shot looking at the group of pitchers we have as options right now in the Major Leagues: Sheets - who will leave as a free agent Gallardo - who won't return for the start of the season Suppan Parra Bush Villanueva McClung We are going to have to sign a free agent and/or tap into one of these guys next year to pitch every 5 days.
  8. Are you serious? Get this guy in Nashville then. Screw Huntsville.
  9. I think that would be a great idea depending on how he's doing at the end of the year. I want Jeffress to be a starter though, not a closer. We have Pena and Aguilar with enough potential as closers. Jeffress's value as a starter would be 10 times higher.
  10. Since our postseason odds are at about 10% right now, that's a long shot.
  11. Yes, but that would equate to below average defense in CF. I don't like that.
  12. It's amazing how a 2 week stretch can change people's outlook so much. I liked Escobar at the start of the season and I still do like him. He's going to be a quality shortstop and hopefully for the Milwaukee Brewers. At least he better or the autograph I got of him won't be as special. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif
  13. So does anyone give Melvin credit for bringing us from a 60 win team to an 83 win team in 5 years? What GM would have done better under the same circumstances?
  14. Now you're getting greedy! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif Would that be 1 in 4 odds?
  15. Which has happened more in history? An 18 K game or a no hitter?
  16. If he can prove that he can get guys out in the Pen, then I have no problem with giving him a shot, although Torres probably has first priority due to experience.
  17. What are the odds of that? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif
  18. That's what I've been meaning to say, but I thought I'd offend someone or something. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif
  19. Doesn't Pena have a pretty long scoreless inning streak going?
  20. He's got that 97 mph fastball though. Scouts, GM's, and Coaches all love that. They all think they can turn these projects into gold. So we'll see.
  21. I'd like to give Luis Pena a shot in the bullpen if we got a chance to DL Gagne.
  22. Can they both throw in the mid 90's?
  23. Well the good news is that Mike Jones is only 24, but the bad news is that he's probably going to try his luck with another team's minor league system sometime soon.
  24. Yes, but it's hard to ignore those statistics. They're pretty sick.
  25. Where do you see the similarity between Narron and Shouse? I have no clue because I've never seen Narron.
